In a new online platform, college students can share their experiences living in certain areas and create a space of accountability for landlords.
Rebecca Cazanave is a recent college grad and cofounder of the website "The Lowdown."
"There are students coming in from out of town at a state or signing contracts for places they've never seen because they need a place to live," she told FOX 13 News. "If you have a terrible roommate, terrible landlord or mold situation, that affects your ability to succeed in school," Cazanave said."I've heard stories where somebody's toilet is partially falling thru the ceiling above them and taking three to four weeks."
The resource goes beyond a simple rating system, even breaking things down into categories such as price and cleanliness to give students a holistic view.
