<prompt> Human: I moved into my apartment in August. When I toured it initially, there was water damage on the wood floors leading to the balcony and it makes it impossible to open the balcony door due to the wood swelling. However, the realtor said it would be fixed before moving in, and put this in writing. Upon moving in, it was not fixed as promised. It is now November and our landlord still has not fixed the issue, but Im still paying the full amount of rent. I feel that this is not fair since I am paying for a balcony apartment, but I have no access to the balcony. We have complained multiple times, but with no results. Does anyone know what my options are here how to continue?  <response>: When I rented I would write out anything that needed to be fixed before I paid next months rent on the back of the current months rent check. That way when it was deposited I had scan that they had seen the list when they endorsed the back of the check and a time stamp of the notice I had given them
