💥 Myth #4: Every apartment has decent water pressure… right?

Reality: Nope. Some older buildings — especially walk-ups — have painfully low water flow.
It seems like a small detail… until you’re shampooing with a drizzle.

💡 What to Do:

✔️ Test the water yourself
✔️ Run multiple faucets at once
✔️ Ask about the building’s plumbing system

👉 We test what listings never mention.
