Having lived in a bunch of older buildings, for me the A #1 thing to look at is windows. Make sure they open, close, lock, that the glass isn't broken, or other anomalies and make sure they all have screens that are in good shape. After that would be what the others have said about electrical.

For those interested in the WPA posters, I buy stuff from this site every once in a while and they have a good selection of those and other vintage advertisement reproductions:

I used to get boxes from Borders or Staples until I discovered that several alleys in the city I live in (Ann Arbor, MI) had huge recycling bins filled with collapsed cardboard boxes next to the dumpsters. I must have taken hundreds in the past few years. I'm sure other cities have something similar.

I too know very little about John Mayer, but instantly knew it was his place. Maybe it was the guitar.

I too am a fan of the computer nook. Where did that slim cabinet of drawers under the computer desk come from? I've been looking for something like this to use in place of the wobbly legs I have on a similar desktop.

I thought if you were on a sub-lease the people you were subletting from were responsible if you flaked out. In that case, I don't know why the landlord would bother with a credit check. Maybe it's different in California, but if not a sub-lease might be the way to go.
