I normally don't leave reviews, but I feel it's necessary to share our experience to help others make informed decisions. Renting from this landlord started off fine, but quickly turned into an exhausting experiment in patience and trust. Upon moving out, we requested a breakdown of charges deducted from our deposit -- which is a basic legal requirement in California -- and to this day, no receipts or documentation have been provided.
The landlord gave multiple verbal explanations that contradicted themselves and even admitted to things over the phone, only to backtrack in writing. He now threatens collections while still refusing to send any dated receipts or proof from licensed contractors, which the law clearly requires for certain charges.
This process has been nothing short of frustrating. If you're considering renting here, be very cautious and document everything. Based on our experience, communication was manipulative, accountability was lacking, and transparency was nonexistent. 1 star is too much! read more
