WARNING! THEY WILL SCAM
TAKING ADVANTAGE OF YOU. OK get ready for this one. My girlfriend is currently renting from this property management company (RESE) and she has had a few bad experiences with this company. From the outset, the management company seems OK right, especially after you see their replies to the complaints and ratings. With this company, the tenant is always wrong. Trust me. Even in the worst case scenario. Just read their responses and replies on BBB. They will respond in a way that makes the tenant out to be the bad person. This company will never takes responsibility for anything, ESPECIALLY if it involves MONEY, actually, in all I've read, all instances where the company took money for no reason, charged fees no reason, and more, they always came up with some excuse to keep the money.
And forget it, you think it ends there, now that COVID-19 happened, they seem to have used this pandemic to scam over even more people. As of now, the only way you can see a person is if you come to their office and hand them money. Any other reason, they will not see you, they will tell you because of COVID-19. The way it seems after me and my girlfriend dealt with them, is they are just pushing people into email communication. It's seems like an easy way to do what they want and use COVID-19 as a way to cover up their schemes. I mean, look at all the stores and restaurants to give great customer service. And yet this company won't budge, unless you personally deliver money. to them. Even through email, they will not communicate well with you, they will not help you, NOTHING. You come to their office, they will answer the door and tell you they are only accepting money. If there is any problem, they will not let you speak with anyone. What does that tell you? They don't care about anything but money. And I personally feel bad for those who have the bad experiences with this company. I've researched the company and I would classify them in the same group as the hackers who create fake emails to steal your money. Good luck trying to get your money back. Same with these people. You will not get your security deposit back and if they charge you any amount of money for any reason, they will not fix the matter.
DON'T EXPECT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT BACK. Trust me on this one. I know companies like this. They will come up with something. Trust me. I think one guy's experience I read he received like $40 dollars back, which was the most out of all I read. Now if that were me, I would more rather have somebody come to my door and kick me in the balls, because the feeling of my balls hurting is not as bad as my headache when after dealing with this company. $40? Please.
My girlfriend moved in about a year ago. She has 2 children and she wanted to make sure the apartment was clean and in good condition, as would any single parent or even anyone. They confirmed everything was clean and ready to go. Well, when she arrived, this is what she saw: Walls were not clean, stove and refrigerator was not clean, the paint on the walls and in other areas were chipped, holes in the wall from somebody looks like they punched the wall, the key lockbox is still on her doorknob. They failed to remove it, never had the holes fixed, and haven't responded to any of her maintenance requests. In fact, when you visit her online payment portal, all the requests mysteriously disappeared. And now, they have her security deposit. Now what do you think they are going to do at the end of her lease? I know, they will keep it all. But she has photos and video of her move-in, and when the time comes, she plans to actively fight against these scammers. At my work, I am apart of AARG, and I have free legal advice and lawyer. I've used it once so far, saved almost $4000 in lawyer fees and court costs. They will even go to court for you if you need. But it's safe to say that with all her photos and videos and proof she has, dealing with them will be easy as cake.
Also, my girlfriend last month paid her rent by dropping off her rent check at the office on Friday. The office was closed. However, she has done this before. So, before and after dropping off the check on Friday, July 3th, she called the company, texted them, and even emailed them, telling them she dropped off the check. Now rent is due on or before the 5th. They opened the office back up Monday, July 6th, and sent her late fees. I told her not to pay anything. Just try to imagine an excuse they could give which would make them right, and their actual excuse was worse. They just told her she was late and they would not remove the late fees. She even has a bank statement that states her check was cleared on July 5th. So payment was made July 3rd, cleared in her bank on July 5th, but the company refuses to remove the late charges. So if I were you, document EVERYTHING, and PAY NOTHING. Don't let them scare you and scam you. Because that is exactly what they do.
