I worked with AREM property management company for over two years…read moreas a board member of Copperhead Camp HOA.

Extreme Negligence and an Absolutely Horrible Experience…read more If I could give AREM Property Management zero stars, I would. My experience with AREM was not simply a case of poor customer service or a maintenance request taking too long. I spent approximately eight months living in an apartment with serious mold and water-related problems that were not adequately addressed, while having nowhere else to go and no financial means to simply move out. My father and I were essentially stuck living in those conditions because we had no alternative. There were repeated problems with water intrusion and attempts at remediation, yet the underlying issues continued. At one point, the bathroom ceiling leaked again despite previous attempts to address the problem. I documented the conditions, communicated with management, and repeatedly tried to get the situation taken seriously. Instead of being able to simply leave an unsafe living environment, I had to continue paying rent and living there because I could not afford to relocate. Imagine knowing there are serious problems with the place you're living in, wanting desperately to get out, and realizing you literally have nowhere else to go. That is what this situation became. I spent significant amounts of my own money on testing, documentation, temporary solutions, and trying to establish evidence of what was happening. I spent countless hours communicating with management and trying to get the situation resolved. Eventually, I had to seek outside legal assistance just to get help dealing with the situation and obtaining a release from my lease without penalty. And even after everything that happened, I was left dealing with the financial consequences of having paid rent for approximately eight months while living in conditions I believe should never have been allowed to continue. This wasn't a minor maintenance issue. This wasn't a situation where I simply didn't like the way management handled a repair. My father and I were left living in poor conditions for months because we had no practical means of escaping the situation. A property management company has a fundamental responsibility to maintain safe, habitable housing and to respond appropriately when serious water and mold problems are reported. In my experience, AREM failed to meet that responsibility. I have documentation supporting my experience, including photographs, videos, communications, testing records, remediation documentation, and financial records. The most upsetting part is that this could have been handled differently. Problems can happen in any building. What matters is how management responds when those problems become serious. In my experience, AREM's response left my father and me dealing with the consequences for months. I would strongly advise prospective tenants to thoroughly research AREM and specifically ask how they handle serious mold, water intrusion, habitability issues, tenant displacement or inability to relocate, and reimbursement for rent paid during periods when a property cannot reasonably be considered habitable. One star is generous.

As far as renting goes, I've had much better experiences in different towns. Durango seems to be an…read moreanomaly in how they can rent to people. They don't seem to clean up much for you when you move in. During the move in I had to call and ask them to clean up when there was trash still left in the apartment and a big mess in the kitchen. I don't think they even stopped by in between renters. The house was beat up but the expectation sounded like they wanted you to leave the place in better condition than you found it. They treated us more like inconveniences than customers. Another thing that was awful, coin operated laundry in a home. Shocked. If you can find better I would take it, but you better plan ahead if your looking to rent in Durango.

My concern wasn't the issue itself, it was the initial response. When I first contacted your office, I was essentially told, "It shows as posted on our end, so we don't know what to tell you." I would have appreciated hearing that the issue would be investigated right away, especially since enough time had already passed. Also, when a customer provides feedback, the appropriate response is to thank them, acknowledge their concerns, and let them know you'll take the feedback into consideration, rather than continuing to defend how the situation was handled. It's not professional and it's not a good look.

I was relocating from Indiana and was quickly finding out that the housing market in Durango is quite competitive. That's fine. Usually money talks. Well, not with these people. I offered to put money down on a rental property I viewed online. It fit my family's budget and was within walking distance to work. Well, they would not take a deposit. They said their policy was every applicant had to "walk through" the property before they're allowed to put down a deposit. That's an issue because I was in Indiana. So I told the lady (who I had been in constant contact with over several days) that I would be driving out to Durango to see the property and put down a deposit, and that it would be in two days (It's a 1300 mile, two day drive). So, I load up the family and we drive all the way to Durango, Colorado. I arrived at their office the morning I said I would and they said, "Oh, I'm sorry, we took a deposit on that property yesterday... but here is a more expensive one you may like." - Are you kidding me? I told you I was driving from INDIANA you assholes. You KNEW i was coming here Thursday morning to get the keys...WE DISCUSSED THIS!!!!!! Their reply was "We emailed you that it was rented" -- Mind you they did, late in the day the day before when I WAS SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE OF BFE KANSAS WITHOUT CELL SERVICE!!! - a friggin throw-away e-mail at the end of the business day. But that's not all. This other "property" they tried to push on me was out of my budget and I told them that. Their reply was "This is the price the Durango market dictates and it's non-negotiable" -- Which is dirty because they were playing on the fact they KNEW I had come over 1300 miles for a place and they figured I'd take anything at any price. I knew this so I did not bite. Come to find out when I returned to Indiana that THEY DID LOWER the price on that very same property!!!! So basically "non-negotiable" only applies if you're between a rock and a hard place that THEY have put you in on purpose! AND, because of these dishonest, uncaring, dirty, ruthless people I had to decline the great job offer. I didn't have the time or money to keep the family in a hotel until something came along. We had to go back to Indiana. I would not rent from these people. They can not be trusted and they are proven liars with their "can't be negotiated" price policy since they DID lower the price of the second property. Use the pricey lesson I learned (money blown on 4 hotel nights, gas, driving, time, food, etc.) and do not trust these people. AGAIN, DO NOT TRUST THESE DISHONEST PEOPLE. You've been warned.
