STAY AWAY FROM FOSTERS LANDING!!!! Scary, scary people hanging out in the parking lots. Foster's Landing kept my entire deposit to cover "cleaning, repainting, and carpet shampooing" and sent me a bill for more even though I never actually moved in (I was too scared). Having just started going through a divorce, I was anxious to find a new place. Fosters Landing has a nice, clean front office and a price tag high enough to limit the residents to professional like myself. Or so I thought...

My lease started August, 2008. While still living with friends, I began to move in a few boxes here and there over my lunch breaks. During my delivery trips to the apartment, there was often a loud, bizarre, and kinda scary looking crowd of a dozen or so people and someone who appeared to be their "supervisor" hanging out in the parking lot. They definitely did not keep to themselves as I made my way past them and I had no idea what to expect.

It was so bad that after dropping just a few car loads, I decided to not move in at all and remained a nomad until my lease ran up. I kept my stuff in storage except for the desk and a half-dozen boxes that I d already moved in.

HERE S THE KICKER! In February of 2008, I moved out my unopened boxes and turned in my keys. I was asked if I d like to schedule a walk through to look for damage. I told them I never even moved in (and why), so that shouldn t be necessary. After all, what kind of damage could there be since I never moved in' Big mistake! Two days later, I got a bill. Seems that the cost to clean, repaint, and shampoo the carpeting exceeded my entire deposit amount and they needed me to send more money. I left about 5 voicemails with their management in Tempe, AZ asking how this was possible since I never lived there. The only call I got back was on my office phone at the crack of dawn way before anyone gets to work. I then called the property directly, told them I never moved in and wanted to know how come I OWE money and I m not getting my deposit back. I was met with a long Ummmmmmmm , followed by as many BS excuses as imaginable. We have been in the we aree going to have to look into that stage for a couple weeks now.

One other thing - there is dog doo-doo everywhere. Nobody cleans up after themselves.
