Move When You Say or Be EVICTED

This is a well-maintained, apartment complex with a staff and management reasonably responsive to repair issues. However, there are several problems. The first is extremely nosey staffers who disrespect residents by talking about them pejoratively behind their backs, spreading gossip about them and discussing residents non-public, private information (including financial) with each other and outsiders who have no need to have your information. Another problem is horrible parking. Don't move in with a nice vehicle unless you're prepared to have it seriously damaged by vandalism and negligent neighbors. The next problem is move out dates. Even if you're clean, quiet and your rent is current, if you're one to stand up to management (in other words, you don't think they're doing you a favor by taking your rent monthly and allowing you to live, in peace, in your unit and are willing to challenge their behavior, violations of your consumer and tenant rights and their desire to have you make them your god) and you don't move out when YOU say you will, they will EVICT you. They have a high vacancy rate (many moved out in droves in the last several months because of poor resident relations) but EVICT good tenants for not moving out on time! I say beware.

I've lived here for a year and a half and have had no problems. And I see *nothing* wrong with a landlord expecting you to move out when you contracted to... they muts have your apartment ready for you for the date when you said you would move in, so why is it so shocking that they expect you out on the date you said you would move out???? You should have spoken with them if you wanted to extend past your move out; I'm sure they would have been reasonable

I thought, after over two years at the complex, they'd be more reasonable with me, too, but they were not. It was shocking because I've told landlords I was moving and wasn't able for one reason or another they didn't toss me out as long I paid rent. I didn't even KNOW I could be evicted for not moving when **I** said I would. The owner lost NO money by my staying past my projected move date (and cashed every rent check with no problems). I paid them for the ENTIRE time I was there, up to the date of eviction and left owing them nothing. It cost them more to put me out than to allow me to stay. AND, they had to return my large deposit with interest. Makes no business sense to me. Must have done wonders for the books. But, I hated the place by the time I gave my notice and being tossed into the street a few months later gave me the impetus to leave the area for an entirely different (much WARMER) part of the country and I've done quite well since. So, what they meant for evil, God turned to good and making better and better (since it also led to getting another major albatross off my shoulders, too--one I may have had a life of hell with). For those who love it--at least right now--just protect your vehicle from vandals, get the roach traps that kill the EGGS, not just the roaches, get an ionizing deodorizer for the food smells, learn lots of Spanish and don't let the mildew eat your clothes and you'll LOVE Suburban HELL. Oh, and it helps if you're a card carrying, flaming, far left liberal who enjoys insincere banter with tall, sun-starved, painfully thin, somewhat effeminate, red-headed hypocrites and his gossipy, busy-body staff that spreads all of your business around the complex!
