Renters Beware!
From: -Anonymous-Date posted: 4/10/2004
Years at this apartment: 2002 - 2003
I Arranged to rent my apartment while out of state, before moving to Michigan. Upon arrival, my apartment was not ready and I was told that another unit was available. Before signing my lease, I asked if I could get out of my lease if my job ended and I was told yes, at worst it would only cost me 2 months rent. My apartment was located beneath one with wood floors and the noise was horrible! Everynight I heard a child crying, his plastic wheeled toys, and his running on the floor; or the woman fighting with her boyfriend. My front door was rusted, but they replaced that. Bugs used to crawl in because the weather stripping at the bottom of the door was missing, and it was always drafty in the winter. In the spring the storm drain backed up and soaked the carpet. I asked them to shampoo the carpet but they did not. I also asked them to fix the soggy and crumbling drywall above the door (another water problem) after it needed to be fixed for the 2nd time, and they did not. In the end I asked them if I could vacate my apartment early, as I had a job offer in another state. The manager said yes, just provide a short note in writing. I did, and then I received a very threatening letter from their lawyers threatening to sue me for not only the rent, but damages equal to the rent if I left before my lease expired! These people are not to be trusted, the apartments are old, and I would not recommend this apt community to anyone!
