Don't Think of Renting Here

I lived here for 5 years. It was alright in the beginning, but then they got new management that were terrible. They towed resident's cars from their assigned parking spaces. We were buying a house and didn't want to commit to a new lease. They nearly doubled the rent for a month-to-month lease! I paid to have maids clean the place & had the carpet cleaned before I moved out. They charged me $1,080 for cleaning, replacing the carpet & painting. I took them to small claims court and won. Then they sent me to collections to recover $1,452 for their legal fees!

did they really try to charge you for their legal fees after you defeated them in small claims court?

Yes, they did. I got a call from a collection agent yesterday who threatened legal action and to put it on my credit report. I did get them to take the charges off today.
