I was in desperate need of a place to live and the rates were so low and they paid for my water I jumped at it. Plus they had a $99 move in. However when I moved in I had to scrub my entire apt because it was filty. There were dead roaches everywhere and not the small kind. The walls were dirty the window in my kitchen didnt close properly so any creature could have came in and out as they pleased, but it did come in handy when I locked my self out once. I didnt own a Vaccuum yet but you can be sure I bought one that week. The entire residence has a roach problem. My sink pipes broke more then once and I had leaks, and THE BUGS!!! I aquired a dog midway through my lease and paid in full the pet deposit which soon after they began charging "fines" if you didnT pick up after your dog. Which I was okay with. I thoguht maybe it would get people to start picking up after their dog, but when they slapped a fine an me I was pretty mad because they charged you by the pile and it was untrue. But I couldnt prove against them and they have no cameras so they were guessing as well. I paid it and never had a problem about it again.
Plus now I am being hit by creditors for damages they cant explain or prove. They have "no idea" who has records of what was exactly damaged. They show no record of a pet deposit or security deposit. I cant afford a lawyer right now so I have to find other avenues on my own. So my mistake there was that when I left I didn't do a walk through so I am at fault there, its in the contract. There was drug trafficing all around me and the cops came on a regular basis. Needless to say this is not the kind of place I intended for my daughter to live.
The maintenance staff is way over worked and the place is just all around dirty. They are shady people with no good intentions and you can never get answers unless your looking to lease. The management is horrible and always changing. I was here for 9 months. In my last few months a resident..a resident, whom I never found out who, started a newsletter with news from the neighbors warning you about things the management had been doing to them and the legalities of them. I was surprised at some of them and some not so shocked. Needless to say you would be in for a whopper of a ride if you sign with them.

I am in the same boat you are in. They charged me for things that were damaged in my apt. that I called City of Fort Worth on them to fix. Like cracked flooring and carpet that continued to pull up from the floor.

Their pat answer to everyone that complains is to just move, which everyone does. The first of the month there are plenty of moving fans generally moving out, not that many moving in.

I know what you mean about being "blamed" for things that I did not do to the apartment...I have been slapped with over $2,785 in "fines and damages", with no proof, but alas...it is now on my credit report...I figure F*CK em...I gave enough of my money over to them, they are not getting anymore! Luckily, I have managers at my new complex that I have been at for the last 2 years that "knew about" the Vaucluse...word of mouth is your WORST ENEMY, or your best friend...they put me in with no problems...and I have CONTINUED to not be late with a rent payment!
