In one other post - so bad it is turning into a lawsuit....wonder how it ended' Let me tell you.
Tuscany Villas was served small claims papers for $4900.
I was suing them for my rent money back, deposits, move costs, etc.
Subsequently, they filed a countersuit (which I was never served on) for $4000 for my 19 days rent in August plus all the rent concessions back.
BRING IT ON!
I moved out August 19, 2006.
Court was so backed up that it got pushed out to May 2007.
I was patient.
Hadn't heard a word from them in all that time.
Yet on Friday, May 5 their attorney called me and asked if I wanted to settle.
Obviously they figured they couldn't win or you wouldn't settle.
I told them I wanted my $600 deposits back, plus $400 for my movers.
I signed their release form and within 5 days had my money.
They got nothing.
The key is DOCUMENT EVERYTHING.
Like another post said to call them - bad idea.
The law and your lease states that it has to be in writing.
They have 7 days to rectify the problem.
After 7 days you have to write another letter requesting repairs.
If they don't rectify it you can send a letter stating that you will be moving if repairs are not made withing x number of days - you choose the amount of time you want to give them.
They've already breached the contract.
I gave them another 14 days to no resolve.
I moved, sued, won.
Don't take their crap!!! Feel free to email me if you want help

Good for you! I'm so sick of these big companies walking all over people just because they know most people don't have the money to go to court.
