Yeah, the managment does try to steal your money

Me and a friend put $400 down as a deposit with 2 seperate checks this past spring. The Alexan managment seemed very friendly and the units are great. They?re right across from Coulon Beach. The friend I was moving in with actually use to live there about a year prior with another person that was on the lease. I found a beautiful house with sweeping views of Lake Washington and Mercer Island a day later that was not too far away (Bellevue). I went down to the office 2 days later to cancel the proposed lease and pick up the checks. You have 3 days to cancel a contract in the state of Washington. The manager said we couldn?t get our deposit back but she would cancel the "lease". I made it very clear to her that I knew the laws and that I work with contracts on a daily basis. She told me that she had to call corporate office, blah, blah. There was no incepted lease since we were not moving in for another month and a half. I was very mad and told her that I would have my lawyer contact her very soon if she did not give me the checks back today. I drove away and then about 5 minutes later she called my cell phone and said to come get the checks.


What kind of child?s play is that' She was trying to blatently steal money from people that were not even tenants there yet. Earn money the real way, with hard work and quality service. Attempted scamming just put this review and others on the internet. Is it really worth it' I figure she used the "legal" means of stealing the person?s money that just posted before this.


They?re nice places with no parking. You get your assigned spot plus your garage parking and a space in front of the garage. The parking is horrible but the units are nice. If you have 1 to 2 cars max then this is ok. If you have more than 2 vehicles or you have a boat ontop of that, forget about it.


Don?t let the crooked managemnt steal your money. Are times really that hard where a property management group tries to swindle money from prospective tenants' Wow... You don?t even have to be a tenant to be scammed here.
