Resident 2010 - 2011

7/9/2012

I want to share my experience with future residents and even current residents, please read carefully. I lived here for a year and had several issues with Huntington Park. A big issue for me was the residents: R1. The previous resident of the apartment I moved into committed suicide. Also my neighbor who I shared a patio shot himself in the head. (2 suicides in a short period of time in just a small part of the complex). R2. I called the police 4x. Once for domestic abuse(later the wife harassed me for calling the cops on her husband). Twice for fights on the property. Finally for child abandonment. R3. A small girl(probably 4yrs old)was abandoned on the property. My fiancee and I had to watch the girl while we waited for the cops. Finally after hours the girls mother, a resident, came looking for her. R4. The residents underneath us would smoke pot and blare music full volume and throw parties on their patio all night. (This would happen at least 4 nights a week. I made several noise complaints but nothing was resolved) Noise was a huge issue at Huntington Park. N1. Verbal arguments between residents was a common event. N2. Domestic verbal fights was also very common. N3. Music and loud parties often disturbed our nights sleep. **The biggest issue and worst experience Ive ever dealt with was upon moving out of Huntington park. Half way through my lease I upgraded my one bedroom to a two bedroom. Both had brand new carpet (but different color and fabric/style). When I moved out of my one bedroom I received a bill for $800 to replace the carpet which I paid without argument, I had a potty trained rabbit but maybe she had accidents... When I moved into my two bedroom I bought a playpen for my rabbit that I placed in the kitchen, she was no longer allowed on the carpet. Months after I moved out of my 2 bedroom I received a call from collections that I owed Huntington Park another $900 for carpet. Huntington Park tried charging me for excessive pet stains again! First defense the manager said was "well your history of your other apartment"....They also said "this could have been avoided if you had done a move-out walk through to prove the stains otherwise." The pictures they used as evidence were of my first apartment: complete different color and texture of my 2 bedroom. After I said I could prove the pictures were not of my 2 bedroom but (by getting a sample of the carpet of my 2 bedroom and comparing it to the supposed pictures of the pet stained 2 bedroom carpet) they said "we can no longer help you, your file was given to collections"! When I called Huntington parks collection agency not only did their agent yell at me but the carpet pictures disappeared, our file was without the pictures! After weeks of unanswered and returned calls we finally got copies of the pictures. We did a professional comparison from a carpet company and "in their opinion the pictures Huntington Park provided of the pet stained carpets in the 2 bedroom did not match the receipt of the original carpet of my moving in in the 2 bedroom." Wow fraudulent pictures! I asked myself their motivation and I remember both apartments had brand new carpets and thinking "awesome I am defiantly renting with this place." New carpets is an excellent advertisement or selling point when showing an apartment. My fiancee and I do not have a problem taking responsibility for our mistakes evident in paying my first carpet without issues but Huntington Park crossed the line; fraudulently producing pictures and tampering with our file. I hope my story is helpful and can save one for the horrible and tiring experiences I suffered from living in Huntington park!
