Resident 2016

12/12/2016

I moved in because the unit was spacious, great wooden floors and a good deal. What I found out about the building horrified me. Filthy unsafe building. Bed bugs, roaches and mold. The carpeting in the hallways has not been replaced in 40 years and reeks of urine and mold. The owners refuse to fix the place up, the hired management can only do so much. Electrical has not been updated ever. Most outlets do not work. The new glazing on the kitchen sink and shower started flaking as soon as i used them. Getting something fixed takes months of you screaming at them and not paying rent to get their attention. The unit 306 had a pipe burst and flodded 206 directly in the lobby. No one answered the phone. Some good Samaritans in the building had to break into the vacant unit to hit the shut off valve on the kitchen sink to save 206 and the lobby be completely inundated. The people living in 206 have lost half of their possessions to poor maintenance and neglect by 17725 manderson llc. The owners have 3-5 buildings in palmer park and they are all in the same condition. The current owners who received the buildings as an inheritance have not kept the buildings up and are squeezing everything out of the buildings before they become condemned and they sell them off to a company that would put 8-10 million in it. They live in grosse pointe and do not care for the lower class. The building is paid off so what do they care? They are getting 20k minimum a month per building minimum. The basement was a biohazard, full of trash, hotspot for roaches until they city had forced them to clean up. It took 12 long dumpsters to clean out the basement. Management refuses to let in detroit government rental inspectors to come in as the building is in bad shape and would become condemned in an instant. Do not trust them to give your deposit back, ride out the last month. They are slumlords by definition. Update: Smoke detectors all chirp and the ones that don't are out of battery life. This is very dangerous. Has lead pipes, water can come out brown/red/orange/yellow. I wake up every morning with bed bug bites. I have never had them in my entire life.
