On July I bought a town home which is managed by ABC Property ManagersOn October I was sent an email with a PDF attachment stating that I needed to store my garbage totters in my garageI corrected the problem after the first notification was sent and then on November I received another email with a PDF attachment stating that I failed to fix the problem and that I needed to show up to a board hearing on November That same day I emailed Theresa [redacted] and let her know that I had fixed the problem the first time I was advised which was merely weeks agoShe confirmed via email that inspectors go out every week and that by time the association get the inspection report and get the notice out to the resident a week could of gone byShe let me know that she would let the "board" know that the problem has been fixedUnderstanding that this was resolved I did not show up to the hearingOn December I receive another email stating that the "board" decided that I was being fined $It has been months since I bought my beautiful home and because of the "board" which I suspect is composed of the residents that live in the same community they are already making this a negative experience for meI have read numerous reviews on this company, all negativeI wish I would have done my research about who managed the community before purchasing my home and highly regret doing so
The residence that Mr [redacted] owns was built in the 70'sAs a result of the ceiling in the bedroom falling, it was necessary to have it inspected to determine the reasonAt first it was felt that either the ceiling fan in the bedroom was a contributing cause, if it was improperly installed, or if there was heavy items stored in the attic directly above the bedroomAfter a inspection it was determined that the contractor was not certain why the ceiling in the bedroom fell, but they noted the ceiling in the living room is beginning to show signs of saggingWe arranged for a structural engineering firm to inspect the sagging drywall ceilingIt was their opinion that in the 70's builders used few nails and an adhesive to hold the drywall in placeIt appeared that the lack of nails and the adhesive had dried out which caused the failureWe then had to contact the associations attorney to confirm the Association was responsible for this repair as we have had no previous ceilings fall in this complexWe have the proposals from contractors to make the repairsThe bedroom ceiling must be replaced as it fell and the rest was removedThe living room ceiling is saggingIt was recommended by two contractors that we reinforce the sagging ceiling and use drywall screws to hold it in placeSince that ceiling is already sagging we have decided to replace it rather than repair it as a safety measureWe expect the Board will approve the proposals in the next few daysWe will advise Mr [redacted] as soon as we know it is approved and who will be doing the workWe consider this ceiling collapse a red flag regarding the ceilings in the homes in the rest of the complexWe are going to find a remedy from the structural engineering firm and making the needed repairs to the rest of the ceiling to prevent further collapsingWe are sorry for the delays but this is a unusual situation that needs to be handled correctly as the safety of the residents is at stake [redacted]
