McLaren Hill Homes

This is a rental agency. We had applied for a house of theirs and were approved. We were initially told that the house would be ready in a week and it was ours if we wanted it. Due to the fact that there were contractors in the house we had to wait a few days to actually look at the inside of the house. When we went to look at it the company gave us a contract to look over and we were supposed to meet up later after dinner. When we met up after dinner they asked for the contract back because they had decided it was going to take 3 to 6 weeks to get the house ready. The company assured us the house was still ours if we wanted it and refused to take any part of the deposit or rent to hold the house with the reason they gave being that it was not necessary and their word was good. When I called them 4 days later to confirm that we wanted the house and we were definitely willing to wait for it they had suddenly disappeared off the face of the earth. Finally after 3 days of getting no response to phone calls, emails, and text messages they sent an email saying we were not approved with no other explanation. When asked for clarification as to why we suddenly were not approved I once again was unable to get any kind of response from them. These were very shady people that obviously cannot be trusted and who have absolutely no business ethics. I was also later told that they had decided to rent to a friend for less than what I was willing to pay. This does not seem like a good way to do business.
