Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:everything about this situation is terrible. You guys come up with the silliest excuses and it doesn’t make any sense. I was supposedly very high on the list to have an apartment and I couldn’t be moved buildings. That’s ridiculous to the highest degree. I was always told that I would have an apartment on a certain date and on that date everything changed. This entire company is terrible by all means! Property manger, corporate and construction between all of them nobody knows anything. That just baffles my mind! I will NEVER do business with this company and would not refer anyone else to do so  I’m awaiting my deposit that I was told should come this week if not, you guys will be hearing from me personally!
Sincerely,
[redacted]

Mrs. [redacted] came in and paid for an eye exam and a contact lens evaluation. Those exams give you a prescription for eye glasses and a prescription for one brand of contact lenses. In previous years she was in contacts that were included in a coupon we offered. This year she wanted color contacts...

that were not offered in a coupon which was explained at visit. The doctor gave her a prescription for clear contacts in one brand and an addition brand for color contacts as requested at no additional charge. The doctor documented the patient also wanted to try an addition one day contact lens and she would try them for one week and return for a recheck . At that visit if she liked them and wanted an additional prescription it would cost 35.00 additional. She was very upset and I did give her the option to just keep the prescriptions she liked and she voiced her dissatisfaction which I apologized and told her in previous years she had only had one prescription for the charges. I feel we went over and beyond to satisfy Mrs. [redacted] and she did leave with two contact prescriptions and her eye glass prescription . The contacts that she paid for came in the next day and we have documentation that states she was notified. I regret she felt we misrepresented our coupons however she requested color contact lens that we don't offer through a coupon. Respectfully,[redacted]

See attached.

On January 5, 2016 Ms. Burton left a message on the customer service voice mail at the corporate. She did not provide the property name
or correct contact information. On January 26, 2016 Ms. Burton called again and it was determined her...

complaint was for Stone
Canyon in Amarillo, TX. I requested move out documentation from the property manager who
provided pictures of the apartment in question. After reviewing the Final Account Statement for
accuracy and the enclosed pictures I spoke with Ms. Burton. I explained after review of the
pictures on file she was responsible for those charges. We should have required her to pay this amount since her security deposit was to be forfeited in accordance with the early buyout agreement explained below. I advised her she could make an appointment with the property manager to review the pictures on record for her move out. She declined and said with all that she paid to move she should get her entire deposit back. I reiterated her buy out fees did not negate her responsibility for damages and cleaning required. We have made every effort to satisfy Ms. Burton, however we have standards required by residents to clean their apartment and repair/replace any damages to the unit.
SPECIAL PROVISIONS for Addendum for Early Least Termination
Lessee must fulfill a minimum lease term of six (6) months before consideration to this option. Buy out termination fee equal to two (2) months rent by Lessee to Lessor and forfeiture of Security Deposit.

Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 7, 2016/01/29) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
This is incorrect. I called no less than 6 times. I left ONE voicemail with my phone number as previously stated. By my not saying which complex it was is irrelevant. I deserved a phone call back regardless. The other times were messages your corporate office receptionist took. I did not leave incorrect contact information 6 times, I assure you. She told me she would get someone to call me ASAP and that never happened until January 26th when I made it very clear that I will call every single day if I needed to.
Between myself and Wilhoit Properties, I am the only one who has made any effort to satisfy the other. Especially by paying your ridiculous 3 months rent within 1 month. As much as I hated to, I still paid it all, on time, because I signed a piece of paper stating I would do so. I kept my word. Your "standards required by residents" to clean their apartments was not gifted to me prior to my move-in date since I moved into a filthy apartment with a variety of broken items that were promised to be fixed (and never were). Let me reiterate myself to you and say that I left that apartment exponentially better than when I moved in. I've lived in many, many different places and not once did I fail to receive my entire deposit back. Your response to my complaint is partial truth and I am astounded by this. I was told the day I signed my papers that I would receive my entire deposit back by your apartment manager, as long as it was nothing more than "normal wear and tear." Not only did I abide by that, but I also deep-cleaned that apartment entirely better than what it was when even I moved in.
Final Business Response /* (4000, 9, 2016/02/02) */
FROM THE BUY OUT AGREEMENT SIGNED BY MS. BURTON: Buy out termination fee equal to two (2) months rent by Lessee to Lessor and forfeiture of Security Deposit.
This means that the deposit is not refundable. I appreciate the fact that Ms. Burton feels she cleaned the property better than our standards.
The fact remains that the deposit is forfeited as part of the early buyout since she failed to complete her lease.

Yes I would like to be able to move into my new apartment and well as have some kind of discount on the rent for the inconvenience.

I am rejecting this response because: Your leasing agent never contacted me to get any more information. She waited until the last week of August to ask me for a child support order for my child that doesn’t even revive child support at this time because her...

father is and will be incarcerated for quite some time to come, and that was only because I called in to ask what was the hold up. Also the leasing agent knew I had to be out of my current place of residence and due to being on housing assistance with the housing authority I have to go by their rules. The only reason I sent the email was to ask how my deposit would be refunded. [redacted] told me that since I couldn’t provide the child support court order in time that it would automatically deny my application and I would then get a refund. I also have lots of call  logs where I tried over and over to get the application that I supposedly signed stating my deposit would be forfeited. I even went to the office and was given a blank application and told that I could not have a copy of the application, that is was policy. And when I asked for such policy. No one could provide it. I was also asked to leave or law enforcement would force me to leave. None of these dates on this response are true. I have all my calls logs from the villages of west lake and none of them are calls coming in to me. I had to call and always got the run around.  They would have a leased apartment right now with a guaranteed deposit from the housing authority the 1st day of the month but wanted a court order from my child’s father that is incarcerated to prove she supposedly lives with me all the time. My housing voucher should have been all the verification they needed to let me move in. Since it is government assistance. I want my money back. This company is not honest. 
Sincerely,

[redacted] and [redacted] rented a Low Income Tax Credit Apartment from Wilhoit Properties. The program does not allow for full time students and both tenants agreed they were not full time students. After verifying their status...

prior to recertification it was found that both were full time students. This willful violation of their lease caused us to ask them to leave.
After their apartment was vacated it was prepped and made ready for a new tenant. A new tenant occupied their unit on [redacted] Rent charges through this date were included in the Final account statement.
We were not provided a forwarding address so the statement was sent to their last known address which was the unit they rented from us. After 14 days our accounts are turned over to a collection agency. Once the account has been turned over, the account must be paid to the collection agency.
This debt is verified to be correct and the full amount due is expected. We will mail a copy of the last notice sent on [redacted] to the Consumer's address listed in this complaint.

Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:All walls and ceiling should had been painted and retaped whether they were painted blue and green.  I did stay an additional two months as my home was not ready for move and Wilhoit Properties accepted my payment at all...

times and I did refuse to sign a three month lease as I didnt want to pay for months I wouldnt be there. and they were trying to force me to sign a three month lease when I only needed it for two months.  I disagree with the stove, refrigerator and sinks being cleaned as I cleaned all of these before I moved. The stove and refrigerator were very old with stains before I moved in.  Also, they fail to mention the infestion of brown recluse and the popcorn ceiling materials falling on top of the food and furniture at all times.  I am a very clean indivudual in lieu of how they are trying to make me look.  This is a money grabbing company and they are trumping up false charges. Many complaints with the neighbors as the way they are being treated.  Also, this company cannot keep a property manager as they are too difficult to work for.
Sincerely,
[redacted]

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
Yes I did only pay [redacted] because that's what the staff at the office told Me that I owed. I understand that it there policy to file for eviction for no or full payment, but when it's do to what there staff told me to pay. All I asked for was a week to come up with the difference and was told that it was to long to wait . Yet the mistake was on the company/staff not on me . I will be paying the remainder + rent this weekend.

Rent is due and payable the 1st of each month in the amount of [redacted] each month. The property has only received a total of [redacted] since May 1st. The total amount still due is [redacted] with late fees. Mr. [redacted] is responsible for making his rent payments on time and in full.

A Regional Manager did contact Ms. [redacted] and met with her in person in Birmingham, AL. After the meeting, Ms. [redacted] referred the matter to her attorney so we cannot make further comment.

We believe that this matter is resolved and all parties are satisfied.

Dear Ms. [redacted],
I would like to reiterate that you are more than welcome to contact the cable/internet provider of your choice. As discussed, the choices of cable/internet providers in the area of which the property is located are very...

limited. With the choices available, we feel that we have made the right choice with the provider that we choose to partner with, and we will continue to offer a great service to our residents. Please keep in mind that should you decide to use another satellite provider, you will need to follow the guidelines as detailed in your lease agreement. In addition, as mentioned during our conversation, there are many benefits choosing our cable partner. 1) You will not be locked into a long term contract, since you can give 30 day notice at any time. 2) There isn't any additional credit check. 3) You will not be charged a cable deposit. 4) You don't have to be home when service is needed. 5) Right now you can get over 60 channels for only $25 per month.
Our records show that a work order was made to check out a noise, and though it's not a brand new refrigerator, it was in good working condition. I also had our Regional maintenance supervisor take a look at it. We do our best to provide great costumer service, and hope to continue such. If there are any additional maintenance issues that need to be addressed, please put them in writing and send them to the Community office so that we can take care of your needs.

Unfortunately, this is a brand new property which is still under construction and we can’t control the date changes with construction.

We have a work order for September 8 for her ac not cooling properly. We called our ac vendor out to repair, but put in a window unit before he could come out. The vendor came out and put in Freon. At this point, I thought the ac unit was...

working fine. According to Ms. [redacted] it was, but she called again the Sunday before Labor day and her ac line was leaking. Spencer came out and I told him to clean up the water and blow out the line. Ms. [redacted] has made only partial payments on her electric bill which caused her bill to increase each month. We did ask her to bring all of her bills in so we could review. It does appear that her electric bill did increase slightly during the time of the repair. As a good faith effort to resolve this matter, we have offered Ms. [redacted] a rent credit of $125.
Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 13, 2015/12/22) */
This company cares nothing about their residents. Me and my 4 children are without electricity because they refuse to take responsibility for not making the repairs in a timely manner. My children and I will be without electricity for Christmas and the only thing that they are willing to do is take $125 off [redacted] rent meanwhile sticking me with a $576 light bill which is no fault of mine and no electricity.
Final Consumer Response /* (2000, 15, 2015/12/23) */
My complaint has been resolved with this company.
