After review of the records the business provided, of which I have continually contested since the beginning of my communication with the leasing office, I am noting that no record of my first month's rent (Nov. 2013) was recorded.  However, I have proof of payment for Nov. 2013 rent which was $775.00.  I am currently in the process of getting photo copies of requested money orders.

Ms. [redacted] was a resident at our apartment community, [redacted] apartments.  She vacated her apartment on September 26, 2016.  Her security deposit accounting was completed and sent to our corporate office where the check was cut and mailed for her refund.  This was done within the...

45 days allowed by [redacted] State Law. It was mailed to the address provided by Ms. [redacted].  Ms. [redacted] called our office in December stating that she had been out of the country, but she had returned and she did not yet have her refund.  We confirmed the address and put a stop payment on the original check.  She called [redacted] again in January, 2017.  She said she had not yet received a check and provided us with a different address to mail the check.   Our accounting department has processed the request.  We will resolve this immediately.  We have been trying to work with Ms. [redacted].  Her original check was mailed to the address she provided.  We will send the new check to the new address she provided us.  Please let me know if there are additional questions.

Review: My complaint is against Park Properties Inc, located in Charlottesville, VA. This company owns [redacted] in Lynchburg, I rented an apartment from [redacted] from Jun 2010 to Dec 2013. I moved out Dec 25, 2013. The Virginia Residential Landlord and Tenant Act says Landlords have 45 days to refund a tenant's security deposit. I should have received my security deposit refund by Feb 15, 2014. As of today Feb. 25, 2014, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY SECURITY DEPOSIT. The [redacted] office staffed submitted paperwork to their corporate office on Jan 20, 2014. The Corporate Office has had plenty of time to process a check payment to me. Park Properties Inc. has NOT COMPLIED with the VA Landlord and Tenant Act to refund security deposits within 45 days.Desired Settlement: I want Park Properties to refund my security deposit. They have my forwarding address on file. I want them to be accountable for being late by paying PENALTIES for not following the Virginia Landlord and Tenant Act.I want a record with the Revdex.com that this corporation DOES NOT FOLLOW the law when it comes to refunding security deposits. I want all future customers to see that Park Properties Inc. does not follow the Virginia Law.

Review: My lease started on Nov. 1, 2013 as a new tenant. I paid my rent faithfully and on time. However, on March 8 I received notice that I owed $1, 981.72 due to non-payment of rent of $775/mth. I immediately went to the leasing office and provided all copies of money order receipts. Management informed me that their records indicated that I did not pay for the months of Jan., Feb. and March 2014. Management made copies of my money order receipts and I was informed that management would bring their records in compliance with evidence provided of my monthly payments for Jan., Feb and March 2014. However, I received a call a month later and was informed that the leasing management had misplaced the copies they had made of my receipts. I returned to the property management office with all my payment receipts for the months I have lived at the Vistas and management made copies of all my money orders for the entire time I have been in residence. Again, management assured me that my records would be corrected. However, on June 6, 2014, I received another notice stating that I owed $2, 314.49. I returned to the leasing office once again. Management ([redacted]) informed me that there was nothing in my files. Once again, I provided evidence of my payments and copies were made of my receipts my the management personnel. They also made a copy of my Incentive Receipt because they were unaware that my monthly rent is $775 and not $845/mth. Management informed me that they would look into it and get back to me. I received another notice on June 16, 2014 stating that I owed $2, 351.94. On this notice they stated that my rent was $845 not my actual rent of $775. The notice also added a late fee of $50 when my rent was paid on June 2, 2014 at 3:42 pm (I wrote the time down). I went back to the office on June 17, 2014. I spoke with [redacted] (management) about the June 16th notice. [redacted] instructed me to ignore the June notice and that they were concerned about the Jan. and Feb. 2014 rent. [redacted] advised me to contact the money order company and find out who cashed the money orders for my Jan. and Feb. 2014 rent. I called the money order company as instructed. The system was automated and I was only able to receive information on when the checks were cashed and not who cashed the money orders. Jan. 2014 rent was paid on Jan. 3, but was not cashed until Jan. 8, 2014. Feb. was paid on Feb. 1, 2014 and was not cashed until Feb. 3, 2014. I returned to leasing office on June 18 and provided [redacted] with that information. [redacted] made note of information I provided and stated that she would speak with property manager [redacted]. I received another notice on June 24 in reference to the rent for June being late even though this was discussed with [redacted] as previously stated in this complaint. I returned to the leasing office on June 25 and was told by [redacted] to ignore another notice if I received another notice. [redacted] told me to once again call the money order company to get photo copies of my money orders to see who cashed them.Desired Settlement: According to the money order website, I will need to pay $24 to get a photo copy of one money order and $15 per photo copy of other money orders requested. I'm a recent grad and out on my own for the first time. I work and pay my bills on time. I keep records and notes on all my transactions and other essential information in my calendar/journal. To have a company such as Vista Apartments/Park Properties Management Company to not have records (let alone accurate records) or lose records on a tenant is inexcusable. And then repeatedly harass that tenant on what is now a monthly basis and more than once during the month is poor costumer service and very stressful to that tenant. I want this company to bring my records in compliance and stop sending me delinquent notices when my payments have never been late.

I want the company to pay for the photo copies that they are requesting (they are the ones who have lost or misplaced my information and just not information on my monthly payments but some of my initial information/forms that were signed and received at time of initial rental agreement and lease was signed). I have repeatedly provided them with information requested since this situation began in March 2014 and some of that information they repeatedly lost. I want a letter in writing informing me that my situation has been resolved (my records of payment are clear; I owe no late fees; my rent is $775/mth and not $845). I want them to give me a receipt every time I go to the leasing office and give them my rent.
