We dispute Mr*** recitation of the facts and his overall characterization of the events that occurred surrounding his move out. Consistent with local law, we gave Mr*** the option of being present for a pre-move out inspection. He initially declinedIt was only after we
convinced him to have one done, did he agree. However, per his signed election, he indicated that he did not wish to be present during that inspection. As such, we went ahead did the inspection on the date that we provided him. It was only after he vacated and returned possession of the apartment did he request that he be present during an inspection, which defeats the purposes of a “pre-move out inspection.” Since he had already vacated, we declined his request that another inspection be completed We have provided Mr*** with all of the photos and evidence of the damage that he left in the apartment, along with the evidence of our costs to make repairs. We are confident that the charges that were assessed against his security deposit are valid and well substantiated. Nevertheless, as a customer service gesture, we have already agreed to reduce the painting charges in half. He agreed to pay the balance of $101.92, last time we spoke. We see no reason to waive any additional charges. Thank you
We apologize for any confusion during your move out process. Since your account was never sent to collections, and because there is currently a $0 balance, there shouldn't be any negative impact to your credit score. If you see differently, please let us know and we would be happy to further...
investigate for you. Your Statement of Deposit is available to view online through your resident portal. This gives a breakdown of any balance due to the Community and also offers options on how to take care of a balance. It was also mailed to the forwarding address provided to us by the primary resident. Again, we apologize for any confusion you experienced.
Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because: I am compliant and willing to pay this debt as long as the credit collection is removed from my credit report. I am trying to buy a home and this business is making it very hard on me, especially when I had to move out because of their doings. I don't think you guys realize that I had to pay all of the moving costs myself because you allowed a criminal to move in. I agree to pay if the collection is removed immediately.
Sincerely,
[redacted]

Nima, Thank you for writing to us. We apologize for the way the communication with the office has made you feel. Your lease expired August 26th, 2017 and your account went onto the month to month rate after. This is outlined in your lease documents. It is my understanding that at one point in time, you were interested in transferring into another home. However, the apartment you desired had already been rented. At that time, you informed us that you wanted to possibly renew or wait until another desirable home became available and were communicating with the [redacted] office. You spoke with a [redacted] office member on November 9, communicating that you planned on vacating and transferring into Marina 41, an Equity Community. We are aware you emailed your notice to vacate today after your conversation with the Community Manager of [redacted]. You stated you would be making your rent payment as it has not been paid.You are responsible for providing a 30 day written notice to vacate and your balance due is accurate. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Hello [redacted],
We want to thank you for alerting us about the plumbing problems occurring in and around your home. We apologize for the...
inconvenience this has caused you and your family and appreciate your patience while we take care of the problem. Although we have cleared the line each time there was a reoccurrence, we recently hyrdro-flushed the main line as well. We have also scheduled a plumber to send a camera down to help identify any further problems. We are working with our vendors to ensure that they clean up after they complete their work. Thank you for taking the time to share your concern.
Regards,
[redacted] (community manager)
Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (2000, 7, 2015/08/27) */
(The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.)
The company is taking the necessary actions to resolve the sewer issue.
The manager told me before I left that they were legally obligated to split the deposit refund between me and my roommate. Thus we left our forwarding addresses as required. This did not happen, they not only did not split the check- they sent the full amount to me with his name also on the...
check (which the bank will not accept). In the lease, multiple options are listed- direct deposit, addressing check to a co-resident (like a family member in my absence), and sending each to forwarding addresses. Any of these options would be fine with me to correct the mistake. This late in the game direct deposit or writing it to a co-resident of mine would be best. They have told me they have no other options to give me, which is blatantly against what the legal terms say in the lease.

Our manager [redacted] B. has explained to [redacted] that she is not eligible for our Service Guarantee and; therefore, she will not receive a 10 day rent credit. A 2 day credit was offered as an act of customer service. In reference to the Acknowledgement and Release form, it is our standard form that we require the applicable residents to sign prior to a credit being applied to their account. No further offer will be made to her and her roommate regarding this matter. Should the residents wish to accept the concession for the 2 day rent credit then both residents will need sign the Acknowledgment and Release form and return it to our leasing office by October 5, 2015.
