.... Landlord tenant disputes? Everyone in our apartment complex is getting kicked out of our homes. They are turning them into condos and they have gone out of their way to make us uncomfortable. We have had water turned off from 10AM until 8:30PM three times in a month, did not have any outside lighting for over 2 months with 2 rapists in the area. They had a guy come paint new stripes in the parking lot at 3AM, waking me up. They dug up the old parking lot starting at 6AM. They have dug holes all over the complex looking for the water pipes so they could convert the apartment pipes to individual condo pipes. They left these holes uncovered for 1 month. They closed 2 out of 3 pools at the begining of the summer and kept them closed for 2 to 3 months. They even closed the work out room. We walked around the complex for 2 days and got close to 100 signatures on a petition thats states everything they have put us through and that we are upset.
There were people that refused to pay rent this month. My lease is up at the end of the month. I paid rent but then placed a stop payment on my check. I found out that no matter what is going on, you have to pay rent so I cancelled the stop payment after 5 days. They just now found out even though I have been talking to them about it. I asked them to run the check back through but they won't and they tell me that I owe late charges. Plus, since 14 other apartment complexes here in the city are turing condo, you can't find a place to live. I finally found a place and they will not hold it for me, because they know they can get someone in there sooner. So, I had to put $2,000.00 down to hold this other place and now this complex tells me I have to give them 30 days notice in order to move out. I have never posted my problems on here before. So. sorry but I just wanted to ask if anyone knows what I can do about the apartment situation.
THANKS!
