in april of 2010, in order to help out a childhood friend who could not find another place to live because of his criminal background, i moved into the address listed above which I rented from prestige realty. Prestige was the only place who would rent to him as they are known for there low rate properites. 2 months after moving in my friend was again in trouble and I was left at this address by myself until april 8th 2012 when I knowingly moved out, as I had informed prestige thru conversations with them when I had moved in there was things noticeably wrong right away: The carpet had stains, the kitchen floor was stained badly and needed to be replaced, the towel rack in the bathroom was hanging off the wall, the silverware drawer didn't stay on track and constantly needed to be adjusted along with the closets in my bedroom and the windows were rotted out and needed to be replaced. At first when i contacted them about many of these things they would send people in to fix them. However in many cases they would not be fixed correctly and would be left in worse shape than before. an example of this: I was left without a silverware drawer entirely for 6 months after calling them to fix it and they took it with them to repair and when they finally brought it back it was completely unuseable!! so i was without a silverware drawer for 20 or the 24 months I lived there. In the summer of 2011 I sent them a letter detailing these things and asking to have the windows replaced as I my heat bill was over $200 every month and I was still freezing. I never even got a response until I contacted the city,and an inspector forced them to replace the windows. After this, prestige would not fix anything and when I moved out made up a bill charging me for everything they could including many of the things I asked them to repair upon moving in. On top of this I did not receive there bill until may 31st 2012 which was well after the 21 day deadline from when i moved out on april 8th 2012. Almost everything on their bill was entirely false and fabricated, and my grandmother who ran apartments for over 30 yrs attempted to reason with them. In june I left them a message stating I would send a payment, which I did along with a letter stating my position. I sent them $100 dollars which was more than they deserved and the same day they sent their bill into collection. I have many letters documenting these things and all travesties endured there and will provide them upon request.
