Apt Manager
By
I have lived in my apartment for 8 years. The apartment manager gives me a hard time about any repairs in my home ex: they will only pay for the plumber to come out once for the kitchen problem and once for a bathroom problem. Any other service calls i need to pay for. They have never changed my carpet or even had it cleaned even though i reacently learned that they changed my neighbors carpet and even put down tile in the dining area in her apt and she only moved in a couple months before i did. when i told the manager they shower doors were falling because the person they hired to redo my restroom did such a horrible job she stated that it was a common problem and that they had already ordered new doors. that was 8 months ago still no new doors. now they sent me a letter saying everyone had to clean up oil stains in the parking structure or they would clean it up and charge me. i have not always had the same parking spot in the 8 years that i have been there so i do not know that the stains are only mine 100%, still i went down and did my best to clean them. the next day they "cleaned" my spot and left it looking exactly the same as i had and they decided to bill me $50 and they gave me 5 days to pay! do i have to pay this? in the 8 yrs i have lived here they have never cleaned the parking spots. PLEASE HELP!!

No, you live in America… That’s the great thing, you won’t be judged by your nationality but by the facts. Being Russian has nothing to do with it! |

Don’t you want the added security of lighting? I would appreciate renting from a property that improves the rentals. If during installation the manager used your electricity for an outside light that lights up your porch, then it should be your responsibility– but if it is a light that is far away from your rental, well, that’s a different story. Do you have anyway to control the light, such as a switch? Can you ask management to put in a switch for you? |

I do not understand why it is my responsibilities to pay for that light. I do not have a porch. We have six units (apartments) on each floor. I can not control that light because she made by pass my dimer switch. |

Are you familiar with the “Landlord History Report?” You can always leave negative feedback about your landlord on this report. This will let other tenants know about the problem. Then, in the future if someone pulls the report on your landlord they will see your comment about how they are stealing electricity from their tenants. I found the Landlord reporting page: You can click here to Leave Feedback on Your Landlord |
