My name is ***********************, I was a previous resident/renter of a townhome owned by OnQ Property Management. I was living there with two other roommates beginning on July 8th, 2022. With an original lease start date of June 8th, 2022. After being denied a tour of our specific unit for weeks prior to move in, OnQ allowed us to tour the property 48 hours prior to our lease start date. To our surprise, there were maggots in the fridge, house smelling of urine, large holes in the drywall, doors broken off the hinges, etc. We have images of all damages noted (see attached). We called the property management team and notified them of the state of this home. OnQ was completely surprised and said they would fix the damage BUT would have to change our move-in date 30 days to July 8th, 2022. We did not receive any reimbursement or compensation for this last-minute notice. Upon move in we had tons of maintenance issues in which we wrote maintenance claims for. We have documentation of all maintenance completed. At the time of move in we paid a security deposit of:$3, ****** (75% Refundable and 25% Non-Refundable Admin Fee).Thus, expecting a refund of $2, ******. Our lease came to a close on July 21st, 2024 in which we deep cleaned the home, repaired/painted over any holes we made from picture frames etc., and hired a professional carpet cleaner to ensure all floors were up to standard. We went with the inspector at the final walk through who vocalized that our home was the cleanest he had seen. Today on August 9th, 2024 we received an email from OnQ outlining that we will only receive a refund of $427.69. The breakdown is as follows:Security deposit: $2,****** Work Order Charge Move Out Repairs: - $462.94 Paint touch up interior: - $1,500 Total refund: $427.69. A similar situation happened to our neighbors (a previous tenant in this townhome community) who also disputed their claims.Business response

In March of 2024, I have reported a horrible smell from the dishwasher which I do not use. A technician has been sent out 4 times to review the issue. I was charged 5/3/24 charged $145 and 5/29 charged $172.23 additional amounts to my rent. The first two technicians said there was something in the drain and also that the garbage disposal was not a disposal and it was only for aesthetics. I continued to ask the property manager to fix the issue as the smell is horrible. In May a plumber was finally sent out who advised the dishwasher was installed incorrectly and there is a high low device that is missing which is causing the sink to drain into the dishwasher. He took pictures of the black moldy water, the rusted out baskets in the dishwasher and the filter that is clogged and no longer usable due to the sludge in the dishwasher. He ran the dishwasher while he was here and stated he is going to recommend a replacement as the unit is not safe to use and is contaminated. This issue has been ongoing since I moved in in October 2023. The house smells like dead bodies. I have to run a cycle daily with vinegar and baking powder due to the sink draining into the dishwasher. The property manager sent another tech out afterwards who stated it was just something in the disposal - the disposal they said is not a disposal. The smell continues and the property manager does not understand the sink continues to drain to the dishwasher causing the smell. When you use the non-garbage disposal is ***** back up all the black sludge from the dishwasher. They think this is clearing and fixing the issue when this is clearly a missing high low valve/drain that is needed so that the sink drains to the actual drain and not the dishwasher. I have sent numerous emails, text messages and made calls all to no avail.Business response

I hired On Q to manage my property at ************************************************************* that time they placed 1 tenant: *************************, in fall 2022. The first year was acceptable, during the second year following a lease renewal I discovered that On Q allowed ***** to sublet the house to 3 other people and was essentially renting the house by the bedroom. That violated the *** rules and as a result the tenant recieved many parking fines over the year. Also during that year the tenant was not maintaining the property, requests to my property manager were never acted on and I did not renew the lease and let it expire in February 2024. At that time I documented significant damage to the property caused by the tenant and had it repaired by a contractor. I provided pictures and quotes to On Q totalling a little over $3,000, and work was completed in March 2024. At that time On Q cancelled my account, but never refunded me for repairs out of the security deposit. The person managing my property left On Q as an employee the following day, also in March. It's mid June at this point and I just want a resolution to move on with my life.Business response

I filed a previous complaint with BBB where the company stated they were pulling accounting records to resolve. I have not been able to get into contact with that person at On Q and never recieved any information from them on the accounting for **********************************************************. OnQ was my property manager, and after the last tenant moved out in February OnQ told me several times that the tenant would be put on a payment plan for the monies owed and for the repairs to the property, that the deposit would be used to cover back and late rent. I have recieved no confirmation from OnQ that this occurred and my property manager immediately left the company shortly after the tenant moved out. My account was also cancelled with OnQ shortly after that, without me telling them to do so. I would like an accurate accounting and information if I need to *** the tenant, property manager, or take a tax loss to resolve this situation.Business response

Dear Better Business Bureau,I am filing a complaint against OnQ Property Management for failing to communicate, imposing unauthorized fees, and illegally withholding funds. Despite several attempts to address these issues directly, their non-responsiveness has forced me to terminate our agreement and demand the immediate return of all improperly held funds.Key Complaints Include:Lack of communication affecting property management.Unauthorized fees charged without prior disclosure.Illegal retention of funds without justification.I have formally notified OnQ Property Management of the termination of their services, effective 30 days from now, and requested the immediate return of my funds. Additionally, I have instructed them to inform the tenant of their termination as property manager and to cease all future charges.Given their refusal to address these grievances, I seek the BBB's assistance in resolving this matter, ensuring the return of my funds, and holding OnQ Property Management accountable for their actions.Thank you for your attention to this issue.Business response

We lived in a rental home through ***** for 4 years. We purchased a home and moved out 11/30/2023 after 4 years of being exceptional tenants and paying rent on time every time or early. The day after our lease ended we were told by *************************, they picked up a package that had accidentally been sent to the house and that I needed to come get it from their office. Thats was all I was told. With moving and it being the holidays it slipped my mind until 12/20. I reached out to let them know I was coming to get it and they told me they threw the package away. Without any warning or giving me a date I needed to come and get it, they threw my package away. I didnt realize it was an important package (thats my fault), I thought it was going to my address and had been delayed with holiday mail. It was worth $150. All they told me was I had a package and I should come pick it up. I was never told a date to get it by or a warning they would just throw it away.Business response

My wife and I rented ******************************* ******************* home from the original owners for over 6 years. The last year OnQ took over lease. First they are stating that there are issues of wear and tear after the move out with a bill over 3k.Lets start by stating that not only is the original lease and OnQ lease agreement doesnt explain any responsibility in ie paint, carpet etc.We lived there for 4 weeks with no air conditioning when it was 105, degrees causing us to stay in a hotel.Leaking sprinklers causing holes in the dirt, and paint that cannot be matched to the original paint because of the existing paint is from 2012.The carpet way over the date of manufacture replacement date.But most desturbing is both parties did not complete a pre move in installation and therefore have no evidence of prior renters condition, OnQ is completely reaching out for non legal arguments on this property and to even ignore my response sent in to argue the claim, but instead send a letter stating they will report it to collections on our report is merely a rude response to try to force a payment regardless of guilt, That is clearly stating that theres no legal liability because of the lease agreement with no understanding of cost responsibilities over wear and tear, especially when the house was built in 2012Business response

Mr. ********,
Unfortunately, the disposition we sent is accurate. In addition to the damage in the home that was far beyond normal wear and tear, there is still unpaid rent on the balance. We understand this is frustrating, but the amount you owe is based on a compromise with the property owner.
Thank you for your understanding and we wish you the best of luck.

I am writing to bring to your attention a series of unfortunate events that have been causing me significant distress, and inconvenience regarding my rental payments and the treatment I have received from On Q property management.To provide some context, on August 1st, while I was out of the country, I attempted to make a payment through their online portal, but encountered technical difficulties. An employee of On Q has informed me that the issue may have been due to my IP address being outside the country, and mentioned that similar problems had occurred before. It was only upon my return to the country on August 6th that I discovered a $150 late fee had been charged to my account, despite the payment delay not being my fault. In an effort to resolve the matter swiftly, I decided to pay the fee and move forward.On August 7/8th, I went to the On Q property office to drop off a check, as I had to leave the state once again. Unfortunately, the property manager agent was unavailable at the time, so I explained the situation to a female staff member at the front desk and handed over the check which she accepted. Surprisingly, it wasn't until August 11th that I received communication from the office, informing me that personal checks were not accepted, and only money orders were valid forms of payment. I was taken aback by this revelation, as the employee at the office had accepted my check and held onto it for four days before notifying me. I immediately informed ******, my property manager, that I was out of state and would be unable to make a payment until I returned in a few days.Upon my return on August 16th, I promptly delivered a money order to the office. However, to my dismay, I discovered that an additional $350 late fees had been charged to my account since the payment was made on the 16th. I promptly emailed On Q property management, explaining that I should not be subjected to further late fees, as they had received my payment on the 7th and had accepted my check at the office, holding onto it until the 11th without notifying me. I also requested for a manager to contact me regarding this matter, but regrettably, I did not receive any response.On September 1st, when I attempted to make my payment online, I encountered further difficulties. The system had added the $350 to my outstanding balance, and there was no option to pay it online. By the time I returned to town, an additional $450 in late fees had been added, along with the $350 and an eviction notice and a court date, all without any prior notification from On Q property management. In an effort to mitigate the situation, I promptly paid the monthly rent that was due and once again reached out to On Q property management to address the recurring late fee issue. Unfortunately, I did not receive any response from them.To my dismay, the same pattern repeated in October, with another $450 in late fees and an eviction notice being added before the 15th of the month. Despite my repeated explanations that I am only in ******* for one week each month and can only make my payment online, and that they need to fix the problem so I can make my payment online on the 1st. I have been continuously harassed by On Q property management and the property owner. I have consistently paid my agreed rent without a single ***** missing, yet I am now being asked to pay nearly $2000 in late fees due to their decision to hold onto my check and delay notifying me about the requirement for a money order. It is also concerning that the property manager, ***********************, never returns my calls or notifies me of eviction notices, which is against the law in *******.This ongoing situation has caused me an immense amount of stress, both at work and in my personal life. It has significantly impacted my well-being, leading to increased blood pressure and feelings of depression due to the incessant eviction harassment and the lack of communication from On Q property management.I kindly request your assistance in resolving this matter promptly and fairly. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to hearing from you soon.Business response

I was oblivious of their mismanagement they continued to manage my property according to their whims and fancy incurring repetitive repairs and expenses without my approval and took no responsibility of their mistakes.
They have been my property management company since 12yrs. I changed in October 2023
This switch was on the behest of the management company ways.
I request that an enquiry be conducted and On Q be held responsible and bear good the losses incurred to me and also thrive on their business cheating people
