On August 13, 2022 my wife and I entered into a leasing contract for a 1 week rental with a property managed by Jack Lingo Inc in the amount of $4,190.60 in the off season in Rehoboth Beach, DE. It was just the two of us as well as our 19 year old son coming to stay. When we arrived on September 10, 2022, we instantly found the property to be un-clean and too small for adults since the ceilings were very low. Please see the pictures of some areas of the property below. We could not stay in this property as it was really disgusting and not well maintained and again very small and tiny. Please understand that we have stayed in many properties in this area over the years and never seen anything like this property, especially at this price range. The property advertised was clean and new looking, when we arrived, it was disgusting. On September 11, 2022 after one disgusting night, we rented another house from Jack Lingo for $6000.00 in the same area that was really too big but it was the only other house they had available for this week. This house was acceptable and we stayed for 1 week. Needless to say, we were very surprised to see the double charges on our account for both houses. We can only stay in one house at a time during the same period of time, not two. Jack Lingo should not be charging us for two properties during the same period of time. We entered into this lease in good faith. The lease has no room for disputes and waives our right to dispute even if the property is not acceptable. This activity should not be allowed in DE or America. Please be sure not to let them get away with this kind of fraudulent activity. Please contact me to discuss this further as we do not want to be charged twice. My number is 301-908-7027.
