I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and frustration with the ongoing issue of the air conditioning being out in my apartment for the past 15 days. As an asthmatic, the lack of a functioning air conditioning system has not only caused me physical discomfort but has also put my health at risk. I have been forced to spend money on hotels for several nights in order to escape the unbearable heat in my apartment. The portable AC units that the maintenance team provided either leaked terribly or simply blew out hot air from outside, providing no relief from the sweltering temperatures. The lack of urgency and incompetence displayed by both the maintenance team and the leasing office in addressing this emergency situation is completely unacceptable. It is the hottest month and weeks of summer, and yet no meaningful steps have been taken to resolve the issue in a timely manner.Due to the property management company failing to provide me with a habitable living environment. I am demanding that all late fees be removed from my account and that I receive at minimum 50% discount on my rent for the month of July. According to the laws of the state of Georgia, landlords are required to provide tenants with a working air conditioning system if the temperature exceeds 80 degrees. My apartment has been consistently above 86 degrees for several days, with temperatures outside exceeding 90 degrees. I was assured that the issue would be resolved by Friday, July 12, as per a voicemail that I have on record. However, no one showed up on that day, leaving me to suffer in these inhumane conditions without any relief.I demand immediate action to rectify this situation and provide me with the basic necessity of a functioning air conditioning system.I expect a prompt response to this email - in writing and a concrete plan of actions to resolve this issue. Failure to do so will result in further escalation of this matter.Business response

Dear ******,
I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused to you by the delay in repairing the air conditioning in your apartment. I understand the importance of a comfortable living space and we strive to resolve all maintenance issues promptly.
Upon receiving the initial service request, our maintenance team had begun troubleshooting to identify the root cause of the issue. This process involved several steps and attempts to explore all potential resolutions. It was then determined that the **** unit required replacement in order to function properly. We acknowledge that this extended repair time was inconvenient and sincerely apologize for any discomfort caused to you.
To address your increased power bill from the portable AC that we provided during the repair time, our Property Manager, *******, has agreed to cover your power bill for this month. We hope this alleviates some of the inconvenience you faced.
If there are any unresolved issues or additional concerns, please inform us so we can discuss and address them promptly. ******* will also be checking in with you to ensure the new **** unit is meeting your expectations and functioning properly.
Thank you again for bringing this matter and your feedback to our attention. We are committed to improving our residents' satisfaction and hope we were able to fully resolve this issue for you.
Sincerely,
*************************

From: ***********************, Apartment Unit 1728 Date: July 11, 2024 Subject: Complaint Regarding Unforeseen Construction Damage and Unreasonable Living Conditions This letter serves as a formal complaint regarding the unacceptable living conditions I experienced at **** at Highpoint Apartments, Unit 1728, under your management.Background:On June 23, 2024, I received a notification regarding upcoming construction within the building. The letter stated that I would need to vacate the unit or relocate within the complex by July 12, 2024. Unfortunately, I was on vacation from June 12, 2023, to July 8, 2024, and only received an email from Assistant Manager ****** on the latter date confirming the July 12th construction start.Issues:Unforeseen Construction Damage: Despite the July 12th start date, construction began on June 29th, while my belongings remained in the apartment. This resulted in damage to my property, including a dropped and broken TV and extensive dust contamination that *** render other belongings unusable. The lack of proper notice prevented me from arranging for the safe removal of my belongings beforehand.Financial Hardship: Due to the unexpected early construction and damaged property, I was forced to hire movers on short notice and rent temporary housing at a significant daily cost ($200). This caused unexpected financial strain.Food ***************** Conditions: The disconnection of power in my unit before the agreed-upon July 4th date resulted in the spoilage of my food. Additionally, the movers were forced to work in extremely high temperatures exceeding 100 degrees due to the lack of power.Request for Compensation:I am requesting compensation in the amount of $15,000 to cover the damages to my property, the cost of moving and temporary housing, and the spoilage of food. This amount reflects the financial burden I have incurred due to Priderock Capital Management's negligence and failure to provide proper notice.Sincerely,Business response

Hello, ********************.
Thank you for the correspondence. I think some items in your email have been miscommunicated/misunderstood. Construction on building 17 did start on the exterior of the building on June 29th, however the power to this building has not been cut off and is scheduled for July 29, 2024. I understand that you allowed a family member to remove your items from your apartment in your absence, and that keys have been returned for your move out. The leasing office was not notified of any damage to your belongings until after your move out. At this time, no refund will be issued.
Please feel free to reach out to me directly at ****************.
Thanks,

Complaint: 21978465
I am rejecting this response because:
First I want to thank you for your response. While I appreciate some clarifications, I believe there are still unresolved issues regarding my lease termination.Access and Communication Issues:
You mention I "allowed a family member" to remove belongings. While it's true I sent someone I trust, they were not listed on the lease agreement. Since they are not in the lease the apartment is not willing to take nay complaint form a person who is not on the lease, since I was out of the country. Previously, my attempts to communicate with the assistant manager regarding my concerns were met with a limited response of "move out or accept the unit we offer you." This lack of communication and flexibility made it difficult to address the situation.
You state you weren't notified of damage until after the move-out. Unfortunately, due to being out of the country, I couldn't be present for the move-out inspection. However, the movers can attest to the damage occurring during construction.
Most importantly, the power was unavailable during the move-out, causing significant discomfort in the Texas heat, especially considering temperatures exceeding 100 degrees Fahrenheit. This raises concerns about the habitability of the unit under these circumstances.
Requesting Resolution:
Given these issues, I request the following:
Compensation for any damages caused during construction, with the movers as witnesses. I've pictures and videos to show the damage .
Acknowledgment of the power disruption and its impact on the move-out process.
I'm open to discussing a reasonable resolution to these concerns. However, if we can't reach an agreement, I may be forced to pursue legal options regarding the property damage and potentially uninhabitable conditions.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Menber ********Business response

Hello,
As stated in my prior email, your apartment home was not without power on our end when you moved. My understanding is a family member removed your belongings and returned your keys. At this time, no refund will be issued.
Please feel free to email me directly at ****************.
Thank you,

Complaint: 21978465
I am rejecting this response because:While I understand your desire to isolate the power issue, the current situation encompasses more than just a power-related problem. The lease agreement explicitly outlines the proper procedures for eviction, which include providing adequate notice. The one-week notice given to vacate the apartment or relocate to a different unit is in direct violation of the lease terms.
This abrupt timeline has caused significant financial hardship and emotional distress. Additionally, the apartment complex has initiated construction within the residential area without providing residents with proper safety equipment. This disregard for OSHA regulations jeopardizes the safety of both tenants and construction workers.
If a mutually agreeable resolution cannot be reached, I will be compelled to report this matter to the Occupational Safety and ********************* (OSHA) and the City of ******************* ******* Further legal action may also be necessary to address the damages incurred.Sincerely,

My roommate and I have been living at ********************** Apartments since January 2023. Our online account payment system was locked after a late payment, and we have been "required" to pay monthly money orders, against the lease, for the past several months. The office staff has been negligent with checking the drop box for payments. We have been told they could not reset the accounts, only "corporate" can. We have asked repeatedly for contact information for someone higher and they refuse to give us this information. In addition, I, as a tenant, had to request a new lease upon expiration of our first one. We did not receive a new lease until March of 2024, and did not sign one until May, meaning there was a gap in the time between contracts. The office staff has yelled at us on the phone, ignored calls and emails, closes the office early with no warning, and in general has no clue how to run a business or communicate with their tenants. Based on the lapse in leasing alone, we paid at least 3 month's worth of rent payments without being under a leasing agreement.Business response
07/24/2024
The FAA lease contract that was signed by the resident & management allows ********************** to change the way payments are accepted at any time during the lease term, this is located on page 1, paragraph 6 - "We may, at our option, require at any time that you pay all rent and other sums in cash, certified or cashier's check, money order or one monthly check rather than multiple checks". This was provided to the residents via email on 7/17/24 and the resident understood and had no questions after reviewing this section of the lease contract.
When a resident has multiple NSF payments, online payments and personal checks are no longer allowed. This information has been relayed to the residents from management.
Any lease contract that does not have a renewal, will automatically convert month to month. This is located on page 1, paragraph 3 of the signed lease contract.
The residents have not had any other questions since the explanations have been provided via email with the lease contract in hand.
Residents are living inside the unit and have signed a current renewal. No funds are due to this resident.

I have lived at ************* since October 14th 2023 which originally was supposed to be October 5th 2023 but that was delayed. This was incredibly frustrating being that at the time I was pregnant and due late October, and the communication and handling of the delay was incredibly mismanaged. We werent notified until October 4th 2023 that the next day move in was not happening. Following the move, the apartment was not cleaned, many things were damaged, we didnt have stove burners and there were pest. We were unable to view the unit prior to moving in because of their delayed issues, but because we have our current apartment the 60 day notice we had to move somewhere. It doesnt seem like the apartment was inspected before we were given the keys by anyone. The rent is $1799, which is by no means cheap, but work orders are constantly closed without being completed. I have left three pest control work orders which were closed without visitation. An email had went out stating different methods that we the tenants could use to act as our own pest control, but out of four request pest control has been out once. As of July first I sent a pest control request because there has been an influx of roaches and our unit has always had issues with spiders but like the other request it was closed without action. I had three request sent out due to the hvac units outside the master bedroom being incredibly loud and maintenance stated, well thats just the way the units were arranged. Doesnt make sense to me but hvac units are going to make noise. Theres nothing we can do about it. We have been rather reasonable with the noise complaints that we have submitted and the fact that we have cigarette butts in our yard. Some things a complex can not control, but the lest have really gotten out of hand and buy raid and vacuum, doesnt suffice as a solution.Business response

Good morning ************,
It was a pleasure speaking with you today. Thanks for confirming Pest control did make it to your unit last week and you are satisfied with the job they performed. We will continue to keep you on the schedule every other week until the issue is resolved. Please let us know if there are any other issues or concerns. We will also have all the ac units near your window looked at and make sure they are all working properly.

My husband and I, including our dog, have been without a fully fuctioning air conditioner for the last 9 going on 10 days. We live in ******* where it's an average of 109 during the summer. Priderock Management ***, ******************** knows we and many other tenants are without a/c. Yet they leave us with a swamp cooler and tell us they will be back the next day with more parts. So far no repairs have been done. Only bandainds hoping it will resolve the problem. Or they tell us maintenance will come back but no one shows up. Today I walked back out to my ac unit, after being told I'll be right back an hr ago, and saw the unit has been taken apart. It's 87 degrees and rising in my apt right now. We've already spent one night in a hotel. I don't want to do it again. The *** will not refund us for our hotel stay. Nor compensate for a high electric bill with a deduction in our rent. I took pictures of what I found. You will see fencing because of a fire the happened right beside my unit back in February. (Which, by the way, is not completed either)Business response

On July 26th they renewed their rental agreement for 12 additional months. During their tenure at *********** all requested repairs have been completed in a timely manner. The day that they reported the air conditioner malfunctioning one of our onsite service techs responded. At which time it was determined that their unit needed to be replaced and our third-party vendor was called to replace. However, due to peak ** season they had a backlog of work and notified us that they would replace the ** as soon as possible. Our onsite tech did what he could to keep the ** running, ***************** was provided a portable ac unit and offered the temporary use of our furnished two-bedroom model which was refused on multiple occasions. Once the third-party vendor replaced the air conditioner we provided the ****************** a courtesy concession, even though accommodations were offered, and the replacement time was out of our control.Initial Complaint

I have lived at the **** at ***************************** for 5 years. I think that shows loyalty, but what do I know. I have not had a working A/C unit in my apartment for the past two years. They come look at it and say, we have to call someone. They close out the work item in the electronic portal that we are supposed to log all maintenance issues, and the issues never get resolved. I have had to fix the toilets, door jams, and latches. I have had to replace electric outlets all because they don't want to. It is getting to the point where my senior citizen father and children are suffering beyond what they should. I guess we will have to wait for someone to have a major health event before anything will be done.Business response

Hello, I am trying to get to the bottom of an application i had done at an ************************** at **********. I did an application with them on 3/29 and the application was denied on 4/2. Legally according to MN statute 504b.173 the property is supposed to return administrative fees within 7-10 business days.

I was then told on 5/1 that it would be sent to my address in *******. I just got to my house in ******* on 5/19 and checked and there was still no payment.

When my wife, daughter and I moved into the apartment in September of 2023, we immediately notified them about the air conditioning not working and that the showers went from freezing cold and scalding hot, fluctuating between both sides every few seconds. Neither issue has been fixed. We still do not have air conditioning and our showers still scald us. We haven't brought it to the attention of the leasing office and filed countless reports and complaints but to no avail. We have spoken with *************************** numerous times and she continues to ignore us and get loud. She only ever threatens us about complaining and never helps resolve the issue. I genuinely don't know how ******* has a job when she cares so little about the tenants and what we have to live through. She is such a cold and uncaring individual. I will be reaching out to a lawyer to file legal paperwork against her and Priderock Capital Management. There is no reason for us to not have a working a/c or water that has actually scalded my daughter and I. We pay over two thousand dollars a month in rent to not have a working a/c, scalding hot water, and a property manager that literally does not care about us and only enforcing things that benefit her and her family.
