I applied for a $1795 3br apt 9/20/23 (App fee: $50 paid by cc). Mgt called me & said it wouldnt be avail until at least Oct 1 (I said OK). She said she would see if she could show me the unit While the residents are living there. I said, OK but that I would like to see it when its VACANT (So I can get more of a feel for what it looks like / the space, and the condition of the ******* ***** seemed to switch her tune & then SURPRISINGLY and unfairly demanded (requested) nearly a $2000 (Technically $1800) Security Deposit to even LOOK at and/or HOLD the place! I said, What?! I looked into this legally, & a sec deposit should not be given until a lease is SIGNED, & yet I hadnt even SEEN the place! She then tried to say that she couldnt hold it for me if I didnt pay the nearly $2000! (I said, ****, I filled out your APP & PAID for the app, & was FULLY APPROVED I want to SEE the unit before paying a sec deposit!) She then proceeded to say that they would give it to another client if another client offered to pay the nearly $2000 sec deposit before even seeing the unit! I was FIRST in LINE - I PAID to see / hold this unit w/the app and its fees! It is WRONG to try and weasel a sec deposit out of me; let alone, a nearly $2000 one, BEFORE I have even signed a lease; let alone, had a chance to see the place! AND to see the place EMPTY / VACANT! This is NOT right. She said, Oh, well just return your $ if someone else gives us a sec deposit 1st! ??DESIRE: To physically SEE the apt FIRST (Since I paid AND was fully approved FIRST before ANY one else) & THEN decide whether I want to rent it!??I will consider REMOVING this review when FAIR practices are conducted, and I can physically SEE this unit, VACANT, & decide if I want to rent it! (Again, I was / am FIRST in line - I PAID & was fully APPROVED FIRST). Note: I do NOT drink, smoke, or use drugs of ANY kind, nor do I have ANY pets.I have PERFECT credit - Nearly an 800 ********* have been FULLY approved $600,000 to buy a HOME! I simply want to save some money & move into this STUDIO apt until I find a home!
