    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Unanswered
    We recently signed a lease agreement with silver hammer property management. Upon moving in, we discovered that a proper home inspection was NOT conducted prior to leasing. Weve had multiple issues w this property and have questioned along with made aware of the many safety and health violations this property management company continues to ignore. We have an infestation of ants due to the foundation rotting out. The well water supply turned every appliance/bathing fixture into a bright orange color with a horrid smell. **** repeatedly told them to address these issues due to a newborn child shortly entering our family. Today was the final straw when the A/C turned on and black debris started to descend from the vents. Ive had to spend a significant amount of funds just to get the water to an acceptable tolerance along w insect mitigation. I refuse to spend more into the **** system. At this point, it has become a quality of life issue and am giving the courtesy to silver hammer to make things right before pursuing other avenues. Ive attached multiple photos of all of the issues weve submitted directly to ****. Were currently set up on autopay and have yet and will not miss a single rent payment. All I ask is that the same consideration is shown towards my family in regards to their safety.

    Please help me!*** lived in the same apartment building (house apartment) since 2013 **************************************************************. When I first moved in it was management by *************. Now it is managed by Silver Hammer. Silver Hammer has been pretty bad.They, more than one person, walks on my carpet without out shoes even after I tell them not too. Then they act like its my problem. They get mad at me but they are the ones causing the issue.Over this winter I almost slipped on the property during an ice storm. I had to ask the company for salt! Why!? Whenever I have a maintenance request they send me a bunch of texts and call me. They bother me. Even though I told them they can just enter my apartment whenever.They blame me for not being able to enter my apartment! For not having a their key! Wait a minute? Dont they own this building!? Yes they do!Silver Hammer takes too long addressing repairs. But the biggest issues My neighbor below (same building) smokes cigarettes often, not even 8 ft from the door. I dont like the smell. I asked her not to smoke and I asked Silver Hammer to have her stop! She hasnt stopped.We share a common basement laundry. My neighbor has gone through my laundry. I told Silver Hammer, she did. My neighbor sexually harassed me. She tries to get with me. I told Silver Hammer.When I leave my apartment I see her watch me!Im creepy out!This company needs to get their s*** together!
