    Failure to communicate, execute, and hold landscape contractors accountable for inconsistent service. ******** ****** has ignored our communication about the inconsistent lawn service and has failed to hold the contractors responsible for inconsistent service. ******** ****** has failed to find a separate contractor who will provide adequate service to keep our rental lawn within scope of contract and within the rights of NC owners law to 'Enjoy the property whilst it is occupied'. Many attempts have been made by tenants to remedy the communication issue and get consistent service, without a proper solution or proper communication. Many excuse are made at the behest of saving money or taking the time to find a reliable contractor.

    Dear *****,

    When we reached out to the landscaping company regarding the delays in lawn maintenance, they explained that weatherparticularly rainhas caused shifts in their regular schedule.
    That said, we have since reset expectations with the vendor and emphasized the importance of maintaining the agreed-upon bi-weekly schedule moving forward.
    If you notice that the landscaper fails to meet this schedule again, please dont hesitate to notify me directly by emailing ******************************************************************.
    We appreciate your patience and communication as we continue working toward more consistent service.

    Best regards,
    ***** ****

    I'm a landlord in ****** who signed a management agreement with Acorn + Oak effective 8/1/24. They agreed to prepare my property for marketing, market it, rent it out, and manage it. Near the end of October, I was informed they were no longer interested in marketing the property, because it suddenly no longer fit their preferences, and they were unilaterally terminating the management agreement effective 10/31/24. Only one of the two rental units in question were ever posted to the rental market, and neither property had a signed lease with a tenant.The three months from August through the end of October were lost, and I'm back at square one. In addition to the bad business from their termination of the management agreement after only 3 months and with no results, they are now trying to charge me $1,300 of intake fees. In the management agreement I signed, an intake fee of $650 per unit to cover inspection and marketing is required from me, the owner. None of this marketing resulted in a lease or any value returned to me before Acorn + Oak decided to terminate my management agreement. Please let me know if this is a predatory practice.

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

    Hi ******* - I want to note that the business and I have come to an agreement this afternoon that works for both of us. Please go ahead and remove my complaint or mark it as closed when you have the chance.

    Happy that I received some compensation for the terminated contracts.



    Sincerely,
