      This complaint is the Corporate entity that owns and manages The Summit / Asset Living in San Luis Obispo, CA. The Summit Apartments in SLO illegally withheld $26.66 from my security deposit for what they list as a "light clean bedroom" and "light paint Common Area" which clearly is defined as "Normal Wear and Tear" under CA Rental Law. I have made multiple requests for the refund of my deposit and was told by a property manager that it is their "policy to never refund the full security deposit". The apartment I leased was professionally cleaned and left in move-in condition. Any "light clean" that was needed was from maintenance people coming through. In addition, I am including The Summit Checkout form showing the excessive charges they routinely overcharge tenants. CA rental law states all charges must be reasonable and broken down by labor and supplies, including receipts for supplies used. The charges shown violate CA rental laws. Since this company is doing business in CA, they are equally responsible for the illegal activity of their management companies in CA. I have filed the same complaint to the BBB in San Luis Obispo County. I am seeking a refund of the remaining $26.66 deposit owed to me.

      My apartment complex refuses to fix anything which almost resulted in a fire. My dryer hasn't worked since I moved in, and it needed HVAC cleaning of the vents. I filed a complaint with Asset Living to try and get things done at the end of 2023 and earlier this month around 01/02/24 my dryer was finally "fixed". Apparently everything was fine a couple days ago so I started using my dryer. Well, I woke up after putting some clothes in and going to bed and it was smoking. The lint was starting to catch on fire.They refused to get the proper HVAC services and risked my life to save a little money. They let the maintenance men do HVAC and I guarantee none of them are properly trained or certified. Asset Living needs to be shut down. This is ridiculous. None of my floorboards are connected, so I can't mop because they warp and raise and it's destroying the floor. There is a leak in my skylight that they refuse to fix and there is a bubble behind the paint because of it, this place is a dump and they lied about remodeling. It's ******* disgusting that they get away with being slumlords professionally.

      I have been without a Kitchen light for a year now with a lease ending at the end of January 2024. This is a health concern because I do not have adequate light to properly clean my kitchen and my toliet is constantly running and missing up that we have to manually fix the toliet and this is unacceptable. I keep getting asked to pay a balance in which they created out of their negligance billing practices and instead of taking responsibility for their actions that want to charge me. I have paid all rent that I received so I do not owe any money. I feel like they are refusing to fix my issues out of retaliation which is a violation of the T**** ****** *** ******** ****** ** *** ***** ******** **** This section goes over a landlord's duty to repair or remedy. ******* ****** ** *** ***** ******** **** **** ******* ** *** ***** ******** **** discusses landlord liability and tenant remedies, as well as the procedure for requesting repairs. ******* ****** ** *** ***** ******** **** requires a tenant to take several steps before the landlord is considered to be liable to them.

The following steps must be followed before the tenant can take any of those actions: ." Section 92.331 of the Texas Property Code and Filing eviction proceedings (unless in certain circumstances listed in ******* ******* like when a tenant is behind in rent, has intentionally damaged the property, or remains in the property after their lease has ended); Depriving the tenant of use of the premises; Decreasing services to the tenant; Raising the rent or ending the lease; or "[E]ngaging, in bad faith, in a course of conduct that materially interferes with the tenant's rights under the tenant's lease." ******* ******* ** *** ***** ***** ********** **** ******* ******** "Rent Control," sets out when a municipality may enact rent control ordinances. ***** ******** ***** ******* *** ********** * This subchapter prohibits landlords from retaliating against a tenant for exercising a right given to them by law or by the lease.

      I pay $1600 a month to live ******* **** ****** ** ******* *** ** ****** ** which is managed under Asset Living. This management company has never responded to any calls or email until the last few months when I started threatening legal action. All the residents in this apartment are on a group text and everyone is going through the same things. No one has good cool AC. Every resident still living there (small community so about 7 or 8 people) has said this apartment management doesn't respond to their requests because the office is not on site and everyone has talked about suing or filing a class action lawsuit. People have posted how horrible this property is on the ******** *** and everyone has said to go to the media or get lawyers. We have been living in 80 degree temperatures inside our apartments for months as they said it was the best it would get during the summer.. and mine in these last 2 weeks has gotten up to 95. It became completely unlivable. I had to stay in hotels. I let my one contact/property manager know and she responded saying " I can't control Mother Nature so we will release you from your lease, but we'll send people out to take a look". They came out and nothings changed. My thermostat is still reading 88 degrees. At first the AC company said the condenser was completely shot, but after they talked to the apartment and came back today, they said it was "the blower". Well... myself and my animals are still suffering and living in unlivable conditions because this management company is cheap and simply doesn't care to ever fix anything or respond whatsoever up until you start threatening them. Not only that, but this place has become a homeless encampment. We have seen naked homeless people showing with the water hose inside the court yard because the back gate constantly remains open. Whats the point of a gate if it's never working... It's all around the worst management and property I've ever lived at.

      I signed a 2 year lease with my brother as a co-signer, not a resident. They added my brother as a resident, which is not true, he was only the warrantor. Because if this their third party utility service ********** has been charging me rates for 2 occupants, which is not correct. I contacted the Property Mgr of the Community on several occasions, but my request has fallen on deaf ears. This is not correct nor legal.
