The issue first earlier this year with the sewage lines backed up into the house whenever I washed clothes or took a shower. I noticed the tub wasnt draining and all the sinks and toilet would not drain. So it told them almost two months to fix the issue. New piping was installed however six months later Im having the same problem but this time it is worse. My yard is filled with pines trees and there is a 116ft pine tree directly over the sewage pipe. Because of this the roots of the tree have grown into the pipe restricting water flow and the job that was performed in February was just a bandaid and that piping has separated from the main pipe. Thus I have sewage backing up into the house and into my front yard. It smells so bad and prevents me and my immediate neighbors from enjoying sitting outside. The company has set out two different companies to provide estimates of the tree removal and they have denied each one trying to be cheap. This issue is going on a month and a half since I reported the issue with no resolve. Every time I call for maintenance I get put on hold and the line hangs up. No one ever has the sense enough to call me back. Yet the company over charges for old homes they dont want to up keep or use contractors that perform half hearted repairs. This issue has caused me to get sick from inhaling sewage.Business Response

I rented a single family house, ************************************************************************ from property management, Progress Residential. The lease term was for one full-year from May, 2022 May, 2023. On May 2023, my family moved out from the house as agreed on the lease. I received a check for our security deposit via the postal service. When I went to deposit the check, the bank informed me that they cannot process the deposit due to the insufficient fund. I contacted Progress Residential immediately and they asked me to email *************************************************** to discuss further. I have sent multiple emails since July 9th, but there has been absolutely no response to any of my emails. I tried reaching Progress Residential again over the phone and they said there is no phone number to contact the past resident dispute department. It has been almost 3 months and I have not been able to get my deposit back. All I am asking is to return my security deposit of $2740 from Progress Residential. I appreciate your time and please let me know if you have any questions.Business Response

Home is not in the best condition. Upon moving in the home in December 2019, it had noticeable water damage on ceiling and baseboards (Upstairs and Downstairs). Progress associate advised during the walkthrough that the home comes As-Is. Since then, multiple work orders have been placed and documented on the home (Over 20 created). Management patched most situations without truly fixing the issues and treated those issues (I.e. the roof and roof awning) of the home as a minor fix. thus allowing mold to grow within multiple areas large and small. AMG was found and supposedly fixed but some was sprayed over with noticeable color change. Mold spores on vent in living area where water damage was present which I know was causing breathing issues in the home. I paid for a personal home inspection to be done and tried to contact management on numerous occasions about it since June - August of this year. No response back until I advised ****** the (Maintenance manager) that I would like to terminate my lease due to the homes condition and health issues. At this time of that request, I have not resided in the home for 3 months due to my inability to breathe. The inspector found multiple issues including cracks in the foundation. A cracked beam in attic which rendered the home unsafe and needed to be fixed. Termite infestation was also documented and advised. ****** created a work order for termite suspicion the third party vendor confirmed. Management canceled the termite work. Management agreed to terminate lease thus after by waiving the termination of lease penalties, however, only if I waive my rights to recoup damages both known and unknown after I move from the premises. Now they are threatening those very fees they said will be waived if I do not sign the document as is. which in turn means waiving my rights while they keep theirs. Management refuses to speak with me or return emails. Despite the many attempts, no resolve has been issued on this matter.Business Response

*******,
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced. As of this point, my understanding is that the home has been vacated and that all service requests have been completed, except for the pest control, which is in process.Please see below:
- J004698712 doors,windows, broken glass, work completed 9/4/23
- J004563232 AMG 8/1/23 work completed
- J004687118 pest control 8/17/23, to be scheduled
- J004442799 ceiling repairs, drywall, paint after roof leak, AMG 7/21/23 completed
- J004432558 remediation from roof damage, work completed 6/7/23
I apologize for the delays in communication. To address your concerns regarding the property, the market offered an Early Termination Agreement. The Early Termination Agreement form was sent over with a request for a signature, however, you declined to sign. There was therefore an early termination fee added to the ledger in the amount of $3,848.00 on 9/8/23.Kindly note the terms of early termination as defined in the lease:3.8. Early Termination. Resident agrees to pay an amount equal to two months Rent as liquidated damages or an early termination fee if Resident elects to terminate the Lease for any reason (other than those identified in Section 17, below) prior to the End Date of the Lease. Upon receipt of payment, the Landlord waives the right to seek additional Rent beyond the date that the Landlord retakes possession, and such termination will not be considered an event of default. Failure to make timely payment may result in a default of the Lease, and Landlord shall have all rights and remedies available hereunder.
Thank you and please let us know if anything additional needs to be addressed by contacting 833.PRG.RESS

On August 28 our a/c stopped working. We called Progress numerous times and were told a technician would be sent. Nobody came, nor did they call to tell us they weren't coming. At the time I was 12 days from my due date. So they put us ** in a hotel, where my water broke and I went into labor. Still no one had come to fix our unit. Today I was discharged from the hospital. The problem is still not rectified and the house is very hot. They put us ** in a hotel again, but they are only able to reserve one night at a time. So we have to check out tomorrow morning, have nowhere to go, and wait around until we know if it has been fixed or not. My baby is 2 days old, and I am struggling bc I was hemorrhaging in the hospital and they had to bring in extra doctors to suture me up. This is a nightmare. And deplorable. I have anxiety as it is. Now I'm having to deal with a hurting body and a newborn with no home to go to. I want immediate resolutionBusiness Response

Im or about 8/31/23, we reported to Progress Residential that out air Conditioning has failed in the home we rent from them, and the temperature outside was over 100 degrees. They registered the work order but could not make it emergency, until the inside was at or above 85 degrees. A few hours later we called again and advised them it has hit 85 degrees inside the home.They sent out a technician from progress and determine there was an issue. They left a small ************ to help Cool it down a bit. Next day an ** company was out (the Next night) to fix the problem (so we were told) and they reported the ** needed a part, and scheduled with us their follow up the following evening Between 6pm and 8pm.. we waited . And called when they didnt show and were told Progress has not yet approved the part/invoice.Today is September 10th and the temperature OUTSIDE continues to be in the 95+ up to 109 degrees and inside Excessive of 85 degrees yet, Multiple calls to progress on a daily basis continue to tell is that it has been escalated and they too are still waiting on approval ! A decision ..As each complaint (or follow up call) is made, a new work order is seemingly created , followed by a message that says this work order is been resolved and is now being closed . Yet, nothing from our perspective is being done or has been done. Its like they (the phone agents) must be telling someone in the organization that The ** issue is still an issue and either That person is On vacation or No one cares that this is Unresolved from our perspective (you know , the customer ). None-the-less , We are still awaiting word (an answer, followed by a plan and a timeline ) for this resolution to an ** that is Not working at all .. In ****** where revised statute 118a.380 apparently reads that , Once notified, the Landlord has just 24 hours to repair an essential service .My 3rd inquiry was greeted by hotel stay offer, none has been provided to date.Business Response

Put a hold deposit on a home. Viewed home and decided to move forward leasing the home. I was sent a lease to sign and move in instructions along with an "orientation call" appointment for 9/6. My deposit of certified funds was dropped at the local office as per the instructions from a leasing agent at Progress. I spent hours setting up electricity, wifi, movers, etc. On 9/6 I did not receive a call for my orientation. I called Progress to see what was going on and was told that my deposit had not been processed and my move in date would need to be rescheduled. Throughout multiple conversations and texts trying to get this resolved I find out that the home didn't pass their in house inspection, so they would have to reschedule for that reason. All this while being gaslit from ****** saying that I was well aware of this situation. I have a signed lease with 9/6 as a move in date. I have paid for renting this home starting on 9/6. The electricity is in my name as of 9/6. I would like to be able to move in, with any repairs to be completed after the move in process. I must be out of my current house in 6 days, and I have movers scheduled. Please resolve ASAPBusiness Response

I still have not received a refund from the certified funds that you received on 9/5 plus the hold fee and application fees. You have been holding my money for two weeks. Additionally I am asking that the amount of $75.05 be added to the refund amount for the electric bill I received (per your instructions I had the electricity put in my name on the start date of the lease). This will only scratch the surface of damages I have suffered due to your inept management and employee, ****************
This house was not delivered on time and I was lied to multiple times as to the reason. I would like an update about when the above listed funds will be overnighted to me.
Meanwhile, this rental has gone back on the market and has been rented by another person. You have their money and mine? What about interest? How about some action and not just empty open ended promises?

This company rents homes to the public. Progress residential refuses to service our air conditioner. We have been trying for 4 days now. Ive reported temps coming out of the vents over 88 and that the ambient temp in the house is over 86. We are told that its non emergent. Absolutely HORRID customer service. My family has been displaced due to this and we are incurring heavy expenses from hotels and having to rent stand alone ac units. This is why we rent a home, so that we have a landlord that is responsible for home repairs. Progress wants the tenant to do it all and shut their mouths when there is an issue. This businesses does not deserve an A+ rating.Business Response
