      Our heater broke in the middle of below-freezing temperatures in *******. I contacted Mynd and let them know that not only does this need to be fixed quickly but that there was a young child sick with pneumonia currently residing in the house, and we needed it fixed before the temperatures dropped again. Now their usual process is to send a vendor out, the vendor takes pictures, the vendor leaves. A few days pass. Another vendor comes by, takes pictures, leaves. Rinse, repeat, and if the wait for our garage door to be fixed is any indication, this process can take months without resolution. They messaged me to say they were going to treat this like an emergency and send someone out ASAP. A vendor came out, took pictures of the problem, said he would be back "at a later date" to fix the broken heater (mind you it's going to be 31F tonight!) and left. I texted the vendor--a very nice man, this isn't his fault--when we could expect him to return and fix the heater, to which he responded "It depends on when Mynd approves the parts needed." It's been several hours. I've messaged mynd several times urging them to approve the part, and my roommate has been on hold on the "emergency" maintenance line three separate times for 40 minutes each, only to be hung up on every time. The temperature is 54F right now and falling steadily, and I have a feeling the repair man won't come by until tomorrow if they wait too long to approve it. Some emergency repair!This is unacceptable and if we have to buy a space heater to keep my daughter's lungs from getting worse tonight, MYND will absolutely be reimbursing us. And god forbid she gets sicker, MYND will be hearing from a lawyer.

      I am rejecting this response because

      it should not take two days in record freezing temperatures to fix an emergency maintenance request for a broken heater. It should take two days to fix a NORMAL maintenance request for something like a broken garage door (still not fixed! Its been three months!) emergency means same day. Unacceptable.:

      We moved into a ******************** property and our downstairs neighbor started harassing us. She filed fraudulent complaints with the city, cyberstalked my husband, continuous banging and throwing of heavy objects at our floor, following my husband out of the driveway while shining a flashlight in his eyes, emailing his employer about how we are having her apartment under surveillance and hacking her email ending the email that well be sorry and shell take things as far as she can yelling threats and cussing and racial slurs at us. Obviously she is mentally unwell, but she is causing us a lot of fear and definitely breaking the terms of any lease with her harassment. We have repeatedly asked ******************** to investigate this woman and they just ignore us. They have also had workers let themselves into our rental without notice or knocking after we already got the keys. They continue to be a tool for this woman to harass us. They also knew about her mental problems and the inevitability of her harassing us before we moved in. We have repeatedly asked for her to be investigated or be held responsible for violating the terms of the lease, we have also asked as a desperate act to be let out of our lease contract early but ******************** refuses. This is disgusting and illegal and we now have to pursue this in court and pay court costs out of our own pocket to file restraining orders and to sue ******************** for liable.

      I am rejecting this response because:I have been told this multiple times from the management team, and then after many more messages from me someone will basically say well we dont care. No one has ever asked for my evidence or come to do an investigation or resolved the matter in any way and all of us residents here are scared of this woman. She harassed us and the people in this building day and night and Mynd wont even issue a complaint against her.

      This is the worst company to rent from. My husband and I moved in to a brand new construction home and upon our arrival, we noticed that the house wasnt clean, AT ALL!! It had post construction dust everywhere, scraps of wood and had never been professionally cleaned. We were excellent tenants, yet, when we moved out, they charged us an outrageous amount of money from our deposit to cover damages. They charged us $450 for vertical blinds that you can get at ********** for maybe $50 for a pack of replacements. We also patched and covered any nail holes we made and we even went to ********** to get the same exact interior paint and fixed the spots on the walls. They also charged us $666.67 to paint the house!! Why should we be paying for something that is the landlords responsibility!? Also, they charged us $400 to clean the house when we left it very clean, the only thing that we didnt have time to clean was the oven, which a cleaning company might charge less than $100 to clean. It seems like Mynd just made some random numbers just to keep our deposit.

      I moved in on May 09, 2022. Shortly after moving in, within two weeks, I filed a repair request regarding, among other items, an electrical issue involving three electric sockets in adjoining rooms which did not work, and having to have a switch on in the kitchen in order to use the light switch in the dining room and a hallway. Mynd did send contractors to resolve the other issues in a timely manner, with the exception of the electrical problems. This issue has been ongoing with them; no contractor has been out to investigate the issue, no work orders generated for repair, yet Mynd claims to have a repair estimate waiting to be approved, apparently since June. They have sent me emails asking about resolution of that ticket, and I have responded the electrical issues continue. The result is always the same: They are awaiting approval on an estimate which never materializes. August 13th I reported a problem with a section of flooring in the living room. It appeared the floor was bucking upward, as if something was being driven into the floor from below. It was discovered (through my own efforts) accumulated moisture in the crawlspace had caused the hardwood floors underneath the vinyl laminate plank to buckle, and there was a large accumulation of mold. I informed Mynd immediately of my findings and the need for expedited resolution, but all that has been done is one individual has come out to take some pictures and submit a bid to repair. Nothing has been done, and the representative at Mynd continues to put me off, Promises of phone calls which never happen, endless runaround on serious issues with no end apparent, structural issues with the house itself which worsen (I can no longer use the back door due to the house shifting), and indifference about the presence of potentially hazardous mold where they cannot even send a mold abatement contractor, I am at the end of my patience with their incompetent property management.

      My fianc and I lived in the MYND property from June 2021 to May 2022. We trusted MYND to have the property reflect what we saw in the pictures and blueprint layout of the rooms. We went to view the property a week prior to our move-in date, and my fianc found that there was ABSOLUTELY NO STORAGE SPACE; MYND simply shrugged it off as a marketing mistake. After weve left this place, we found the SAME deceiving image advertising that there's a storage room. After we basically were cornered into moving into a space with one less room for all our things, we also found out that there is a RIDICULOUS homeless issue in the area; COUNTLESS times we felt unsafe in our space, as homeless people would break into the fencing next to our unit and sleep, drink alcohol, and smoke drugs. Each time we would attempt to call MYND to speak to our property manager, we were on hold for sometimes 20 minutes at a time before reaching a customer service agent who could barely speak English and read from a script. We called the San ************ and 911 a total of roughly 10 times while living there. On top of the homeless encampment issues, our car was broken into 3 TIMES while parked in our spot. We asked management to provide better security or put-up cameras on the property to deter the suspects, but we were told no over and over again. Our upstairs neighbors moved into the unit a month after we did, they would invite people over countless times, stomp on the ground when walking, slam doors, drop their toilet seat, and play loud music from their unit. Each time they came home, they would park in their spaces, play music for nearly 30 minutes just BLARING from their speakers, and slam the gate shut behind them, which was right next to our living space. Furthermore, MYND stole our deposit by charging us to paint to ENTIRE apartment. We tried to dispute it but they ignored out dispute even after substantial evidence and also refused to compensate us for a storage unit that was promised.

      I am rejecting this response because:
      I have continuously been dealing with MYND looking into the manor and caring about their tenants. However, for well over a year MYND has never done anything to ultimately settle a dispute. I have either been constantly ignored after countless attempts to contact MYND, I have followed their instructions to ultimately be rejected even after substantial evidence verifying my claim. Additionally, MYND blames other departments for serious violations/errors yet will continue to ignore the mistake and provide false information. Moreover, MYND simply ignores their tenants concerns, ignores their tenants safety, and ignores their tenants mental and physical wellbeing.

      I moved into a rental property on 8/22/22. The day I moved in I reported the patio door had been broken and shattered glass is EVERYWHERE. I have followed up NUMEROUS times with Mynd about getting this fixed, or at a minimum, having the glass cleaned up and the broken door boarded up. EVERY follow up has been completely ignored. 5 weeks later, the door is still broken and every time theres wind or rain, more damage occurs. No one at Mynd cares. My toilet broke 10 days ago. I reported it the day it broke. I was again ignored for a week then maintenance responded on day 7, saying they can come out in 6 days to look at it. I refused and said they already waited a week and I wanted someone out in 48 hours. I was once again ignored, I can only assume as punishment for pushing back on their absurd request. The appointment time came and went. Both the patio door AND the toilet remain broken. This company is basically a slumlord. They want to collect rent but dont provide homes with basic necessities like shelter and functional plumbing. Ive tried to reach upper management but Im - you guessed it - ignored.

      Complaint: 18155211

      I am rejecting this response because:

      No one from Mynd has contacted me to apologize or confirm this same issue will not happen again when I have a maintenance problem. My current issues were addressed but I have NO FAITH this will not happen again. 

      Sincerely,
