      I've been living in **************** in ********* **** for 10 years. The manager last year didn't put the efts in right and I already fell behind because of miscommunication in the months prior due to covid. I got help to get my rent paid at that time. Then in January she left and never turned the paperwork in from the courts to take off legal fees because they lost in court. In February of this year I talked to corporate and they said they were going to help. Nobody called me back. I tried for months over the phone, emails,etc. To get in touch with them. In August they finally got a manager. I was approved through the **** finance to get my back rent paid because it kept accruing because they were the cause of me losing my 2nd job I got last year in October after losing my job in August because they kept taking me in to court every week in December. The new manager refused to fill out the paperwork and then she lied in court and said she been here since June. The lake is disgusting there. There's mattresses,dead fish,sewer drainage in to the lake, bikes, and I don't even know what else is in there, the residents drink this water. This business needs to be shut down.

      Per the community manager "Since being in the office in July, I had never received any contact from **** Housing therefore this eviction was based on non-payment of rent. Thank you."

      I am rejecting this response because:
      First it was **** you stated you have been in the office to the courts and now you want to say July. When I spoke to you finally in August you reflected anything that was sent to you. Also I was evicted because you rejected to fill out the paperwork per your lawyer.  The rent would have been paid if you hadn't rejected payment from the **** housing authority. I won in court last year. The legal fees are to be taken off.... and NEVER happened. Also get me off of your email address because you are emailing me about rules that have changed our giving me a *******************. What about the nasty, disgusting lake you have in that park? You didn't say anything about that. Why don't you look at all the emails that were sent to you from ******** from the Quad City Open Network? I have proof of all of this. And this email was to a girl that was there in ****. And she was there for 2 weeks.  See attached

      Per local management: "This was an eviction for non-payment of rent. This eviction was based on the previous Community Manager therefore I do not know if ****** did in fact reach out for assistance at that time of not and there's no recollection of her doing so in Manage American either. I have been in the office since July! The lake is being properly maintenance and cleaned. There are none of the sort in that lake as i did take a look after this ticket was created. The residents don't drink that water either."

      We have been attempting to purchase our home through Yes communities since July 2022. I have been calling in the office or stopping in person weekly. Our lease was up as of yesterday, 10/31. I was repeatedly told by management that I would not incur a month to month fee as we were attempting to purchase our home from Yes. Come to find out, no one at the office has a license to sell homes in ****. Not only am I still in limbo months later, but I have a ****** mtm lease fee on my bill that I keep getting told will be removed, and it has not. I gave up trying to buy the home and signed a new lease last week, and the fee is still present. This is unacceptable. I would have signed a lease much earlier had someone been honest and told me the company cannot currently sell homes. This charge needs to be removed on good faith.

      I moved out of the park September 29th, have not received the deposit back as it was returned? I cannot get an answer from corporate, Regional or park manager about where or when I will receive this money back. I have had issues with this park manager before and I want a straight answer and my $712.50 back. I was told, and it says in the lease agreement, 30 days after moving from the property the refund check will be mailed to me. It's currently October 26th. The check supposedly was sent on October 6th. It would help if they answered their phones too. It took 4 days to even speak to someone.

      I am a resident at the cedar **** community in ******** , **. I live at 189 *********************. A few days ago we tried contacting the manager of our office multiple times due to a water leak in a attempt to get it repaired. Being homeowners we realize it is our responsibility for the repair, but hoped for help due to our shoe string budget. The office manager was not in the office which happens all the time. We have not had hot water in over a week due to the leak, and my fiance was frustrated. We drove up to the office and my fiancee tried to discuss with the manager who had just arrived to the office at 3pm about getting a repair. The manager was very dismissive if her , and my fiance insulted her because of her dismissive nature. On Thursday we received a letter saying our lease was terminated due to a violent threat which did not occur. The manager refuses to let my fiance up to the office to apologize, and has not discussed anything with me even tho I am on the lease. We have contacted lawyers and do not wish to pursue legal action , but only wish to apologize for the insult and mend this fence if at all possible, but the manager refuses.

      Per the community manager: When ***************** came to my office she was very hostile and irritate screaming mostly profanity at me, when I asked her to calm down she started screaming. When I asked if she was a homeowner she replied "yes." So then I explained that she would be responsible to get her home fixed. She then started to threaten me and say more foul language to me. So, I then had to lock myself in my office and I sent my evictions attorney an email to please send the Macfees a 3-day notice, since they threatened me. A few days later when ***************** received this letter she called me and started to yell at me over the phone and I explained that I could not have a conversation with her if she was not willing to listen and I also had to get the police involved because she was acting hostile once again.

      For the past year I have been trying to have Yankee Spring test my home for dangerous toxins. My family has been experiencing headaches, nausea, vomiting, breathing difficulties, runny nose, congestion, cough, dizziness, throat irritation, skin irritation, white and black spores in air and every surface including inside dressers and clothing. I am being refused because they think Im lying or exaggerating. I decided to order a mold toxin kit online and the report came back on Oct 19, 2022 that their are 9 different types of spores on the top layer of my living room floor. I was unable to test anything else due to cost but the spores are everywhere. I am hoping to have my home treated, cleaned, and repaired. I would like to have everything that I have had to throw away, replaced, and in addition to all personal property that I can salvage professionally cleaned. I would like to have them held accountable for their negligence and given a monetary compensation above and beyond replacement of my items to be decided and agreed upon at a later time.

      This resident has lived in the home for over four years.  We have been actively working with her to address her concerns.  Our inspection company indicated in August 2022 that there were no signs of microbial growth in any areas of the home identified by the resident. The results of the mold testing provided by the resident indicate that the minimal amount of spores that were detected are commonly occurring in the soil,grass, leaves and can easily be tracked inside the home.  Despite having no obligation to do so, since we are not able to accommodate her to her liking,we offered to let the resident out of her lease early and to return her security deposit.  The resident rejected our offer and instead, signed a renewal for another year.

      On October 5th 2022 my auto payment was confirmed via email for rent. October 13th I received a notification on my door of unpaid rent with an extra $100 charge. Tried contacting the lot manager to find a solution to the problem and she was off no assistance, called corporate office and can never get an answer from anyone there nor can I get a response back.

      Business Response

      Date: 10/17/2022

      We have spoken to local management and they provided us with the following updates regarding this matter and how it is being addressed. 

      "Hi, I contacted ******************** concerning his NSF payment and also sent a letter explaining why his payment returned which is due to insufficient funds. I further explained to him that payments usually take 2-3 business days to process therefore he should have available funds in his account until the payment is cleared. He called in on Friday, 10/14/2022 stating that he received an email that his payment was received and was processing. I explained to him that "processing" means it's still in progress and hasn't been cleared yet. I also used an example of a credit card payment process. But he got very upset and stated he will not pay any extra fees including NSF fee or the late fee. I reminded him that he had the same issues in July, 2022 where his payment returned due to insufficient funds therefore, he is aware that late fees are applied if a payment isn't received by the 5th of the month and NSF fees are applied to every returned payment due to insufficient funds. I advised him that unfortunately, we are unable to waive these fees as this is due to insufficient funds in his account. He can make future payments through ************* to this issues from reoccurring."

      Local management updated on this matter with the following response: I spoke to resident ******* in regards of her $50.00 month to month fee. I told her that we will credit her account $50.00 for the month-to-month fee. She was upset that I wasn't able to give her back the $50.00 in cash or add it back to her bank account. She didn't like the answer I gave her than started to get loud. I told her she can get in contact with one of my supervisors. I gave her *****'s number and I'm not sure if she called her or not. She did mention before she left that she would tell her husband what I told her, but he wasn't going to like the answer I gave her because they didn't have any money left in their bank account.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me because there is no use in fighting anything they try to say i have no proof i did not raise my voice except my word against theres and no matter what in the end they will only credit me the money for next month instead of give it back to me now nor will they do anything about the fact that i got over draft fees because of them pulling more money out than what they should of and me ending up paying all of the fees with no reimbursement from them what so ever even tho there wouldnt have been any fees if they would of just given me back the 50 they shouldnt of taken in the first place. So i dont care any more i accept there response because nothing is going to change. 


      Sincerely,
