  I paid $1640 deposit to move into *********************** owed by concord rents. For starters.... my water bills fluctuated every month. The first few were about $80. All of a sudden they started to be over $120. I complained and they had someone come check for leaks in November. Nothing was found. January, I came home to my hot water heater overflowing. Then all of a sudden the water bill (FOR ******** was $68. Weird right? I called and asked how that could be. Office manager said she had no idea. Said she would look into it. Never got back to me. Then I moved out and into a new place sooner than my lease ended (2/15/24) and lease ended 3/10/24. I didn't use any water from 2/15-3/10.... I just went there every few days to clean up and make sure my stuff was out. Yet, when February water bill came it was $90. I called and said how could this be? I only used water for 15 days. THEN, I was told to pay the pro rate amount for March rent with this water bill and March water bill would be mailed to me. I didn't use any water in March either obviously I had already moved out. I called corporate 3x since Feb 1 about these issues with NO call backs. Today, I get a letter about my refund for deposit. Telling me I owe $300 in water bills plus all these other fees. This company is trying to s**** people. I will be following up every day until my refund is fixed!!!!!

  Business Response

  Date: 04/05/2024

  The complainant has expressed concerns regarding the following:
  Fluctuating water bill.
  Water usage is determined by the residents use of water and can/will fluctuate monthly based on the residents usage.
  Not receiving the final prorated water bill for March.
  As the water bill is managed by a third-party vendor it run approximately 60 days in arrearage and at move out there is the final water bill.
  The move out charges and final billing.
  Part of the charges on the final water bill were actually for electric charges and a utility recovery     fee because the electric service was not maintained in your name for the entire length of              residency. Per the lease contract:
  Failure to maintain utilities as required herein is a material violation of the Lease
  The standardized move out instruction letter served January 22, 2024, outlined what needed to be done in the apartment prior to moving out:
  You are responsible for returning the apartment home to its condition at time of move in, as              you will be assessed charges for cleaning and damages beyond normal wear and tear.
  Guidance to prepare your home for your move-out was provided in a timely manner; as this was       not followed charges were assessed to the account.
  
  The apartment home was not returned to ************ based on the standardized move out instructions served to the household on January 22nd, 2024, as well as being charged the cost of utilities that were not maintained in the residents name during the lease term.
  Thank you,
  Malabar ***************

  I am rejecting this response because:

  A. I don't care about how I left the apartment (in which it wasn't left no where near awful). I care that for the last 5-6 months of my lease, I had to continuously email the office and call the corporate office about a water bill that continued to fluctuate from $80 to 130 then down to $68 and then up to $92. Etc. You cannot actually sit here and say there wasn't an issue with the water usage. Something was not right. I asked for this to be investigated many times and nobody did anything but make excuses and/or not get back to me. 
  

  B. The office manager ****** clearly needs to retrain her staff. On many occasions I was provided incorrect directions and information during my lease and moving out. If she's the one who completed my "charges on move out" she even added in $50 oil stain without properly investigating to see that the stain was there before I moved in. (Which ****** has notified me that this is being corrected)

  C. Corporate office lacks communication completely!!!! I've called them 3-4 times and submitted cases. Not once, in the last 3 months, has ANYONE called me or emailed me.  Not acceptable! 

  
  Sincerely,

  This is in response to Complaint ID: ********

  We have reviewed all of the documentation with the property and the findings are:
  

  1. Water usage: We have reviewed your usage from 10/30/2023 thru 01/28/2024.  There were spikes from the end of November to beginning of December but then your usages normalized.
  There was no high usage in January and usage was minimal from mid-February to your move out date. A service charge of $50 and electric usage of $41.22 was also charged to this account because the
  electric account was discontinued prior to your move out.

  2. The charge for the parking space stain and late fee have already been rescinded and an additional check for $145.00 is being mailed to you.

  3. A copy of the move out instructions were provided to you when you submitted your Notice to Vacate. If your bundle included a carpet cleaning, this is not eligible to be used during this final portion of your lease term. We do not show any correspondence prior to this asking about carpet cleaning. This charge is valid.

  4. Pictures from the move out inspection were reviewed, and this this charge is valid.

  Based on these findings, no additional refund, other than the $145.00, is due.

  If you have any further questions, please feel free to call us at ************, select option #1 for Resident Services, then select option #1 for Resident Refunds.

  In January 2024 my water was shut off by the water company due to excess use possibly due to a leak. Subsequently, the apartment complex fixed the plumbing issue in my bathroom and services were restored. I just recently received a bill from the water company for $1,200 due to the leak. I brought the issue up to the site manager and was dismissed as the issue was fixed and they cannot do anything about the water bill. I am a single mom barely getting by. The apartment is a low income apartment and that alone should tell them i don't have the income to pay for this bill without assistance. I have been threatened with a shut-off notice and have gone into an agreement with the water company to pay the debt off, but i'm scared that i will not be able to keep up. After my communication to the site manager about the assistance to pay the water bill, instead of a resolution to my issue she decided to send me warning about standards of my housekeeping and threats of more bills and possible eviction if i don't comply. It was her form of harassment to get me to back down. I just learned today from the water company that my next bill will be $700 stemming from the same issue. I cannot afford the bill and I cannot afford to move. The plumbing issue that caused this overuse of water was not under my control. I should not be held responsible for plumbing issues for a rental.

  Business Response

  Date: 03/25/2024

  We are sorry to hear your concerns regarding your water bill.  A work order was submitted on 1/26/24 for a running toilet and a repair was completed the same day. No additional work order requests were submitted regarding high water bills or concerns over water leaks again until 3/5/2024 when an email was sent regarding a high bill and within this email you refused to allow anyone access to your apartment.  A notice was sent notifying you that the team would be entering due to the nature of your concern and have entered your unit to address the water concerns. 
  The letter regarding housekeeping was sent on 3/4/2024, prior to your email on 3/5/2024 notifying the office of your water bill concern so I can assure you this notice had nothing to do with you notifying the team of your issue as it is our goal to always address any work orders as timely as possible, and we require residents to notify us of maintenance concerns promptly as indicated in your lease agreement.
  We have attempted to reach out to you by email and phone to discuss your concerns and have not received a response. Please contact the office directly so we can ensure your concerns are taken care of.

  I would like to start off by saying ever since I started living at the **************************** 3 years ago I havent had any issues until concord rents changed there management here the management at the leasing office are very cruel over there residents . Not only they try to make your stay here unpleasant but there very disrespectful towards there residents , Last week I encountered a few problems but the worst was the way the manager at the leasing office spoke to me and also how the assistant manager harassing me for every little thing he finds a way to send me a letter and lie about things to make the residence feel bad how are you going to treat your residence unwelcome when they are paying a way to stay in your community there has been multiple residents that end up leaving these apartments because of the mistreat and I just want to see who would be willing to help the Concorde management is not the issue its the management that they have at the leasing office to handle these apartments. I feel that if they were willing to put another person into their position things would be very differently. I would also like to report ************************* at the leasing office he has been not harassing me, but lying and rude he doesnt know how to treat his residence and because of that this will be my last year here they find a way to try to take money out of me and stay with the money and thats unacceptable. I would like to see how this could be issued and fixed, because this year would be very mentally depression for me and I cant take any more so I decided to write a letter to you to see if theres any way I could get help .

  The company seems to keep adding on additional charges when they feel like it I understand late fees when appropriate but I was given an explanation over the phone that I had a late fee for something that was not part of the bill until after I paid the bill. I don't understand a late fee for something that wasn't placed on the full rental bill and when asking for a breakdown or print out corporate told me to reach out to the main office and the main office told me that they will not do it. If I pay for services I feel like I have a right to see what I am paying for even if it's something that's paid for already they are charging me for fees in February on my March bill which I already have paid. I want to see the breakdown of this rather than just being told what's on my bill over the phone this feels deceitful not to able to present me with the charges that I have paid for. It is all too easy to say It's another charge if I can't see it on paper. I think it is unethical to charge a late fee for something when I have already paid the bill and then tell me that it was pending still and after it was finished pending it was added onto my bill and was given 24 hours to pay it and yet I was not notified that anything else was owed. There is not an option to pay a partial bill on their website or even in person therefore all the chargers should be present when I go to pay my rent. This seems like a very shady tactic and not one of a business that is forthcoming and trustworthy. I cannot gauge exactly what I am owed when I can't see what I have paid for they have told me over the phone that I pay the 109 for February and now on this month's bill I'm being charged the 109 again this makes no sense.

  I need for someone in upper management to assist with my problem me and my daughter have no current lease. A new manager came in around November of 2023 the 3rd one for the year and she started making changes I guess one of her changes must be to get rid of section 8 tenants. A notice came saying we couldn't get leases until we renewed with rhino a company that offers insurance as guarantee of a security deposit. This is what we had when we moved in. Then because we didn't renew with rhino we needed to pay a $1,000 security deposit in order to get our leases renewed. A manager who says she has 20 yrs experience and don't understand the concept of a lease. The rhino policy we had expired because it guaranteed our most recent lease that expired 12/31/2023. It couldn't renew until a new lease was added by the landlord to rhino. The other thing is how can you pay a security deposit if there is no current lease since it guarantees the lease for any damage to the unit. Also did I mention that the manager blocked our rent portals so you can't pay your portion of rent.

  Business Response

  Date: 02/29/2024

  Resident has been contacted several times and made aware of how to resolve this matter,to which has yet to be resolved by the resident. Security Deposits are a requirement and must be paid in full should a Rhino policy lapse or be cancelled.  The Rhino and deposit requirements are outlined in the addendum signed by the resident with the initial lease. The *** office and residents caseworker is also aware and advising the resident on how to rectify the situation. Due to the lapse of Rhino coverage, and no resolution being made by the resident, a new lease is unable to initiated. Leases go into a holdover Month to Month status once they lapse so all terms of the lease remain.

  I have already contacted the onsite manager and leasing agent and no one cares to fix the issue. I am bringing HUD into the matter this company has many complaints online about them scamming people. They stated themselves that you go month using the same lease. My and my daughter's rent amount was $*****. I have listed that the company has accepted a HUD payment of ***** for my rent which is above *****, I don't owe any rent to them. My daughter's HUD payment which they accepted was $944 her payment would be $117 which brings her to the $ ***** but they are charging her $317. They didn't include that they have blocked the rental portal so she can't pay for portion. The rhino insurance which guaranteed the lease from 1/01/2023 - 12/31/2023 didn't lapse it expired when the lease did. How rhino works the landlord submits a lease to rhino and then ***** sends an email to the tenant an invitation to accept pay whether monthly of in full. My daughter and myself chose in full mine was $349 and hers I believe was $395. The office staff is new so maybe they may not be aware of how the rhino works. They have refused to renew me or my daughter's lease. Our HUD case worker should have notified to stop payment of rent because there was no lease. HUD doesn't do month-month and anyone in Concord Rents should know this. I am pretty sure that HUD has already paid them for March as well. These people has been charging me $117 for rent,  $11 for renter insurance, late fees and $***** security deposit with a bal. Of $1,698.25 my daughter is being charged $317 for rent $11 for renter insurance, ***** security deposit and late fees. What is funny is I don't owe any money and my daughter can't pay her portion of $117 because they blocked the rental portal from accepting payment. I forgot to mention that they brought all of the tenants accounts that were with Xfinity. They are now adding $59 to your rental bill.  They now have included a $55 Internet  to by account portal. They said to sign up to get the Internet with them which I didn't yet there is a charge on my account. I am a disabled person who gets a benefit amount of $1213 a month my Xfinity bill was $29 total for phone (landline) and internet. There is no why I would pay $59 if I could.

  I applied to Belle Isle apt because their website said they had an apartment available. I knew the application fee wasn't refundable but I didn't care because the apartment was showing available. They then asked me for more money to hold my apartment until they process my application and said that money was refundable if I didn't qualify. The next day I received a call from someone from their office saying that the apartment is not available and that they will keep my money so they can put me on their waiting list. I told them that I needed a place asap and I don't have money like that just to be put on a waiting list that I wanted a refund. They said they were going to send me a check back because I threatened to report them to the board but they never sent me the money back. I contacted my bank and told them that I was illegally charged and the bank put the money back into my account. Now months later they send this to my credit report as a collection and that brought my score down 14 points. I believe they sold this to a collection agency. I would like for them to remove this from my account or pay me what they are charging me so I can pay this collection.

  ****************** applied to Belle Isle on 5/17/2023.  Her application and holding fees were paid with a credit card.  When applying for our apartments, the application process provides this disclaimer regarding availability:

  Pricing, terms, fees, conditions and availability are subject to change daily without notice and subject to application approval.

  Because there was no availability, the deposit was marked to be refunded.  Our records indicate a voicemail was left for ****************** by the leasing staff.  However, on 5/22/2023, ****************** disputed the charges with her credit card company for both the application fee and holding fee and the account was referred to our Collections department.  A letter was sent to ****************** 7/27/2023 regarding the amount owed.  No response was received and the account was turned over to a 3rd party collections agency.  

  Any further communication regarding this debt should be directed to *************** Systems at **************.

  I got a collection notice from Parc Hill apts for $90. Ive never lived there. Supposedly this is for an application fee.

  ************** started an application for ******************** on March 27, 2002.  A $90 application fee is charged when applying and it is noted on the application screen that the $90 fee is non-refundable.  In accepting this and continuing with the application, ************** was responsible for the fee.  ************** disputed this charge on her debit card on 4/17/2022 although it was a legitimate charge.  Due to this, the account was placed in Collections and subsequently to a third party collection agency.

  I am rejecting this response because: I never submitted the application. No background check was run on me from your business, so what is the $90 for? I never signed any lease or documents saying that I agreed to paying an application fee. How can you charge an application fee if a background check or application was never run? If I had submitted an application I would have been notified by your company if I was approved or not, and I was never contacted by anyone in your company notifying me of the outcome of my application. You cant ************ money from people who never agreed to pay for the services in the first place.

  Business Response

  Date: 01/31/2024

  As noted in the previous response, ************** started her application for ******************** on March 27, 2022.  The application includes an Application Acknowledgement which must be completed and e-signed prior to payment of the $90 application fee.  A copy of the Application Acknowledgment is attached.  We also have the result of the pre-screening which indicated she was pre-approved.  This is not done without signature of the applicant.  The payment confirmation was sent to ************** via email so she was notified that she had applied and the payment was made.  Consequent to this, she disputed the charge.  Again, the ************** indicates very clearly that the $90 application fee is non-refundable.
