PeakCampus under PeakMade Real Estate has put the remainder of a lease on my credit.According to NRS *******, a landlord must make reasonable efforts to re-rent a dwelling unit after a tenant vacates. The statute prohibits the collection of double rent from both a vacating tenant and a new tenant, and landlords may only charge actual damages until the unit is re-rented. Turning in keys or providing written notice initiates the landlords duty to mitigate damages by re-renting the unit.Renovation and re-rental: The unit was renovated shortly before I vacated, receiving new flooring and carpet, which made it ready for re-rental by the time I moved out on 11/30/2018. The other half of the unit was vacated in August and re-rented by November, following renovations in October.Incorrect placement in collections: The lease was placed into collections on 08/01/2018, yet I continued to reside in the unit until early December. Attached is a five-day notice issued on 10/05/2018, showing that I was still occupying the premises at that time. Additionally, I have included rent invoices from November 2018 through January 2019. These documents demonstrate that the account was incorrectly placed in collections as of August ********* of property: The property was sold in June 2019, as indicated in the attached deed. As per the law, I cannot be held responsible for any lease obligations beyond the sale date.I request that this information be considered during the dispute investigation to ensure the report accurately reflects my rental history. I have also reached out to Conservice for payment records related to my account. Additionally, I have attempted to contact ********** multiple times but have not yet received a response.While I agree a lease break fee is owed the remaining lease contact is not.Initial Complaint

Cleaning fees of $70 were assessed at my daughter's move out from her apartment. I am the guarantor. After submitting videos of the apartment conditions from move-in, I was advised by ******* ****** that the $70 in cleaning fees would be refunded (August 2, 2024 email). On August 27, I followed up with a phone call as no refund had been received. I was advised there was an oversight by the manager and was assured the refund would be issued. As no refund had still not been received, I called the office again on September 16. I was advised the refund was noted as "pending with corporate." I asked for the phone number for "corporate." I was advised she did not have their telephone number but she gave me the email address for *** ******** at Asset Living. I emailed Ms. ******** September 18 but received no response. I also left a voice mail message for her September 25, also receiving no response. I am requesting the $70 refund be issued immediately to my daughter, the tenant, or myself, the guarantor. I can submit a copy of the emails and move-in/out videos if needed. It appears the cleaning fees are assessed without any actual consideration of the apartment conditions as I requested photographic or video evidence serving as the basis for the cleaning fees, but my request was ignored.Initial Complaint

My daughter lives in one of PeakMade properties, Theory of **********. I am writing to ask for your help solving a very concerning situation.I visited my daughter this weekend and was appalled at the amount of garbage in the trash rooms, the hallways, and the overfilled dumpsters. In the 3 days I was in town nothing was picked up. Since I left, my daughter says the situation has gotten much worse. The smell in the hallways, the stains in the carpet and the unsanitary conditions are beyond description. My daughter did not want to contribute to the problem so she had a weeks worth of garbage in her apartment that I had to take with me to my hotel dumpster. The apartment management sent an email on August 22 that they were aware of the problem, were working tirelessly to solve the situation, hiring additional help to clear the garbage and take control of the problem. I can tell you, in 3 days nothing was done. The garbage just continued to accumulate.I am not sure if you have children, but imagine you left your 19-year-old daughter in what you thought was a safe place to live, you dutifully pay the $1300 a month rent in what is supposed to be an upscale apartment and come to find out that she is living in filth. This is beyond comprehension.Initial Complaint

I was charged for damage that I never committed to the apartment. They charged for the blinds, my couch, and paint. I talked to someone about the couch because we had wear and tear. They noted it down and told me not to worry about it. The blinds were cheap and pretty much broke when I opened them. Also, theyre a bunch of scammers for the paint. I took photos, but you honestly cant tell there is damage to the paint. They are a horrible business that takes peoples money and charge them for damage that they dont commit. They must be held accountable for their behavior.Initial Complaint

Hidden Policies and Unethical Practices at Station 42 As a freshman at USF, my experience with Station 42 has been highly stressful and disappointing. I toured the model apartment, which appeared clean and free of roaches and mold, so I decided to apply and sign a lease. However, within three days, after reading numerous reviews mentioning ***** infestations, mold, and safety concerns, I decided to cancel my lease and move into the dorms instead.The issues began when I attempted to cancel the lease. I signed on a Tuesday and called on Friday to withdraw, only to be told that no manager was available. This continued into the weekend, and by Sunday, I was informed via their website that I would have to pay two months' rent to cancel. Despite multiple attempts to resolve the situation, including a call on Monday when I was told their system was down, I was eventually informed that I had 72 hours after signing to cancel without penaltya policy that was never disclosed to me during the application process or in any of the leasing documents I reviewed.Despite notifying them over a month before my move-in date, Station 42 still demanded $1,910 and that they would report me to a collection agency for an apartment I had never even moved into. This unjust financial burden, coupled with the stress of the entire ordeal, has significantly impacted the start of my college journey.I strongly urge Station 42 to waive these unjust fees and update their rental contracts to disclose the 72-hour cancellation policy. These changes will prevent future renters from facing the same issues I did.Initial Complaint

Date of transaction: The money is paid by the apartment rental deposit, the financial move-out statement is Amount of Money: I paid $843.24 for cleaning and damaging.What's the dispute: I was living in CampusCircle for 3 years. Before I finish my rental and leave the apartment, I was charged unfairly about many things including every room's cleaning, every room's trash removal, every room's painting, carpet replacement, carpet cleaning. It's so weird that 1. I kept clean in every room, weird to charge every room's cleaning and trash removal. 2. they both charge carpet replacement and carpet cleaning. This is definitely unfair. I need the evidence of every item. 3. My carpet is in not very good condition when I lived in, it's unfair to charge me when I leave just keep it the same condition.Whether the business tried to resolve: they send me some photos as evidence, but these photos obviously not cover all items they charge me, and I even think whether these photos are from my room (for example they provide me a photo of very dirty carpet (even dirtier than what it looks like in real, although I admit it's already not in good condition), which is definitely not my room (it's so dirty that obviously I cannot live with it for 3 years)) I attached the move-out statement and "evidence" they send to me. Unfortunately I forget to take photo before I leave. I really get a ****** from this :(Business Response

Currently I'm not satisfied with what they replied. My concern is:
1. I need the evidence of everything they charged me.
2. I need them to explain why I was charged both the carpet shampoo fee and carpet replacement fee.
3. I need them to explain that what happened to the restroom picture, are there any trash inside it? why I was charged trash fee there? And all other trash fee?
4. I need the evidence that the dirty carpet picture is taken of my home. I'm curious who made it so dirty and also curious whether it is indeed my home. I'm sure it's much dirtier than it should be.
I hope all further communications can be here.

My name is ***********************, and I am a 19-year-old student currently in my second year of pre-med. I recently signed a lease for an apartment at ************ in ********, ******, and I am writing to express serious concerns about the condition of the apartment I moved into.Upon taking possession of the apartment, I discovered several significant issues, including:Mold on Ceilings: There is visible mold on the ceilings in both the living room and bedroom areas. When I raised this concern with the apartment management, they dismissed it as dust and advised me to use mold spray. I believe this response is inadequate and that the mold presents a potential health risk.Unsanitary Living Conditions: The apartment was handed over in an extremely dirty state. The bathroom is unclean, the cabinets are broken, the balcony is filthy, and the exterior area is poorly maintained. This level of cleanliness is far below what is acceptable for a rental property.Initial Complaint

On 7/31/2024, I paid my first months rent to the Landings at ************************* for a promised move in date (as specified in the lease agreement) of 8/22/2024. I arrived on the date of move in at approximately 1:30 pm only to be told that my assigned room (0213-C) was not ready to be moved into, as the flooring in the bathroom needed to be redone. I talked to multiple property managers and staff to receive a new assignment and after 4 hours, and never received one, requiring me to travel back to ************ to stay for the night. I returned 8/23/2024 at approximately 2 pm to receive my unit. I waited About 3 hours for a new unit. When I finally received the unit, it had not been cleaned from the previous tenant and was not in the condition promised. It was dirty, had a fruit fly infestation, and was in disrepair, as noted in my inspection of the unit. Additionally, I had no hot water in this unit (1822-A). As there was a breach of contract, I would like either part or all of my first months rent as reimbursement.
