      You're responsible for paying $4357.53. I was a great resident at **** ***** *** ***** **** ** for 6 years. Here are some of the evidence I have to support my case. Review the documents thoroughly. Based on those documents, Plantation at Horse Pen, LLC violated articles 32 and 42 which resulted in recurrent water leaks from the apartment immediately above my apartment on those dates: 8/15/17; 10/21/17; 12/17/21, and they failed to provide 24-hours maintenance for each event just like the most recent water leak I had experienced on April 20th, 2021. Maintenance damaged my personal property by over-spraying toxic Kilz without covering my personal belongings in the bathroom. Maintenance also failed to inform me prior to spraying toxic Kilz (https://www.kilz.com/binaries/content/assets/kilz/pdf/msds/1009-kilz-original-int-ext-low-voc-sds.pdf).

      Furthermore, Plantation at Horse Pen, LLC did not promptly respond to many inquiries I filed to resolve the ongoing water leak and damaged personal property due to their maintenance negligence. My personal property would not have been damaged if Plantation at Horse Pen, LLC maintenance staff provided proper maintenance in the first place.

      Plantation at Horse Pen, LLC community manager, Ellen H******, spoke with my family attorney and agreed to reimburse for damaged personal property. However, I have not received the refund. Instead, your lawyer sent a letter with a false statement. Again, you're responsible for paying $4357.53.

      When work orders were placed by this resident appropriate
      action was taken place.  The resident sought out an attorney and so did
      the property.  Our attorney responded to their claim on 9/2/2021.  We
      have still not heard a response back from them or their legal team in regard to
      this matter.

      We have provided all documented information to you regarding your service requests.  Please reach out directly to the site
      team for additional information/questions.

       I am rejecting this response because:

       


      No, you didn't. I have submitted all coreponsing emails I had with site managers. What your attorney indicated is not correct - He did not provide supporting documents either because you don't have them. 

      I am simply asking you to submit the physical documents if you have them. If you keep indicating false testimony here via BBB, provide the contact information of your attorney or your supervisor for me to discuss. Furthermore, provide your full name and title.

      I put a refundable deposit down on an apartment back in spring of this year and was told in explicit terms that the $200 would be refunded but the $35-$65 processing fee would not be. I felt comfortable doing this and asked multiple times if the $200 would be refunded which they said yes to. They did not have the apartment I wanted available until too late, so I requested the $200 deposit via text message back in May which they said okay to and asked for my address for the check. I never received the refund. I requested many many times over the months since then and have still not received it and then they stopped communicating altogether which is what I take most issue with.

      applied to live at Hawthorne at Haywood and canceled her application after our
      72-hour cancellation policy (which we typically do not refund fees after that
      72-hour point).  However, she was told by one of our staff members that we
      would refund this fee to her.  This refund was processed and submitted to
      our accounting department on 7/22/2022.  However, we had some staffing
      transitions in our accounting department around this time and this refund was
      missed.  We mailed the check on 8/9 and we are following up with this
      applicant to ensure they have received their refund.

      In my apt complex the water sprinkler system has put hard water spots on my vehicle. It is on half of it very badly. The sprinkler system is pointed towards the vehicles by the bushes. I did not know what it was at first and realized it was from it do to me always backing my car up on the side where sprinkler is. I have pictures of damage. I brought to property managers attention as well as regional manager but because I’m the only one to complain off this. They say it did not come from them. Despite another tenant and I standing in front of property manager that has only lived here a little over a month said she stopped parking there so to sprinkler has spots on her car. I talked to another tenant and he said he noticed on his car and wife’s car but did not know what it was until now. He will be writing a statement. They need to pay for the spots to be removed. I gave receipt of $120 where I had someone attempt to get it off and didn’t work. Now they need to give me $856 the total to get car sanded down to get this off my car. I have pictures of other cars here that have spots just on half of car parked by those trees where sprinkler system is

      Please know that we have previously addressed Ms. ******’s
      concerns regarding the water spots on her vehicle.  Although Ms. ****** disagrees with our
      determination, there is simply no evidence that our sprinkler system caused the
      alleged damage.  Since we have never had
      a previous occurrence of this nature at the property prior, this is an anomaly.  Moreso, as a vehicle is mobile by its very
      nature and is not in our possession, we have no control over where it has been
      driven nor to what conditions it has been exposed during the time period when
      these spots first appeared.  As always,
      Hawthorne strives to provide exceptional customer service, but regrettably in
      these case, we cannot agree to compensation when no real proof exists that the
      loss was a result of fault on the community’s behalf.

       I am rejecting this response because:  

      I have enjoyed almost 7 years of being at Hawthorne at the Glen.  So I don’t want to bash whomever owns the company.  They have done an awesome job with maintenance for me, I put in my order and they come 99% of the time the first day, lol, 1% the second day.  So, beautiful apartments.  The management has never been ugly to me at either locations.  What hurts me is that the complaint I made had no other people to step forward about it.  It took me months to realize what the issue is.  Once I brought it to the Property Managers attention, her remarks over the phone was “I’ve had that happen at other complexes but not here.” Then, she was in the conversation about my issue, when another woman that lives there joins the conversation and when manager said the issue to her, she immediately said, oh, that’s why I stopped parking there.” Yet, you take my case of, oh no that can’t happen.  Your own employee has been in this situation before, witnessed a statement.  Yet, you did nothing.  That should hurt your conscience.  So Hawthorne Properties would rather wait till more people come up to complain and potentially put more money out rather than settle with one.  In actuality, I had two things of proof that your own employee has acknowledged, but I’m lying and supposedly there is no way of that happening.  So, my only issue is the ethics of certain people.  My whole 7 yrs I was not a problematic tenant.  I made sure I was 100% positive about my complaint before making it.  I talked to myself saying Kisha are you sure?  Then to have things to happen which confirmed my case.  I saw that I was correct.  But, again beautiful place to stay!  Thanks ??
