Tom and Linda are extremely unprofessional!!! They ran a credit check on me before I moved into one of their rental homes. I paid $800.00 a month and $800.00 deposit. After I moved in I saw that the house was bug infested. I called them several times and they finally came out to spray. It didn’t take care of the bug problem so I had to call them again and again. In over the year that I stayed there they showed up one other time to spray but it still didn’t take care of the bug situation. They took their time coming over if something wasn’t working properly in the house. The attic door had fallen down and I asked them for over a month to fix it, in the middle of summer, the heat was pouring into the house, and I had to prop a ladder on top of a box in the middle of the bedroom just to keep the attic door shut. The dishwasher broke and they never fixed it, the pantry door fell off the hinges and they never fixed it, someone tried to break in and the front door wasn’t closing properly and they didn’t fix it. Linda told me that she wouldn’t fix anything unless it was in writing. I wrote her a letter and left it in the deposit box, along with my rent check. She got my check but I guess she never got my letter. Funny how that happened. She’s also supposed to BY LAW give 24-48 hrs notice before showing up at the house, but she always came over unannounced or would call on her way over. One morning I woke up to hear voices in my backyard, which startled me, and there she was w/two men who were tearing down the swing set. She said she called and left a vm but I was sleeping bc I work nights. When I checked my vm she had called only 45 mins before she showed up. She and Tom also told me after I’d been there the full yr of my lease that I broke the lease bc I didn’t write to them 30 days before the end of the lease to tell them I was moving. Which was a lie. I had also been calling them for weeks to see if I could stay just a couple more months and Tom waited three weeks to call me back to say I could. They took a check from me for another month’s rent and said they could keep the $800 dep for my next month’s rent, which I agreed to. Linda told me I could stay in the house until Oct 31 for that last month. I was happy w/that arrangement. Then I came home on Oct 6th after work at 1:00 a.m. in the morn to find an eviction notice on my door saying that I had 3 days to get out!!! She said she never told me she could keep my deposit for rent bc that was illegal. She’s a thief and a liar and so is Tom. These people will steal your money, lie to you, and ruin your credit if you rent from them!!!!!!!
