In April,2007, my fiance & I moved to THESE apartments.The landscape &
scenery is beautiful; upon moving in, we noticed a dripping noise in the upstairs
bathroom.We made a complaint with the rent office & they sent maintenence out to
inspect the problem.We were told that the noise that we hear is: what he referred
to as: an over flow in the plumbing lines. After living there for three months;
not only did the dripping noise became louder,we began to notice a foul odor,
coming from the a/c unit.Each time we turned on our air conditioner;we'd smell this
odor that is similar to: a sour mop that has been sitting in mildew.On the second
complaint,maintenence returned & they ordered a deodorizer to spray into the unit.
2 weeks later, the odor returned & i had to get something in writing from my doctor,
to take to the rental office.So from there;the apartment manager placed a work
order for:the unit & duct work to be cleaned.These guys came out & they cleaned the ducts & they cleaned the carpet.A week later; the odor returned & at that point;
I threatened to call my attorney, so: the apartment manager had the health department
to come out & test the air quality.however, since then the odor has gotten worst.We haven't been running our a/c but we can now smell the odor while it's off.We have to close all of our a/c vents to trap the odor inside,but it's not helping.This odor is so bad until it's embedded into our clothes & furniture.. Each time I return home,I can notice this odor as soon as I open my door.when I go upstairs into my bedroom;my sinuses become imflamed & the close up on me,making it very hard for me to breathe. I suffer from a very serious & chronic sinusitus condition,I've had three surguries.I can not be around: heavy dust,smoke nor any type of air borne pollutants. of course,these things are everywhere,outside; but it is very dangerous to my health;for me to be subjected to these things in a closed environment.Since I've been here,My sinusitus condition is not improving.I WILL NOT DISCLOSE THE FINDINGS FROM THE
AIR QUALITY TEST that was done in Sept.2007 & I will not recommend THESE
apartments to those who has:sinusitus,respiratory illnesses nor allergic reactions.
The managers has treated our complaints as if they were not serious & they did not
do anything to correct this problem.They'll allow us to: break our lease without being charged for it; but they won't give us our deposit back.They'll relocate us to a new apartment at A NEW UNIT & put our deposit towards it;but we'll have higher rent. WE WILL BE SEEKING TO SUE OUR LANDLORD FOR NEGLIGENCE. THIS APARTMENT HAS BEEN MAKING ME SICK & THEY TRYED TO COVER IT UP.
