They don't take care of their rental properties in Hartford CT. Their buildings are infested with rats/mice, bed bugs, and roaches. There's black mold growing throughout the building, there's lead in the paint, cloudy drinking water, electrical issues, the conditions are inhumane, yet they still collect our rent payments and start an eviction if we complain to the city about the conditions. They drive luxury cars, and take lavish vacations with our hard earned money, making us live like we're in a 3rd world country. Connecticut doesn't want these slumlords in their state, it's an embarrassment.
Do not rent from these people. I tried renting an apartment and they list the price as $1,325 then tried to increase it to $1,514 after I told them I gave my landlord notice and I wanted to move in. Then blame the increase on renovation and marketing.
Here is the email thread below:
Me: Hey Lucia,
I noticed on the application requirements the rental amount is $1,400 but on the site where I saw the listing, the amount is $1,325. Is this correct ?
Park Property Management: Hi
Yes that’s correct however It says starting from and since we are doing renovations it is$1400. Let me know if you still interest .
Thanks
Me: I will come tomorrow around 630. I also need to bring a certified check of $2,800 (first and last) correct?
Park Property Management: Sure come in tomorrow at 630 pm its $1450+65 =1515*2= 3030 that’s for the fist and last month . we are doing mayor renovations .
Me: I'm a bit confused, the monthly fee is 1450 now?
Park Property Management: Yes it is we are doing full renovations , as I mention on the phone I don’t make the marketing target . I have to follow what they send me .
My apologies .
Think about it and let me know soon .
Me: No need to apologize, you are not at fault. I just feel the "marketing strategy" the marketing team employs is not very ethical. Making my landlord fill out that form forces me to give him a moving date. Then raising the price twice (1,400-1,450) and again before finalization comes off as shakedown tactics. I am certain renovation costs were forecast before the ad was posted. I will think about it and I will let you know by Saturday if that's not too late.
