  CRS was paid a number of deposits for my temporary housing on **************** the term ended I received the $1000 refund for the furniture but never received the $4800 security deposit from CRS. As was requested I did attempt to contact the owner of the property but as *** experienced I received no response at all. I don't believe that I should pursue the property owner as they insist as they payment of the deposit was to CRS and made by the trustee of the *************************. I want a full refund so the funds can be returned to the trust.

  Hello *******,

  Thank you for reaching out.

  We'd like to clarify that our role was to issue the Property Security Deposit on your behalf to the Landlord. However, the return of the deposit at the end of the rental period is managed directly by the Landlord and the Lease Holder. *** does issue a return letter to the Landlord the day after your move out and provide your information for the return/disposition. As far as the Furniture Deposit goes, this is something handled directly with us and was returned to you directly after moving out. We will have our legal specialist reach out and give you guidance with how to handle things with the property owner.

   

  Thank you,

  Me and the business have been reaching out via text messages not sure why they said I have not been responding I sure have the only why I got them to respond back to my request and multiple voicemails was to say I was going to leave another review and they respond 

  
  

  Reason for not emailing back I do not have access to that email anymore 

  
  

  To resolve I would like the charges removed as I do have them on voice recording admiting it was wrong and they would remove the charges 

  Also they are still sending me letters saying I owe them which at this point is harassment 

   

   

  ould not be charged for it. This company has not communicated or shown any signs of remorse. Just phone calls with threats to debt collectors

  In March 2024 I opened a claim with my insurance, State farm, to repair the damages to my home. When we started the process I met with the claim adjuster. She explained to me that State Farm uses CRS Temporary Housing. The State Farm adjuster explained how they are going to pay CRS Temp. Housing on our behalf $30,000 for what they call living expenses, which covers housing and meals. I was informed by State Farm the $30K is to be managed by CRS Temp. Housing to cover the living expenses while the house is being repaired.State Farm projected the remodeling would be done by August 18. However, the first payment to start the repairs wasn't issued until June 20th. This late payment pushed the renovation back almost one month because the contractor couldn't start the demolition process until he had the first payment for the project. Meanwhile I communicated with State Farm and CRS to look into better and more affordable housing for me and my family before we move into temporary housing. After asking, only one option was presented to me, but it wasn't suitable for my family and I to stay in. On June 6th, 2024, my family and I moved into *************. CRS kept me and my family in the same hotel with the cost being $250 per night per room, and we had two rooms. At that rate the $30,000 wasn't enough, and since the insurance is paying for the services on our behalf I had little to no option on the location of where my family would go. Now, according to the insurance the money for my case is almost all used and there's only $1,000 left to reimburse my family on the meals we've spent money on. We've roughly spent $6,000 for my family of 5, since we've been in temporary housing on June 6th. Additionally, the State Farm and CRS Temp. Housing informed me after August 21st my family and I are on our own and I will be responsible to pay for the living expenses ( housing + meals) for the remainder of the duration of the renovation of my property.

  aiting to hear directly from the vendor so the homeowner could answer the door and facilitate the moving out of the rented furniture. That phone never came nor did anyone make any real attempt to get his attention since he was there waiting in the house for hours that afternoon! So we rescheduled the pick up for a week later to ensure this time I could be there myself in person to again make sure there could be no dispute, however I received a bill from CRS for $350 shortly after for what they say was the cancelled furniture collection the first time since they claim no one was there to allow access, I objected wholeheartedly to the fact that there was and is no dispute mechanism in place for such claims and I also object to the arbitrary amount they have chosen as a fine! $350! No where is the contract I signed does it state $350 as a fine in such circumstance so what prevents them from stating I owe them $5000? They also retracted a statement showing they canceled the charge

  Hello *****,
  
  I hope you are doing well. This is in response to the complaint ID #: ********
  
  CRS was never advised of any damage caused by the furniture vendor upon delivery. CRS was not provided with a move-in checklist; therefore,we have no way to verify that the damages were in fact caused by the furniture vendor. CRS is not a party to the lease agreement therefore any damage would need to be addressed with the tenants directly.
  
  If you could provide CRS with before/after pictures (date stamped) proving that the damage was caused by the vendors, we will remedy this situation immediately. 

  Thank you,

  Upon review of Mr. ************ claim CRS had contacted the furniture vendor and they denied causing any damage to Mr. ************ property. CRS has found no actual proof was provided that the furniture vendor caused damage to Mr. ************ property therefore in good faith CRS is willing to pay ************************** $250.00 towards the damages and once accepted and a release and ****** is signed CRS will send a check directly to **************************.

  Please send over the proposal. CRS is not responsible as we did not cause the damage.
  We will however assist with the resolution as our vendors were involved.
