I have been paying $1199 in rent every month since December. In February, I realized there was a significant leak in my bathroom, which has since led to the growth of mold. Due to the incompetent staff at **************************, I had to call the emergency maintenance line to get someone to assess the situation. A gentleman by the name of **** showed up, and cut a section of the bathroom wall out in order to get to the leak/get rid of some of the mold. I have been living with a hole in my bathroom wall, and a torn up bathroom floor for 3 months now. The office ignores my phone calls, voice mails and emails. I do not have the time to go to the office every day to ensure that my issues will be taken care of.Initial Complaint

I was lied to saying a low credit score wasn't going to lower my chance at getting an apartment here. I asked this three separate times, twice over the phone and once during my walkthrough. I was told as long as I had a credible work history, reliable paycheck, no prior evictions/collections, and a clean background check, I will be approved for the apartment. I felt like I was lied to just so they could make money off their application fee. It took them a while just to send back the deposit. It wasn't until I threatened them with the police that they finally sent it a month later. They fail to answer phone calls or emails. They are honestly the worst place to rent from and very unprofessional. It's irritating when places like DePaul Management takes advantage to those looking for a roof over their heads. Stay away from this company and place your money elsewhere.Customer Answer

From about September 2022 to present day, there has been an ongoing water leak when it rains in my apartment. I have take multiple photos and videos which have been forwarded to Depaul Managment Groups (****************************) repair and managment office emails. Little effort has been taken to remedy this ongoing water and and now very possible growth of mold in my apartment. The water leak is still active when it rains. Ceiling is crumbling, carpet gets wet and base boards discolored. There have been multiple attempts to contact Depaul Managment Company by email, phone call and in person at thier offices with no respone from Depaul Managment Company. I am worried that due to the water damage and ongoing active leak that this is becoming a major helath hazard.Customer Answer

I have collections from a time that I had to evacuate my apartment because it was not suitable for living. There were cockroaches, the heat was always breaking, it took maintenance days to respond to calls, their were always issues with the neighbors and noise levels that weren't ever addressed. I tried to discuss this with management, but they were of no help. There is over $7,000 in collections over this. It is interfering with my credit and finding a suitable place to live. Please advise how we can fix that. Thank you!!Initial Complaint

I live at *************** Apartments which is managed by DePaul Management. I have mold and mildew growing under the tub which smells so bad. I have health issues and should not and cannot be breathing this in. I reported this to leasing and they put deodorizer on it which is only a quick fix because the smell is back. I am frustrated they raised my rent and will not fix this issue correctly. I asked them to not raise my rent because of this and they declined. These buildings are old and I can only imagine how many other buildings have them too. I try to go to DePaul management about this but all emails are routed to the leasing office here. I was told by a former employee that they have too many maintenance requests and at the end of the month whatever they didn’t get to, they delete and mark as taken care of even though it was not. What can I do to get this addressed?Customer Answer

Hello, I am filing a complaint against DePaul management which is the company of my apartment complex ***** ********* apartments. I have been requesting maintenance on my apartment for months now and no one has contacted me, or even responded to my emails. There is no one ever in the office, and they do not answer phone calls. My toilet isnt filling up with water, or sink in my bathroom fills up with water/water does not drain. If I run the shower my sink fills up with whatever gunk is down there, The shower constantly flows water to where it is now eroded with water damage. The water is constantly cold and I have to contact emergency maintenance to turn on hot water which takes about an hour. I pay good money to live here and I get nothing in return. I have been dealing with these issues for months now because no one has come out or gotten back to me as to when a maintenance man will be coming.I had to call emergency maintenance to get someone out here on a Saturday because no one was helping me solve this issue. **** from Emergency told me that its a plumbing issue and must be fixed during the week and I have gotten nothing in return since. This complex needs new management, and something has to be done about this. My supporting documents show multiple emails sent to Maintence to get this resolved since 9/12/22 and I still havent received anythinghelp.Customer Answer
