The dishwasher is completely broken does not work and it is leaking. I asked them multiple times to change it or get it out the house the promised me in a week it will be out. Im still trying to get it out. The stove does not work properly and the top of the stove is misused and old. I asked for a new one they said they would give me one and still did not. The kitchen tiles are broken and there are huge holes and cracks in the floor. There are mice and roaches The bathroom has mold I told them about it they came and painted over it.

It is almost 100 degrees in this apt. I have severe asthma and have been having issues since I moved in this place. They provided only 2 box fans for a 3 bedroom. The only things that I'm being told is they don't have the parts to fix it. The law is that it is above the moderate temperature and almost 100 degrees in this unit. They told me to go through my renters insurance to seek help out of this heat. Please contact me back by 7/3/2023 or I promise I will send this to Every news channel in the nation. Rent is extremely too expensive to deal with this dump called apartment. I will tell anyone that this is TORTUREBusiness Response

I moved out of ********* at *********** on 06/01/2023. I left the apartment in a really great shape. They are charging me for Stove Cleaning ($60), Microwave ($25), Carpet ($60), Lamintaed countertops replacement ($150), Bath tub reglazing ($150), and blind ($25). They were charging me more but had to remove because I caught them. When you renew the lease they dont charge you for carpet cleaning and microwave but it is imposed as a punishment on you when you move out. The kitchen countertops are reglazed and they cant be protected because they are glazed with laminated sheet. Had they been made of quartz or granite, it would be easy to clean and they would be permanent. Laminted sheets replacemnet should not be tenants responsibility as its reglazed and as its name suggest, it is temporary and can be reglazed for the new customer. Similarly, if original bathtub is provided without coated glazing, it would be a never be damaged but reglazing does get chipped over time unless tenant takes shower and hold water to drain it directly into the gutter so it does not touch the coating. Hence, this is considered normal wear and tear as tenant really cant do anything to protect them. You cant make tenant pay for something that you install temporary and reglaze with their money to transfer to new occupant. The stove was as old as my age and the cooktop was burned and left yellow because it was painted multiple times. The more you would clean with oven cleaner l, the more paint would come off. The yellow burn on the oven was due to white paint applied over it. I am still struggling to have them take off these charges. Blinds were left in a great shape and no one even pointed to that during my pre move out inspection. However, I am amazed at why they charge for Laminated sheets replacement and reglazing the bath tub. I still carry the videos and photos to prove all these and would definitely go to small clims court if I do not reach the settlement with them.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:the remaining charges included reglazing of Bath Tub. I cant stop the water to stop damaging the bath tub. If it was not glazed and I had damaged the original tub, I would take the responsibility. This makes it normal wear and tear. Similarly, the kitchen countertops were made of lamintaed sheets and no matter how much you clean them, the color comes off. The countertop was not made of granite or quartz that it could be cleaned and shined. The laminated sheets are temporary and considered normal wear and tear. I have paid the balanceto avoid being sent to collections but I will submit a request in the Small claims court of ******** on .ThursdayRegards,

I just move into the apartment home at ****** *** on June 19th 2023. The day I moved in was the same day the leasing staff went to do a walk through of the home which was very sketchy being that just 3 days prior to my move they called me & told me me address that I had secured for months,******************, was not ready & they had to move me. This was already a huge issue with switching over my ***, my mail, my rental insurance & all the other things I had taken care of prior to moving in. On move in day when I got the keys there was so much damage to the apartment home and as I began to unload & open cabinets there were roaches! I have never in my life had to deal with this so this is extremely DISGUSTING. & then when I went to use the microwave it already had a huge burn mark in it which leads me to believe they did not thoroughly inspect the home. When I attempted to warm something up in the microwave, the microwave burst into flames inside. I called and went to the office to request for these things to be fixed/replaced but they have not taken care of it. It has been two weeks now and I still do not have a working microwave. I have tried to be kind and patient but between the roaches & my maintenance request being ignored, I am fed up. The apartment comes with a working microwave. I did not get that when I moved in, so I would like to be compensated for the lack there of. Also, due to the fact that the apartment had roaches in it, it is not move-in ready no one came to exterminate prior to they just moved me into an apartment because something was wrong with ******************* This is truly not fair to me and its truly not fair to my daughter who hast to live here with me. We can’t unpack everything because there’s an exterminator coming off & on and we can’t live comfortably with roaches running around. I am disgusted, & I would like to be moved to another building if that’s a possibility, but at the expense of the apartment home, not my own.Business Response

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: The issues are not all resolved yet. The biggest issue being the roaches. I have spoken with the property manager and we are awaiting more feedback from the reginal manager. Some of the issues in the unit have been fixed by maintenance staff like the microwave and bedroom screen. I am in the process of terminating the lease and I do not want to be charged any fees due to this poor treatment. Once there is an agreement made I will close out this issue as resolved.

Hello ********************,
We apologize for the issue you are having with the AC. However after speaking with our Service Manager he informed us the fan motor was ordered and once that part arrives hopefully today your AC will be fixed. He also informed us there's no gas on the property, you shouldn't be experiencing a gas smell. At no time do we take our residents issues as a joke or likely. The team is working diligently on taking care of all residents that's having AC issues.
Thank you

I moved out of an apartment in August 2022. Never heard from Morgan Properties thereafter. In June 2023, I received a notice they were sending me to collections for unpaid damages to my previous unit. I asked for photos of the alleged damages. I the. Shared the photos/videos of the unit I took on the day I moved out. The damages are not present in my photos. When I pointed this out, the refused to have any conversation on the issue and would only say we stand by our position and the right to collect against you. This place had so many issues while living there, including multiple police responses and a hostage situation in the unit across from mine that ended with someone being taken out on a stretcher and a blood trail down the hall that wasnt cleaned for days.Business Response

I was recently told I would be getting evicted for non payment. I asked for a continuance but it wasn’t specifically stated the time or if I would have to appear. Yesterday, on June 26th, 2023 I received a letter on my door telling me I would need to be out by today, June 27th. The miscommunication regarding the continuance I can accept, however the letter on my door stated that I was contacted via email and phone and was unable to be reached about the move out date. I checked both my email and phone logs and saw no such thing. So I emailed the property assistant manager about my issue. I told her that on such short notice that I had no time to get a ***** truck, gather my belongings or hire a moving company. I have a computer with work related documents, my clothes, personal documents and letters etc still in the apartment. This was ignored and was just told that I missed the court date and when would I be turning in my keys. I still tried to plead with her and she just stopped responding so now I don’t know what to do. I have no place to go and had no time to get any of my belongings that I desperately need.Business Response

I spoke with ************ 6/29/23 regarding this complaint. He was under the impression that the skip check letter we put on his door saying we were going to check his apartment the following day meant that he had to move by the following day. I explained to him that he would have time to remove his belongings from the apartment prior to the writ of possession being filed. And even after the writ is filed there will still be additional time for him to remove his belongings. I apologized if there was confusion and asked him to keep me posted of his progress since he stated he had already started removing items from the apartment. I also let him know if he had any additional questions that he could email me directly.
