Good Afternoon ************,
Thanks for allowing me to inspect your home on June 30, 2023. As previously discussed, there was no current leak. However, we have scheduled a contractor to complete the drywall repairs and exterminate your home on July 6th. Your home also has been placed on the extermination list to be treated for the next six weeks.
The service manager has contacted the window company regarding your second bedroom window. The technician will replace/repair the window on July 7, 2023. During the inspection, the service manager told you to contact ***** regarding your ***** thermostat. There were no issues with the HVAC unit.
Thanks again for meeting with *******, the collections manager, today regarding your balance and establishing a payment arrangement. If you should require assistance in the future, please contact me directly at ****************[email protected].
Respectfully,

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is unsatisfactory to me! I have been left with almost no quality of life here at ***************** and while the property manager states he sent out emails dosent change the safety factor! What goes on here island accepted is beyond my comprehension and since these matters have not been addressed I will be moving to a location where safety is not an issue!

On 4/30/23, I emailed property management to try to negotiate the rental increase on our lease due to renew on 8/1/23. They claimed to have spoken with the pricing team and responded that there would be no negotiation. On 6/2/23, I emailed customer service but got no reply. The proposed rent increase is not feasible for us for several reasons, as outlined below.1) Our rent increase on 8/1/22 was 18% more than our then-existing rate. The proposed rent increase for 8/1/23, combined with the $75 amenity fee is another 17% increase, making an overall staggering 35% increase in 13 months. Weve been reliable tenants that pay our rent on time, but our wages havent kept up with these continued, unsustainable increases.2) At about 3:00 a.m. on 9/20/22, a pipe burst through the wall between our bathroom and back bedroom. It took a while for on-call maintenance to respond, and we didn't know how to turn off the water. The water poured for over a half hour, causing flooding to the majority of our unit, damaging the already well-worn carpet, and creating mold growth.Management refused to temporarily transfer us to an available unit, nor did they provide a storage unit for our belongings so that proper water remediation could be completed. We had no option but to remain in our unit.After much negotiation, management agreed to install new carpet in the front bedroom. However, installation wasn't completed in the agreed-upon timeline and was delayed another week. It took three weeks for us to have a bedroom again.3) As shown in the attached pictures, our unit needs several repairs. These issues stem from the various water leaks, the September flood, pipe repairs and replacements, and shoddy workmanship from contractors.If we can maintain our current rental rate while also eliminating the proposed amenity fee, were happy to forego renovations that will be considerably costly to you and massively inconvenient to us.Sincerely,************************* and *********************Business Response

We would be happy to all the necessary repairs in your apartment, if we will be allowed to enter the apartment. Numerous times we have tried to make repairs and were refused access. There was no negotiation we did offer to replace the carpet in the bedroom, which we did do on the date that you confirmed with us. Your renewal offer that you received is considerably less than the two bedrooms currently on the market. All residents pay the amenity fee which includes, the basketball court, grilling station, playground, dog park and ATT internet. Please feel free to contact us if you would like to discuss further. Thank you for your time.Customer Answer

We would like to resolve this issue with you. We understand that you work from home we would like to accommodate you but sometimes our schedule does not allow. We would like to repair everything that the piping plumbers did and everything else that you have mentioned. We just need to be able to schedule a time that is convenient for both you and our maintenance team and our painter. We cannot schedule work to be done if you are working and they are not allowed in. Please let us know if this is possible. Thank you.

Living at Morgan Properties for 5 years and its been a total nightmare. After this lease its definitely a move in store. For the last couple months I have been having issues with the website causing it to bounce my check. I have asked to have this fixed because it isnt my error. They keep saying it is cause of insufficient ofcourse it is when its double charging. I am out of the country and cannot do that wip thing they are tryna get me to do and everyone is so unhelpful. I spoke with ******** who becomes very argumentative and interrupts me the entire time in a rude tone to explain she isnt doing it for me. On top of her clearly being unhelpful with that , they make maintenance a nightmare. I put in multiple request regarding my floors that they have no taken care of. They keep putting my requests as complete and not doing anything about it. Time has past and after my 5 request they came out to take pics and left. Then stated they are charging me for the floors. The main damage is around the tub which was because of flooding which I kept also complaining about and they took god knows how long to come fix it. Now as time went on a wear and tear gas followed they are tryna charge. I also have renters insurance and they have been charging me for that too, I probably have 200 that they have charged of 10 dollars transactions that they where suppose to been take off. I want my money back and my portal put back and maintenance to actually fix what they shouldve been fixed. Im absolutely unhappy with the property.Business Response

This resident has had a total of 4 returned payments for insufficient funds, two in the last 7 months. As stated in the lease agreement the resident is now required to make rental payments by certified funds. The returned payments were not due to double charging. The payments that were made, were made by the resident on different dates and for different amounts. The resident was sent a letter from the insurance department requesting proof of renters insurance. Renter's insurance is required for all residents. Due to the resident failing to submit proof of insurance, an insurance policy was put on the home and charged back to the resident per the lease agreement in the amount of $10.75 monthly. If the resident can prove that they had sufficient insurance during the period of which insurance was charged, the charges will be removed. The resident was informed that the vinyl replacement would be charge back because the replacement is needed due to resident damage.Initial Complaint

Morgan Properties are charging tenants a fee for ********* service. I am not a ******* customer or a fan of *******. I use a different provider that I am pleased with and feel it is unfair that I should have to pay for a service that I do not benefit from. This was never discussed with the tenants other than a letter stating that we would now be charged for the internet through *******.Business Response

Cincinnati weather has had temps that has been fluctuating at night, with temps in the 40's, which causes the boilers to come on. Most residents do run AC units even in the winter months, so for that reason we would not credit the use of electric. Most resident do open windows in the apartments.Initial Complaint

I moved into ********************** Apartment Homes in September of 2022. Upon moving in there were a couple of inspections that were conducted. There was an inspection conducted by one of the leasing employees who goes by ****** and myself. During this inspection, she made note of repairs that were needed in the apartment and then there was an inspection done by myself as well. I was directed to return the inspection form to the office 5 days after moving in and those directions were followed. None of the repairs were completed including the blind replacements in the livingroom and master bedroom . I put in a request to have those repairs completed and was told by ********************* that I would be charged on my rental account for those repairs. I did inform **** and the employees in the leasing office that these were repairs that I noted on my inspection sheet. According to the leasing office there should be two inspection sheets which is an inspection sheet from myself and from the other from the leasing employee who conducted the inspection as well. The leasing office and **** has stated to have neither of the inspection sheets and will still proceed with charging me for repairs despite the lost of these forms on their behalf.Business Response

I recently had to break my current lease here due to personal reasons. I reached out the management office via email to get how much it would cost me to break the lease. No one answered my emails at all, so I had to call them. I wanted to get the amount in some form of writing which is why I emailed them. But they never answered so I called them and the women on the phone informed me the amount I needed to pay to get out or the lease early. They told me I would need to pay the current rent for that month then they gave me the amount needed for the buyout. I asked them if that was all the money they needed and they said yes. They then called me on the first and told me I needed to pay junes monthly payment. This information was never relayed to me and I already paid this property close to 5 grand to break my lease early. I would like some clarification on this matter because I do not have the money to pay another months worth of rent.Business Response
