This content was originally at different domain name (rezapp.news/) which was for me a way to have it readily available and simple to share the link. The "rezapp" was because that was the name of a business that took over managing the apartment complex where I live, or I suppose so, since at least I received emails from the domain "rezcommunity.com" for awhile which were from "a new manager" (see below); but the associated website had link to "rezapp.com" so I spent thirteen bucks for the dot-news top level domain. It's really a way for me to publish my documentation of what I found out about the company.
If I had no legitimate complaint or issue with the business then I'd have no reason to research anything about it. There gets to be an attitude, however, by just about anybody that it's not any of my business who I give my money to since I should just be grateful I have a roof over my head (type thing).
This particular multi-unit property manager made it fairly obvious what their motivation was when they weren't accounting for housing assistance money being paid to them from the state on my behalf. The managers wouldn't keep my account correct for me to use the online payment portal so I'd need to take money orders into the leasing office to ensure that they acknowledged receipt. The problem gets to be that I know what they were doing was deliberate (I just wasn't clear on the reason) but the more often I need to personally go into the leasing office the more risk of a conflict arising. They'd like to have justification for the purposeful maltreatment so they will intentionally try to push buttons.
Most people would ask "why would people do that?" like either I'm just being too critical, or I'm just crazy, or else there must be some reason that an average person would understand. I had assumed it was because my disability status since I don't readily appear to be physically disabled. Some people cannot stand veterans, too, and often stigmatized as war monger types, and if we're not then we just don't understand that we're supposed to be (so we align with the necessary stereotype).
It turned out that what the actual motive of the landladies was a way to force me to move, maybe even in a disruptive or pitiful way, so they could exert an appearance of power as an intimidation tactic. It was so they could avoid going through county civil court process that is associated with their business paradigm to handle non-paying tenants. The supervisor manager finally made that obvious when she posted a "rent demand" notice to my door after the manager that was working in the office had adruptly left. The young lady that was working there had corrected my account so I could pay online and I have a seperate Google spreadsheet I keep too. I shared the link to my spreadsheet with the prior manager (Kris T) and for months it went smoothly.
The "rent demand" notice that Danielle M (the supervisor) had a section to select if tenant received housing assistance and it was checked as "no". Of course it seemed like usual slip-up (plausible deniability) to me even, but the name was the same person that was on the renewal offer posted to my door months prior.
I will combine my original website content with the documentation here.
Plain text of the new manager's introduction email:
Hello,
My name is Kris T- . I will be the new Property Manager here at the Riviera Apartments! Please feel free to reach out to me or stop by with any questions or concerns you may have! My office hours are Monday-Friday 9:00am-5:00pm. I look forward to meeting you all.
Images of the (false) notice posted to my door and renewal offer:
At any rate, how it all transpired is a tale in itself, let it suffice to say that my interest was piqued as far as who exactly I was dealing with. The management was stalling on the actual renewal and after it finally happened the landlady wouldn't acknowledge receipt of assistance funds. That isn't all too uncommon and the program even exonerates the managers by not suspecting intentional fraud because it is understood that the payments go directly to the company owning the property since they're the main address on the lease. The management businesses will process the payments from tenants and a new manager may be thrown off by the process and jump to conclusions. A HUD casemanager would readily provide copy of the payments where it will show the owner’s name & address as recipient so usually that is enough. Now there is an online utility provided by the state for landlords to verify payments made. I provided the link to the managers at liveamc.com but I was initially ignored. There was a man who I talked to on the phone twice who may not be in the state, and might be direct employee of the owner, but he’d acknowledge my housing assistance but the supervisor, Danielle, never did.
So when I went to submit complaint against the management I found their real estate license information on the state’s website and it turned out that the address listed was the same as a trade journal, "Western Livestock Journal" (I kid not). I went there in person to try to catch the main manager but the man there never heard of him. I said that he’s using this address and the man there said "well, that’s fraud!".
