Run quick run fast
*UPDATE 9/21/2024: Moved out 7/18/2024 and has been expecting my deposit to be mailed within 21 days according to California Tenant Law. Two months later nothing received. This morning woke up with an email from management asking for cleaning fees (which I expected to pay anyway providing their reputation, even though I did clean the unit) plus utilities (water, trash, sewer, etc. which I did pay before the start of each month along with my rent) and parking (I received parking concession... according to contract, so should have been reimbursed). All these fees add up and went over my deposit, resulting in me owing GHP $64.52. Even the utilities were billed after the month of usage, I should only be paying for the 18 days of my stay in July. Not to mention they completely messed up my forwarding address and now pressing me to pay the remaining balance which I’m largely not responsible for.
7/19/2023: Did not receive any move in info till the late morning of the actual day, tho I have prior called in multiple times. Move in coordinator was not knowledgeable of the complex at all, had a hard time locating the unit. Went into the wrong unit the first time. Gave the wrong mailbox number too. Big stain on carpet, maintenance came in later in the afternoon leaving carpet wet so I could only sleep on the tile the first night. Second night someone was fighting in hallway. Been here for less than two weeks package was stolen twice. Oh hidden surcharges too. Bad irresponsive management, overpriced tacky slumlords. Look up GHP lawsuits, you’ll see. Run quick run fast.
*Update: loud, poorly behaved and unattended kids running slamming doors smashing walls littering in hallway every single day.

Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns regarding your deposit and the cleaning fees. We understand how important these matters are and appreciate the opportunity to clarify a few points. Our team strives to process all deposits in... accordance with California law, which typically allows for a 21-day timeline for returning deposits. Regarding the cleaning fees, it’s our policy to assess a fee unless the apartment was returned in a professionally clean condition. We offer an option for a carefree cleaning service at a reduced rate, which alleviates the worry of cleaning and potential fees; however, we understand you chose not to take advantage of this service. Lastly, please note that final utility bills are issued two months in arrears, meaning there may be additional charges even after your final rent payment. We genuinely appreciate your understanding and hope this explanation helps clarify the situation. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we are here to assist you further if needed.
