My experience at Pepper Cove Apartments ...
My experience at Pepper Cove Apartments was extremely disappointing. Not to mention there was mold all throughout the restroom of apartment moving in and they still abandoned to come and fix it during my two year stay after repeatedly telling them about it upon initially moving in. During a recent inspection of my apartment, the maintenance manager, Mr. Hubert, was not only disrespectful but also unprofessional. He pulled back the layer of the carpet, attempting to try and pin it on me and accuse me of staining the underlayer of the carpet, despite there being no visible stains on the surface layer. Given that the carpet was four years old and I had lived there for two years, its a coincidence that they replace the carpet after 5 years and they wanted to hold most of my deposit money for that reason.
Despite my efforts to keep the apartment in pristine condition, Mr. Hubert’s behavior was unacceptable. Additionally, the management refused to provide proof of the carpet's condition when I moved in, clearly aiming to blame us for any issues. There was also a significant incident where the carpet was flooded due to a leaking AC, which was never properly addressed by maintenance after work orders were placed by me, creating a potential mold hazard in which I am allergic to.
The management's tactics to withhold my security deposit through unsubstantiated damage claims are both unfair and unethical. Repeated attempts to resolve this matter with the office were met with unresponsiveness and a severe lack of professionalism by Karina the office manager. I asked to speak to her supervisor to resolve the issue and mistreatment, and she refused to give me her number or email. I still had no way of reaching higher up to resolve getting my full deposit back. It wasn't until I showed them video footage of Mr. Hubert's mistreatment that they began to respond. This footage clearly shows the maintenance supervisor yelling and behaving in an extremely disrespectful manner toward me and a witness.
AVOID Pepper Cove Apartments at ALL COSTS. They do not know how to solve unfair issues and treat you terribly. Th stress and frustration caused by their unprofessionalism and poor management are simply not worth it.
