Client Review on Springfield Development Company

Feedback:

If I could give 0 stars I would. It was a problem from the beginning. On there website it said you needed to have 3 times monthly rent for your income gross which I had. I paid the $35 application fee. I am told that I am declined due to it being net not gross. I requested I have my app fee back in that case because I wouldn’t have put it in if that is what the website said. I sent them a screen shot and they made an exception and have now also corrected the site. I thought everything would be fine from then on. I was told the carpet needed to be replaced but they wouldn’t replace it because they said they would have to charge a higher rent. I said that’s fine can you just clean it. They told me it would be professionally cleaned. Later I was told by the neighbors that they had someone come in that rented from them and they borrowed her shampooer. I let it go as this was a temporary place until I found a house. I paid 250 per pet for a pet deposit. 1 cat and 1 small dog that are both house trained. I paid a $400 deposit as well. I was raised that when you rent you take care of the place better then your own because it isn’t yours to destroy. When I moved out the place was spotless. I cleaned the floors better then they were when I moved in. I scrubbed the place. It was spotless for what it was. I filled all nail holes that I put in the walls. The place was nice in ready minus a fresh coat of paint and them needing to replace the carpets from before I moved in. Now today I get a bill in the mail saying I am not getting any of my deposit back which I have NEVER experienced in the 10 years that I had rented in the past keep in mind multiple different places. Not only am I not getting my deposit back they are saying I owe them $340 more on top of the 400 they kept from me. They are charging $460 for paint labor which the nail holes were patched and the walls weren’t bad. $100 for cleaning labor when I know good and well they didn’t need to clean anything and $180 for carpet cleaning which I know you could not get them any cleaner then I did due to the fact to them looking nicer then when I moved in. I am livid. Do NOT rent from these people. This is shady to me. They are unfair and awful to work with. They are just out to get more money for jobs that cost much less then what they charge.
