East Village Apartments

Their apartments seemed decent enough. Obvious shortcuts were taken in the apartments and they weren't in perfect shape when we moved in. The tenants before us mounted their tv on the wall and it was clear the holes made were patched quickly and cheaply. You could see the outlines of the holes. I tried to cover it up by hanging a picture but thebpqtch job in the wall caved in. We reported it to the office but no one came to fix it. We lived there for over 2 years without too many issues. There... was some issue with neighbors not parking in the right spot. However no matter how much we called the landlord did nothing about it after promising they would. We eventually gave up with that. It literally went on for a year.
When we moved out we spent a week cleaning it. A month later, instead of getting our security deposit back, we were charged 100$ for repairs to the wall and they told us the carpets needed to be ripped up and replaced. When I called to dispute it, they wouldn't even talk to us. I suggested that ibwould send them proof. I had taken pics when we moved and the day we left along with pics of the wall and our request to get it fixed. After having the majority of our calls ignored and arguing about it when we did get thru, they decided to drop the charges but still would not give us our deposit back.
I've heard of this happening to other people as well along with many other issues. The apartments are cheap and even though we didn't really have huge issues, we got screwed over in the end. Always paid on time, never had any complaints on us. We were essentially perfect quiet tenants. It seems great in the beginning, but it sounds like at the end of it all, they'll come up with any reason not to return peoples money. They're thieves and I would not recommend them to anyone.
