The Wilshire at Deerpark

The wife and I have lived here for three years now, and the longer we have been here, the lower our opinion of this place has become. I have neither the time or money to hire a lawyer for the flagrant contract violations the owners/​management have inflicted upon us but here is a short list of complaints;
*started charging «pet rent» in the middle of our last lease, which was $ 20/​month (my dog still hasn’t gotten a job to cover his share of the rent)
*you are required to pay for «valet trash pick up» ($ 25 + $ 3 «trash tax,» whatever that means) although they routinely skip you & hardly anyone actually uses the service, as far as I can tell. The wife has complained numerous times, but stopped complaining when a shady looking guy in all black clothing picked up our trash at 2:30 AM.
*the new manager is on a power trip. My first time talking to her, I called to explain that I was going to pay rent on the seventh (a few days late) to which she responded, «You need to learn to manage your money better.» So, when I resigned my lease recently (I wish I hadn’t) she increased the late charge from $ 150 to $ 240. It’s evident that they care more about money than tenants.
*the parking situation is chaotic. They actually took an elderly man’s parking spot away from him. He had a spot with a sign that said «reserved for six year tenant» and revoked it and several other loyal tenants’ spots under the new ownership.
The list goes on, believe me. My wife probably should have written this review, but to be sure, we are both thoroughly dissatisfied with The Wilshire at Deer Park Apartments. Retain a lawyer if you plan on renting here.
