AvalonBay Communities Reviews

  • Aug 29, 2014

I want to explain two simple situations of the kind of Rip off this company is.

8 months ago our dog was viciously attacked in the apartment complex by another dog living in the community. We found out that this dog had attacked another animal before and Avalon did nothing about it. $2000 in vet bills later I realized I was not going to be able to make rent due on the 1st like normal.

I called and asked if they could make an exception this one time given the circumstances. I explained I would be able to pay on the 15th in full. They filed an unlawful detainer and I got subpoenaed legal papers on the 14th. In order to stay I had to now pay the full rent AND an additional $590 in legal fees. So they got paid anyways on the 15th....the only difference is I incurred an additional $590 in legal fees.

Looking at the numbers it was just far to expensive to move at the time so I figured we would try and stay. 2 months ago I went online to pay like normal and entered my bank accounts routing number in incorrectly. Honest mistake right?

Rather than call me and ask me to pay on the 17th they filed an unlawful detainer...again demanding I pay full rent and $590 in legal fees. I talked to them multiple times AND even had my bank show them my statement showing that I had all the funds available at the time.

They didn't care and said the fees were valid. This place cares more about their lawyers getting paid than their customers. Please beware of this company. I really hope by writing these reviews that I prevent others from enduring what I have been through.
