My name is Lynn, and I signed a lease for property at 14216 Woodlands drive #94 in Hammond La., on…read moreOctober 21st managed by the property management company Rent Louisiana LLC and owned by Christopher Pugh a pharmacist in Ponchatoula Louisiana. Despite renting me a unit that had buckled floors from dog urine, they told me it was from flooding, but a neighbor confirmed that it hadn't flooded there in the 25 years she had been living there and that the prior occupant had dogs. On the 27th when I went to move in, I found a dirty unknown white powdery substance, a paper bowl and what appeared to be a rather large rat dropping with a hair attached on the top of the refrigerator. I have attached pictures to verify this along with all of my other findings. I then opened up the kitchen drawers only to find a significant amount of rat feces. There was also dog medication, and other medicines left in the kitchen cabinets confirming what the neighbor said about the prior owner having dogs. There were other areas with dog hair and the toilet hadn't been cleaned and had human hair under the lid. I was so disheartened that I reached out to two of my close friends. One owns rental properties, and the other attended law school in Oklahoma. I showed them the pictures, and my friend with the rental properties said he would never rent one of his townhomes out in such a condition because it could make him legally liable and that being retried military, he took a sense of pride in his property and being a man of faith, had no desire to be known as a slumlord, or to pay a shady management company to keep his name anonymous if he were. My law school friend said there's a reasonable person standard as well as an industry standard, and that it isn't unreasonable for a new tenant to expect the property to be cleaned and ready to move in, just like it's not unreasonable to expect your hamburger at McDonalds or Burger King not to have hair underneath the bun. I requested to have my lease canceled and my first months rent of 1150 and deposit of the same amount returned. Emily with Rent Louisiana said the owner was wiling to cancel the lease and return my first months rent but would retain my deposit of 1150 due to other qualified applicants being turned away. I am a single mother and nurse who works 12 hour shifts in a stressful environment. I am selling my home and seeking to move to Hammond to be close to my daughter who is in nursing school there and now I have to look for another place to rent because my house is already sold and I have yet to receive even the first months rent that Emily said would be returned much less my deposit of 1150. I am now out 2300 dollars for a unit I was in only twice in 7 days and had everything out on the 8th day and the key returned per Emily's instructions. How can a company and an owner operate in such egregious ways? Would you want your daughter or mother to move into a place that clearly isn't clean and could pose a health risk due to rat feces and urine in the places where food and utensils are stored? Please see the attached pictures. Fortunately I have friends who are lawyers and other friends who own rental properties and operate in a much more honorable way. They will be helping me purse legal action as well as contacting the health department to report violations of Louisiana codes. I hope this review will help those who are considering renting from Rent Louisiana or Christopher Pugh.
