After touring an apartment Bruce says he owns, I submitted an application the same day. While I was hoping to have more than a few days to give notice to my current landlord, pack, and actually move, Bruce insisted that the apartment needed to be rented within 10 days, which fell on the Thanksgiving holiday. It's a difficult time for anyone to move on such short notice, especially given the pandemic, but I had no choice but to adjust my timeframe to secure this apartment - one I desperately needed. Bruce collected the credit check fee and kept flip-flopping on the timeframe in which he would process my application. He told me he was delayed due to a family matter, and I was patient and understanding as this continued to push back my application being processed. However, when I called to check on the status of my application, Bruce told me that since I was unable to commit to an earlier move date, he was moving forward with someone else who was willing to take the apartment within the next day. How could I commit to anything when my application hadn't been processed and I hadn't yet been approved? Was I supposed to give notice and rent a truck without having a lease in hand? Bruce collected an application fee from me, gave me the runaround for several days, pressured me into agreeing to move 3 weeks earlier than I'd planned, and never actually intended to rent to me. I am a working professional, quiet, considerate, and have a credit score over 800. I am a solid tenant. So I suspect Bruce discriminated against me because I have an ESA, which he explained when we met that he is knows is illegal. Wonder how that will go over once it's reported.
It comes down to a matter of a few days - was it worth all the damage you caused to get someone in just a few days sooner? You should be ashamed of yourself for being this unprofessional. And I saw your original reply to my Google review. You want to discuss this over the phone? I already tried that. You wouldn't let me speak. I also emailed you. But there's nothing left to say. You did something cruel, greedy, and inconsiderate. Hope it was worth it. read more
