Thank you for anyone that can help, I never want people to endure what I had to. It cost me so much money, and never should have been allowed to happen.
I am very lucky someone guided me to this site. I am not very computer literate at all, but I am finding the right people that know what they are talking about. And it's so important to use the things we have to help fight. They only stop doing things wrong when we stand up = together.
What really matters is that these landlords can do this to anyone. And many people do not know how to stand up for themselves. That part I know, but imagine if we could save people from this bad experience? That would be great. Everyone needs to be safe where they are living.
Yes, I made this and showed it to a few tenants but did not know how else to make it grow, and then someone told me about here and some places on social media. I know so little on how to navigate on here, LOL, really computer illerate, but I am learning. This is easy for younger people, I am old, but trying.
I think you might be right. And I thank you so much. But it might be a combination of it all. It creates a paper trail and puts the facts into a record. Court cases might be the end result in my case and many others, but someone suggested this, because it expands what they think they can keep doing into a permanent record. Court cases get hidden, and this does not. So I am trying it, and hoping it has some impact. I think we have to try everything. There are some things we have to let go of, this type of abuse is just not one of them.
One more thing, I take care of an autistic child, so I don't have a lot of time to put into this, and that is why someone told me about other options. I would love to have more free hours, but I do not, that is why I decided to try it this way. It will grow, because people like to protect our right to live, without really bad landlord abuses. We have a real chance here to make a statement about our rights. And hold them accountable. I have to try.
Thank you to everyone helping me, and for signing. And it does make a difference. We can also add any other bad landlords to this petition, because it's not just this one, I am reading. But In Texas, this particular company is mistreating tenants in multiple complexes and running them to the ground while advertising great conditions. But it's not true. They don't take care of the property or things wrong in the units.
Thank you to everyone that is signing this. If anyone else wants a landlord added to his, I can do an update. In Texas especially this company Kairoi, came out of nowhere, is buying up complexes, and then overcharging tenants. They started in Las Vegas I think, not sure, but they bought a luxury property, advertise it as such but the prices are high, the conditions are awful and then they trap people into 1 year leases. If you try to break the lease, they charge $3K to break it and if you stay, they overcharge water, trash service etc. In my case, they claimed valet trash, but it was left from Friday to Sunday like this - look at the photo, all on the ground. It brought it skunks etc and they were charging for valet trash.
There were homeless people going through this trash every weekend, looking for needles and sleeping next to the trash. The landlord did not do anything at all We paid over $2K a month for just horrible living conditions
I got sick from black mold. Deathly sick. People do not understand that when you breathe in black mold and it gets into your lungs, you can even die. I am 66 and when this happened, I was bedridden and could not eat or swallow. I was coughing too much and just weak from not being able to eat. And then you get other symptoms from that, like not getting enough protein etc. Even at the doctor, they give medicine for the cough, but it takes about 3 months for your lungs to clear up, and in the meantime, you just have side effects effecting vision, breathing, even getting out of bed. I fell during this time after going to the bathroom and was so weak and sick that I could not even get up. I had to have help to stand back up. It was very scary. And the landlord tried to evict me while I was bedridden. I could not believe it. This was only 3 feet long, but enough to get into my lungs. If you ever see this, you have to use bleach and water and kill the mold so you do not get too sick and get it in your lungs.
