HORRIFYING EXPERIENCE MOVING IN AND AFTER YOU MOVE!! DO NOT MOVE IN HERE!!!!! I needed a temporary place to live and had very little time and then found Malibu Canyon Apartments. The way this organization does business is unacceptable! When I moved in the floors were NOT CLEAN at all. In fact, they were black with filth... the paint was coats and coats on top of each other.. with hair and dirt stuck under the paint. When I mentioned it they said someone would come clean and never did...same thing at neighbors, a few months before I moved out ( When my new neighbors moved in they were perturbed by the same paint job on their remodeled unit as well as the black filthy floors when they moved in. Just like with me, the company said they'd come clean and never followed up?!?...) In addition, I had to call to have several items fixed as did my neighbors . This could have been avoided with a simple walk through prior to the tenants moving in. I felt like a property manager living there and calling to have everything repaired from the broken window, the blinds to the screens to the slider to the dishwasher to the oven to them not changing broken light covers outside until a year of me asking consistently...They had no security guards for months and let the landscaping die. Not to mention, they let the broken sprinklers flow onto the street for weeks wasting water all over the street and sidewalks. It was a muddy mess for weeks from the lack of maintenance and dirt on the sidewalk. The Malibu Canyon Apartment company / staff let a smoke alarm go off in the community for more than 24 hours!!!!!!! When my neighbors and I called the leasing office. They wanted US to find out which apartment it was coming from and dial 911... Prior to this,The SWAT team was there with guns drawn in August of 2016 for a wanted man that lived below me. This should have absolutely been disclosed way back then. I have a young boy and am a single woman.. I had to learn about if from neighbors months later who were terrified by the situation and experience. I payed full pop for an unsafe, disgusting apartment with an insouciant staff! IN ADDITION, Their website for rental payments had a glitch on January 1 2017 and they charged me $100.00 extra anyway. My rent was never late!!!!!!!! If that's not enough, when you move out they want you to move on the 3rd of the month instead of the 1st to milk you a little more!!! This Company will cut corners when you are living there and when you move out EVEN MORE, like you cannot believe. It seems to always be their word against yours in ANY CASE!!!! ... They will not accept a personal house cleaner for the move out cleaning, paid for by me even with a receipt.. I had to pay my lady and then pay them $130.00. Even though right after I moved out, they completely remodeled with new cabinets appliances and paint and of course dusted the entire unit and my old neighbors after I vacated. The remodel makes a mess and leaves it until they are finished too by the way!!! Oh but it gets better! I mean WORSE By law, in the state of California. Once a Tenant has vacated, the landlord has 21 days to give an explanation as to why nothing will be returned or to return the deposit money with an explanation for deductions WITHIN 21 DAYS OF VACATING...!! They stated that they will only give me $870.00 of my 1,000.00 deposit ( subtracting the $130.00 for the supposed cleaning). I moved out September 3, 2017 and it is now October 10,2017. Still no check has come in the mail, just an email saying that I will not be reimbursed for the cleaning lady I hired and asking for a receipt which I sent right away and got no reply.. I called this morning to ask about my check and now they want me to sign an affidavit saying that the check was lost. I am going to make an example of this company. If I have to take my valuable time take them to small claims court. I WILL. I heard nightmare stories the whole time I lived there... and from people that lived there in the past. I wanted to share on YELP so that people know what type of company this is and that there are other properties to live in. You just have to look with a realtor who cares about your best interest. The Landlord pays for any commission owed on any listed property rental. If you find something without a realtor, if it's a good realtor they will look over the lease for you even if they make no money. Malibu Canyon does not take care of their staff or clients.... What A JOKE!!!!
