I lived at Peachtree Park Apartments for five years. Do not be fooled by the low advertised rents. Aimco, the parent company, is a scam, designed to squeeze as much money out of you as humanly possible. I moved out two months before the end of my lease but continued paying rent for the final two months so I didn't have to break my lease. The day I moved out, I had my carpets professionally clean. I did a move-out inspection with a man from maintenance, who noted the clean (still wet!) carpets. When I received my final invoice, Aimco charged me for carpet cleaning. When I spoke to a representative on the phone, I was told that they had no record of my moving out before the end of my lease, or my move-out inspection, and that the carpet cleaning charge would remain. In addition to this, they seem to have devised some scheme to milk even more money out of me in the last month of my lease. Every month, for five years, all charges due on the first of the month were posted a few days before the first. When I paid my final month's bill, again on the first of the month, I paid all charges posted to my account. The bill seemed low, but because it was only a partial month's rent, and because never, in my five year history with Peachtree Park, had additional charges been posted later in the day on first, I had no reason to believe that the charges were incorrect. When I received my final invoice, I see that later in the day on the first rent charges were applied to my account and that I was being charged a late fee for not paying my full balance. Again, the representative I spoke with on the phone stated that I should have known, despite all my experience with Aimco, that some charges were missing. Do not live at Peachtree Park. It is not worth the cheap rent. Aimco is a company that preys on its lower income residents.
