While the residents are all really nice and it's a nice area the management company here has been really difficult and is not following the law. Villas refuses to follow rent control and when informing management of our rights we were threatened with eviction via email if we payed the legally allowed rent. Rent increases were 10% one year and 5% the next in violation of measure h. They also require a 2 month notice to move out, which is illegal according to state law (only 30 days is required in reality). Additionally, the apartment has multiple safety concerns. Whenever it rains the hallways leak water on the 3rd floor (and aren't repaired), a fire occurred my last week living here and the fire alarm only set off much later than is safe. Our ceiling flooded water into the bedroom floor and we weren't given a place to stay while they repaired the ceiling (weeks later). Not to mention random hot water shut offs and one week on Christmas 2021 our water shut off for over a day for no reason. Lastly, the minute the property manager found out we were giving our 2 month notice, we were constantly asked to move out early as they found a new tenant already and he wanted to move in "asap." We were also charged an excessive rent increase here our last month, due to month-to-month rent being higher than 5%. You have to sign a yearly lease each year instead of being allowed to go month-to-month after your first year here. Highly recommend people don't live here if they value their safety and rights as tenants.
