Ashley Court Apartments

The apartment building is old and maybe because of this, management does not take care of units much. When I moved in, I had provided a long list of observations including rusty appliance interiors, unmoped floors, missing tub stoppers, crooked switches, dirty bathroom walls, moldy looking corners of bathroom, missing window blinds, lockless window, balcony railing with peeling paint, dirty interior of refrigerator (hanging insulating rubbers), etc. After sending observations, manager sent handyman and took care of some of the things. Apparently, after previous tenants moved out, it was handed to us without proper standard cleaning. After staying for about 9 months - I moved out. I was hoping for full refund of my security deposit as I cleaned the apartment and left it in pristine state. But to my dismay, the manager who inspected the move out state charged me $175 for touch up paint. I was told in spot that any tenant that moves out before 1 year pays $175 regardless of state. It did not seem right, but I agreed on the spot and signed the doc. But when I reviewed the original contract docs later, I did not see such thing. Then I emailed the manager about it and manager changed the narrative and said the touch up paint will be required because furniture possibly touched the walls, etc. I do not agree with that because the areas in question were clear areas and no furnitures were kept there. So the bottom line is, I was made to pay the $175 for pre-existing touch up paint needs. Its good, peaceful and reasonably priced apartment but my move in and move out experiences were subpar. So...2 star for those experiences!
