As others have noted, we rented with homes 4 rent for 15 months. We were shown a very nice home and agreed to rent we went the day of our walkthrough and were met with someone we had not met before. We went through each room and identified several areas in each room that needed to be repaired, replaced or added. Primarily the carpets in the living area, bedroom and dining areas were badly soiled and smelled badly we were instructed that they would write that down on the walk through document and we could try and get the carpets cleaned and steamed but they were acceptable to the company and would not be replaced at this point in time. The leasing agent was instructed that we wanted this documented as there were huge stains on the carpet that we could live with but we did not want to have to replace when we moved out later. The shower in the upstairs bathroom started leaking into the downstairs ceilings, no one ever came to repair, we also had no air conditioning for most of the summer no one came to fix it, also during the walk-through there were some areas in the paint was really an awful gold color. We were told we could paint any color we wanted and that we did not have to repaint or base paint when we moved out. We did change paint color or repaint, we did as instructed on move out document repair any nail holes in the wall. We had been instructed at walkthrough that nail holes were not an issue. We were told we were to live in the house as if the house were our own and treat it as if it was our own for decorating and painting. There were problems with spider nests in the house and ant nests in the house. They never came to correct. We were forced to pay to have someone spray for those Corrections in order to live there, They also never came to repair the leak in the bathtub and shower they did finally have a man come to get an estimate on cost to repair for the company, he looked at the leak in the ceiling and told us that they would need to get approval from the company to fix it. He never returned. We eventually had to put a window air conditioning in the upstairs area too cool the sleeping areas. At move out, we were not allowed to attend the move out walk through. We were provided an invoice for each of these items that I listed plus a couple of more, I.e. screens not fitting. were all listed as items that we had damaged and we were charged for each of those items nearly $1,400 in damages when we moved out. We can assure you that when we moved out of the house the needed repairs in that house and the carpet in that house looked a hundred percent better than it did when we moved in. We fortunately had pictures at move in and move out to show the difference. So I would say if you have any possibility of getting an attorney or someone to look at your house now before they start to charge you for those repairs or before move out this is your best opportunity. We were instructed we should have done so the minute they did not complete the repairs or did not respond to our complaints. We should have contacted the consumer affairs office at that moment to have someone intercept for us. We would recommend that anyone still dealing with issues with Homes 4 Rent, PLEASE be aware of that and also be aware that some of the same people with Homes 4 Rent are now working for other agencies and pop-up rental companies, Also be aware that you should document and be aware to document and take pictures as we had. The Indiana attorney general and the consumer affairs will take the case. It sometimes takes a while sometimes two or three years to get a resolution on it but you will get a resolution from Homes 4 Rent. You see all of the complaints, you see the Attorney General's are involved in every state!' Get out while you can if you're not involved do not get involved with them.
