I purchased a franchise and moved to Douglasville GA. to start a new life.  I searched online for available rentals and although Colony American Homes were very hard to contact I found a perfect house for the price that was right for me and my 2 children.  Once I was able to locate a realtor for the property I scheduled a viewing, submitted an application and was approved.   The entire process was online and my move in date was June 1st 2015.  The realtor left the key outside and told me to do the walk through and get it back to him via email. There were several things that needed to be fixed and cleaned in the home and was noted on the move-in inspection. (None of the cleaning was ever done)

 

Just a few months into living in this 3 bedroom 2 bath home my father had a heart attack in North Carolina and needed to come and live with me due to his failing health.  I called colony and explained my dilemma.  I was told that I could move into another one of their properties but would need to redo an application, be approved, and pay the deposit.  I found the home I am currently in, was approved, and was told I had to be out of the home I was currently in and into the new home within a week.  I asked my realtor if I could make the move in for the 1st of the month to which he said his supervisor would not allow and if I wanted the larger property I would have to take possession and be out of the other home by September 21, 2015.  I complied.  We managed to move everything out and clean the previous property and left it immaculate!!  (Much better than when I moved in it.)  They could have rented it straight away without any cleaning what so ever! 

 

After several weeks I began calling because I was told by the realtor that I would be contacted about a walk out and final inspection of the previous home.  Well no called. No one returned any of my numerous calls.  Over a month later I went by the previous property to check the mailbox to find a law suit filed against me for eviction!!!  I was in disbelief!!  The 10 days for me to respond had passed and the court said there was nothing I could do about it but to file suit against them and try to get my money back for my deposit and have the order for eviction vacated.

 

I immediately left the court house and called the attorney on file.  She quickly called me back and explained that the eviction was filed in error and that the managing office would contact me.  She refused to send me anything in writing and no one ever contacted me from the office and no one would return my calls. 

 

How can Colony approve me to move, Rush me to move, Take my money, then file papers and send them to the previous address!!!!!  I have never missed paying rent!!  I have never paid late!!  And usually pay months in advance.   Now I am in this other property and still renting from them and am already having serious problems with them.  This house is SO OVER PRICED! I have 3 fire places NONE OF WHICH WORK, A Jacuzzi tub that was unusable the first month of living here, A gas stove that has never worked properly and still doesn't, Carpet that was supposed to be replaced prior to move in but never was, A front door that couldn’t be secured for the first month I was here, and a garage that floods every time it rains, Blinds that don't fit the windows and several that are broken.  2 of the 5 bedrooms have no closets, and most of the windows in the home do not open!!  This is a joke!!  The only thing this company is on top of is COLLECTING RENT!!  And we just spent 3 days without working toilets, showers, and sinks!!! And had toilet, (septic) water running from the ceiling fan and lights from the 2nd floor into the kitchen.  FOR 3 DAYS!!!!!

 

I JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK AND TO BE COMPENSATED FOR MONEY LOST!!  There were so many other things that have gone wrong and that are currently going wrong but I will save that for the health department and an attorney when I find the right one.

 

DO NOT RENT FROM THESE PEOPLE!!  THEY ARE CURRENTLY KNOWN AS WAYPOINT HOMES.  THEY WILL NEVER GIVE A DEPOSIT BACK AND WILL TAKE YOU THROUGH SO MANY CHANGES TO HAVE REPAIRS COMPLETED!! CROOKS LIARS UNPROFESSIONAL AND NO FOLLOW THROUGH that is what is in store for you if you sign that lease!!
