United Properties, 524 S. Independence, VA Beach Unprofessional, Offensive, Lazy, Extremly Poor Management VA Beach Virginia

My daughter is a homeowner in a townhouse condo complex, that was built about six years ago. She bought it new from the builder of the complex.  The builder had not hired a property manager at the time, so she had no input as to who they were going to hire.  I was so sorry to hear, they hired United Properties, because we had looked at so many condo developments, that were being managed by this company.  We saw units with leaking skylights, patched roofs with shingles that did not match. Units with termites, and lots of unrepaired water damage, due to EFIS, which lead to termite infestations. In adequate trash pickup.  The list goes on and on.  Where my daughter lives, there is a clause in the condo docs., that you are not allowed to have dogs over 25 lbs, However, there are huge, dangerous dogs in the complex, and they do absolutely nothing about it.  I am talking Pitbulls, etc. They actually, wanted me  to follow the resident home to see where they live.  The lights burn out at the entrance.   They never get replaced.  They never trim the trees back that hang over the fence, but they don't want you to cut them.

It is also included in the condo doc. that the association is suppose to be responsible for the upkeep of everything on the outside and the homeowner is responsible for everything from the studs inside the walls in.

The fencing around the condos are wood with a whitewash paint. They sent a letter requiring my daughter to powerwash the fence.  Based on what I read in the docs, she is not responsible for upkeep of the outside, especially the fence.  This is why people move into condos, so they do not have to worry about the upkeep outside of the building.  You pay for this in your monthy condo fees.

This was an added expense to hire someone to powerwash the fence, which is their responsibility.  I believe they target people who complain.  I would like to know how many people received these letters.

Instead of focussing on getting these dangerous dogs out of the complex, who pose a real threat to homeowners and their pets, and  enforcing the 10 percent rental capacity being rented out, theiy instead are harassing people about mildew on a fece, that they are responsible for.

I have encouraged my daughter to organize other homeowners to get these poor excuses for property managers FIRED, and replaced with real property professionals.
