  • ARE YOU KIDDING?
    Seriously?????

    WHAT A JOKE. We are 2TREES tenants… For 12 years paid rent on time, never complain and the hurricane hits… NOT one person from rental management asked if we were ok, need water a blanket, food, heres how you use the gas…
    We have children, small children who were FREEZING and scared (they even commenced construction during the duration of NO POWER).

    Theses people are collecting funds from insurance and government for their “DAMAGES” and still force the tenants to actually pay for the days that the apartments were not even livable!!!!

    This is sick and I actually don’t think that David and Jane Walentas even know that their staff is treating the renters like total garbage.

    This is why we pay high rent? this is how we get treated as good customers?
    in all honesty, these people should be very ashamed of themselves.
