I have lived here for 3 years and this has been taken place ever since. I notified them that ever time I came home to find my door unlocked. And that I heard some one walking around in the attic of the one store apartment. They informed me that there was know way any one could be entering by way of my attic hole. I never leave my door unlocked! And I know what I heard. I went out of state for a week and came home to find the door unlocked and my valuables were gone. The police came and found blood on my wall by the front door, foot prints and glove prints in the attic in Oct. 06. They took pictures and found how they gained entery two doors down. The Detective talk to the maneger and she pointed to a sign saying they are not responceable for lose of property due to fire, water damage, theft. He came back and told me want was said aand told me that paper only holds up if they entery from my windows or doors. Which they did not.

The apartment they entered from is two doors down. The police told me that they went in to the attic(which we are not to enter) and knocked a hole in the single layer of dry wall with their hands. It was obvious that they made several trips with tools to cut out holes in the other firer wall.

Simple answer, NO. Thats why you can purchase renters insurance.

Do you have renters insurance?
When you heard someone in the attic, didn't you call the police and report an intruder?
It really doesn't matter what a sign says. Signs don't absolve someone from negligence.
You post really isn't very clear. Do several apartments share attic access? Where does the store fit in with all this? Can someone from outside gain entry to the attic? Doesn't the attic have a lock on it?

You would have to have a renters insurance policy of your own to cover the stolen possessions.
If the attic is accessible to all tennants where you live, I would move immediately. This could happen again.
