Snooping apartment manager?

Question

I have a bad relationship with my manager. She really has a nasty attitude and avoids speaking because I was friends with one of the tenants that got evicted. (Why, I don't really know) anyway, there has been situations where a dog was doing its business on my parking spot daily and I told her and she said there was nothing she could do. I wrote a letter to the management company and she got reallyyy mad but the dog dooing stopped. So now I found a receipt that I would have no relationship to and I called the number and thought it was the managers husband who is no longer there. He said that it wasn't him and that his girlfriend lives in the apartment building....I didn't give my name and I blocked my number. Shortly after, Iget a call from the manager stating that she wanted my side of the story and that someone probably thought it was mine receipt and put it under my door. It was too far under the door!!!. How did she know who the guy was talking to, I didn't tell him. Hmmmm!!

Answer 2

Who is this someone? Who ussually puts receipts under doors?

Change your locks or instal a v-trap.

V-trap:
place a toothpick or piece of paper too small to be noticed unless you are looking for it on the top or the side of the door between the door and the door jamb when you go out somewhere

make sure it can fall if the door is opened

remmember where it is when you go out somewhere

if, when you return, it is not in the same place as before, someone has been in your apartment

to determine who it is, buy a camera and leave but leave a friend hidden inside

when whoever is snooping enters have your friend take a snapshot

confront whoever it is

blablablabla..............you know the rest

Answer 3

Your situation confused me..... What do you mean by receipt? How did you get it? What was on it? Why did you call a strange number?

My advice is to not invite any more problems. Follow your lease terms to a tee! Then get a new place when the lease is up. But don't expect your deposit back. The managers can use their own discretion on that matter - and you will most likely not get it if she hates you.

UPDATE

If you feel like she is doing immoral things, or trying to set you up do this: Document everything, in a mater -of-fact sort of way with no emtions. Type it up, use spell check, and send the letter (with all the past events, the effect it has had on you, and the resolve you desire) to the regional and national corporate addresses.

Also, when you send these, send them certified mail! It only cost a buck or two extra, and is outline in the TAA (Texas apartment associate) 's guidlines for filing complaints. Sending it certified mail will mean that they have to sign it when they get it, and a post card is sent back to you as proof of delivery. (Go to your post office to send this) You can even include photographs, photo copies (like of the receipt you mentioned) and copies of any past, writen correspondence between you and the manager/mgt company. Sending it cert. mail also shows them that you READ THE LEASE (which is not common) and you mean business!!!

Make the letter professional and not emotional. Give dates, names, specific events. And then state what you want. A good request is to terminate your lease without penalty (aka getting out of your lease) Be prepaired though, if they grant this to you, they could "let you out of your lease" within a weeks time! or even less depending on the time of month you request it. If you request to be let out of your lease, you may want to add the stipulation of at least two weeks notice, that way you have some time to find a new place. Or request your move out be on the end of month following their response..... However, be prepaired for them to hold you to your request!

Good luck.

Answer 4

Caller I.D. is how. Sounds like you need to call the management company and report that deal. Too much like a set up.
Only we she could have know is if she had who ever it was do that. Sounds too fishy.
Might also start checking around inside your apartment to see if she is using a master key to get in and snoop around when you are gone.

Answer 5

Time to find a new apartment... If you signed a lease, you can request to be let out of the lease and describe your reasons, send it to the management company.
