I met with Wendy of the Golba Group to sign my lease on Sept 1. I was told that the garage door wasn't electric but it locked. No problem although this wasn't disclosed in the rental information. Once I went to the property the very same day I discovered not only did the door not lock the keys didn't work in the house doors. I called and waited an hour for a return phone call from Wendy that clearly was never going to come. So I drove back to the office and was told that it was my responsibility to call their maintenance company and file a report. Which I refused to do. I didn't feel it was my responsibility to wait to have a door repaired that anyone could come in on me less than two hours of me signing my lease and giving them $3000.00 of my money. Thus the property was not safe to occupy by a single female. Sept 2 I spoke with Wendy and Ashley Reed again and was told that the overhead door company would be calling me back to come out to fix the door and I needed to be there. Ashley in her stupidity informed me that the property was safe the only thing that wasn't secure and safe was the garage door. I can only assume that she was too stupid to realize that by the garage door being a part of the house if it wasn't secure the house wasn't secure. I never received that call. I also sent them a certified letter dated Sept 2 giving them five days to return my money. I still never received a call from anyone. On Sept 9 after sending an email to every email address that I could find via Google search. Telling them that I wanted out of the lease and wanted my money back. Ken Golba left me a message stating that while I had not moved into the property if I wanted out of my lease I would lose my first months rent and my deposit. So he would advise me to move into the property and that if we went to court I would lose. Ken seems to be under the impression that my issue is that the property doesn't have an electric garage door opener. I guess he's too simple minded to understand that if I could pay Sept, Oct, last months rent plus a security deposit as well as earnest money deposit. Surely I could afford to pay to have someone install an electric garage door opener for me. I called and asked to speak to Ken on Sept 10 to advise him that as long as I was getting back my Oct rent and my last months rent for Sept that I had paid in advance. I would be elated to allow them to keep Sept rent as well as the deposit, earnest money and other money I had paid. Just not having to deal with these rude, disrespectful, dishonest, and unprofessional people was worth that much to me. I was told he was in a meeting but I could leave a message in his voice mail.instead Reed gets on the phone to once again display her stupidity and rude behavior. She tells me that The Golba Group plans to keep all $3000.00 dollars of my money that I paid them on Sept 1. For a property that I have not one day stayed in or lived in or moved any of my property in. These people are the biggest bunch of thieves that I have ever seen in my life. However what they don't realize is I don't go away that easy. I'm from the show me state baby and grandma always said I can show you better than I can tell you. So Golba Group please understand that your threats don't work with me nor do they intimidate me.
