Rhonda Tersigni (AKA: Fresh Start Concepts) is a rip-off landlord. She lives in Northwood, Ohio, but she has a P.O. Box in Oregon Ohio.
She likes to represent herself as an honest, Christian, but she's apparently not a "practicing Christian".
She has no business skills and none to very little people skills.
She doesn't do what she says she's going to do. She tells you she will fix something. Then she'll deny telling you she'll fix it and blame the problem on you.
When we first met Rhonda, we told her repeatedly, that we would have trouble obtaining a mortgage, because of our credit. She didn't care. She just wanted a warm body in her house paying rent.
We gave her a $1,500 deposit on the house. We were supposed to get a mortgage to buy the house, but because of our credit, we were unable. We've been in the house for nearly four years, paying rent.
She paid $16,000 for the house. So far, we've paid her over $24,000 in rent, PLUS our $1,500 deposit. Yesterday (Oct. 2) she showed up, with an agent from List 'N Sell. He took pictures of the house, so that she can list it and sell it. She is going to sell the house, RIGHT OUT FROM UNDER US!
She abuses her power. One example is that she gave us a six day eviction notice (which is not legal) one week BEFORE our rent was even due!
She gets every water bill from the City of Toledo. We have never received a water bill from the city, or a copy from Rhonda. Every month for the past four years, she has received a water bill, yet I'm expected to pay this water bill, that I never see.
Any time we needed something fixed, it was like pulling teeth without Novocaine. She would say "you're supposed to buy the house, so it's your responsibility to make repairs". But, she won't apply ANY of our rent towards the purchase price. If it's our house, then why is she selling it to someone else.
When she comes to our home, she knocks on the door, incessantly. She will stand at the door and knock for 10 to 15 minutes. Is she stupid or what?
Every month, for the past six months, I've received a hand delivered note, that Rhonda Tersigni is not paying her mortgage on this house.
We will not get our $1,500 deposit back, not to mention the $24,000 in rent. On top of that, there is a big probability of us being EVICTED by the buyer. Don't buy her house; she's just purposely screwing us!
What's wrong with this picture?!
Do not do business with Rhonda Tersigni or her bogus company, Fresh Start Concepts.
