COMPLAINT DETAILS (from renter)

When my sister and I first moved into our apartment we were given a check list to make sure everything was in good condition, walls, carpet etc. (We were never allowed to view the apartment prior to moving in). When we returned the checklist we told our leasing consultant, Lori Davis, about my sister being bitten. We told her there were bugs crawling in the carpet and she showed her the bites, but nothing was done to resolve the matter. Later, after finding a bug and researching it, we were able to identify it has a bed bug. We then notified the property manager, Donna Evans, that they were identifiable as bed bugs. She wrote us a letter stating we are responsible for the extermination totaling to $1,392.00. These bugs were pre-existing and I do not feel that we are responsible for any extermination costs or any other extermination costs to other units. I also found a review by a former tenant claiming they also had a bug problem when they lived here too.
