American Homes 4 Rent…they sign a lease and then they don’t hold to the lease when the terms are no longer beneficial to them. Have a lease that auto renewed for a 3 month period with a 3% increase. Well, they sent me an email telling me they were terminating my lease…4 days before it they thought it was expiring. When in reality it has autorenewed 45 days prior because neither myself or them gave a 45 day notice. When I pointed this out they backdated a email and said they cancelled my lease 45 days ago. I had spoken with the leasing agent prior to that time and was assured it autorenewed. I also spoke with the property manager that said they were trying to get more money out of people that autorenewed but to never tell them she told me so. I am a real estate broker and understand real estate law so she confided. At this time they have strongarmed me into signing a 30 day lease with a $250 increase this month and with a $400 increase next month. The new lease allows them to enter my home at any time they deem “reasonable” as well as other not normal leasing requirement…because they know I cannot move before tomorrow, Sept. 1. I will be reporting them to the real estate commission but beyond that I just see them doing this to people all over the usa and want anyone to see this to not even consider them. They update the homes so they look beautiful, but at this point I will move out in 30 days, have no where to go, but rather live in a box than give them another penny. .

American Homes 4 Rent (AM4R) stole my
American Homes 4 Rent (AM4R) stole my security deposit by making false claims against it, and provided no proof. I broke my lease, happily paid the 2 month penalty in compliance with my lease, and then proceeded to follow move out instructions to maintain a positive relationship with the company in hopes of retrieving my security deposit. Prior to move out, I had the following actions performed on the home: Hired a professional cleaning company to ensure the home was as clean, or cleaner than it was when I moved in. They cleaned the home for 4 hours, and provided me with an invoice. Hired a lawn maintenance company. They trimmed privacy hedges, reshaped them, mowed the grass, edged up every side of the home, and left the lawn in perfect condition. They also provided me an invoice. Hired professional carpet cleaners. I paid extra for deodorization, deep steam clean and dry. They provided an invoice upon completion detailing their service. AM4R then tried to claim against the security deposit for a variety of issues including carpet replacement, miniblind damage, home cleaning service, acid washing for showers, and others. They claimed it would take my entire security deposit and then another $500 to cover the claim. I requested proof of damage to carpet, miniblinds, etc, and have received none other than their “Field Supervisor’s word” that the damages were real. When I told them I would challenge them in court, they sold the debt to a collections agency. AM4R has violated Florida Statutes, and will pay in court. They co-mingle security deposits, and remove them from accounts prior to the legally allowed dates. Do no rent from AM4R because they will steal from you, and hide behind collections agencies to try to intimidate you.

This company would not help me when
This company would not help me when my air conditioning didn’t work, I had to pay to have it fixed myself, the when the heat went out and it was below zero they wouldn’t send anyone to fix the heater until i threatened to report them to the attorney generals office. They then said they didn’t receive my rent money so I sent them the bank statement clearly showing they did receive the money and they said that wasn’t good enough. I called the bank and they put a claim thru, and refunded the money to me. I paid the rent again to avoid a late charge and I thought everything was ok until the bank said that American homes 4 rent denied my claim so the bank took the money back. I called AH4R and they would not explain why they denied the claim, they wouldn’t return my calls or emails and would not give me any direction as to what I needed to do since I would not renew my lease. I finally moved out and received a huge bill from AH4R with all kinds of charges including “light bulb out in the garage”, hangers in the closet, dusty blinds (it was a full month before they even sent anyone there to look at the house). It was just a horrible experience and I can not get anyone to explain what happened to my rent and depoit. Now I received a bill from a collection agency saying I owe an additional $890.00! I have filed a claim with the Illinois attorney Generals Office and a contacting my attorney. The people in the Schaumburg, IL office that I had to deal with, Nasir Salim and Nancy (idiot) do not even pretend to care about customer service.
