With my final followup and to help protect the average consumer and renter, please read again my original complaint here. The Arrico owner not only takes 3 years to respond to this complaint but also states my legal representation must have told me I had no case. To the owner Paul Arrico, read my complaint again. My legal representation informed me as stated in the complaint that I had every right to vacate because of your poor service and response times. Therefore there was no suit needed.
You have lost your business reputation along time ago. There is no need for me to try and ruin your reputation when you have none. My overall point here, the people need to know the truth and RipOff Reports provides the truth to the consumer.
Just because your in business since 2008 doesn't mean your a good company. Companies go out of business all the time for various reasons. Listen to the news on how many companies go out of business because they steal from clients. Look at investment companies as an example and how many people lose their retirements. You are no different as a company.
Consumers, renters, investors and buyers please stay away from Arrico as it would be in your best interest.
Thank you Ripoff Report

Short sweet and to the point, after this owner decided to finally respond to this complaint 3 years later. How funny this should also be an example of how quickly they responded to rental issues and why they are such a bad property management company. I am a realestate investor, do you really want to take a chance with them signing an agreement is the question. Your choice but take it from me it will be a disaster and you will suffer because they do not care. Goodluck if you really want to take a chance. I will say it again bery very poor company, management and owner.
STAY AWAY

First, let me inform everyone that this is a common security deposit dispute. The tenant did not fulfill his obligation of the lease, skipped out on rent and left the property damaged and dirty. We followed correct procedures as outlined in FS 83 Landlord/Tenant law and made claim against the security deposit. Funds were insufficient to cover the expenses. We made agreement with tenant that he would make payments on the deficit. Tenant stopped paying due to personal reasons. At that point we were instructed by the owner (for whom we are obligated to) to turn the remaining balance to a collection company.
He threatened lawsuit but we never heard from attorney. Most likely because his attorney advised him he did not have a case.
Instead he resorted to trying to ruin our reputation via online means.
These are the facts:
1: We have been in business since 1/8/2008
2: We have managed 100's of homes ranging from large hedge fund ownership to the single owner that was moved due to job change/relocation, military relocation or simply to upsize/downsize current home.
3: We have very few (4) complaints.
4: Tenant complaints like this one are from those that disagree with our findings of discrepancies after move-out review which require forfeiting some or all of the deposit to repair items or otherwise attempt to make the owner whole due to their negligence.
