This landlord rents out 1177 Paquette St in Sudbury Ontario Canada. He owns other rental properties in the area as well. DO NOT RENT from him!!
For many reasons he does not & will not do maintenance repairs unless he is ordered by court orders & will try to do a little as possible on the court order. In the upper home he rents out, the shower /tub was unusable because the tub surround split. He had witnessed the broken surround & had sent in 2 companies for repair quotes. Each quote was rejected because Franco thought they were too expensive. The tub/shower was unusable for a 67+ days. Even after some repairs were addressed, the new tub surround was separated from the WRONG glue used.
There is mold & mildew in both levels of this duplex.These repairs have not been repaired to code..The tenants are frustrated at this landlord because he only thinks of his wallet & will never have any regards for tenants safety & rights. Obviously he has gotten away with a lot of tenant issues for a long time & the repair list will grow longer.
Franco has been peeking into the windows of his tenants & has been caught in the act. The tenants were so shocked & shaken by this invasion of privacy. He has also been caught posting ads for the upper unit that is not ready for rent. The upper unit is not vacated & had posted his ad illegally because he wants to rent out for a higher price. The actions of this man are not the actions of a responsible landlord & should be held liable for these actions mentioned...
The dryer in the building isnt working well. the element is going & drying laundry costs doubles. Its cheaper to go to laundromat to dry clothes.
This landlord is being reported so others do not have to find out the hard way. If you find this man's name attached to properties in the sudbury area, DO NOT RENT from him!!!
