College Court: Reimburse Rent for Unlivable Conditions and Emotional Anguish


College Court: Reimburse Rent for Unlivable Conditions and Emotional Anguish
The Issue
College Court management has been unprofessional with their failure to accommodate, recognize, nor respond promptly to the health conditions I suffered within my unit. For 46 days after putting in my first work request, I was completely without functioning air conditioning in my bedroom or bathroom. For 35 of those days, I was unable to stay at the apartment due to the effects on my health, comfort, and well being. At no time did College Court offer reimbursement or a break of the lease. I was paying rent for a room I could not live in.
On June 18, I filed a complaint within Better Business Bureau. The BBB has received no response from the business as of today. I have received no apology or acknowledgement of negligence. On Tuesday, June 14, I posted this letter on the front door of the leasing office, and stated that if I received no appropriate response by close of business Friday, June 17, I would pursue further action within the community. Here is a copy of the letter. http://postimg.org/image/8w8exvfv9/

Copy of one email regarding negative health effects on resident: http://postimg.org/image/4129z3ugl/
Student housing tends to take advantage of their student residents. For most of us, it is our first time living off campus and renting our own apartment. I am not the only resident who has have problems with both maintenance and management. College Court has failed to acknowledge my one voice, so please help me by adding yours.
