Review: Kab Realty Management LLC

[Tammi]

My spouse and I rented from KAB for nearly 3 years until we moved out of state. We were always great tenants .. rent always on time. Never made a fuss. Bill's apartments are HORRIBLE. There are no vents in the bathroom on market street so our ceiling collapsed, the beams were all rotted and our bathroom was FILLED with mold. They didn't fix the problem, only patched the hole. We eventually left that apartment and moved into another building of his that he just built. He told us it would be a nice building with no section 8 tenants ( which was another lie). We were paying 995.00 a month for a small 2 bedroom apartment ( we didn't want to break our lease after our 1st apartment with them, figured we wanted a positive credit check with them for future). We had crack heads living in our building. The neighbor to the left upstairs always had parties. The police were constantly being called to our building. Fights in the hallway, it was absolutely CRAZY! The apartment was put together fast and poorly. There were no clothes racks or shelves in closets, the flooring in kitchen was coming up. There were holes in our walls / ceiling from where they attempted to put light fixtures up and never patched. He advertised numbered parking, storage in basement, KAT5 internet, and well water all of which was false. The "marble" counter tops were in fact, just wood. He charged us 995.00 for our apartment but couldn't fill up other apartments so started advertising for 795.00. HUGE RIP OFF! We ended up leaving without paying our last months ( but filled our year lease agreement) rent, figured he could keep our security deposit for our rent. About 2 months later he sent a bill to my forwarded address charging us for problems in the apartment that NEVER existed. He charged us for REPLACING CARPETS! The carpet in the living room was a little dirty from people tracking inside with snow but that was all.

The ladies in the office are awesome but they are working for a slum lord.

I am also a tenent here. To be honest, this is one of the worst place I ever had. If you move in, you will see.
People around me move in and out like a hotel. I can not believe this is happening.
I just want to forget this and move out ASAP.

[sigh]

one of the worst place I have ever seem. Tired to deal with all these. Just wait to move out.

I am hoping all these reviews can help you to avoid this place if you happens to come cross.

HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE! Worst apartment I have EVER lived in. My boyfriend and I live in one of there apartments, we always paid our rent on time, were quiet, kept to ourselves. But none of this matters to them. Every room in our apartment leaks. Not just a few drips, every time it rains we have puddles in our bedroom, bathroom, and living room. Our celling caved in TWICE! There is literally wholes in the roof that they have known about since probably before we moved in, and they refuse to fix it. And then, because I only gave them a 48 day notice that we would not be resigning the lease and not 60 days, they say we are breaking our lease and they get to keep our whole security deposit. We paid almost $800 a month for an apartment that leaks on our stuff every time it rains/snows, which in New Hampshire... is a lot.

Don't ever rent an apartment from these people. They don't care about anyone, they just wanna make money on their crappy apartments. Slumlords ALL the way!

I lived in the dover apts on Belknap St, all i can say is crime and fighting. These people do no credit checks or back round checks on anyone they rent to. I think my family was the only one not on section 8 between the 4 buildings, we were the only ones getting up and leaving in the morning. The day I moved into my apt complex the grounds were covered in trash.A few days later they came to clean it up. Well thats when i noticed half of my electrical plugs were not working, I would plug something in and it would fall out. They painted my apt before i moved in and they painted over the previous tenants cat hair on the wall, the mold in the bathroom,the wall paper that use to be in the kitchen. My kitchen draws and cabinet were falling down. The dumpster outside was always overflowing and the stench in the summer of it was unbearable. I called them over to fix the BLACK NASTY MOLD on my bathroom they sprayed it with bleach, 2 weeks later it was back. There are young children outside 3-4 years old outside playing by themselves no adults watching them.They do not care at all about the safety or living conditions of there tenants they want to collect there money and not spend any to fix anything I suggest not to rent from these people.

Me and my husband and 2 year old child live in the Norway plains apt. rochester NH they were brand new 2007, afetr living in a slumlord apt. before we thought this was going to be great, yeh right we had problems like the first week we lived here with partying tennants that lived above us and smoking throwing buts dow on our balcony that were still lit, and spitting!! we complained and Kab said they would talk to them, but it still continued to happen, it says no smoking on the premisses but they are alowing them to do this!! we have always been great tennants I keep a clean place and never wear shoes in side and always pay rent on or before its due!! lotta good Christine in the office tells me and then they call back with some crap about needing to give a 60 day notice instead I need to read my lease!! if the lease is up at the end of the month & you give a 30 day notice that should be it!! I have a lawer we are in contact with so if this happens to anyone else DON"T let them get away with this!! you have rights!! they need to read the lease and follow the rules on it not just the tennant!! and if there is a problem with getting back our security we already know our rights on this also!! so all I can say is if you do rent from them have all keep lots of documentation and you'll have a great day in court if it comes to that!!! they can't get away with the stuff they pull!They promissed a playground and 2 years later I don't see it outside yet!! they had to go before a planning board in the city of rochester with the plans for the building, with curbing & its still not here either!! it's only a matter of time before rochester code enforcment ctches up with them!!:)Don't rent here unless your ready for a long nightmare!!!

Recently moved out, landlords have to be the worse on the planted. Repairs never made, mold growing causing serious health issues to our toddler. Rent always paid on time, they are there to take your money, just are never there to fix hazards, ploice visit on a nightly basis. Unless you are completely deaf and dying. STAY AWAY,
