I relocated to South Lake Tahoe and signed a lease with Mountain View Management. My fiance and I looked at several apartments managed by this company that were all very dirty and smelly. We settled on the least dirty of the apartments and, after applying, were told that the company didn't get tenants as qualified as we were. On move in day, there was a realtor's sign in the window. I asked the property manager why it was there and she said, ""The owners didn't tell me it was for sale."" After speaking with the realtor, we discovered that Mountain View knew it was for sale and that the owners never consented to a year lease. Needless to say, we moved out after a week of living there and spent several hundred dollars moving a second time.
I was hoping my experience with this company was an isolated incident but judging by the other reviews it doesn't sound like that was the case. Much like another reviewer, we are considering legal action and reporting this company to the Business Bureau.
