I moved into one of the apartments managed by this company less than two weeks ago. I am now dealing with bedbugs in my apartment due to the gross negligence of this company in their inability to get rid of the bugs and make the apartment habitable before we moved in. My husband had bites the first night we slept here.
They disclosed that there had been apartments that had had bedbug problems, but said that ours had not had any after we explicitly asked. It now turns out from various sources in this building that that was not true. Not disclosing that information is not legal in NYC, as well as renting out an infested apartment.
After my international move from a country where, incidentally, there are no bedbugs, this is just a giant pain to deal with. Anyone who has dealt with this will know. On top of that the company has failed to send us our signed copy of our lease and the bedbug-report.
If anyone here has had a similar problem perhaps we could share our experiences, maybe take legal action. I am worried that this will turn into something that will be very time consuming, costly and unpleasant, generally.
