Claimant says: "We terminated our lease agreement with The Chamberlin effective July 31, 2011. We moved out on July 20, 2011. The apartment was cleaned for the exception of the refrigerator, the tiny utility room floor and the wood kitchen/foyer floor. The 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment was only 895 sq.ft. We had a $3000 deposit; they withheld $800 for damages. They were contacted by phone, leaving a message for Sue Moniak, Executive Director, requesting itemization of $800. We faxed and emailed a letter requesting an itemization of $800.”

Apartment was left clean; no damages!*” ...Show less »
