    This is an interesting development, no online information. But when I signed my contract I was told that there was “no such problems at all” Still I got talking to the security personnel and they hand me a copy of every single dispute for the last 5 years. It is a LOT of reading. I am not the first person to complain...

    I was then told that the people don’t see this when they sign up because it will be bad for business. But he assured me that I will not be the first person taking drastic steps against the owners. The records are structured in such a way that there are basically no names “This is the version that we are entitled to or so it was explained to me. He said that a second “more complete” record exists and if I am to make a case that the information will be made available.

    The Security boss is really a stand-up kind of person. He told me that there used to be a screening process where people would be interviewed before they could rent a place. This system was dropped due to the sudden need to make profit. And I was told it is more or less when the trouble started.

    The Security boss in question told me that he would be happy to assist me. However the trouble maker got his final notice and he must move out within the given time line. All of this sounds good the only problem is it took me a long time to get this far... I am still set on moving out myself if my finances will allow it.

        You don't need to find the owner. Your lease agreement will have an address where you can deliver legal notices on your landlord.

        However, if they're moving out the troublemakers, it would be a shame to give up just as you're about to get what you wanted in the first place.

          I agree. You've managed to make a change for the betterment of the community. There was obviously something that attracted you to the place, so keep with that and make the landlord hate having to deal with you. I know it seems like a huge fiasco, but in the end you can take this guy to task. Keep those wanting to move in informed of what goes on. After all, all it takes is a few turned heads for corruption to rise.

            I don’t like giving up but to be honest it was the promise of good security that attracted me to this place. It still is the main reason why I am thinking; stay or go... However my contract is coming to an end soon and as nice as it is to win! I am still shopping around if I see something a bit bigger or better then it is time to move on... however I got a few months to go and just maybe... I will renew it
