Review of Wassmer Properties – Woodland Triangle, 40508
“Wassmer is a slum lord, plain and simple. Lynne Dunn manages some of his properties for him and will be your main point of contact. If you’ve never rented before, she might seem okay, but let me assure you: she is useless. Her job, as far as I can tell, is to make as much money for Wassmer as possible without any consideration for basic renter’s rights. There is no maintenance ever so good luck if something breaks or there are bugs (which happens often)! Lynne will either ignore you or tell you to take care of it yourself. Sometimes, she will say she’s sending someone out and nothing happens. The fixture remains broken and contacting her again does not help. All the workmanship in the apartments is shoddy and the roof leaks all the time. The sink is constantly clogging, the oven never works right, and the neighbors are always throwing huge parties which I guess isn’t the landlord’s fault exactly but it isn’t a great situation. Expect to see empty beer cans and broken bottles in the parking lot at all times along with the overflowing trash bins, roaches, and one time, actual raw sewage coming up from the ground! That was a fun week. Overall, a terrible place to live. Would not recommend. The landlord and the property manager aren’t good people. Sorry to whoever is renting this place after us! Wish I could’ve warned you.”
