AREA Properties

On Monday Sept. 13, 2021 a representative from Area Properties came to my storage unit and opened the door, yelling out my name. No one from Area Properties had contacted me prior to this, not by phone or Internet or in person. She then informed me that I was living in my storage unit and had to vacate by 5 pm. This choice, she claimed was made from the statements made to her by another tennant. I attempted to tell her that I had been at my unit that weekend alot because I was moving items from one storage into my new one and late night was the only time I could do this but she was hysterical and refused to listen to reason. She then proceeded to hang out by the unit and the other tennant pulled up and they then proceeded to discuss the situation. I had informed her, upon her accusations, that I was not in fact living in the storage unit and reminded her of my address, which they have on file in the Area Properties office, at 1490 Commercial St. Suite 100, Astoria Or. The employee, Cindy, was completely unreasonable and proceeded to yell over me when I attempted to explain my presence at my storage unit. I was there late into the night organizing my belongings and felt unsafe leaving my property there because of a faulty lock that I had complained about once already. I was unbelievably tired and had recently contracted covid, unknown to me, and when I sat down to rest I passed out from sheer exhaustion. This unprofessional and rude employee stayed there after I left and badmouthed me to the other tennant while continuing to discuss me. Any information about me or opinion about me should not be shared with anyone, let alone another tennant. I have a witness to the slander that was committed on that day. When I returned to my unit later that day, I found a note that stated I must be completely out by Friday, September 17th 2021. The next day, September 14th I contacted Area Properties via phone to inform them of my recent quarantine at Quality Inn in Seaside Or. She said she would contact the owner and get back to me which she did, and then stated that I still have to get out by Friday the 17th and that my recent illness was not their problem. Also there is nothing in our contract that says they can do what they are doing, it does not say I cannot live there even though I do not live there I also says they have to mail me I notice and give me 30 days, everything they are doing is illegal.

Meagan Lewis is super rude and unprofessional. Do not provide help at all and make decision on the owner behalf without even taking their opinion. She cares only about her commission. I do not recommend Meagan Lewis as a real estate agent.

We had a great experience with Jean Peterson. She did her job well without any pressure. She was very experienced.
