Camden Martinique Apartments

The Fire Alarm Control Panel in Camden has a very loud beep that can be heard 24 hours a day coming from the entrance of the B building. About every five or six seconds, it puts out one ear piercing beep that is loud enough for me to regularly notice from every room in my apartment in another building. It stop occasionally for a day or two and starts back up again beeping for weeks. This problem seems like a never ending issue and prevents a peaceful atmosphere during bedtime and throughout the night

It’s a pretty quiet area in a convenient location, but I do NOT feel safe having anything delivered to my door due to the non stop package theft my neighbors have been experiencing. There has also been several car break ins and homeless people doing drugs and staying in the staircases or laundry rooms. Trash “valet” is mandatory in your lease and so is the internet and cable. And the additional parking fee is $100, not $30 per their website. They also have a tendency to double book assigned parking spaces so your car is at risk to be towed. Security is practically non-existent now and management’s response is almost always call the police for any problems. One time, a resident saw a homeless person using the jacuzzi! Now, there are also ducks hanging out at the pool. 🦆 Their service maintenance team is excellent though, I hope that doesn’t change since it’s one of the very few perks of living here.

I wish I can give you a 0!! This complex absolutely doesn’t care about your safety, cars are broken on regular basis and the complex of 6 buildings has ONLY 3-4 cameras and they’re all placed around or in the leasing office!! L O L ?! Another BIZARRE thing is they’ll make you pay (it’s must) for something they call ‘valet trash’ which means you’ll leave ur trash outside the door and person will come at 10p to pick it up. That sounds good until you realize that dumpster is 10feet away from u and the person who should pick up ur trash DOESNT show up every day 😂 in other words you’ll either take out your own trash or leave it at the door for 2 days while they’re going around TAKING PICTURES and penalizing people who has it outside while you paying monthly!! Fun right? I’ve been here for 5yrs and I don’t even have enough time to write down how many bad things I saw here! Ps office staff: dont even bother yourself writing a response and explaining that u understand me because u don’t, we know each other very well (unfortunately) EDIT: Office stuff please show me your cameras on the property ill stop by 😂 😂 also, yes u charge people for valet trash (fancy thing) but we are not discussing that right?? 🤔 (and u charge them more than 30$ be honest at least once) what I’m saying is that your service is a joke and you’re taking peoples money

The Carlos Show

"Dear Camden Martinique Management Team, I am writing to you requesting to break my lease with a penalty fee exemption and 30 day notice due extreme circumstances, including Camden Martinique's negligence to fulfill basic expectations under said lease. Since moving into (unit) in July 2019, several issues explained below have occurred that have ultimately led to this point and necessity to break the lease. On August 6, 2019, in an attempt to walk around debris that was not properly cleaned up and blocked off from the concrete planter construction in front of my unit, I severely broke my toe which required an Emergency Room visit with bills totaling over $4,000. I could not walk unassisted by crutches for 5 weeks and required 3 unpaid days off work. If the debris were cleaned appropriately as they should have been, this incident would not have occurred. Frankly, Camden Martinique could be held liable for the incidence and related expenses if I chose to pursue legal action. The stairs attached to my bedroom wall rattle each and every time someone walks up or down them. This means that both my husband and I are woken up several times per night, every single night, since moving in. This sleep deprivation has affected my work, led to the development of frequent migraines, and overall has detrimentally affected my health. I simply cannot take any more nights of interrupted sleep and the sleep deprivation we have experienced. The patio, a major reason why we signed a lease at Camden Martinique, has been unusable since moving in. Within days of move-in, construction began on the concrete planter adjacent to the apartment, leading to a thick layer of mud on the patio. We were assured the mess would be cleaned upon completion of the project. We have since requested it be cleaned on 3 separate occasions, both in person and via email, which has still not been completed to this day, over the course of the past 6 months, which is completely inexcusable. We emailed Michael Raskin 11/12/19 with photos of our muddy patio, caused by the construction debris and rainwater, and still, the matter was not addressed. We have been paying for space, month after month, that we have not been able to utilize, and our limit of patience has been far exceeded. Upon signing the lease over a month before move-in, we toured the outside of the unit as it was occupied, where there were plenty of trees and bushes surrounding the unit, allowing for adequate privacy. However, upon move-in, the trees and bushes were torn out, which allows for any person walking by to see directly into the unit through the bedroom window and sliding patio door. Consequently, to avoid invasion of privacy, my only option is to keep the blinds closed at all times, leaving the unit dark and dim 24/7. If I were previously informed, prior to signing the lease, that the unit would lose all it's privacy due to the landscaping project, we never would have signed a lease for this unit. We feel the unit was misrepresented and substantially changed between the time we signed the lease and moved in. The shower is inadequate for use for any person over 4' tall. The shower head protrudes from the wall at approximately 5' high, which requires both my husband and I (5'6" and 6'0") to crouch under the shower head, to adequately wash our hair and upper bodies. I have attached a photo to demonstrate just how completely ridiculous the shower is. An appropriately usable shower is a basic expectation of living under the lease at Camden Martinique. Lastly, despite skepticism, we have had unexplainable instances occur that are extremely alarming and baffling. We have had heavy objects (20+lbs) get pushed off furniture, with no plausible cause (video attached). Our dog aggressively alerts us to something that we cannot see, with hairs standing up, and aggressive barking. These instances have continued to escalate in frequency and intensity over the past several months. (Letter cuts off due to max characters) Sincerely," Carlos and Kylie
