I am currently living in an apartment with an upstairs neighbor with a barking dog….

In the lease it STRICTLY forbids people from having a dog. The rental office has already been notified… They refuse to do nothing……

What are my options at this point.

In response to the person who had a leak where the water was coming in near an outlet, I would suggest calling the fire dept to come and inspect that as a possible fire hazard. Our hendersen webb apt had lights flickering and it wasn’t the lamps. Of course HenWebb is not savvy enough to realize that if there were a fire, their interests would be compromised, and they didn’t respond in a timely fashion. We called the fire dept’s non emergency number and they quickly investigated it and made hendersen webb do what they rarely do- what is right.

henderson webb is currently in the process of d!cking me over. in the first month that i moved in, my dishwasher was broken(never worked till maintenance finally came), bathroom sink valve and knob were broken, bathroom shower valve and knob were broken and bees were coming in through my bedroom window. as the year went on it got worse, the stairwell lights were off for an hour of darkness in the morning and hour of darkenss at night till i called in enough times and eventually claimed that i would unhook the coaxial cable and solder in my own timer circuit board on the control board in the laundry room…then they turned on. this entire summer i had NO AIR CONDITIONING. ever lay awake at 2am in a puddle of your own sweat, not fun. i called in august and told them (over 3 months from end of my lease) that i would not be renewing. they said they’d put a note in the system and just put it in writing whenever i got the chance….i put it in writing with still over 30 days in advance(hadta make sure i had a place to move to first). henwebb sent me a letter claiming i owe them my final month’s rent PLUS 2 additional months rent for breaking my lease(yeah, the one i told them i didnt want to renew). i told them they can go to h3ll and i’m filing a complaint with the attorney general and better business bureau(plus as many online places like this as i can) and that if they want my last month’s rent they’ll let me out of my lease, otherwise they’re not getting a single extra cent from me. f emm.

When I lived in Hendersin (sic) Webb’s apt, we had a fire, but we had no insurance. The fire was in the bathroom. When we unloaded the kitchen cupboards (we had one day to move) they were untouched by the fire. A lady in the blg. told me that they had replaced the cupboards when they restored the place. Sure enough, it was listed in the court papers, but there was no picture of damaged cupboards. I am disabled and unable to pay them at this time. I’d rather owe it to them than cheat them out of it.

I have never paid my rent late. Lets start out there.
Every time I have called management they were rude.
We had a squirrel infestation in our walls. I live in an apt in the Paths at Loveton Farms where I pay over $1100 per month. It took 3 calls to get the maintenence department to actually come out…the same maintainence department who I see parked out front of my apartment smoking in their van every morning at 8 am…then when they did come out they cut a big hole in my wall and ghetto-rigged a cage to the wall with duct tape to catch the squirrel. Needless to say, brilliant as this was, the squirrel escaped and was running around my spare bedroom and then escaped again through the hole in the wall. Then it took them 3 weeks to patch the hole in my wall (it was December). The squirrel has since scratched 2 holes through my wall and they tell me there is nothing to be done. The squirrel is still in my walls screaching and scratching.
Every time I ask for a repair they dont do anything. I have called 5 times in 2 weeks to have my washer repaired.
Also I have made numerous complaints about screens just falling out of the windows when the tiniest bit of pressure is applied. Again, to no avail.
The tenants in my building have also had their mail and packages stolen and management told me “why are you telling us this?” like they shouldnt be alerted of the federal offense going on in their community.
Does anyone know who writes their property insurance? I would love to raise some eyebrows with the hazards that are abundant in all of their buildings…

I will be happy to make complaints to anyone who might be able to rectify the unscrupulous slumlords that are Henderson Webb

I have had my own slew of problems post move out. I’ve already filed a complaint with the better business bureau – and am about to file one with the Attorney General’s Office.

Every time it snows, the weather is very cold so it freezes. They NEVER come to the streets to put salt around to avoid people falling and causing accidents! It’s just ridiculous how they freak out about not getting their money on time and not care about the ice situation. Also I’ve been having some issues w/ the stove and I use it like 24/7 literally! I call them and ask them to come fix it, they come and I don’t know what they do, but it never gets fixed and I keep having the same problem..they need to pay more attention to their customers instead of raising the rent every single year!

You people seriously need to READ your leases before signing them. Almost every complaint I’ve seen on this site is about things that are addressed in all standard leases. Quit bitching because you signed a legal document without reading it first. And dude who created this blog, rent is due the FIRST of every month, just because you have a grace period doesn’t mean you can wait until the middle of the grace period and still expect your rent to arrive on time. Use some common freakin’ sense!

Do not rent from Henderson-Webb… I lived in Tall Pines Apartments in Glen Burnie, MD from January 1st 2008-December 31st 2008… You can’t be standing outside smoking or just talking to your neighbors because they would say that you loitering… I had a major roach problem and they wouldn’t come out and spray… I had to go to wal-mart and get the spray to do it myself… Parking is a major problem if you come home after 5 PM good luck with finding a parking space… Theres no assign parking or a limit on how many cars you can have… Some people has 4/5 different cars just for 2/3 people… I’ve had many issues living here but now I’m glad I’m out of there… oh and they up your rent every year… Also when you call customer service and ask to speak to management they tell you to write a letter and fax it to management that you can’t speak directly to management… What BS is that? also the washer in the laundry room always leaked and I even fall injuring my knee cap but yet they don’t even care…

I fulfilled my year’s lease unhappily. I had huge constant bugs and a airconditioner that leaked and ruined my things. When I went to leave after a year they said that I had AUTOMATICALLY signed up for a new lease by not visiting their office at some unspecified time. So I just left and have a huge credit problem now. I hate them.
