The pipes UNDER my apartment were installed wrong and so, naturally, Kara West is charging me for the repairs! I'm also being charged an extra $200 a month to have my dishwasher and microwave ripped out of the kitchen with no replacement! Each month! Fun! No hot water in 2023, but plenty of cold water pouring into my closet and bedroom!

STAY AWAY FROM KARA WEST!!
STAY AWAY FROM KARA WEST!!
It’s been a month and a half since we requested repair service/emergency assessment after a portion on the living room/kitchen ceiling came down due to Hurricane Ian (Sept 28th). We tried to contact the office through email every week to get updates on the service requested and they never gave us a day or anything, alleging that we were not the only tenants having that issue.
After the first month, I was getting headaches on a daily basis and on Thursday Nov 3rd, I... started to feel bad, got sick and passed out during work. That’s when I realized that something really bad was going on.
On November 8th I went to see the property manager at the office, she was very nice to me and said that she was going to speak to the owner of the building to let him know what’s going on and she will get back to me on the following days.
On November 11th, two other portions of the ceiling came down exposing mold on the drywall and spreading the blown-out insulation throughout the apartment unit. Everything got contaminated and I left the apartment for the weekend because I had trouble breathing and headaches started again.
They DON’T care about the tenants, they are super good at collecting rent but inefficient and irresponsible with the their tenants.
If you care about your health and life quality, STAY AWAY FROM KARA WEST!!

Hello, we apologize for any delay in your maintenance service. Our goal is to service each apartment within 48 hours of the initial request, it seems that we have missed the mark. There was high demand during Hurricane Ian and our team was doing our... absolute best to keep up. Our residents health and safety is our #1 priority and we take issues like these very seriously. We would like to make sure we get this resolved. Please e-mail us at management@dasmenresidential.com with better contact information if you are still having issues so we may be in touch with you directly. Thank you!

They falsely represent their availability and never answer the phone after I called 6 times in a day they told me they don’t have 2 or 3 bedrooms available and have no idea when they will be available and they can’t refund my money.
