Main Street Renewal is a property management company that has been accused of engaging in a number of unfair and deceptive practices, including:
- Failing to properly maintain rental properties, resulting in hazardous living conditions for tenants.
- Charging excessive fees for repairs and maintenance.
- Evicting tenants without cause or following proper legal procedures.
- Refusing to return security deposits to tenants.
As a result of these allegations, Main Street Renewal has been the subject of a number of lawsuits. In 2019, a class action lawsuit was filed against the company alleging that it had engaged in a pattern of unfair and deceptive practices. The lawsuit is still ongoing.
In addition to the class action lawsuit, there have been a number of individual lawsuits filed against Main Street Renewal. In 2020, a tenant in Texas sued the company after she was evicted from her apartment for failing to pay rent. The tenant alleged that she had been unable to pay rent because the company had failed to make repairs to her apartment, which had made it uninhabitable. The lawsuit was settled out of court for an undisclosed amount.
In 2021, a tenant in Florida sued the company after she was charged $1,500 for a repair to her apartment that she did not authorize. The tenant alleged that the company had never provided her with an estimate for the repair and that she had not been given the opportunity to decline the repair. The lawsuit is still ongoing.
These are just a few examples of the lawsuits that have been filed against Main Street Renewal. The company has a history of engaging in unfair and deceptive practices, and tenants who have been harmed by the company may have legal recourse.
