Bull****

[Jigtri]

[color=DarkSlateBlue]I had a prob. with another tenant for almost a year, I wrote landlord maybe 3 weeks ago. Tenant served 3-day notice. Three weeks ago landlord moved manager onto property. Landlord has rented property to all black families except one besides the manager now. In the last 3 wks police have been called upteen times. Ton of cries of intimidation. Claims agent is intimidated and afraid to show apts. Lots of lies being told. Claims of gang activity going on. Kids can't have there baseball bats or other weaponlike toys outside. Teenagers can't sit on their cars in lot and talk to friends. We're told to keep our kids in the house. The manager rudely tells visitors not to double park, yells at them to move now! If they tell them they'll just be a minute, picking up kids, he continues yelling. If they're rude back, he just keeps on adlibbing. Then calls police and cries intimidation. He tells other tenants things about other tenants. The tenant I complained on, he told her that I was the cause of her eviction. He walks around the property with beer as he conducts his job. Police says he's full of **** and his position is going to his head. One night I ask a question about telling other tenants business and he he rudely told me that he was manager and could do whatever the hell he wanted. So I stated "Well u keep on doing what u r doing and you're going to make someone whoop your ***." Intimidation. Told police and boss I said that I was about to kick his ***. I rcv'd 3-day notice, clear and present danger. Was told I could stay if I found another place to stay until lease was up(july 31) or I could testify against other tenant being evicted. The landlord herself is saying the boys r the problem. Even though I was having problems with the tenant, I had no other problems until he got there. He was calling police on my boys for nothing. I noticed he approached my visitors more than other tenants. Now that I have notice to move, it kinda seems like I was baited and fell right into the trap. He's not doing what he was doing before, calling police and running to people cars being rude and arguing with them. By him being a 5ft 3 in, 110 lb man, why would you stand there and start an argument or keep an argument going when he could just call the police.(so he can cry intimidation).
What do you think, any advise?? I can use all I can get.

You seem to have it figured out. You could appeal to the landlord and it may be worth it to write and clarify what happened and explain that the manager was bad, acted unreasonably intimidated at certain people because of their race, and that you believed this conduct to be illegal and improper. On a practical note, it is maybe better that you will get to move elsewhere because you were not wanted there and I do not think you would ever have peace there. Sorry.
