I rented a home from Buehler one year ago. We wanted the house because of the location, it was perfect for us. Nice area, affordable rent and it was close to everything we needed. I should have done a little bit of research before we rented. We looked at the house and on the property is a large barn/storage building. It was the selling point on this house. We are a merged household and have a lot of duplicate things and this barn was the perfect solution. After 2 weeks of jumping through hoops we finally go in to sign the lease. That's when we find out that the barn is not included, that it belongs to Buehlers son or grandson and that we will not have access to it. Oh yeah and the stove and fridge that were in the house when we looked at it were going to be removed. Angry does not even begin to cover it. We had to move, the people who were moving into my old house were sitting in the driveway with a uhaul. I had to pay their uhaul and hotel bill for 3 days because I couldn't get out of the house because Buehler kept giving me the run around. It was a nightmare. I have pets, I told her that. I had the pet deposit in hand. I was told ""don't worry about that unless you must want to pay another $150"". I really wanted to press the issue and now I am sorry I didn't. My lease says no pets and they know I have them. I had gone in to pay my rent and had Buelher himself grill me about them. ""Well, we would hate to lose a good tennant over something like this."" I got a letter in the mail reminding me of the no pet policy. For the past year I have been scared that they were going to kick me out over this. I have spent well over $500 fixing things in this house. I have replaced fixtures, repaired doors, replaced tiles, and painted all because I was scared to call them. I have had people in my house when I wasn't home and I have no idea why they were there because I didn't call for anything to be repaired. I have 2 dogs, both are friendly, sweet and loving. They are also protective. I have been scared to death someone was going to come in while I'm not home and get bitten and then there would be hell to pay. I put a padlock on my backyard to keep the neighbor's kids from letting my dog out and the padlock got cut off. I can't prove it but I think they cut the lock off to get to the barn. We were told that they were replacing the carpet and the tile throughout the house. They did put in new carpet, a horrible brown and no carpet pad. Their version of new linoleum in the kitchen was to glue down the mismatched and cracked tile that was already on there. It is awful, I refuse to let anybody in my kitchen because it is embarassing. They have done NOTHING they said they were going to, have lied to me repeatedly and tricked me into signing a lease so they could use it against me. They have never returned a phone call for any reason. The only bright spot is Leisia (?) who works the front. She is always friendly and even a year later still knows my name. She is wasted on them and I really hope she can find a job where she is appreciated.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Haven't found any
