Dominic D Spence 5607 Windwood Rd Atlanta, Ga 30349
Deposit Amount : usp_custom_field : 1150.00
Dominic bought the property I was renting in August 2019 without seeing the property. He informed me that my deposit I paid to the previous owner was transferred to him. I am on the housing choice voucher program with East Point Housing Authority. They require the landlords to make repairs and Dominic never made any repairs even after I told him the unit failed inspection. The housing authority gave him an opportunity to make the repairs and have a reinspection, Dominic sent a repair man to the property to get an estimate, the repair man called me to tell me that he has no heard back from Dominic so he can not make the repairs. The date the housing authority gave him to complete the repairs came and went. The housing authority put the unit into abatement and informed Dominic that he would not receive any rent for July until the repairs were made and informed me that I could move. I moved out of the unit July 29th 2020, I hired a cleaning company to come clean the unit from top to bottom as we were moving out so that each room would be freshly vacated and cleaned. I have contacted Dominic on July 13th via email & we agreed that he would return my deposit once I vacated. I asked him on July 13th 2020 can we coordinate a date and time after I vacate and I informed him I would be out no later than the 31st of July but it could be sooner. I never heard back until August 2nd and all he said was he needed to know when I would be out and I informed him I had already vacated, and I asked him when he was sending my deposit and what method would he be using. I did not hear back from Dominic until August 4th at which time he told he I had to mail him my keys he lives in Florida and after he receives the keys he would do a walk through and then I could get my deposit. This made no sense to me, because there was no mention of mailing the keys out of state or the walk through during our initial discussion about my deposit. This sent a red flag up so I asked him can we just pick a date that he would do the walk through and I would meet him or whomever at the property and they conduct the walk through and take possession of the keys and the property and I never heard back. I mailed Dominic the keys August 5th 2020. I have emailed Dominic multiple time about my deposit and he refuses to respond. It has been over a month and I do not forfeit my deposit. I wish to take legal action.
