I appreciate that my claim has been sent to the board of directors. I have not paid my condo fees for the past few months because Simmons is now 7 months overdue in paying my claim.  I would like to know exactly when I will be reimbursed. Simmons has been delinquent and promising my reimbursement now for several months and I need to have them pay for the damages before I seek legal action. I am assuming that since this has been presented to the board, that I will be paid in 30 days ???
 Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:  I appreciate the response. I have not paid my dues for the past few months because Simmons has been promising me this money for several months now. Luckily I have not hired a lawyer or submitted late fees. I would like to know exactly when I will be paid. I will be more than happy to become up to date on my dues when I receive my check.
Regards,
[redacted]

August 19, 2014
As a follow up to out response correspondence dated August 15, 2014, it has been found that the address of concern is [redacted], MD [redacted], concerning a main plumbing valve repair. On July 18, 2014, management sent a certified plumber to the unit to inspect the water leak and found that the leaking pipe is originating from a pipe that only services **. & [redacted] of [redacted]'s unit. Management sent and email to [redacted] advising that the repairs are the unit owners responsibility on July 28, 2014.
On August 5,2014. management sent a follow up email to [redacted] to confirm if they would still like for management to send out a plumber for repairs, and if so, any costs incurred will be at the owners’ expense in accordance to the By-Laws Article XIV. Section 4, Duty to Maintain, [redacted] responded the same day advising they will have their own plumber make repairs but also found that their units’ main shut off valve broke due to water pressure. Therefore the main shut off valve that will be affecting neighboring units will need to be shut off in order to complete full repair.
Management requested the date and time their plumber will be scheduled so that management can send a notice out to all owners s who will be affected with the water shut off, providing at least (72) hours of notice. Management also asked [redacted] to keep in mind the work will have to be scheduled after 9:30 a.m. and completed by 4:00pm considering this is the time owners will most lively come home from work to cook dinner etc, As of today's date, we have not received a date from the owner on when their plumber is scheduled for repairs.
Our company does not take owners concerns lightly and does what we can to ensure our property managers meet and exceed their roles and responsibilities as well as keeping owners informed of what the Association’s and Owner's responsibilities are in accordance to the Association’s governing documents. 1We hope this information helps you to conclude that management has done what we can to communicate with the [redacted] family in resolving this matter and has met out fiduciary duty. Please do not hesitate to give me a call at ###-###-####. should you have any questions regarding this matter.

Hello,
Simmons Management Group "SMG" was the property management company for our condominium community for approx 2.5 years. During this period SMG handled our financial very poorly, did not pay the association bills, jeoperdized the sale of a unit and continues to jeoperdize our financial account by not fully transitioning to the new property management company. As a community we have had to deal with fake invoices, unfinished work, unauthorized work and mysterious charges.

Review: This joke of a company is trying to tell me the main plumbing valve is my responsibility to fix. That I need to turn off the water to the whole row of townhouses (6 in this row) and just notify the Simmons when I plan on doing this. These is are saying that a "common " plumbing line, that if is turned off, will effect 5 other residents, is my responsibility. They are threatening to charge me for a plumber (one that they choose) to come out to diagnose this problem, after a plumber that I hired has said what the problem is. All this even after pointing out in the bylaws that any "common" plumbing that effects more than one residence is the responsibility of the property management company. These people just don't care about the customer at all. They are rude on the phone, if you are even lucky enough to get ahold of someone, and they are very uneducated about theirs roles of a property manager.Desired Settlement: I would like the problem to be fixed. The plumbing has already ruined some drywall. We have taken safety measures to prevent mold but, this is an on going battle. If they fix the main valve then the valves down line and the leaky pipes can then be fixed as well. A licensed plumber has told me that the work will not be guaranteed unless the water can be completely shut off allowing for a proper repair to take place.
