PORTLAND SIGNATURE PROPERTY

We moved from a rental property Tracy Smith managed on Hoodview Court. We called the carpet cleaners and handyman that Tracy used and had them clean and prepare the house "the way Tracy wanted it to look," in order to get our deposit back, paying over $400.00 for those services, plus having the place professionally cleaned (over $250.00). We were billed $375.00 for "failure to paint and touch up white wood work throughout house." There was one bannister rail and a 1"x mark on an outside post that was not painted. The apartment had not been painted when we moved in a year ago, and did not need to be painted when we moved out. The touch-up done was without flaws. Tracy did not call us when he did the final walk-through, and was angry when we went in to take care of the items he said were unfinished, even though we were still paying rent on the unit. He claimed that we were too late to finish the repairs he required, and that he had made arrangements for having the repairs done himself. We were still paying rent during this period. People using his services should beware of his shady practices.
