"Get ready to
be robbed. This building is just about falling
over and the water is shut off every 10 just
about. The previous was a crook
and no one knows what the new owner will do. The city need to fine the owners
for shutting off the water and the manager spent time in the slam
but now is "saved" all the while hiding the pipe dilemma. Do everything you can
to avoid this particular building. It's a disaster already happening."

"Fulton Villas @ 6125 Fulton Avenue, Valley Glen, CA 91401. In the great USA -
land of the slum lords. Managed by Franklin Management Properties - a company
run by a punk . The experience at Fulton Villas is foul. It's no wonder
they've taken to advertising on Craigslist for potential tenants. First month
free with $400 down. And this is not just a sign of the economic times. Listen
to all the wonders the building is inclusive of:
Not only does it seem every year that the building gets a hand full of drug
dealers, but the current manager, makes excuses for them and tries to
reason and "rehab" their ways. He will not serve lease violators notices for
fear tenants will go after him or his car. In the meantime, bad tenants go
unpunished and management is forever coming into tenant apartments and violating
their privacy. Water is shut off many times per month. Code Enforcement is
coming here week after week in attempt to site them for all the work done by
unlicensed repair men on pipes that require city permits to be fixed. Faulty
pipes and hundreds of repairs not included on title to keep tenants from having
rent reduced by Los Angeles Housing Department. Seeing jack hammers rip through
concrete and first floor apartments is not an uncommon sight here. Tenants are
being charged for water and the building's not even submetered, which means one
tenant could run their facets for 10 days straight and all the neighbors and
other tenants will be picking up the tab. Vermin wandering around parking lot
and dumpsters at night. Manager has a homeless family that stays at the
building regularly, though not for 14 days consecutively. It's thoughtful, but
explains all the other vagrants who come and go like the johns from a prostitute
who has in-calls in her own apartment. Many amenities are non-working or broken
altogether. Tenants caught having sex on couches in the rec room. Tenants
punching each other in the courtyard, creating a potential hefty lawsuit against
the owner for the victim(s) who got/get punched. Many witnesses to these
beatings. Other tenants dealing drugs on the property. Some have even
vandalized other tenants' properties. And don't be fooled by the recent paint
job to make it look "pretty". In fact, that's the first reason to walk away ...
all the other buildings on the block look half-run down but not Fulton Villas.
It tries to appear sparkling and gleaming not because of civic pride, but
because the wat
But there are a couple of seemingly redeeming qualities ... the grass looks good
from a distance (unless you get up close and see the dog poop from neighboring
buildings' dogs) and the bushes and flowers are decent, which is more than it
can boast than the other ugly buildings in the neighborhood. As mentioned
earlier, that should be a red flag to potential tenants - which one is not like
the other - simply means lots and lots and lots of hidden problem. Keep moving
south to the Boulevard, folks. You wouldn't want your most hated 5th grade
enemy living here. Read the views and do your homework before renting on any
property.."
