I do not recommend this company due the lack of integrity of the owner. AMHERST HOLDINGS LLC is an LLC operated by David Osborne. The property in question is Address: 1433 SW LINCOLN St.
The Osborne Company is doing a complete renovation n behalf of Amherst Holdings LLC that is leased and managed by Balanced properties. Upon entering in to a lease the Tenant was never informed about the renovation. The Tenant would have NEVER signed the lease.
AS time marched on we approached David to tear up the lease. David refused to sit down a talk and hid behind Balanced properties so he wouldn't have to face real time issues first hand. and I was asked to leave the property and they called the police.
NO stars ( I have to give one to post)

“Quiet enjoyment”
I’m writing you on behalf David VanNevele occupant in one of your units at 1433 SW Lincoln street. David is an employee of mine at the Pizza Pub across the alley. I helped David get situated and I feel I did not do him any favors.
This has been a bad deal for David and his family. Being exposed to a naked lady roaming the halls to marijuana permeating the hallways, is no way to raise a preschooler. From never finishing the unit before moving, into every time you demo another unit the bugs finding safety in Dave’s unit.

“Misrepresentation”
Your management company never explained the fact that you were going to gut each unit and have the building in turmoil. On top of that David gets to pay a premium rent as if the project was complete. (As you mention on the phone in defense of MaryBeth – you never informed her about the project).
Today we want you to tear up the lease so David and his family can move. With your experience in construction you know as well as me this building should be vacant so you can turn over a finished product. There is NO quiet enjoyment.
Please review the video and this letter.
David, we never would have paid such high rent based upon the renovation being in process. Thanks for taking my phone call today. Please help us out.
Let David out of the lease and return the security deposit so his family can relocate ASAP.
Henry McClure
