124) VERIFIED COMPLAINT FOR POSSESSION OF REAL PROPERTY filed Aug 28, 2019 at 11:58 AM, concerning the gym owner and wife’s housing residential situation. Summons to appear in court Sept 30, 2019. 125) On Sunday Sept 1, 2019 around 10:35 AM, the BBL processor came by to put up a One Family Basic Business License in the hallway for the first time since we have been living here since 2009. We told him that there was no stove and at that time no inspection had ever taken place. The reason we said this to him, this was the first time we had seen his face and he was the one who had signed his name on the RAD Registration/Claim of Exemption Form that our rental was in substantial compliance, even though that was false. He nor anyone else inspected our rental unit. He didn’t come clean. Note: Our One Family Rental License was getting ready to expire. He also put up the gym’s Certificate of Occupancy in our hallway foyer. There was not a Basic Business license for the gym or a Certificate of Occupancy displayed on the gym’s side. We brought it to his attention that M_ _ A___ LLC’s name should have been on the One Family Rental License not C. Property Management. He bypassed that by responding that L. Management had bought out C. Property Management. Someone else not associated with L. Management told us a very different story. On the One Family Rental License it showed Date Issued: Aug 21, 2015 – License # – License Period: Oct 1, 2017 – Sept 30, 2019 – Billing Name and Address: C. Property Management ** Connecticut Ave NW #*, Wash; DC 20008 – Premise/Application’s Name and Address: 4013 Gault Place Partners, LLC 3408 18TH ST NE, Wash; DC 20018. Registered Agent ‘s Name and Address: Not Listed – Note: C. Property Management is no longer in business! 126) RE: 3408 18th St NE #A – Inspection Scheduled for 9/11/19 – My client has advised me that they are not prepared for tomorrow’s scheduled inspection because the leaky faucet has not been repaired. At this time I do not have a definitive answer as to when it will be completed. However, we wanted to bring this to your attention ASAP so that you can cancel the inspection, if that’s what you wish to do – 9/10/2019 at 2:28 PM. 127) We called a specific Menkiti Group representative who picked up the phone and called out the gym owner’s name, when Robert verbally identified himself, the representative hung up the phone – Sept 10, 2019 around 11:37 AM. It appeared to us it was intentional. We called right back, he would not pick up the phone. This is the same former Menkiti Group representative who came for an inspection (not a thorough inspection) of our rental unit with the previous Service Manager with L. Management back on March 15, 2019. They said later we didn’t give them access. As a matter of fact, the Menkiti Group representative said on that day that he had joined the Menkiti Group in Jan of 2019. They both handed their cards. One of the cards had the Menkiti Group (name) and logo on it. 128) AFFIDAVIT OF SERVICE concerning the gym owner and wife’s residential situation – First attempt: Sept 12, 2019 at 7:13 PM, Second attempt: Sept 13, 2019 at 8:16 AM.

129) The vendor comes to the property with a ladder without the proper 48 hours notice that is suppose to be given. He puts it up on the building and climbs up on the ladder to check for water leaks coming from the roof in front of our bathroom window – Sept 19, 2019 around 8:25 AM. Note: There was no notice given at all and no emergency Note: The same vendor who left us a note on Oct 28, 2019 (setup). 130) Email from L. Management – (vendor) will be by tomorrow, Monday, September 30th before Noon to measure the bathroom window. Because the window is still difficult to open, we will need to replace this – Sunday, Sept 29, 2019 at 2:20 PM. Note: Emailed on a Sunday to come on Monday is not 48 hours proper notice, we were suspicious and skeptical. We had a status hearing on October 1, 2019, their attorney stated (partial statement) My clients I don’t know if they repaired or replaced the bathroom window, but it is apparently not opening easily enough, so they have ordered a new window that is a custom item and is going to require two weeks. This window issue was in the Aug 12, 2019, inspection report. This is the same vendor/contractor who came on April 15, 2019 and Aug 27, 2019. It appeared to us that they were trying to make excuses to come in our rental to see what we had such as cameras, documents etc. They were buying time to prolong it for a certain amount of time before they wanted to end the court procedures to get us out of court for good to apply their next tactic. The property was still listed as Vacant per DCRA. We observed them gazing at different items in our rental unit on multiple visits. 131) The Non-Redeemable Default concerning the gym owner and wife’s housing situation – Sept 30, 2019. 132) On Oct 4, 2019 at 10:00 AM, Robert enlisted a LCE housing code & repairs attorney in an attempt to speed it up. Note: The attorney never went to court with us although we asked several times, to no avail. One of the reasons given, she had to get permission from her supervisor. There were other people in court that had attorneys on their behalf for their housing condition’s case. We went four more times (Pro Se) with her being on the sideline. It was limited to calls, sending and receiving emails, writing a few letters and few meetings that’s it. The LCE attorney sends the registered agent (CEO of the Menkiti Group/Aroli Group) – Re: Illegal Rent Increase bringing up the fact the rent was increased at the time it was not in substantial compliance with the housing regulations in June 2019. Therefore, you should not have been collecting the higher rent for the past five months. Also, not mentioned in this letter is proper procedures was not taken at the time of the supposedly RAD registration of the 3408 18th St NE property with DHCD.
