C) A letter is not required to accompany a quit-pay notice. Arendt just can't help himself though and he gives the game away by revealing the true motivation of Five Skies in one sentence:
"It appears that you are unhappy with the manner in which my client manages its trailer park."
Does that jibe with a Quit-Pay notice for rent that is NOT due and WAS PAID in accordance with §704.07(4) as described in the letter that accompanied the rent I paid in September? No.
It's one thing to represent a client; it's another to help them avoid consequences of their disregard for laws, codes, & common decency by lying for them.
Whatever it takes, right? Lie to DATCP, lie to the court, fudge the court documents and (bonus!) put a few more dollars in his scofflaw client's pocket.
Sloppy & deceitful is how it's done in Wisconsin's legal system.
9/16
9/24
9/26
9/28
Notice to vacate or pay full rent for Sept w/late fees (!) taped to the broken door (since 5/10).
Rent was due 9/15 not 9/1 just as August rent was due 8/15 not 8/1: August cancelled check & receipt (no late fees) here
Lease specifies late fees begin after 5th day.
A) IF rent had been due since 9/1:
Arendt's document pg 2 conflicts with lease as 9/6 to 9/28 = 23 days @ $5/day = $115 NOT $140.
Math is hard, but this was a simple task and performed in a sloppy & deceitful manner for someone with a J.D. claiming expertise in Residential Real Estate.B) Arendt references §704.17(1) in the notice. §704.17(1) is for "Month-to-month and week-to-week tenancies"Arendt wrote: "....lease of one year or less or month to month tenant"He should have referenced §704.17(2) ..." Tenancies under a lease for one year or less, and year-to-year tenancies"You'd think he could at least bother to reference the correct statute.
► The Kedrowskis chose to ignore Uniform Dwelling Code in re metal back stairs, replacement back stairs, front stairs & 'repaired' front stairs. Saratoga's Building Inspector may be incompetent.► Building permits for replacement stairs and plumbing from Town of Saratoga were not obtained.► Were all the pipes replaced? Did replaced pipes meet code? No inspection with no permit.
► Water: SPS 326.15 & SPS 326.25 per Jack Wortruba, Dept Safety & Professional Service.If this was the water at the place you moved into, would you find the photos & videos of the water "reasonably adequate"?► Five Skies chose to ignore WI Statutes:704.03(1)704.08704.44704.07704.07(4)704.45710.15(2m)Arendt is fine with all of that as the lies he lies & misrepresents in his response to DATCP & his email of 9/16 to Joey supporting the slumlord's actions & failures to act.Just get the old lady out and, for a bonus, pad the fraudulent claim with a chunk of extra money, right?But wait....there's still more!
