The actual facts follow in re Mr Arendt's misrepresentation about cleaning, repairs, or improvements.
No "improvements" were requested.
No "cleaning" was requested. I did all the necessary cleaning.

The entire first half of this paragraph is totally false.
Arendt wrote: ".....regularly refused access....." = A blatant lie
Never requested that an appointment be scheduled for a different date or time. Never happened, Arendt.
Never did anyone from anywhere request an appointment for an "inspection." Never happened, Arendt.
Never were they 5 minutes late & refused access. Never happened, Arendt.
4 appointments (total) were ACCEPTED AFTER REQUEST FROM FIVE SKIES
1) 5/21: screen fabric tacked over the filthy torn screens (no interior access necessary or requested)
2) mid-June: Joey & Delbert were 20-25 minutes late because Joey said he had overslept. They proceeded to stick on the
3) July 16: They were a few minutes late. Nick had written on 7/03, "Our primary concern is the water quality at your unitand that will take priority for us, if that can't be corrected the other issues are moot." Violates §704.07 and§704.07(4)As a result of Nick's written statement, I assumed that Joey & Delbert were there to deal with the water.turned & walked away.Neither had brought the 5/10 or 6/30 pdfs or the list of 5/20. As they also had not brought tools with them, Iloaned Delbert a screwdriver. Joey fetched a drill & used it to open the west living room window; after that"fix" the window could not be closed. Joey replaced a pin in a door hinge & asked his Uncle Delbert to checkhis work.I thought okay - who am I dealing with here? A 20 yr old boy & his uncle, the vehicle mechanic:
• they don’t have a clue or
• they know exactly what the problem is & don't want to tell me or
• they don’t intend to fix it (Nick’s 7/01 email): will terminate my lease 63 days after I moved in because they "would
not continue to rent the unit until that issue is remedied..."
4) Sept 20: they were a no show, no cancel, no request to reschedule
Access was refused 2 times: both
times past deadline to complete
not start
repairs: (emails on right)
9/13 less than 24 hr notice (Nick had guaranteed 24 hr notice) & past deadline for completion of repairs - TO SEEIF THAT HELPS....HELPS?
9/16 past deadline - A TEMPORARY SOLUTION?? 704.07(4) "unless the landlord proceeds promptly to repair orrebuild or eliminate"

"...felt were in need of repair."
Ah, women are so emotional, right Arendt? My feelings had nothing to do with any of the necessary repairs as I described & provided page
after page of photos to document the situations re door, windows, and water in my email of 5/10:
Windows: 5/10 excerpt: "The window situation with bent frames, holes in screens, missing screens, dead bugs, dirty, and non-functional
status…..the pictures speak." 9 pages of window & screen photos
provided 5/10.
Door: 5/10 excerpt:
"The back door lock jams/sticks and the metal frame on the bottom of the door fell off after it caught the edge of
the torn linoleum leaving a gap between door and floor." Photo provided on 5/10.
5/11:
Nick said the door had to
be replaced. The door continued to deteriorate over time. Broken door
tears linoleum which is destroying flooring
of unit. See Door & Windows on this site. 6/30 email: swollen wrist
from trying to open the door.
Water: 5/10 excerpt:
"I’m also quite concerned re the water as it continues to be orange rather than the usual clear as seen in the
picture of the toilet bowl. It is particularly disconcerting that the orange water morphs into particles that land
on the bottom of the glass. An explanation and rectification of this situation is necessary."

"....continuing refusal..."
after the 9/20
appointment according to Arendt.
It is literally impossible to refuse an appointment that is not requested. I heard nothing from any Five Skies representative after the email on
9/20 except for the bizarre email from Joey at 4:20pm on 10/04
and gmail time stamped at 11:40am on 9/20 indicating that he would
reschedule; he didn't. There was no email, text, call or in-person request to reschedule after 9/20 or after 10/04 or ever.
Arendt wrote: ".....arbitrary deadlines...."
Deadlines? Plural, Arendt? Show me one other than the deadline provided in my letter of 9/03. Can't find one? That's because there isn't one.
That letter provided a deadline to complete the structural repairs that they were notified of eleven times: 5/10, 5/19, 5/20, 5/31, 6/17, 6/30, 8/5,
& 9/03 & also saw in person mid-June & 7/16, and 9/11.
Arbitrary = 4½ months after I moved in? Well, it may be "arbitrary" but seems abundantly patient and beyond reasonable to me & everyone
else who knows about this situation.
§704.07(4) also disagrees with Arendt- the self proclaimed expert in residential real estate: "....unless the landlord proceeds promptly to repair
or rebuild or eliminate the health hazard or the substantial violation of sub. (2) materially affecting the health or safety of the tenant.
Note: "promptly"
Promptly is not 4½ months after notification. Arendt sure is willing & able to assist the Kedrowskis in their fraudulent rental of the unit
and failure to perform essential repairs in accordance with Wisconsin's laws.
Arendt wrote: "....arbitrary rescheduling
requests....."
=
lie
Got documentation for that, Arendt?No, because there isn't any.
I never requested a specific appointment or requested a change of appointment.The 7/16 appointment conflicted with my appointment to see a unit in a nearby town, but I kept the appointment on the date & timethey had requested.I was still texting plumber re finishing job & orange water on 6/17.Nick wrote that plumber would not be returning to the property on 7/01.The job isn't finished & the plumber isn't coming back to do so.Suck it up, tenant! That's how it works in Wisconsin! Wait, what?? is that how it's supposed to work in Wisconsin?
Arendt wrote.....complained that the "owners were artificially delaying any repair" - imagine that, yet another lie from Arendt.
WHO delays repairs, Arendt? 7/17 - 9/10 - No requests for appointments, no requests for any damn thing from Five Skies. 56 days.
Five Skies showed no interest in doing the repairs despite all the promises, 'on schedule', 'forwarded to Delbert' emails
that I received from Nick.
He wrote that he forwarded the pdf of 5/10
to Delbert.
He wrote that he shared the info of 6/30
with Joey.
On 8/5, in the mail slot on the maintenance shed on the property, I followed the recommendation of the Tenant Resource Center/Madison & submitted a written request for the date of completion of repairs. My 9/03 letter
confirms that they did not respond to that request.
I happened to see Joey on property:
8/22 or 23rd:
he said “hopefully” the stairs would be replaced Labor Day weekend & that he had “looked at” a couple of doors to replacethe broken back door. On 5/11, Nick stood in the kitchen & said the door had to be replaced. On 5/26, Joey was looking at doors, 8/22 or 8/23, Joey was looking at doors, 9/11 Joey was looking at doors. Joey really likes to look at doors - not so keen on actually replacing them.
9/11:
he said they were looking at doors, had money problem, & declined the mug of water I offered him.------------------------------------------->

In my letter of 9/03, I called out Nick’s lie of 7/1 re my availability. If they had wanted to speak with me, they could have just as Joey did on 8/22 or 23 & on 9/11.
>>>>>
And I would have taken notes about the conversation immediately upon their departure just as I did on 8/22 or 23 & 9/11.
I restricted my communication with Five Skies to email after 6/30/16.

I'm new to Wisconsin. Is this how things are done here?
Scofflaw landlord hires a scofflaw attorney to lie his bloomin' head off to a government agency & that's okay because he's an officer of the court.
A dishonest landlord who omits critical information to get the unit rented asap & then can't be bothered to perform repairs in accordance with the Uniform Dwelling Code, Dept of Safety & Professional Services (DSPS), or comply with Wisc Chap 704. They'll just get rid of the old lady who dared to think that she was moving 200 miles to expand her business but loses her licenseas they'd rather save a few bucks by not bothering with
► obtaining building permits for stairs resulting in injury or plumbing
►completing necessary repairs to door and windows
► hiring a plumber off the books who can't be bothered to show up for appointments or to finish the job (in part because he was in jail for felony stalking)while leaving the tenant with no laundry connection, no outdoor tap, rust water well over EPA standard;and sewage on my lawn for 18 days (47 days to correct almost to Wood County & DSPS code)
Based on his email to the DATCP:
Arendt is knowledgeable about everything pre-Day 1 of my tenancy and all days to the last. However, neither he nor Nick & Joey knew that I had already constructively evicted myself.
Credit where credit is due: Arendt does work very hard to cover landlord's buttocks with lies, hogwash, & deception while trying to pad a fraudulent claim with a few extra dollars.
Is this how things are
supposed
to be done in Wisconsin by an Officer of the Court?
