More Sleaze From ConRAT Prebys...?

So this Jekyll and Hyde character, David Rodger aka certappr-one day a Christian teddy bear who loves kids and then the next day a greasy myspace friend's whore-is, at the very least, an acquaintance of Conrad Prebys. My well-informed hunch (thanks, David) is that this sleazy slob who threatened my children and I is most likely Conrad Prebys's driver when he's not exaggerating his graphic, computer and appraisal skills? It's not hard to imagine "Lotion Boy" being the one who procures young little ladies to satisfy Conrad's fleshly desires. After all, Mr. Prebys apparently had an after mid-life crisis because he couldn't keep his pants zipped up and then left his ex-wife in a termite-infested house. What a guy...! In my dictionary that falls under the category of scumbag. So now, we have a owner/landlord who most likely defrauds his tenants, cheats on his wife, hires liars for property managers and employs sloppy, semi-literate thugs to threaten families and children. And this guy is lauded as an upstanding member of the San Diego community because he spreads around OUR RENT MONEY in order to lower his tax liabilities and grease the palms of San Diego's elite? The stench from this Conrad individual is nauseating.

Mr. Prebys, I've given you ample opportunity to right your wrong. In return, you have conveyed the idea that only two sorts of people exist in this world... Those like me who are accountable to you and those like you who are accountable to no one. You couldn't be more wrong. That functionally illiterate dirtbag you employed to ruffle my feathers only makes me more determined to get back what is mine. Now tenacious tenant wants his money back with INTEREST!

The PC Water Company...

So who owns the PC Water Company that you must pay every month for water use in these "luxury apartments" with "resort-like" living? Well, Progress Construction Company Inc. owns the PC Water Company. And who owns Progress Construction Company Incorporated? Well, none other than Conrad Prebys, owner of Bay Pointe apartments.

So why doesn't Conrad just include the water bill in the contracted rental amount? For instance, why not just charge tenacious tenant $1635.00 for rent plus water instead of $1605.00 plus a $30.00 water bill? Well, that's easy to answer. It's the money, silly.

If Conrad included the water bill with the rental amount then he could only collect a 10% late charge on the total amount due. With a separate water bill, he gets to charge a 33% late fee.

Example:

A rental amount plus an included water bill would only net a $163.50 late charge on a total rental amount of $1635.00 at the 10% late charge fee (a rent of $1605.00 plus a $30.00 water bill).

On the other hand, a 10% late charge on a $1605.00 rental amount plus a $10.00 late fee for a late water bill would net old Conrad $170.50.

As you can see, by requiring tenants to add another bill to their collection of bills, Conrad recognizes an opportunity to make more money off his tenants. He realizes that the additional effort it takes pay another bill will almost invariable lead to late water bills and the atrocious 33% late fee that goes along with it.

Conrad Prebys is a greedy, avaricious opportunist that has found every way possible to nickle and dime his tenants while continually providing less than what is required by our lease contracts.

To the "Marker Bandit..."

"Marker Bandit," please refrain from further destruction of the Bay Pointe properties. If you are indeed a frustrated tenant then there are far more constructive and effective means to confront the poor management and operation of Bay Pointe Apartments as such property does not need further destruction and dilapidation to gain the attention of the owner and management.

If you are just one of the many nefarious characters that openly roams the premises-vandalizing, thieving, trespassing and the like-then the tenacious tenant will have no qualms in reporting you to the appropriate people.

Who Holds the Mortgage On Bay Pointe...?

So who holds the mortgage on Bay Pointe properties...? Well, no one does. Bay Pointe apartments is held outright by Conrad Prebys. This has several interesting implications for "late fees" and paying your rent on the 1st of the month.

As it concerns "late fees," such fees are required by California law to reasonably reflect the "liquidated damages" suffered by the owner of a property. In short, if an owner must draw from another interest-bearing account in order to cover the mortgage due to unpaid or late rent then he/she can recoup that loss of interest through "late fee" charges. He can also recover administrative costs that are required to serve 3 day notices. But, what if an owner doesn't have a mortgage as is the case of Bay Pointe Apartments and Conrad Prebys? Well, he just collects $95.00 to $165.00 dollars minus administrative costs for "late fees" under the guise of collecting "liquidated damages." Of course, Conrad suffers no such "damage." In fact, he merely gets to GAIN less interest off YOUR RENT MONEY. Conrad Prebys must then pretend to be collecting $95.00 to $165.00 in 15-30 minutes worth of administrative costs. This is outrageous and almost certainly illegal. This Conrad is a greasy, avaricious slumlord that has nickle and dimed his tenants for a long, long time.

In addition, for those tenants that think that paying your rent on the 1st is the right and noble thing to do, just remember that all you are doing is allowing Conrad Prebys to GAIN ADDITIONAL INTEREST off your RENT MONEY. This is why tenacious tenant never paid his rent until after office hours on the 5th day. This way, Conrad Prebys didn't get to gain 30 days worth of interest off my rent money and instead only received about 22-23 days worth of compounded interest. Not only are you losing interest on your money, but you are fattening your landlord's pocket over and above the rent you've already paid. Of course, neither tenacious tenant nor any other tenant has received anything in return for such gains attributed to Conrad Prebys.

So quit paying your rent on the first and instead pay it at the last possible moment that is required by your lease contract. And secondly, let the management (1-858-273-5525) know that you want your "late fees" back minus the $5.00 to $10.00 dollars worth of administrative costs (typed out 3 day notice template, a couple of sheets of paper, a short walk to your apartment, a couple envelopes with stamps and a short walk to the mailbox out front) or there will be a small claims action for the collection of unreasonable and excessive "late fees."

Stay tuned because tenacious tenant will tell you exactly what you need to do to put Conrad Prebys right in small claims court in order to justify his greedy ways.

Are These Criminal Threats...?

So it seems that Conrad Prebys and the Bay Pointe Management are stooping to the level of criminal threats in a futile attempt to silence the tenacious tenant? Tenacious tenant will not be thwarted in his effort to get those monies that he believes were fraudulently taken by Conrad Prebys.

David "teddy bear" Rodger appears to be the "man" that flooded tenacious tenant's email account with over 600 emails including these two (here and here) that demand that I "[r]emive community blog" (sic) and "take down baypoint community blog or suffer the consequences" (my emphasis)? I am at this point consulting with certain individuals to see whether I should report such threats to the FBI?

David "Lotion Boy" Rodger, it seems, was a real estate/vehicle appraiser for John Blair Appraisals out of Chula Vista before he became a "graphic designer" and "computer administrator." It would be quite interesting if Conrad Prebys has, at sometime in the past, procured Mr. Blair's services and hence had or has a personal relationship with David "Burning Desire" Rodger.

Davey Boy, what "consequences" did you have in mind?
