MUNCIE, Ind. — Indiana’s attorney general has made a deal with a Muncie real estate company to clean-up it’s act.
Middletown Property Management and Middletown Property Group are accused of using an unregistered trade name, BSU Rentals, to violate tenant’s rights, according to a press release from the office of Attorney General Todd Rokita.
BSU Rentals is accused of invading tenant’s privacy, using deceptive ‘redecoration’ fees, failure to provide clean, safe units, and using a name that could be confused with Ball State University.
“Week after week, we devote significant time and energy to protecting Hoosiers who rent their homes,” said Rokita in Monday’s press release. “People living in apartments and other rental properties deserve fair treatment and peace of mind. That’s why we work so hard to hold landlords accountable for following the law.”
Middletown has agreed to refund tenant’s 35-thousand-dollars and to cut out their unfair practices, says Rokita.
