I would have called the police. That’s home invasion.
Landlords/management companies require giving 24hr notice if they need to enter the property. (I know you know this, I’m just in mild shock from this).
That’s also sketchy as hell. They should at a minimum knock on your door to say “hey owner hired us to do X, we will be on your balcony”. To not even do that… I don’t know man. That really does feel burglar-ish.
The folks coming over my balcony, while disturbing in a general sense of that being a ninja move, are fine, except in they don’t seem to be advocating for tenant’s rights against their supervisor’s instructions. A couple of weeks ago we had someone like a supervisor agree with me they wouldn’t be working on my balcony until we’d been given notice, and they told the folks working that day.
But since then they have been coming up to my balcony and drilling in the holes and knocking stuff over. And Jon M. Shahoian, CPM Lic: 00836171 at Lapham Management Company hasn’t done anything, including emailing me after the phone call as e promised. I actually have to copy info@laphamcompany.com as an email accountability partner, or I won’t get a response. It is very frustrating to interact with these folks.
