| Ashton told me that i was definitely approved for the place the day I looked at the apartment. I tight that was weird seeing as I hasn't even filed out an application. And it was a very big apartment complex. I mean huge. He gave me his web address and yid me to fill put the application just for the record. And part the $ 35 for the credit check fee. I got excited and went home and paid right away and emailed my app. The next morning he called and said everything is great and that all I need for a deposit was $ 500 but since it was over paypal they're was a % 10 fee. After doing this and telling every one of my friends about my new place problems started to happen. A couple days later he called and said that I didn't make enough money to get the apartment and that my credit want good enough. First thing I have two jobs and no bills. Just a car payment. Second he hadn't even asked for proof of income. So how would he knew that I didn't make enough?? the apartment was a small studio and was definitely in my budget. My apartment currently was twice as much and I got that with no problems. I told him I could send over whatever info he needed and was sure I could with it out. Well that was not his plan. He'd rather keep my $$ 550 and not answer my calls. I tried carling the number on his website but no one ever picks up. I'm sure it's just him. I also contacted the apartment building and they said there was nothing they ould do because he doesn't work for them!! What a joke. An attorney will cost me more than what I would get back so there's nothing I can do. I'm sure he does this to many people. I am a young girl and maybe I lol sod. Up don't know. But he is a thief. I'm glad that there are others that are coming out about this to. Hopefully we can warn and help others do they don't lose money |

I had a bad feeling about this guy and decided not to do business with him after seeing these reports. Complain against his license with the department of real estate: http://www.dre.ca.gov. He can lose his ability to do business in real estate.
I looked him up, his legal name is Ashkan Derakhshan DRE# 01828547 with Braum Real Estate in 14537 Ventura Blvd., Sherman Oaks, CA he is in the business of taking would-be renter's application fees and deposits without running credit checks and I wouldn't give him my social or information, he may sell or use your identity for fraud. This is exactly why we have real estate laws, people. Do not be remiss on reporting him to protect others from this unscrupulous character. |
