I am acquainted with several residents at King Arthur's Court and was taken aback by the recent conduct of the manager, Teresa Zivarts. She attempted to tow my vehicle, which I prevented by paying the required fee, much to her dismay. Ms. Zivarts confronted me about my previous review (as seen below)+!and became upset when I explained that my observations were truthful, particularly given her actions that day. She questioned how I managed to pay the tow operator, seemingly surprised by my ability to do so. Furthermore, she made unfounded accusations about my character and threatened me, stating she did not want to see me at the property again'"or else". When I attempted to leave, she insisted on further interaction, during which she disclosed personal connections to my ex-wife and continued to make baseless accusations, and apparently trespassed me for what i can only guess is parking in the wrong spot,, the ability to not be towed by paying on the spot or retaliation for my personal business with my xwife, or the list goes on but all of them don't equal anything but revenge. Her behavior has been unprofessional, and I plan to assert my rights to address her misuse of authority and the harassment of tenants, which disrupts the peaceful enjoyment of their homes. The potential legal violations already documented are to come and today include the following
First Amendment: The actions could be seen as an attempt to suppress the freedom of speech by retaliating for the review.
Fourteenth Amendment: her actions were discriminatory, and violate the Equal Protection Clause.
RCW 59.18 (Residential Landlord-Tenant Act of Washington): Her actions violate the tenant's right to quiet enjoyment of their premises.
RCW 59.18.240: Retaliation against a tenant for a lawful action, such as a complaint, is prohibited.
RCW 59.18.130: Outlines the duties of the landlord, which include maintaining a harassment-free environment.
If the threat was credible, it could be considered harassment or intimidation, which is a criminal offense The manager's actions could constitute intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Complaint to Housing Authority: A complaint will be filed with the housing authority or and tenants' rights organization will be notified
Original review:
management at King Arthur’s Court, specifically individuals referred to as Teresa, has exhibited behavior that raises concerns related to potential discriminatory practices. Instances of profiling residents, imposing unwarranted scrutiny on visitors, disclosing financial information of other residents, and fostering confusion among residents of different units have been observed. Additionally, claims of eviction threats and alleged preferences regarding certain residents have surfaced. Recently, an attempt was made to enforce stringent parking regulations, including the towing of vehicles lacking a visible parking permit pass for any vehicle on the property, and also as retaliation for tenants exercising their rights. This is including an 80 yr old senior citizen. The neighborhood isn’t the safest so some park inside with kids to avoid the open air drug use and possible violence which is smart of those parents.
It should be noted that the absence of a dedicated manager for several months has contributed to the existing issues. The communication and demeanor of this new management during interactions have raised questions about their state of mind, with their anger often rendering their communication nearly incoherent. These circumstances create an environment that may be considered unsafe.
Furthermore, the environment on this property may not be conducive to the well-being of minority residents if the current management persists. Unfortunately, avenues for addressing these concerns with upper management are not readily accessible, as contact information is either concealed or absent from the Epic Asset Management website. Avoid the drama. Not worth the stress that this woman is causing.
