There are holes in the wall and ceiling, I'd not noticed when i first looked at the place, but noticed and noted on move in inspection- though the holes at the baseboard i noticed just days AFTER. I contacted manager on the Nov 6, but did not get back to me, until i again contacted them on the 15th, when she said someone would be contacting me "soon"...As of today's date Nov 23rd, I've gotten no reply

A: More information is needed to provide you with an accurate answer. What type of holes? Are they the result of insect/animal activity? Are the holes the result of water damage? Do the holes prevent you from doing something in your home? Does it threaten your safety/privacy?

We are glad to assist you. Contact us soon. I wish you well.
