I had read a previous Ripoff Scams on this landlord (Dardra Potter) yet foolishly took my chances trusting her – including several forewarnings from neighbors. She is a liar and a shady manipulator. She owes me $500 deposit for renting one of her barely tolerable, yet livable mobile homes on Crowder Loop, Tallahassee. I move out the 1st of June 2015. This mobile home did not have heat because the connection line was broken off from the outside LP tank – although the central A.C. did work. The telephone line was also disconnected, so I managed to “rig it”” from the outside maintenance box to the inside. The water heater also leaked which caused my electric bill to skyrocket in my 1st month of living there. I stayed there throughout the 6 month lease and cleaned up the place far better than when I received it

after I left. I was assured (by her) that she would send me my $500 deposit back after her “”walk through”” in early June 2015. She later claimed that she had the $500 check sitting on her desk waiting to be mailed after she returned from her vacation in July – which never happened. I’d contacted her several more times about returning the deposit

and then she would “”teasingly”” promise to send the $500 (as she was expecting a gratified response). Dardra posts her rental properties on Craigslist – so beware. She has several properties in different locales

but her specialty is to rent to unsuspecting and naive Florida State University students across from the campus. When I’d first met her

there was another couple who were interested in renting from her – until she mentioned her name “”Dardra””. The husband said “”Oh! So you’re Dardra”” “”I’d heard about you””
