Why this exists

A place to collect resident reports

I was charged a $50 trash violation fee at Oliv Tempe. After reviewing my lease and disputing the charge, the fee was removed/refunded. I could not find a clear lease clause authorizing this specific fine amount, and I did not receive the warnings or portal notices management says are required.

I believe this is unfair, that's why I am bringing attention to all residents and guide them to get refund and stop those charges.

    In your contract

    Section 4.7 refers to governmental fees or taxes imposed upon the landlord, not internal penalties created by management.

    Section 4.7 ("Additional Rent") requires at least 30 days' advance written notice and disclosure of "the amount or approximate amount of the charge" before any new fee can be added. The August 25 email announced fines effective September 1 - only seven days later - and did not specify any dollar amount. Therefore, this notice does not satisfy Section 4.7 or A.R.S. § 33-1314(C).

    Section 12 ("Community Policies or Rules") allows reasonable policy changes only if distributed to all residents with 30 days' notice and provided that such changes "do not change dollar amounts on page 1 of the Lease Contract." Since no written addendum or 30-day policy update identifying a $50 trash fine was issued, the charge remains unsupported.

    I also have not been provided access to any community guidelines that clearly authorize this charge. In addition, I did not receive any warning, and I did not see any notice in the resident portal before the charge was applied.

    For future residents

    Before You Sign a Lease at Oliv Tempe

    Before signing at Oliv Tempe student housing near 704 S Myrtle Ave, consider asking management about Tempe student housing fees, student apartment fees in Tempe, ASU student housing, ASU offsite housing, ASU apartments, ASU Oliv Tempe lease terms, and ASU apartment review questions focused on resident charges.

    Before signing, consider asking management:

    • Are trash violation fees or resident fines charged at this property?
    • What is the exact dollar amount of any trash violation fee?
    • Where is that fee stated in the lease or signed addendum?
    • Are community guidelines part of the lease packet?
    • How are warnings delivered before a fee is charged?
    • Are warnings posted in the resident portal, emailed, or mailed?
    • Can residents dispute a fee before it is added to the payment balance?
    • Can rent be paid separately from disputed fees?

    This website does not tell anyone whether to sign or not sign a lease. It is an independent resident information project intended to encourage transparent lease disclosures and billing practices.
