[Nfbc-info] ADA question

[Lauren Merryfield]

Hi,
Thank you so very much!  Once I get moved and have rested some, I am going 
to file complaints!

Can I do anything about my current apt complex refusing to tell me why they 
are terminating my lease?  I smell a rat there, too.
Thanks
Lauren

The most basic of all human needs is the need to understand and be
understood. The best way to understand people is to listen to them.
