THE SCURRILOUS OWNERS OF HARPERS FOREST APARTMENTS ARE FAILURES AS BUSINESSMEN - BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY THEY'RE FAILURES AS HUMAN BEINGS!

I THINK IT'S HIGH TIME WE MAKE ROOM IN OUR PRISONS FOR CRIMINALS, LIKE DEMOCRATIC PARTY FUNDRAISER AND SLUMLORD OWNER OF HARPERS FOREST APARTMENTS PHILIP E. RATCLIFFE, AS WELL AS HIS HOWARD COUNTY GOVERNMENT ENABLERS - KEN ULMAN, MARY KAY SIGATY, DOUGLAS GANSLER AND THE EQUALLY IMPOTENT HOWARD COUNTY HOUSING OFFICE!

UNFORTUNATELY FOR US, HOWARD COUNTY CITIZEN, THOSE WE DEPEND ON TO ENFORCE THE LAW ARE IN BED WITH THOSE WHO ARE BREAKING THE LAW! OUR ONLY LEGAL RECOURSE, FOR HAVING A LEGITIMATE COUNTY GOVERNMENT IN THE SHORT TERM, IS A RECALL OR IMPEACHMENT OF OUR DISGRACEFUL ELECTED OFFICIALS OR A RESOUNDING ELECTORAL DEFEAT ON ELECTION DAY.

AS FAR AS COLUMBIA'S PREMIER GHETTO COMPLEX, HARPERS FOREST APARTMENTS, THEY'RE ABOUT TO BITE THE DUST ANYWAY - THANKS TO THE ABUSED TENANTS, LIKE YOU AND ME, WHO INSIST ON TELLING THE WORLD ABOUT THE MOST INEPT AND INCOMPETENT PROPERTY MANAGEMENT EVER TO SET FOOT IN HOWARD COUNTY MARYLAND.

HATS OFF TO YOU - ABUSED AND ANGRY TENANTS!

HARPERS FOREST APTS MAY BE WELL ON THEIR WAY .........

TO THE GARBAGE HEAP OF THE WORST HOWARD COUNTY SLUMS OF ALL TIME.....

- AND STILL THEY'RE
DRAGGING THEIR TENANTS THROUGH THE SLIME AND THE MUD!

ANOTHER TENANT SPEAKS OUT -

HAH, DON'T MOVE HERE!! THIS IS THE WORST PLACE EVER!!

Years at this apartment: 2008 - 2009 i lived there for 1 year. i never fully unpacked my stuff cause from the first day i moved in i was ready to leave! i was pregnant when i moved in and it was bad. you call maintenance and they take 4 ever to come!! the leasing office is horrible! they will lie to you in your face and wont fix a problem till you threaten to take them to court.

I'M SURE YOU AGREE RENTERS, THAT WITH APARTMENTS LIKE THIS, EVEN BANKRUPTCY IS TOO GOOD FOR THESE SLUMLORDS! WEALTHY DEMOCRATIC PARTY FUNDRAISER AND OWNER OF HARPERS FOREST, PHILIP E. RATCLIFFE, HAS BEEN GRANTED IMMUNITY FROM INVESTIGATION AND PROSECUTION BY HIS HOWARD COUNTY ENABLERS,
COUNTY EXECUTIVE KEN ULMAN, MARYLAND STATES ATTORNEY DOUGLAS GANSLER AND COUNTY COUNCILMAN MARY KAY SIGATY. BUT IT IS WE, THE ABUSED TENANTS, WHO ARE BRINGING THE LAWS OF A FREE MARKET PLACE TO BEAR ON THIS DREADFULLY MISMANAGED HARPERS FOREST APARTMENTS. IT IS WE THE TENANTS WHO HAVE PAID THE HIGHEST PRICE FOR THE BACKROOM WHEELING AND DEALING BETWEEN OUR HOWARD COUNTY OFFICIALS AND THESE GHETTO MERCHANTS AND IT IS WE THE TENANTS WHO ARE ABANDONING HARPERS FOREST IN DROVES AND WE ARE ENCOURAGING OUR NEIGHBORS TO DO SO AS WELL. NOBODY WANTS TO LIVE AT HARPERS FOREST APARTMENTS AND IT IS YOU, THE CURRENT AND FORMER TENANTS, WHO HAVE SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT THIS DEPLORABLE HARPERS FOREST MANAGEMENT AND IT IS YOU WHO ARE HOLDING THIS ILLEGITIMATE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR BUSINESS PRACTICES, EVEN THOUGH OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS HAVE REFUSED TO DO SO. THIS HOWARD COUNTY GOVERNMENT HAS TURNED THEIR BACKS ON THE LARGELY LOWER INCOME AND DISABLED COMMUNITY THAT RENTS AT HARPERS FOREST AND THEY'VE STOOD SIDE BY SIDE WITH THE SLUMLORDS, WHO ALSO HAPPEN TO BE THEIR CAMPAIGN SUPPORTERS, EVERY STEP OF THE WAY! BUT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE MORE TO SAY ABOUT THAT ON ELECTION DAY! RIGHT TENANTS?

HOWARD COUNTY APARTMENT SHOPPERS TAKE NOTE - ALL OF THESE VOICES FROM ABUSED AND ANGRY TENANTS, THE DAMNING PHOTOGRAPHS, THE FAILED INSPECTION REPORTS OF DREADFUL MAINTENANCE CONDITIONS, HORROR STORIES ABOUT THE MOST INEPT MANAGEMENT TEAM EVER, DOCUMENTED ON THIS SITE AND OTHERS, MIGHT VERY WELL BE PICTURES OF YOUR HOME AND STORIES OF YOUR HORROR'S IF YOU SIGN A LEASE AT HARPERS FOREST APARTMENTS. TAKE IT FROM THOSE WHO KNOW. TAKE IT FROM THESE CURRENT AND FORMER RENTERS WHO HAVE HAD TO LIVE IN THESE CONDITIONS - DO NOT RENT FROM HARPERS FOREST APARTMENTS! IT COULD BE THE WORST HOUSING DECISION YOU'VE EVER MADE YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. DON'T SPEND YOUR HARD EARNED DOLLARS HERE. THERE ARE OTHER PROFESSIONALLY MANAGED AND SUPERIOR APARTMENT COMMUNITIES LESS THAN A MILE AWAY. FOREWARNED IS FOREARMED!
