Nordica Condominiums 2525 SW 3 ave Miami, FL 33129

ok guys I need your help here..

This past Tuesday I woke up to this:



Needless to say I went into a frenzy. These were $7000 wheels/tires.


This is a picture of the car of another victim. They stole her airbag 2 nights before.



Nordica Condominiums 2525 SW 3 ave Miami, FL 33129

This is a supposedly secured building but I just found out another 3
cars were burglarized this same week and there have been numerous incidents of car thefts, burglaries, break-ins, bike thefts, etc in the last 3 years.

Of course, management doesn't tell you anything when you are considering to rent or buy.

The truth is THERE ARE NO SECURITY CAMERAS IN THE GARAGE, ANYWHERE, except by the entrance gate and that one is so outdated and badly positioned that you can't make out a car tag or a face. And no security guy making rounds in the garage. Just a concierge sitting at the lobby looking at the few, useless cameras there are ( none in the garage nor corridors )

Obviously I get together with all the other victims and demand our damages to be paid by the HOA/management. Their answer was basically: well, call your insurance. We are not liable.

That's when I decided EVERYBODY in the building should know about what happened.

I started posting flyers door by door explaining what happened and citing them to a meeting. Half the building came and everybody was very supportive. Nobody knew the building was going through this kind of management, or lack there of.

The next day I get a call from the developer/owner of most units in the building: a Peter Torres.

He proceeds to tell me I should sue the security company instead ( the one they hired and keep employing ) and that he would not install new cameras or hire new security guards. They couldn't afford it he said. A security guard is $128,000 / year investment.

He then in a very mocking tone told me I should probably move to a place where rent is $20,000+ per month since I drove a Maserati. That way I could have better security and an armed guard by my car.

Needless to say things went bad from here.

The next day me and the other victim ( the third victim rents from an owner ) were served with a Non Renewal letter. Basically Mr. Peter Torres now wants us out of the building. This proves retaliatory action and actually makes our case easier.

All 3 of us ( latest victims ) will be suing him, his companies and the building for damages plus I will be posting every single incident police report I find regarding Nordica Condominiums online for everybody to find.

I will make sure everybody that is considering buying or renting here goes to a different place. Nordica Condominiums don't care about the safety of its residents. It is that simple. If all the other Astor Companies condo buildings are run the way this one is DO NOT BUY OR RENT THERE.

Here is where I need your SEO efforts to rank this post as high as possible.

Brothers and sisters..anything to bump this up will be appreciated.

Ouch... a friend of mine bought the same car when he sold his company. Then 2 days later he mashed up a rim on a pothole, and found out how much they cost.

TylerDurden

Nice car man...sucks about the tires. I would think that management can't be held liable though. In any case good luck.

fvaldes

You are correct. Except there is a long history of this happening in the building and:

1- They kept it secret from new renters and buyers
2- Proves negligence on their part since there was probable cause that it would happen again, as it did...many times.

Dankface

Landlords are shady as general. Good luck. Sue them into oblivion. They can't do this to you.

dsiomtw

I dunno man. Unless you were promised specific security related things when you signed, this is generally something you take up with your insurance not a building owner or your landlord.

Dwight Schrute

This is horrendous news. I will send some links for you. I hope you get things squared away with the landlord... The prick.

Lance: They should be fucking killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution.
Vincent: Boy, I wish I could've caught him doing it. I'd have given anything to catch that asshole doing it. It'd been worth him doing it just so I could've caught him doing it.
Lance: What a fucker!
Vincent: What's more chicken shit than fucking with a man's automobile? I mean, don't fuck with another man's vehicle.
Lance: You don't do it.
Vincent: It's just against the rules.

Might have to give them some phone calls.

"hi Peter. I'm interested in buying a condo. Whats the security like there? I've done some research on the interwebz and apparently it sucks. I'll have to take my monies elsewhere.
Oh, by the way, for what it's worth, you can contact google hammer.com and they can remove the bad reviews for you. "

sweetbride man.

yeah these parking complexes with cctv are more of a liability more than anything, ur prolly safer parking on the streets. when theives know the cctv are duds and there are no security guards patrolling, they pretty much have a free reign to nick car parts. secluded dark location, hardly any people from the public and no cops to patrol.

btw lol'd at the airbag thief. hahaha

fvaldes

Peter Torres is the developer/owner of about half of the building.

They should have done something when things like these started happening. That's why it is a negligence case now.


Links and that phone call would be awesome lol.

Bottom line is they knew shit like this had been going on for ages and did nothing about it. And top of that they send Non Renewal letters to us, THE VICTIMS.

Sorry to hear it happened. I'm sure the others are thankful you stood up for yourself and them. You don't think posting all of this could negatively affect your lawsuit at all?

I'm not law expert or anything, but considering you're about to get into litigation with this guy, isn't this thread better saved for till after it's over?

Just thinking out loud here

Damn man! Move further east into Brickell! Brickell Key if possible. I'm almost 100% sure that what you're paying there will get you a comparable (or better) unit in a more stable building.

We had similar issues in my building (Neo Vertika - which has it's fair share of issues), and since then the HOA has installed multiple cameras on every floor, and started patrolling more often at night. The incidents have since then stopped as far as I know.

Anyway, PM if you need anything. I'm two miles down the road.

(O_o)

wow, sucks to see that happened to ya bro!

Maybe check out Ft. Lauderdale / Boca Raton area. A lot nicer !!

There are several apartment / condo review sites. Basically like Yelp for apartments. e.g. apartmentratings . com

Assuming your SEO stunt works at all, I don't think your Maseratti woes are going to deter people in the market for a $1100/month condo. The landlord has a point, it's not reasonable to park a $50,000 car in an unsecured garage next to a bunch of old Kia Rios and Chevy Malibus, it'll draw thieves like a floodlight draws moths and poses a risk to the other tenants' vehicles.

This does make sense. A $130,000 car (the actual price of a granturismo, not 50k lol) + $7,000 wheels but you're living in a sub-par condo, why? I'm not familiar with Florida but here in Houston 1.1k a month is pretty average if we're talking about a 1 bed, it's definitely not any luxury shit.

At the same time I agree with the OP in that if management was aware of multiple issues and tried to cover it up instead of fixing it, that's obviously not right. But like most suits, whoever is richer will probably win.

For what you're probably paying for rent there, you could live like a literal KING in Ohio*. In a middle to upper class neighborhood. Without shit like that happening. Huge houses here in nice neighborhoods are probably less in mortgage than your rent out in FLA.

To put it in perspective, I live in a nice neighborhood out in nowheresville, ohio and only pay mid $xxx/mo. That includes utilities, not even joking. Crime rate is low because people can afford to live and don't have to resort to crime to pay bills. Sounds dirt cheap to a lot of people, but that's how things are out here. Ya, it's a noname town and not much to do, but at least it's safe and you can leave your doors unlocked and car parked on the street w/o worrying about shit like that.

In any case, getting your rims/tires stolen sucks. It isn't cheap to replace, especially on cars like that. Low life pieces of shit that do that kind of thing are usually retards who get caught eventually anyway for bigger crimes.

Good luck with the lawsuit and SEO revenge.

* - not endorsing Ohio by any means, just sayin. If I had money like you (guessing because of the sweet ride, I would be moving to the middle of nowhere pronto. City life blows.)

Sucks to hear man! I hate to say it management isn't responsible for protecting your property, and they damn sure aren't responsible for protecting your well being. Hell the Supreme Court has ruled that COPS don't even have to protect you or your property so why would your landlord?

You got a couple of options here though. You can tie yourself up in litigation with a landlord who has the law on his side, costing you tens of thousands of dollars that you will probably NEVER get back, then get counter sued for damages when you lose. Or you can file on your insurance, get your car fixed and move to a better neighborhood.

And yeah, LOL at driving a Maserati and living in a $1100/mo apartment. You need a real garage for a car like that.

NordicaCondominiums.com

...and many others like that are all available for anyone wanting to take up the challenge. Should be able to rank top of the serps almost instantly with little or no effort.

I am sorry for the OP - but am not sure on why he is so hell bent on plastering the internet with useless keywords?

I mean as is pretty evident from the SERPs, the company in point is heavily targetting the term - Nordica Condos - which I find is more apt.

I mean, if I consider purchasing a Condo - I'd probably search for the term Nordica Condos. Heck, half the nutjobs won't even know how to spell the word - Condominiums.

Another thing is that in situations like this which involves prime properties and/or landlords - you're usually up against an array of real estate listing website which are already ranking for listing submitted by agents. And that becomes a huge negative.

Also, must say some pretty brilliant SEO right there.

You haven't been around long enough to be mouthy. You clearly don't know the backstory on Gary Thiem which was, at one time years ago, hosted at GaryThiem.com and was only up for about 30 days total. It received 10s of thousand of visitors in that period as it went somewhat viral because the story was plastered everywhere. The complaints box was directed to makemoniesonline.com for a couple of days before it was redirected to the BBB and 1000 people were dickrolled in one day which was quite hilarious at the time (although not the goal of the page hence the change).

You can't make NordicaCondominiums.com outrank NordicaCondos.com? Son, you disappoint.

I apologize if you got it wrong, but my message was never directed to you - it was meant for the OP. I was merely trying to reason the same with you and hence quoted you along.

What I was trying to say was that I am not sure on why the OP is posting here and elsewhere with the term "Nordica Condominiums" whereas it's pretty evident from the SERPs that the marketing and the base promotion key is "Nordica Condos".

As far as outranking is concerned, penguin already told that us that it doesn't give a fuck about anything. Anything can outrank anything else now.

P.S - Now that you mentioned it, reading up the whole Gary Thiem thing. :P

try $100k+

and the rent is $2000+

So no, he doesn't have a point. Thieves know the building sucks and there is no security thats why the come and go as the please. I used to park outside in my previous residence and in 2 years NOTHING happened.

Plus, we have a Phantom Rolls Royce and others way more expensive cars in the building. THe owners have already moved their cars of planning to move out of the building.

The problem is management that doesn't care.

About the lawsuit, I dont care what I get out of it. It is the principle.

dsiomtw

Dude, landlords are not responsible for your personal property. Go read your lease agreement.

And stop with the nigger rich bullshit. Either sell the car or move to a nicer place.

/thread

fvaldes

lol what a dumb ass you are.

You know what negligence means? How about retaliatory laws?
