A major apartment company in Colorado is charging a Greeley family more than $4,000 in fees after their mother died in her unit, something the family feels is “unethical.” This comes in the same month as the company was sued in Denver court for allegedly charging illegal fees to tenants across the state.
In October, Leticia Farrer had just moved in to the Avenida apartment complex in Loveland, managed by a major apartment company called Greystar.
Farrer had dementia, but her family says she was still quite independent.
“She was so fun, very fun, and very family oriented. She loved her kids, loved her grandkids, she was always there for them,” recalled Farrer’s former daughter-in-law of 25 years, Kelly Gantos. “We thought we would get her into a place that was 55+ community. They had lots of events that were supposed to be able to get the seniors out and, you know, mingle so she could have friends.”
