Gaska

I wish I had seen the reviews before, the worst management company I have ever seen. At first, they act very friendly and greeted but at the end when you want to move out, they show they real face. We have been in their property for about 5 years and we did everything by ourselves to make it like our own house. It took them a month to fix a window!!! which we ended up paying more for electricity. They never came to sanitize the area cause there were lots of cockroaches, bugs and ants and we did it by ourselves. At the end, they asked us to professionally clean the house and wash the bedroom carpets which we did and gave the receipts, when we moved out they charges us so so huge even for the things we had done!!! Then I called to talk to manager who never ever showed up and I talked to several people except for him. So I called to housing center and they told me all of their charges are «natural wear and tear» and they shouldn’t charge us. I wrote a letter asking them to correct it and after almost 40 – 45 days of calling several times and fake promises, they sent us back a very little amount. I wish I had taken photos before and after to show them what natural wear and tear means and how we kept the unit, but I had trusted them and it was our first renting experience, so People, please be aware of what you will be facing, take pictures and keep all the receipts for your records cause you definitely will be double charged!!! I believe GOD is watching them and they will pay for their every acts in future.

We moved in the 1051 Justin in Glendale, it’s managed by GASKA the worst mistake we could have ever made. First of as soon we moved in I noticed water damaGe under the sink they fixed it.
The closet doors keep falling off the manager is the laziest person have see he says he will change it but it’s been a year nothing had been done. Now there are roaches they came and sprayed but it got worst. And when it rains I get water stains on the crown molding on the floor and we have mold in the bathroom they say it’s not but it is. And now they raised the rent by 100 dollar because I said
I will file a claim with public health Dpt. But this management company from what I from my neighbors raises there rent twice a year. Worst place don’t rent

Horrible company! If you want your security deposit stolen, Rent from these people. If you want to have to pay for a garage clicker, and not get your money back because you technically bought it even though you have access going in and out of their property, rent from these people. If things are becoming in a none working condition and your okay with having them lag to get it fixed, rent from these people. In order words– it’s over priced — worst customer service! Hey have other secret business names so make sure you check them out in all aspects before you rent from them. Never again will I give a dime to this unprofessional so called business

Unbelievable experience, the worst place to live in ever!
you know! for me to actually waste some time to write a review it would even be because of an amazing service that I received, or a very very disturbing, disgusting & unreal experience that you would not even believe it could be that bad.
Read Ashely B. review & she is right about every single word she said!
especially about what she said about Jasmin!
God, I can’t believe am over with Gaska, one of the happiest moments in my life was leaving that awful place,
My wife was living in CA for school & I was living in NY, I got a job in CA, & time for me to move, she had finals at the time of the move & we didn’t really have a lot of time to research & read reviews, so we saw an ad, we called, my wife checked the place really quickly she said it was ok!
We provided Jasmin with everything she needs, SSNs, IDs, credit checks & when it came to signing the lease she wouldn’t approve it unless we both sign (am in NY) impossible to me to sign, so we agreed on notarizing (I get it notarized she asks for more notarization) had me leave my work couple of times (while am on a notice & I have a lot of work to do) just in order to get our lease done, nevermind, I did, we get the keys, I move to the apartment, & then she asks me to go again sign the lease (even though she have it notarized) its my new job, I have no time off, I work in DTLA & the apartment is in Glendale, she refuses to meet me during a lunch & not available on weekends, tries to force me to take time off (my first month on the new job) just to sign a paper, I ignored until I got a chance to go late to work & do it, you go to the office, no greetings, no smiles, all talks Armenian, rude, makes you wait without even telling you how long, Jasmin comes, give me the paper I sign, & I leave without she even say any good or nice word, she deals with you as you work for her & she is that rude boss!
its really normal that when you move to a new place new experiences occur & that is underst&able! our neighbors above were annoying, we heard banging in the middle of the night, we wake up on that 3 nights in row, then I got fed up I spoke to them, they were nice, apparently it was their kid, & that stopped, after a while it happened again we complain, then we are told «NO WAY» they are very nice people & they won’t do it! (yeah we are liars) no one says anything to them.
a week later, we have our parents visiting with in-​laws & we had a lot of people over, we get a little loud (all before 10:00pm on weekend) second day we receive a notice in mail that we are annoying & needs to stop doing parties!!! WTH!
Walls are really thin, you can hear everything, including the garage door that keeps opening & closing all day long, it feels like a mini earthquake everytime it happens, The neighbors (the Armenian ones) they gather every morning in the common area laughing chatting, moving metal chairs on the floor, & NO ONE SAYS ANYTHING TO THEM! because they are Armenians! RACISM IN ITS WORST SHAPE!
Bedrooms are very small, bathroom barely fits one person, Kitchen closets won’t fit our dish plates, Kitchen drawers barely fits your spoons & knives, closets are soo old & smelly, no matter hoe much you try to clean them.
Garage sucks, dirty, entrance very steep no way to enter without scratchs
Bath tub was partially clogged, we thought its slow in draining water, so we ignored after a month or so, it stops draining water, we report it, they send someone to fix it then without notice we receive a bill for (I guess $ 59) it wasn’t our fault, & I fought them back, & ended up paying half of it.
First year is done, they increase the rent $ 70, & asks for extra $ 70 for Deposit!!!
Garbage disposal comes every morning at about 6:30 am, its a towing truck, goes into the garage with reverse sounds (teet teeet teet) tows out the big garbage container it shakes the whole building, EVERY SINGLE MORNING!
My wife graduates, gets a job, we decide to move,
I read some reviews, people warns about Jasmin keeping about ¾th of the security deposit for any silly reason! I play smart, I ask for initial inspection, finds out that they will charge you for paint, carpet shampooing, whole apartment cleaning, law sucks here, so I hire a company shampoo the carpet ($ 66 for both rooms) I hire the same painter they use to do touchups in the apartment ($ 120) & we clean every single corner in the house (all on the day of moving out), final inspection: they still need us to clean the windows & screens from outside (the street side) is that my fault! I keep arguing for an hour to get an agreement to pay $ 100 extra cleaning fee (I SWEAR IT WAS CLEANER THAN WE GOT IT).
we were lied to that they have pictures for scratches in wood floor when we first moved in, thank GOD I took pictures, otherwise she would charge me for that!
Check these pictures!!!

DO NOT LIVE HERE!
Trust me, YOU WILL REGRET IT!

When I spoke to the owner of the apt to complain about nose he listened and then told me He didn’t know you (as if that has anything to do with anything) and hung up on me. Very rude person!!!

I was reading a part of Harry Potter that described what it was like to encounter a dementor. It said, «Dementors are among the foulest creatures that walk this earth. They infest the darkest, filthiest places, they glory in decay and despair, they drain peace, hope, and happiness out of the air around them. Even Muggles feel their presence, though they can’t see them. Get too near a Dementor and every good feeling, every happy memory will be sucked out of you. If it can, the Dementor will feed on you long enough to reduce you to something like itself — soul-​less and evil. You’ll be left with nothing but the worst experiences of your life.» After reading this, so much made sense. Jasmin Bedoyan is a dementor.
I really wanted to detail everything that went wrong in my experience with Gaska Inc. I tried to write this review so many times. I finally realized the problems I had with my apartment were the exact problems I had with Jasmine. They are both falling apart. Both old, stale, and full of mold. They both aren’t the most attractive things out there but you assume they have redeeming qualities… Till you realize, nope, they don’t. What you see is what you get with both of them. And if you’ve seen Jasmin…
I moved in with so much hope and excitement. I left fleeing an apartment full of black mold and with a chronic, unexained cough.
They don’t replace anything. They blame you for everything. You have to talk to Jasmin, which is it’s own form of punishment. I can’t even hear her name without feeling rage and disgust. That Dementor ruined Jasmine rice for me. That Dementor ruined Aladdin for me.
I am mostly writing this to tell anyone who is thinking of moving in, DON’T DO IT. No matter what you have done in this life, you do not deserve Jasmin. I have seen the promised land and I am here to tell you that life is too short to spend even one minute in Gaska’s third world dirt holes. You can do better! I believe in you. ANYTHING is better than Gaska. Afghanistan is better than Gaska.
I am so happy to finally be free. Leaving Jasmin is like leaving an abusive relationship. She is trying to keep my deposit and I’d almost let her have it just to be done with her but I’ll be damned if I give that witch any more cheeseburger money. If the tone of this review is mean, blame the Dementor. She stole my time, my deposit, and my kindness.
And I give this BS place zero stars. You need to invent zero stars.

Horrible company!!! With dilapidated buildings. Disgusting! All your buildings in sunland need to be updated very ran down!

Horrible company. Especially one of their staff JASMIN BEDOYAN. Ugh stay away from this place!!!
As what the other people have mentioned before, they are nice in the beginning, then once you hand them your deposit check, it just goes down from there, rapidly.
My husband and I rented one of their units when I was 8months pregnant. A couple of months in when I had my baby already, their toilet backed up and dirty, smelly water was coming up from the tub. This was in the guest bathroom where nobody hardly ever uses it. We called them and they sent a couple of plumbers who never talked to us, just went in and out (with booming voices while they talk to each other as I was putting my baby to sleep for a nap). A couple of weeks after, I received a bill for $ 200+ for the plumbing stating they had found «baby wipes and hair buildup» which had caused the problem. It was so upsetting because I could swear to anybody anywhere that the fault was not ours. It’s sickening that they used my baby as a possible way to put the blame on us when the plumbers never showed or told us what the blockage was. And how they can be so specific at what kind of wipes were there is beyond me. It could have been disinfectant wipes or facia wipes, etc. IT became an ongoing issue until when I told them we should use a third party to settle the issue and if they refuse, I would have to file a complaint against them. At first they said they will just charge me half of the bill because after all we are «first time offenders» but I refused to accept the fault.
It was just a horrible experience for us that my husband and I decided to just end our contract early and do whatever they want us to do to get our deposit back. In the end it took JASMIN BEDOYAN almost a month to mail us our check (California law states it should be mailed or hand delivered within 21 calendar days, it took her 26 days and numerous phone calls). She is just a horrible lady. She should not work with other people because she has no sense of customer service or compassion. She will avoid your calls all the time. You will know that she screens her calls because whenever you call, the receptionist will ask you who you are and what the call is about and after a brief hold, she will tell you that Jasmin is busy (an occurrence of 14 out of 15 calls). Even as you speak with her already, she will respond to your concerns with pure sarcasm and sometimes won’t even let you finish your sentences.
Throughout our 6month stay there too, we received all sorts of memos like saying we can not call the on site manager if we get locked out, that we have to get a locksmith, etc… that we can not gather in the common areas LOL. Then why put a «common area» in the first place???
Again, they do not deserve even one star. They should not be a business at all.

NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL! They are very nice at the beginning and before signing the lease, but after you become a tenant they don’t even answer your calls.
–There is no Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment which is the agency and owner responsibility to provide it to the tenants. (No residential rules are followed specifically in their Glendale residencies)
–The agency doesn’t take any responsibility regarding the violent residents.
— As a tenant I did the agency job with contacting the Housing department of Los Angeles County and obtained legal help.
–The property manager who represents the agency is Ms. Jasmin, who is very nice and smiling at the first day and later didn’t even answer my phone calls. She just left a message with «Do whatever is your convenience».
–At the move out time I had to buy the toilet seats (which is a common wear and tear) otherwise I’d be charged for $ 35 per toilet seat. I have the pictures that there was no damage on the seats.
–They take a separate cleaning fee for the floors even there was no damage and no dust on it!
–They increased my rent after one year for $ 95!
_​They charge the tenants for the usual wear and tears.

This company is the worst every they stoked my deposit. They are cheap and unprofessional. At the end of my lease we had a walk-​through with the owner and he clearly checked everything off but when they send my deposit back he had markings that he had not checked off and he stoled $ 1800 of my money and he turned off his phone did not reply to anything. this company is by far the worst apartment management company I’ve ever lived and I’ve been living in this town for 30 years. They never clean they never answer ur demands. Please don’t rent from them unless you want to get ur money stollen from you. All the old tenants told me that how bad this place is. I should of believed them. I’m filing a lawsuit against them. And even if I have to pay out if pocket I will make sure that they get what’s coming to them

I’ve worked with this company since they’ve been in business over the past 3 decades and in my experience, have been pretty impressed with the professionalism that they have shown me. They seem to really care about their business, since they’re a small company, which really stands out from all the other ruthless corporates that my company works with. Overall, I’ve been very happy working with them.

I was looking to move to a new apartment in Glendale about a month ago. I found out about Gaska, Inc. and called their number. I was greeted by a professional receptionist who referred me to various different units the company managed. The company offers competitive rates and good customer service! They were also able to show me the units on a day and time that worked best with my schedule.
I’d definitely recommend this company for anyone looking to rent in the Glendale area.

It’s unfortunate to feel the need to write such a review, and I do my very best not to write exceedingly negative things about anyone, but every once in a while someone comes along that deserves every negative comment.
Gaska Inc. is one of those entities; a consistent scourge in the communities unlucky enough to have them as property owners/​managers. Gaska is an unresponsive, dishonest company that lends the whole business of property management and development a bad name.
From a community standpoint, Gaska is the very definition of a firm that insists on doing business and owning properties in a variety of communities they care nothing about and hold no vested interest. Nor do they pretend to. Although, they are far too often very happy to take the credit when efforts to improve their properties advance through very little effort or assistance on their part, and, in fact, advance despite their empty promises and road blocks.
Gaska is bad for businesses that locate to their properties and bad for the communities those properties serve.
Quite simply, shameful.

If there was a negative rating I’d give them that because they don’t even deserve one star. First off before they even approved us for a rental unit they made us go thru hell as if we were purchasing a home, should taken that as a red flag in the beginning and ran the opposite direction but didn’t cause I really liked the apartment. Anyway, come the end of our lease we moved due to their increasing rent while they decreased rent for the new renters. Upon giving our 30 day notice we were informed by several other tenants old and current to be careful because they try to keep as much of your deposit as possible, money hungry assh*les. After that I made sure I’d give them as little reason as possible to do that so we had a pre moving inspection during which I broke the blinds trying to open to show the lady that it works just fine, she didn’t care of course I was still charged. The next morning our last day there I cleaned the apartment top to bottom with bleach and left it spotless all while 8 weeks pregnant. I was sure there wasn’t much they can keep but I was wrong, they kept ¾ of our deposit all for stupid reasons, they said the toilet seat was too worn, they charged for cleaning, carpet washing, blinds, some spots, I don’t know what else but it all added to alot. we called and faught with them so they returned the toilet seat money and half of the cleaning money. If I had known the laws of california I would have taken their ass to court and had my money returned because so much of it was not kept legally. Too bad I’ve passed my statute of limitations or else I’d take them now!!! After I left I learned that one of the managers from the company was telling my aunt how they take peoples money for no good reason because they know it won’t be faught for, another lady who was living in the building said they charged her $ 30 per light bulb because she took the ones in the chandilier out, she called her lawyer at which point Gaska returned her money promptly. Honestly I hope they go out of business! They are sick money hungry douches who are taking advantage of perfectly nice people who they know won’t fight to get their money back either because they don’t know the laws or don’t want to go thru it. I personally wish I had known more because I would have done alot more. Bottom line, don’t rent from these money hungry asses!!!
