Tenants: Utilities shut off because of landlord - WSFA.com: News Weather and Sports for Montgomery, AL. (http://www.wsfa.com/story/23310496/tenants-recieve-notice-of-utility-shutoff?app&utm_source=buffer&utm_campaign=Buffer&utm_content=bufferd3cef&utm_medium=facebook)
Tenants receive notice of utility shutoff
(WMC-TV) - Some Memphis renters are being told their utilities will be shut off September 10th. However, according to a letter from MLGW, the decision to shut off their utilities has nothing to do with the tenants themselves.
Eight renters at 1277 Airways Boulevard received a termination letter Saturday from MLGW. According to the occupants, the letter stated MLGW and Boshwit Properties, LLC have terminated the business relationship.
Resident Shelinna Brown is concerned for her children.
"I have three children ma'am. I have no where else to go," explained Brown.
When tenants called the landlord, a man they said is named Andrew Boshwit, there was no answer.
"He's not gonna call back. I've been calling him all month, but today I called him a dozen times," said renter Tiffany Dooley.
According to the Shelby County Assessors office, the apartments are owned by Buck Boshwit which is also listed as Boshwit Properties. Yet, a P.O. Box is the only listed address.
Several Boshwit entities show more than hundred properties in Shelby County.
Back at the apartments, tenants declared they have not been able to reach Boshwit for a month and he asked for their August rent in cash.
"He wouldn't even come and pick up his money so he knows something is going on," continued Dowley.
Residents are now left on a hot holiday weekend wondering what is next.
Action News 5 also called Boshwit but also got an answering machine.
Is this guy a scammer or what?? Were they paying him and he was not paying utilities???
