Kinney Management Services - Sun City, Arizona

Joke of a company. They allow residents to report false claims and when you ask for proof you get no response. The discriminate against renters of the properties. I have been fined for lies from another resident in regards to parking in front of my house and I do not but everyone else who owns their house can park on the street. I reached out to Mike the owner and he has yet to respond to me about the amount I owe . I have been in this house over 4 years and been dealing with this hoa since the first month. The allow a resident to run a business out of his house that increases traffic in the neighborhood but don’t do anything. If you are looking to buy a house in surprise or sun city find out who the hoa is and if it’s the property management place don’t buy . As you can see in the photos people parking in the street and someone is living in an airstream trailer and I am being harassed for something I am not doing. I hope one day Mike will respond to my emails

Heather showed no compassion and sounded like they are out to start the harassing, writing up any petty violation and collect whatever monies they can from residents! This HOA is a joke, I took my trash cans out a day before trash day and they gave me a violation, are you kidding me! Telling me I have to take them out at Sun Down when the entire neighborhood does it before Sundown. I have live in my place for 8 years and it was never an issue. This company really needs to be reasonable and allow more time, ppl are busy! People park in the streets, side walk and have weeds, etc. Focus on that rather than someone taking the trash out a day before garbage day and stop making peoples lives more stressful than it already has been these last two years!

This HOA is a HUGE problem for me in the Tartesso community, they have yet to fix a wall that is their responsibility, the wall is officially a safety hazard and could fall and hurt someone, paying the HOA fee is pain in the A**, it’s 2023 get with technology, customer service is extremely poor, especially from Misty Paquette. This HOA needs to go.

The housing market is tough right now but if you think it’s bad wait until you have to deal with the Kinney / Kinny HOA and it’s inefficient and inconsistent policies. So far in six months I’ve received three false letters stating we’ve been in compliant for weeds and threatening legal action (a problem others have also cited here). Meanwhile the weeds on their properties and lighting on pathways remain broken for weeks on end with no response as to a repair date or effort. Expect to receive calls from a compliance manager for photos of your weed free yard but then no apologies for their mix up on yards. $50/month and your worst neighbor will be your HoA. Fully expecting a neighborhood rebellion at some point. Do better folks!

This company is a joke. I can't even believe they are still in business. The have no idea of the current laws and try to ticket people on public streets. They have been warned numerous times. I finally forwarded everything to the attorney Generals office.

Next up is they have no licensing to collect data. Get a notice about a car? That's actually illegal. They have to access the dmv database and have a private investigators license. I have personally warned them about this. They still keep doing it. They hopefully will be charged a fine for each one sent.

You can request all your info they have collected and they must respond within 40 days. File a GDPR form with them certified mail. They legally have to comply.

Information that requires a license and protocols such as license plate collection will be shown. If they can't provide these licenses its now a felony and not only can the business itself be sued you can also sue each individual who accessed your data. Including the person who originally person going around writing fines. This petson ahould have a license if working on public streets. Know your rights because this place sure doesn't and it's coming to end up costing them big.

We are waiting to vote them out but can't till the developer builds enough houses. It's really the only way they stay in business. They force this company on you. Don't be scared to file complaints with your city. Enough complaints and they will pull their business license. Let's get this horrible company shutdown for good. By the reviews it shouldn't take long

We got a notice for a vehicle parked on the street that is not ours, it’s our neighbors friend who apparently is staying with them long term. Now fast forward a couple months and my neighbors have weeds up to 2 ft tall in their front yard and weeds so tall in the back they are growing over the backyard fence. I’m just astounded at what this HOA is even good for? Our park nearby looks pretty but why can’t they manage the homes in the neighborhood better?

Absolute worst experience getting in touch with HOA company regarding a residential property real estate listing. I was sent to multiple different line extensions, and multiple different emails. I have still not received an answer and keep being directed to different people and different departments. The individuals that I did get on the phone were extremely unhelpful and said they didn't know what to tell me. I'm trying to get simple HOA payment and transfer information. This should be an easy task and I have been working on it for over 30 minutes being bounced to different individuals within this company.

Second Report: As I promised, here is an update on Kinney Management Service's Sun City office. In addition to incorrectly asserting that I could not lease my condo on a short-term basis, the representative incorrectly claimed that I could not lease to children associated with 55+ people. The Sun City and the Condo rules and regulations allow children under age 19 to stay in the homes for up to 90 days. How could a supposed expert in HOA management make such a claim?

First Report:
On March 27, 2020, a representative of Kinney Management Services's Sun City office (legally known as K Management Services Inc. located in Tempe, AZ) asserted that I could not lease my Sun City condo (Part of Mountain View Condominiums) on a short-term basis. To back up her claim, she cited a 2001 MVC's CCR&R document. However, that rule and the R&Rs were actually abolished in 2005 and also are not present in the most updated R&Rs, which were approved in 2011. The decision to forward an expired document was either an act of incompetence or deceit. When confronted with this information, the representative did not apologize or acknowledge the errors. The back story is that the current Condo Board is not pleased with my decision to lease my property on a short-term basis, even though I have a legal right to rent my property, and hired the HOA management company to find ways to close my rental business down. The actions of the representative clearly violate ethical standards for HOA management companies and may violate Arizona state law. I'll update as new facts become available.
