Landlord refuses to release rental history
I'm in Oregon and I've been renting a house from a property management company for the past 18 months and am now month-to-month. My rent is now too expensive so I applied at an apartment complex, and after a week or so I received a call from the complex saying that the property management company was refusing to release my rental history and could not approve my application. They told me the reason given for not releasing it was because I had not given my 30 days' notice yet. I've called the property management company 5-10 times over the past week and cannot get a live person and have received no response to my messages. They weren't at their office when I dropped by either.
Is that even legal? It's pretty much impossible to get approved with an incomplete application these days. This company is absolutely horrible and I can't wait to get away from them.
