Hi. Happy New Year. No worries about the email. Yup, Akiko and I spent a lot of
time partying with friends this year. Kind of unusual for me because usually do
not like the holidays. This year was different.
About your work. I know anytime you are going to be the top at whatever you do
for sure. Even though you are not a native English speaker you can still find
the motivation and determination to be the best at your career. I am going to
support you anytime.
Kinda figured it would not be easy for you and Mimai to stay together.
Relationships are difficult but long distance relationships are really really
difficult. You cannot know what will happen though. You guys could meet again
and get back together. It was the same with me and Akiko and now we are married
with a baby coming.
Anyway, I really want you to try and come to SD before you go back to Japan. I
think you might be going back before us. I tell you this often but you already
know you are welcome anytime.
Enjoy your day and send email again when you can.
Howie.

Hi. I cannot understand why they painted the new wood on the patio and neglected

our living room, FOR A WEEK NOW. I took a picture and am forwarding this to the
HOA. We are paying HOA dues for your salary and for you to expedite these
matters and to ensure these repairs are done correctly. Our stuff is going back
out on the patio this Friday if the painting is completed or not. After there
will be no access. The unexposed wood will then be susceptible to termite
damage. You need to get this done now. Thanks.

Message - Shari. Hi. I am forwarding the
original email sent to you along with the pictures. Not sure why I even need to
send pictures for such a simple matter in order for you to “look into this.”
Even telling these matters to Mr. Wolvin usually turns into a 30 minute
discussion about the inefficiencies of management and the HOA with him doing
close to 100 percent of the talking. It is frustrating, to say the least, to get
anyone to do anything around this place. Everything has become such a matter of
protocol in this country that nothing gets done anymore. I spoke with one of the
patio workers yesterday to no avail. He finally blurted out that he cannot speak
English and does not understand. The patio was installed with a very wide space
between the concrete and the wood. We are on a slope and now need to worry if
anything falls on the floor of the patio it would roll down the slope and into
the street. In addition, the wood does not seem to be treated which means the
dryrot will come back in a few years. In addition, I am requesting information
from the HOA. The president stated at a previous meeting the mansards could not
be removed from the top of the buildings because the adjacent condominium
projects could sue our HOA for view issues. I consulted an HOA attorney two
weeks ago who told me this is completely untrue. I would appreciate proof of the
validity of the statements the HOA president made. Send when you can. Howie

Message - Shari.
Hi again. I really should tell you my wife and I became very frustrated with the
way things are being run at the Brentwood. Many of our neighbors are complaining
about the same issues but probably most of them are not putting their words into
action. We complain about things which will become much greater problems in the
future and still nothing is done. This is the reason for the “attitude” in my
email.
The pine trees are a good example. Instead of removing these trees, which will
inevitably need to be done someday, they actually put in more of these trees on
the slope facing Navajo Road. The trees produce a tremendous amount of dust,
debris, pollen, and sap not to mention being a fire hazard.
At this point we are getting ready to move back to Japan. Good news for you no
doubt. We plan to rent the condo until values pick up in a few years, at which
time we will be very happy to sell and move on.
Really unfortunate the issues facing this project are not put to a popular vote.
Instead a few individuals are allowed to decide matters which detract from the
livability, desirability, and the value of our units.
Incidentally, not trying to be “rude” at all. If this was your condo and you
were in the same situation, no doubt you would be unhappy. We already spent a
week with all our patio stuff in the living room which was unnecessary had they
simply finished the job the same day last week. Send email when you can.

Hi. I am writing to you about problems with one of your property managers. Shari
Simpson is our only contact for issues concerning the Brentwood Condominiums.
She needs to be educated in the ways of customer service. For over 20 years
there was no need to complain about anything but recent problems now give me no
choice.
Many repairs were made to the project over the last few months. Issues came up
which Shari was notified about via email. She rarely returns emails. Last week
our patio was redone. The wood was painted but the painters forgot a two foot
section on the top rail. I told the painters about it and Shari. In fact, I sent
pictures to her showing the unpainted portion of the patio. When there was no
reply from her another email was sent. She then replied to my email and said I
was “rude” and that my email was unappreciated and unacceptable. Another
resident said Shari once slammed down the telephone and actually hung up on them
during a telephone conversation.
THIS WOMEN NEEDS TO LEARN ABOUT CUSTOMER SERVICE. No matter what kind of
attitude Shari receives from an owner or resident, SHE HAS NO RIGHT TO HANG UP
ON THEM OR CALL THEM RUDE AND NOT REPLY TO THEIR EMAILS. All she needs to do is
set up an auto reply on her email account to let senders know their emails were
received. The HOA fees from our project and other projects you work with pay her
salary and keep YOUR company in business. I was self employed as a real estate
appraiser for many years. The customer service afforded to my clients made my
company very successful, allowing me to retire early. I expect nothing less from
your company. I expect a full apology from Shari ASAP.
Our patio furniture and two bikes have been sitting in our living room for a
week and a half now and still Shari has done nothing to get this work completed.
She was sent two other emails and, as usual, no replies were sent. As a common
courtesy, she can at least acknowledge receipt of the emails.
In any event, my wife Akiko and I plan to move everything back on the patio
tomorrow, Friday, since we are entertaining guests this weekend. We are going to
Home Depot to purchase paint and complete the project ourselves. I am going to
recommend to our HOA that a new management company be retained for the Brentwood
Condominiums. Please send email regarding all this when you can. Thanks.

Hi again. I am still waiting for your reply to the original email which is now
being resent. This email is also being sent to Shari Simpson. Originally all we
wanted was for the one piece of wood to be painted which the painters, for some
reason, forgot to paint. The painters told us not to move anything out on the
patio since they planned to come back immediately to finish the job. They worked
on the patio over a week ago. Now after closer inspection, we are requesting the
entire patio be redone.
I was a real estate appraiser and property inspector for many years and know the
difference between good and substandard construction. I cannot believe Mr.
Wolven even subbed out to these guys. They obviously need to learn the usage of
a T square. See the attached pictures.
The walls are not square and there is an excessive gap between the concrete and
the lower sill. Really trying to work with you guys but my emails are ignored
and attending an HOA meeting is pretty close to useless as residents are
basically cut off after a few minutes even if their complaints are not totally
expressed.
If there is no reply to this email this time I plan to resolve this another way.
I am already in contact with an HOA attorney. Hopefully this mess can be
resolved. Waiting for you to reply. Thanks.

Hi. I was kinda hoping we could meet and you could be in some of the English
site videos. Was able to persuade Akiko to be in a few but really not her thing.
She is becoming quite popular on YouTube though. Seems like you might be too
busy to meet now.
Anyway, the English site is doing phenomenally well with the addition of the new
Classroom section. We are finally getting some pretty good income from the site.
Because of this, and other factors, Akiko is leaning more towards staying in
this country. It changes all the time though and I am waiting for her to finally
decide.
Another factor is recently I connected with some old friends and made many new
friends. The last few months were awesome with Akiko and I spending tons of time
with these old and new friends. In fact, we go out for breakfast with many of
them almost every day. We also made many dinner parties and were invited out for
dinner a lot too. Really nice these days.

Hi. I received email from Mary Ellen saying you guys would be at the bagel shop
from 6:30 am to 7:00 am. We really wanna see you guys but Akiko is kinda wiped
out recently and maybe a bit too early. Any way you guys can stay until about
8:00 am? Find out and let me know when you can. Should be online until pretty
late tonight and in the morning. Talk to you again.

Hi. I wanna thank you for the concern. Everything is good but incredibly busy.
In full video producing mode now. Already 140 videos made for the English site
with another 80 on the within the week. The site visitors is hitting a record
almost every night now. Akiko is back making Google Gadgets and is planning to
quit work if the site visitors continues to go up. Anyway, putting in 16 hour
days until the weekend to get as much finished as possible.
Akiko was feeling pretty good up until this week and now pretty wiped out every
day. We might come on Sunday but need to let you now towards the end of the week
to see if she is feeling better. You can send details if you want. Time, food,
people, stuff like that. Anyway, send email when you can.
Howie.

Hi. I was wondering about some specifics for Sunday. Maybe you could go to the
bagel store this weekend. We can talk as long as you want now, even until the
cows come home. Why?
Because Akiko was laid off today. Yup, she is now among the ranks of the
unemployed. This is actually pretty good timing for us though since I need her
back on the computer to do techie stuff. The English site is pretty much getting
a new record for visitors every night. Now adding tons of content.
Today I was home playing with PlayDoh. Yup, was using it to make a pronunciation
model. Pretty funny actually. Check the English site and click on Pronunciation
and then on any of the lessons. Send email when you can.

Hey, I sent this email to you and Mary Ellen last night but no reply. Now
wondering if you received it and sending it again. Akiko and I went shopping
today and ran into a lady who often goes to the bagel store. She said you guys
were looking for us. We really wanna see you. Send email tonight and let me know
the next time you plan to go there. We can talk as long as you want now, even

Hi. Actually this weekend we are watching the Super Bowl advertisements, um not
the game. The following weekend might work though. Be sure to let me know when
you plan to be at the bagel shop. We probably will not be going much unless we
know you and or Mary Ellen will be there. Send email when you can.

Hi. I am taking a few minutes from the crazy project to let you know Akiko and I
will be at the bagel shop from 7 am until 8 am but we can stay longer if you
plan on coming. Let me know what time you can make it. Talk to you again.
