@tliou: On June 23, 2025, The Cooper apartments in Fort Worth caught on fire. 834 residence were displaced. It was a historic six alarm fire in the city. One month later, residents are still in limbo. Today, several gathered to protest the lack of transparency from apartment management and building ownership. While this resident tells us she did not plan to barge past security, she says her emotions took her there. Her building was not the one on fire. Her unit was one of the farthest from the fire and is undamaged. She was able to get up to the second floor, unlock her unit and get in, and she started tossing her belongings over the balcony. She grabbed everything off the sidewalk, stuffing it in her car. At this point, she had no update from apartment management about a timeline to return for her things. So she took matters in her own hands. This afternoon, a new apartment management company that took over this week tells us they will start the process for next steps on 7/28 and contact each resident individually. @WF@WFAAo#fortworthe#texas

I drove passed this the day it was on fire. This was so many weeks ago now. The fact that people haven’t been let in to get their belongings is crazy! Especially since it’s not an affected building even!! Sketchy!!

good for you! 👏👏 my dads complex burnt but was told it was only severe smoke damage…we made a list for them to retrieve items & they said it burnt but showed no proof they kept all valuable items for themselves worth thousands!

Well going down the stairs took more time and probably resistance she wanted to get in out as fast as possible over the balcony … idk where the breakables are ( lamps tvs etc)

You didn’t have to throw your stuff like that , you could’ve put everything inside the bags before throwing everything out .

PM here.. Guarantee the reason they want no one to enter is the Owner(s) of complex will be trying to get $$ insurance from building that caught on fire (fraud) they will claim smoke damage and loss of business for the tenants that were on the application process.
The longer they let out the more $$$ they'll receive.
Good luck

I’m a little confused to why she’s throwing it off the balcony - I mean I know she’s not supposed to be in there but she is so no containers no boxes ? Seems like going in and packing all she could quietly would be less likely to get her thrown out.

They don’t want you to access your stuff because they don’t want you to move out permanently. They want you back when it’s safe to let residents move back in. Breaking leases and re-renting every unit would be too hard for them so they just leave everyone in limbo.

If your building was not affected they have no reason to bar you from your items.
