Chatham Village Apartamentos

I've honestly wanted to move out since the first week I moved in. These apartments have holes in between windows & doors so bugs constantly get in, maintenance doesn't take care of animal pest issues and seems incompetent. The buildings are so old that floors are creaky and I can hear neighbors going up and down stairs and walking around. Walls seem thin.

Toured this property recently. The landscaping and surrounding neighborhoods are beautiful. Beautiful up to date apartments.

It is VERY clear that the front office only cares about the rent check from you and absolutely NOTHING else. Every request for privacy has not only been ignored but seemingly blatantly violated with out a single notion of caring. So much, in fact, that they make YOU feel reprehensible for THEIR poor judgment.

Complained multiple times about broken rules by others and management will pull out post-it notes and write it down but that is where it ends. Nothing changes.

Living spaces are out dated and threre is no preventitive maintenance except maybe a furnace filter for the 1990's furnace.

Other dogs poop on the lawn and we get a notice?

New tenants can't park between two lines and have loud music coming from unattended cars....what?

Management has deaf ears it would seem.

I would absolutely NOT recommend living at Chatham Village for a long list of reasons. First being the quality of the homes. The model that they show is absolutely NOT what the homes look like. My townhome had extremely old and broken cabinets and appliances, not the nice upgraded versions the model has. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING. Is painted a horrible tan color. The walls, baseboards, ceilings, doors, hinges, and even the metal railings in the home. They are also horrible about answering... phone calls, as it takes many to finally get the work done on the property. I have to call multiple times every year due to an enormous amount of bugs in the home (no matter if all the doors and windows are closed). And each time is 3 or 4 phone calls before a response is given. They send out letters stating you are in violation of the lease with one broken window blind facing the road for a week (again because getting replacements involves them returning your call) but a neighbor has a full workshop built off of their patio, with security cameras (about 8 total) around the perimeter of their property, which is viewable from the street. I do not mind enforcing a uniform look, however I prefer it to be for every property . As one blind not being in proper place, is much less of an eyesore than a large workshop thrown together with tarps and pop-up tents on a patio. Finally within the last year a large, newsworthy crime did occur on the property. While it was an isolated incident, none of the residents were informed. I personally had to find out via the news and various law enforcement agencies being on the property. While I realize that it has nothing to do with Chatham Village, and everything to do with a certain individual, if these news crews are going to be snooping around, a letter giving a brief statement would have been appreciated. I will say that the residents around you are very kind, and friendly, and the property itself does feel very safe. However overall I do not believe it is the best apartment complex in the area, and you would obtain more for your money elsewhere. Lee mas
