Inept or Apathetic

The title says it all, and applies across the board. Maintenance requests get closed out/ignored or are completed in the laziest way possible (i.e., super gluing my toilet paper holder on). I’ve taken to just fixing my apartment myself when possible.

Management seems to not have a clue what’s going on. Honestly a nice looking apartment complex at the surface with more than enough hidden issues to make me avoid this place in the future.

Fine enough, but they'll lie to you.

Nothing could make me sadder than to see that the issue I've come here to write about has in fact been written about repeatedly: management will say they've taken care of a problem without it actually being fixed.

I've now reached out to management five times due to the issue with the gate to Picket road. This gate seems to have a mind of its own. It will open by itself, start to close, get stuck, and repeat.

Kind of funny by itself, the fact that it happens at all hours of the day and night... is a nightmare. It means that I can't sit on my porch. It means that I can't work with my windows open. It means that I can't sleep with my windows open.

But worse than the gate itself is the fact that I've now reached out to management multiple times, each time with a response the next day of "this has been resolved." Each time the note of resolution arrives, and then 24 hours later the problem is back.

Worse still, is that I look at the comments on this thread and I see that this has been an ongoing problem. Not even just that management isn't actually responding well to renters, but literally this gate has been the problem.

If you're searching for an apartment, these apartments are fine. If you're looking to be comfortable, move along.

Shockingly horrible place

The management can’t care less about residents. The gate has been broken forever which makes the gated community insecure and there has been houses and cars broken in. The management show how annoyed they are when you need them to fix problems. It is truly horrible and stay away is my best advice. They claim to have invested in renovations but truly cannot do the most basic things
