NEW MANAGEMENT HAS RUINED THIS PLACE!

When I moved here in 2020, I couldn't have been happier or more impressed with the management, the maintenance, and my neighbors. The owners brought in a new management team end of last year and now the place is falling apart. The gate has been broken since January 2024. They've made no attempt to fix it. I pay a premium to live in a gated community, but new management doesn't seem to have the tenants safety in mind. The fountain in out courtyard has been broken for months. It used to look so… nice. Now it's just a dirty, nasty, mosquito magnet. Ceasar was our friendly long-time property maintenance guy. Everyone loved having him around and he could fix anything. He had been here for years. I recently found out that this new management let him go. Now, nothing gets fixed. On top of all of that, they have the audacity to raise rent prices. I'm moving out as soon as my lease is up. Don't even bother moving here. You'll end up paying way more than it's worth.

A promise means nothing

The new property manager promised to call me back with some information about an apartment I was very interested in. She told me on what day she'll call me with the answer. Her call is 8 days overdue as of today. Since then I called once and my referral agency called three times to see what's going and each time she's unavailable to talk, while the staff has no idea of what's going on with the situation. This set me back, since I stopped looking for an apartment - I was ready to move into the… one I had a question on. Kind of glad it happened before I paid or signed anything, because they promised me a lot of work on the apartment. So don't let those honest eyes fool you - take what they promise you with a grain of salt. I mean, if a scheduled call back is a problem for them, do you really think they'll address other issues that will invariably come up during the lease term?

New management team unprofessional

I lived at this location for over 3 years and it has been a good experience for the most part great location friendly neighbors and the ladies that use to manage the property we're amazing. There is a new management team and they have made changes that are not in the best interest of tenant's. The office no longer accepts packages in the office so if you have an important package the will not accept it. Very disappointing. The owners raised the rent twice since they took over the property in… 2020. They have not done any updates on the apartments. They just recently painted the front of the building to make it have curb appeal but beyond the front they have done nothing. The new office team took out the mail holding to make room for a chair and plant to make the office look nice but at no convenience to the tenant's. They have washer and dryer units outside downstairs and they are out of service alot of the times and owner have raised the prices on the machines.
