I wish someone had written the following review before I moved into this expensive dump…read more
You can choose to heed my warnings or not but know everything I write here is true.
I lived here over three years mainly because it is such a hassle to move, which they count on as they significantly raise your rent year after year.
The owners care only about money-know that going in for it will be a problem for you at some point. You may want to have a Lawyer on call.
You will pay top-dollar and get almost nothing:
* NO carport (winters are brutal every day),
* NO central air conditioning (up and down turning the wall unit on/off),
* NO central heating (Good luck on the base-board heat, Oh, you will love the loud sucking sound that comes from the incredibly old heating building boiler),
* NO balconies on the majority of units,
* NO security cameras,
* NO fencing barriers around the back (a neighbor had his car broken into; mine was 'keyed.')
* NO decent parking lot (You will love when it rains),
* NO workout facility
* NO umbrellas, shade, or tables at the pool!
However, for your top-dollar you will get:
* A building front door slamming open and shut every day starting at 5:30 AM for dogs,
* Nobody picking up after those dogs,
* If you like ants, there is plenty of them in the summer regardless of which floor you are on,
* If you want bees inside, you get them too.
The buildings are ancient, and it looks and feels it. Lobby carpeting dirty, doors to the buildings falling apart. The apartments are painfully old, the maintenance people are good but I know they are instructed to fix things as cheaply as possible, and hopefully, you like the music your neighbor is playing because you'll hear it all the time.
Wait until you see the ridiculous FEE FOR PAYING THEM THEIR RENT ONLINE! Yes, you read that right.
They took out the rent drop-off slot to try and get you to pay a late penalty or pay the online fee, which is my guess.
And they won't tell you, but they also have a section 8 low-income federal housing there too they try and 'hide.' You will be paying for that too, one way or another.
I have never met more contemptible, cheap, rotten people that own this real-estate. They tried to sell it last year but could not. Ask yourself why?
The property manager is good, but she has to get everything approved by the owners-and they support nothing that would be in your favor.
There are so many other choices to live at, in, and around the same location that is so much better and LESS EXPENSIVE!
I have never been happier since I moved from that dump, and I am in a great location, great apartment & owners, and much less expensive!
Heed my warnings or not, as stated, I wish someone had warned me.
