I moved in August 2012. My initial thoughts on the management were great, Sue was extremely nice and helpful, Jane was ok too. The person that works on Sat monring though, is not friendly at all. As for when we first went to look at the townhome we would be moving into I was not too impressed. I have a son thats 2 and the carpets in there were the same ones installed when the place was built.. 30 some years ago. Dark brown and disgusting! Only agreed to move in with new carpets installed which we could only get if we signed a year lease instead of sub leasing like our originial plan was, which was fine. We signed a year lease got new carpets that were 10x better and made the place brighter and seemed more clean. Its an old complex so not everything was as nice and new as I had hoped to be moving into but they had installed new carpets and put in new light fixtures which helped freshen it up. I was really pleased the first few months. We live in the courtyard townhomes where your allowed a dog. Which is great! BUT since winter came along, my utilities are RIDICULOUSLY high. Decembers was $275 and Jan was $230 and the only reason I got it to drop that much is beacause I am now freezing in my apartment.. I had to drop the temparture and cover the windows.. Still too high for such a small townhouse with only TWO smaller outside walls.. And when I go to complain about that, all Jane can say is, Its been cold this winter.. and At least the winter is starting to be behind us .. I agree we did have SOME cold days this winter but not ALL winter! So I tried all I could to get my electric bill down, including asking for the managers to send out the maintenance guy to clean out my dryer vents. I was having to put ONE load of wash into the dryer for 180+ minutes! Again ridiculous! I initially had requested this in Dec after my first crazy high electric bill... this just got done March 07.. and between that I had brought it up several times, which in my opinion was not being taken serious. Another thing with the upstairs bathroom the floor by the bath tub is soft, meaning something is going on under the floor boards, rotting wood something. Again mentioned that to the management and got someone out there to check it because the ceiling in m kitchen where the bathtub is upstairs, was leaking! Had to call them out there three times about it because the maintenance guy had only cauked by the bathtub the first time I called to complain about this. The second time he changed the shower head. Then the third he changed the tub faucet. Yet the ceiling was still leaking and now CRACKING! He finally got there and patched the ceiling but the bathroom floor is still soft and that problem is not being addressed. As for the neighbors, on one side I have a the greatest neighbors but one the other side, lives a jerk. Who thinks he owns the parking lot and can tell me where I can and can not park because he thinks his truck and motorcycle are top priority when it comes to parking space.. Once again, went to the management about this problem and they supposedly left a note but he is STILL doing it! Complained again so we ll see if this time they actually make sure he gets the memo and stops. We never really use the pool or sauna but its nice having it there and I ve used the party room once. It was nice actually. I really like the fact that if you live in the courtyards you get some privacy and I love that you can have a dog and as far as I know there is no weight restrictions like most places that allow dogs, which was a huge issue for us when we were looking for somewhere to move to. Overall in the summer I like it here but in the winter I hate it. The longer I live here the more I want out. The rent isn t too bad but with no utilities included and them being so high, the price I pay to live here I would much rather live somewhere else. I honestly wouldn t recommend it but everyone has their own opinions. read more
