Buyers Beware! I…read morewanted to make potential buyers aware of the mismanagement of the HOA Board as well as our "property management" company Beacon. An underground pipe burst 207 days ago. This resulted in the HOA needing to repair the line. The contractors for the HOA came into my home, destroyed property (flooring), and have not resolved the issue to fix their destruction of my floor. I still have a hole in my floor (207 days after reporting the incident). It is a trip/fall hazard. I twisted my ankle walking across the living room at night around day 150 of unresponsiveness. Nonetheless, the Board (including HOA president, Price) have refused to assist in resolving this matter. Also, there are frequent issues with the recently replaced shingles. They either didn't adhere them correctly or they didn't even put nails in them. I've had to get the shingle people to my house 9 times. If the wind blows more than 10 MPH, there is a decent chance that someone will lose shingles and then have to beg Beacon/HOA Board to come out and actually fix the problem. The front gate is broken often. Both the call box as well as the gate itself are constantly being "repaired". This happens every few months. Nonetheless, I wanted to make prospective buyers aware of these issues.

This was my home for almost 5 years, and I mostly loved it…read more I love the location, and it's only gotten better with more and more places opening on the Westside. I love the proximity of a walking neighborhood. I love the brick, the well-maintained vegetation, and even the attempt at community. The dues are reasonable, the pool is well-maintained, there's a playground, a dog park, recycling. They have an annual yard sale and sponsored safety activity, including visits from the police to address the neighborhood issues. The HOA is a little bit crazy, but what HOA isn't? -They added assigned parking spaces to our square, saying that they had asked all the owners, when in fact they hadn't asked us... and then when another square wanted the reserved spaces removed, since they no longer needed it, they said that they didn't have that power. -When we were burglarized, and we noticed that the power was cut from the shed that is unlocked so that Ga Power can easily read the meters, they were primarily concerned that we hadn't notified them immediately when the incident happened. They were unwilling to spend the money to have locks installed to prevent the power from being cut in a similar manner in the future. -There were annual external facade inspections that meant your kickplate, door handle, and number all had to be shiny. One of these instructed me to replace my kickplate (not just polish). Interestingly enough it took them 2 years to notice that I had a satellite dish on the roof... so I question the intent and the thoroughness of the inspections... -They won't let you rent your place unless you bought before 1996, and they will be lackadaisical and inconsiderate about responding to your requests for a hardship clause. WP is a great place to live, and totally worth the extra effort required by the COA.

In the few years I have lived in a community managed by Heritage Property, I have received several…read morenon-compliance notices, usually for small things (mailbox numbers faded, grass need to be mowed, etc) but each time a photo of the violation was attached to the notice to show the issue. On Sept. 11, 2025 I received a notice that I was out compliance on a maintenance issue that was observed on my property on August 29, 2025. This was the FIRST and only violation notice that did not include a photo. Interestingly, the violation I was cited for had been taken care of August 19, 2025. I emailed asking for a photo of the violation that was observed on August 29th but never received any acknowledgement that a photo exists. I called my property manager over 20 times, left a voicemail every day until the box was full and then cleared and not a single time was my message returned. I emailed copies of date and time stamped pictures from my doorbell and driveway cameras showing a handyman was at my house on August 19th to fix the issue. I sent copies of text messages between me and the handyman confirming his arrival on August 19th and copies of the Zelle or CashApp payment to him when the work was done on August 19th and all that has not satisfied them. I requested a hearing with the Board but one was not granted. However, the Board did waive 50% of my total amount due, which had been accruing a daily fine of $5 for weeks. Last week, I received an email saying that nothing else will heard on this matter and it is considered closed. To which I replied that I would not pay a fine for work that had been completed and that I could prove had been done before the date they said they were on my property. I have told them that if they could provide a photo and prove that I was in violation on August 29th, I would pay the fine. During this time I did receive another non-compliance notice WITH a picture because my grass was overgrown, forget the fact that it had been raining every day for almost 2 weeks and my landscaper couldn't keep his regular rotation. But the grass had been mowed by the time I received the notice. I have paid my association dues but am not able to use the pool because of my outstanding balance. They set the precedence of including a photo with the violation notices and failed to include one the one time I could dispute it. On principle alone, I will not pay this fine. I'm ready for whatever comes next.

I am writing to express my growing frustration and serious concern regarding the continued failure…read moreof the elevator at 2855 Peachtree Road NE. The elevator repeatedly stops at whatever floor it happens to be on and then emits a loud, continuous beeping sound for an extended and often indeterminate period of time. This issue has persisted for far too long, and despite repeated occurrences, there appears to be no meaningful or permanent resolution. As a resident and owner of a condominium unit in this building, I find the lack of urgency surrounding this matter unacceptable. The constant beeping is disruptive to residents and guests, but the larger issue is that the repeated elevator failures create a significant accessibility and safety concern that directly affects everyone who enters and exits the building. Most troubling is the fact that this elevator serves as the only accessible means of entering and exiting the building. When the elevator is inoperable, individuals with mobility impairments may be effectively denied access to the property. While occasional mechanical failures can occur, the prolonged and recurring nature of this problem raises serious concerns regarding the building's obligation to maintain accessible routes and accessibility features in operable working condition. Because the elevator is the sole accessible point of ingress and egress, these recurring outages raise significant concerns regarding compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and other accessibility requirements. The continued failure to provide reliable access for disabled residents, visitors, service providers, and guests is not a minor inconvenience. It is a critical accessibility issue that warrants immediate attention. In addition, the ongoing failure to maintain this essential building system raises concerns regarding applicable fire, life-safety, building maintenance, and property management obligations. Residents should not be subjected to repeated equipment failures that affect safe access to their homes while receiving little or no communication regarding the cause of the problem, repair efforts, expected resolution, or contingency plans. I would also note that Georgia law imposes duties upon property owners and those responsible for maintaining premises to keep property in repair and address conditions that may create safety risks. See Georgia Code § 44-7-13. The repeated failure of the only accessible entrance to the building, coupled with a lack of permanent corrective action, raises legitimate concerns regarding whether those obligations are being met. The fact that this issue has persisted for so long with no apparent permanent fix is deeply concerning. Building ownership and management have a responsibility to maintain critical infrastructure, particularly when that infrastructure is necessary for accessibility, safety, and lawful access to the property. Accordingly, I request the following: Immediate corrective action to restore reliable elevator service. A detailed explanation of the root cause of these repeated failures. A timeline and status update regarding repairs and preventive maintenance efforts. An explanation of how management intends to provide accessible entry and exit for disabled individuals while the elevator remains unreliable. Confirmation of any measures being taken to ensure compliance with applicable accessibility, safety, and building maintenance requirements. Continued inaction on a matter that directly affects accessibility, safety, and residents' ability to access their homes is unacceptable. I expect a prompt response addressing both the immediate repair efforts and the long-term plan to permanently resolve this issue. Lastly, please note, I have reported this a code violation to the city, insurance commissioner's office, and the local governing body for the ADA Response to owner: so now you have resorted to lying? I have attached our previous email from December 2023, in which we first reported this issue. Furthermore, I spoke with a representative from your company today at 2:15 PM EST who confirmed there is no record of any repair work taking place on-site today. I was present all morning and can confirm that no technicians arrived or performed repairs. Today alone, I was trapped in the elevator twice, first at 8:34 AM and again at 11:42 AM, and placed calls via the internal emergency hotline both times. It is probably wise to check your records before you so blatantly lie in writing on the internet you pretentious sack of sh**t.

I relocated to Georgia from California and thought that buying a home would be the greatest…read moreexperience of my life. My husband and I thought we were in business with the best company for building homes in Georgia. It started off great but in hindsight I realized it was because of our realtor Heather Williams. Now that we have been living in our home for only 6 months we have experienced so many things going wrong with the home. First the outlet to my daughter's bedroom went out and when they came to fix it said it was just a loose wire. Why would there be a loose wire unless it wasn't connected correctly in the beginning. Second, we have realized that flies are getting into our stove vent. Haven't figured out how that happened but realize that other homes with our type of kitchen have the same problem. Third,, our air conditioner is malfunctioning. Lastly, our dishwasher that came with the house didnt work from day one. They sent someone out to fix it and after they left we realized that it still was not working. So, my husband decided to buy the part and fix it himself because waiting for them to come took forever. And that was after, it took forever trying to get somebody to help us. I think it is because they are building the home so quickly that they are not taking pride in their work or stamping these homes with excellence. It is disheartening, upsetting, and just sad.

When we closed we didn't have the stakes like every other home did due to construction running them…read moreover. We ended up getting our property marked; When it was marked we had a huge pile of garbage on our land (dirt/building materials/ and old electrical box). Along with about 15x20 feet that never got sod, yet we payed extra for the land. What we were told BEFORE we closed was that the super intendant up and quit and so did the landscaper so they were in the process of doing the rest of it and never got to it/however we were unaware. So Rick told us (Before we closed)Rick had before we signed any paperwork that Houghston Homes would replace the grass (separate 6x50). Ashley stated they wouldn't replace it due to it not being covered even tho Rick had mentioned it in front of maintenance and our realtor who left us. Next time landscapers came to install the sod in the neighbors house they took the dead grass out without my knowledge but never replaced what they took out. To this day the best Houghston Homes could do was a small bag of seed. We currently have 21x70 of our land that should've had sod layed. This is sad because landscapers just toss the extra wherever the hell they want if they have extra.

My mom was there for 6 months. I found some staff members to be outstanding and go the extra mile…read more Many were very kind. However, there was a significant staff turnover and I think that had a negative impact on the quality of care. My mom was a higher functioning memory care resident and really got lost in the shuffle because her needs were not as great as other residents. She spent most of her time in her room. When I suggested that they could perhaps do more engagement activities that would be suitable for people at her level, the senior management person I spoke with suggested that I consider hiring a caregiver so she could get more attention. I also agree that the food was pretty bad. I moved my mom to a much smaller place that is not as aesthetically pleasing, but where the staff has really gotten to know my mom. The food is better, the room is bigger, the price is cheaper, and most importantly, I don't worry about whether my mom is well cared for when I am out of town.

But let me tell you, they will not even do the bare minimum that is part of the rental contract because they are always "under-staffed".

Several occasions they lost our family members medications and spent days trying to locate them while she was left without her diabetic monitors among other crucial medications. And you will be charged a ridiculous amount for a "care plan" and within weeks to months they will do another assessment without any communication and double the monthly care plan, this is how they make their money. Charging lower rent and ridiculous amounts for "care plans" that are bogus and unwarranted.
