I have lived here in a townhouse for 9 years, (my own fault). I was in one of the apartments for 2…read moreyears before this which was in my son's name. I was there between flights while working. This is honestly THE WORST place I have ever lived in my life. The only reason I came here in the beginning is because Pebble Creek was full at the time. Little did I know what I would encounter and now I simply cannot deal with anymore. It's all I can take. There has been NO upkeep to this place in 9 years. I have a sliding door that doesn't lock and been this way 4 or 5 years. Maintenance comes and tweeks it with a screw driver and done this 3 or 4 different times, however never stays. Sliding door in the winter feels like you're pulling over 50 lbs because it's from the 1970s. Paint peeling off the walls, carpet coming up at the doorways, front door will not stay shut if it isn't locked because it won't latch, front door looks worse than the Projects but at least the government keeps them up. The rotten wood facing was painted, not sure why and it's now chipping away. This is all so sad and Bent Tree boasts with a sign about award winning property??? Shrubs are not trimmed in a timely manner and looks terrible not to mention the fact that they hurt your body when touched and letting them get too close to door causes pain when you have to get past them. Water heater blew up last week and it had to be replaced, (that couldn't be left with water running out so I caught it before it flooded the carpet. This kind of thing happens in all places. Glad I was here or it would have been really bad. They used a shop vac to get the water up at the area wet and gave me a fan to use to dry which it did. Left a small grease spot on the carpet but this is trivial by comparison. It is outrageous the incompetence of this company. You have been through 3 or 4 managers since I've been here. You just keep hiring losers. As far as maintenance goes, there is the only one here who really knows what he's doing. Everything gets a band-aid here and this is unacceptable. The manager here had scheduled someone to clean the spot in front of the heater mishap and the timing wasn't acceptable due to a doctor's appointment. We discussed it and decided the next Thursday would be good between 10-12 PM. Now here it is Thursday, 9/21/2017 and I've moved everything so carpet cleaner can do his job quickly and then they tell me it's the 28th, however I wasn't called back to tell me this even though the manager would argue that she did. Never happened. I cannot change appointments again and I will not have someone I do not know in here around my personal belongings. I have tried to take care of everything the best I can with no upgrades at all. It's very depressing to say the least. The new manager hired is still learning I suppose what a mess this place is and I suspect the owner has a lot to do with it. Frugal is one thing but cheap and greedy is another. They come here and put a piece on the faucets that sprays and doesn't run so therefore it uses less water which I'm sure was what the owner wanted but it splatters all the way to the floor and makes a terrible mess, constantly wiping down everything (unless you turn it down like an airplane lavatory). There is so much more but I doubt if this will matter anyway. Just keep renting to the unsavory people you have been and the good ones will leave. Police are here at least once a week. I just don't feel safe anymore here or comfortable in anyway. Management is unacceptable. It isn't just me. I won't call maintenance on weekends unless a dire emergency. I try to be considerate to their life as well. I've tried to put up with it and lasted longer than most smart people. It's difficult to have to move, all the packing and expense . I had a melt down today with the manager. I yelled at her because she tried to defend her mistake. She did not tell me the correct carpet cleaning date and I know this for a fact, no email regarding it or any communication as a business should do.. I cancelled appointment and moved things. Not thinking much of F&W right now and for a long time. Just kept hoping it would get better. Doesn't look like this will happen so I will be leaving in the not too distant future. Good luck trying to rent units because my google review will make them run. Sorry it has to be this way but I have never had to encounter such things as I have here. Yes, I will wrap up this masterpiece for now.

I've spent my energy, money, and time meeting with Karen and exchanging documents for her to help…read morewith the sale of my property. Karen Kryzanowsky whom was supposed to be marketing and selling my property for the past 18+ months couldn't even send me the correct address and listing for my property when I questioned her about it last week. When I asked as to why I have NOT received a single offer over 18+ months of being in business with Karen, Karen gave excuses to why my property wasn't receiving interest. I simply asked to see the listing which I could NOT find on any search I made. Karen insisted she could see it. However, when I used common search engines to see my property listing, the listing was nowhere to be found. I made recommendations to help market the property on multiple commonly known real estate websites. Karen insisted it already was being automatically marketed on those same websites I recommended from the time she listed it on the MLS. It was NOT. When Karen finally showed me the property she could see but I could NOT, it was the wrong address being marketed by a completely different agent. Since this incident, I have neglected to work with Karen and plain and simple, if you would like for your property to actually be listed and marketed, I would NOT recommend Karen to anyone in search for Real Estate guidance or services.

They informed my boyfriend he can still move in ALONE and initially I told him no but then I thought about it and told him he can go ahead and get the place for himself. I was in the process of looking for my own place alone. He told me he applied again and asked if I could check on his application because of his work schedule he cannot contact them. So I contacted them and was informed by customer service they would forward the questions and ask the office for an update. Today my boyfriend received a NASTY and unprofessional email. Stating for his co-applicant to stop contacting them about his application because I was rejected. In the message they made sure to make it clear that I cannot move in with him which I already knew. I will be contacting the better business bureau because this business needs to be reported for their unprofessional behavior. I work in corporate and know this is not how you handle matters in a professional way.
