Terrible Management

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience at this apartment community was extremely disappointing from move-in to move-out.

When I moved in, there were several maintenance issues that were never properly addressed. The flooring was already peeling, there was damage to the door, and damage in the garage. I was simply told to note these issues on my move-in inspection sheet rather than having them repaired. Throughout my residency, I also dealt with a leaking dishwasher, leaking sink,...
and other water-related maintenance concerns that were either poorly repaired or not fully resolved.

Communication with management was another major issue. Emails often went unanswered, and it was difficult to get responses from the office when concerns were raised.

The most frustrating part came after move-out. I left the apartment in excellent condition, aside from normal wear and tear, and even provided photos documenting the condition of the unit. Despite this, I was not refunded my full security deposit. After multiple attempts to discuss the charges, I received very little communication. At one point, the Assistant Property Manager agreed to refund an additional $100, only to later send another email stating that upper management had denied it and that there was nothing more they would do.

Overall, the lack of maintenance, poor communication, and handling of my security deposit left a very negative impression. I would not recommend this property based on my experience.

Besides issues with dog owners not being responsible, it’s a great place to live! Management needs to enforce rules and fine repeat offenders. Cameras should be installed
