I regret signing the lease
There are not many 3 bedroom apartments available in the area so I thought this would be worth it. I was wrong.
I moved in less than a month ago and twice now I've been without A/C for 6+ consecutive days. The fact that we are several days into an extreme heat warning hasn't been enough to get the maintenance team moving on this. Yesterday they told me they came by three times but I wasn't home to let them in. Of course I wasn't there, it was over 90 degrees inside, so I gave them permission to... enter without me. Not once did they try to contact me by phone or email, just a knock at the door of a sauna.
Communication with management is virtually non-existent except when they are asking for money that I didn't actually owe. Each time I reach out I get lies and excuses. They want immediate notification of mold, which I gave on my initial inspection report, and then followed up on 2 weeks later. It still hasn't been addressed. The laundry list of items I noted in my initial inspection was moved from open status to cancelled today without the work being done. Why? I have no idea. There is no communication!
If you're looking to move in, you're going to have to accept the apartment "as is" and hope nothing goes wrong. I'd look somewhere else.
The management response will certainly say they want the opportunity to address my concerns. What a joke. I've tried to address my concerns, but it all falls on deaf ears.
