Excellent Management and Maintenance Crew
I had an unexpected emergey a few months ago and needed repairs quickly - Justin, Lester, Vinny and Marco were exceptional with their response time and help with this repair. Vinny did a stellar job assessing the damage with care and attention.and fixed it within a day. Very happy to call Essex Gardens my home. It is a nice community and very convenient location.
