Peters Family Partnership

I decided to rent with Peter's family Partnership considering it's "family owned" and thought that would reflect in the quality of the rental property on Packerland drive. I soon found this to be further from the truth and had a bad experience nearly from day one. In the bathroom, dirt was literally falling out of the fan onto the floor in chunks and even hit me on the head. I was unaware my apt was above the boiler room. All winter my heat was OFF and I still had to open window's to keep… comfortable in the main living area. This scenario caused my daughter's room to become cold late into the night. The hallways were always dirty. Walls, carpets, window's, every common area was dirty. The dryers do t cry your clothes. The carpet trim/transition in my apt was raised and sharp I had to constantly make a conscious effort to avoid stepping on it as it hurt if stepped on. My daughter tripped and hit her face on the trim causing her extreme pain. My son also slipped and hit his mouth on this carpet trim and busted his lip open. I called the Landlord to inform them of continuous injuries and the owners said they would not replace it that I would have pay for it personally. There was a cockroach issue in another apartment confirmed to be true when I questioned the property management after hearing of this from another tennant. Other tennents were seen looking into my windows as i lived on 1st floor. There is no guest parking allowed whatsoever even though once I counted approx 15 open unassigned spots. They parking police will ticket no exceptions.
I had a major surgery and asked for a temporary pass because my mother was coming over to help me while I healed. That was refused. My parents are elderly and I was told they had to park on Trojan drive and walk over (my dad at the time could barley walk) or give them my pass and I park elsewhere. Some of my messages to the Maintenance lady were ignored. Almost all of the above issues were unable or refused to be remedied. They took over half of my security deposit upon departure for things that were not even dirty or broken.

The biggest advantage to this building is the location and price. It's an affordable place to live and you can easily walk to the store or NWTC. The only problem with management is that they often do not know what to do and get confused very easily; however when we needed a new air conditioner we had one the next day. The place also isn't the cleanest or nicest looking, but if you're looking for a place to live for a couple years it isn't that bad.
