Resident ā€¢ 2013

9/12/2013

100% Honest Feedback from resident of less than one year Neighborhood is quiet. There are a lot of Middle Easterns that live here, so don't expect it to be a social community. Rent is reasonable but the air conditioning will cost you a lot. For my 2 bed 2 bath I pay $150 monthly and keep it at 78* any other complex with an energy efficient unit would be about $80. If considering this place add to whatever rent they give you $80 additional dollars---that is the extra money you would pump into cooling a month here versus any other complex. Although my rent is $940 I pay $1009 and that includes water and trash. Quality of the apartment: I have a non-renovated unit. When I moved in there was a huge un-removeable stain on the counter. The toilet didn't flush properly. There are knots in the subfloor that you can feel when walking on the carpet--the carpet is not plush or cushiony in the least bit. The oven door does not close/seal properly so when cooking the temperature goes up about 5 degrees-which doesn't help my costs. Also the water smells funny here. When confronting the apartment complex requested a water test to ensure the water is safe for drinking. I was refused and was told that the water is safe for drinking. Maintenance and management also came and smelled my water and agreed it smelled "weird." I believe the smell is natural gas leak into the water line, so I drink bottled water. Its very noticeable whenever you run the sink and especially shower. When I first moved in my hair was getting greasy AFTER showering but has now seem to adjusted--but the water still smells and management still refuses to test the water. Cobb County water will not come out and test at my cost because I do not own the property-so I have to be stuck in my lease and deal with it. Bugs: There are bugs here. I wouldn't say an abnormal amount because it is a wooded area. My cat has caught at least 10 water bugs since I've lived here (about an inch big each) and I've lived here for about 4 months. Also I live on the second floor which may help with bugs, but you do see these waterbugs crawling around everywhere outside at night--so it has nothing to do with how clean your apartment is--they will find their way in. I think people are mistaking them for roaches--but they are not roaches. Exterior Maintenance: They do not power wash anything so there are spider webs everywhere and what looks like garbage stains all over the concrete by my door (and not from me). They do not maintain the property. The pool inside the gates is ALWAYS dirty and un-usable because it has so much bugs, dirt and debris in the pool. Customer Service: As I said they refused to test the water even though maintenance and manage both agreed it smelled weird. I was forced to resort to drinking and cooking with bottled water with fear of ingesting natural gas. The property is not maintained. The interior is cheaply done and they do the minimum to keep it liveable and able to get in the 900s for rent. Positive: Spacious apartments and reasonable rent--however air conditioning is expensive here and needs to be taken into consideration for future renters Safety: Not well lit by the trash and recyclables---the lights will also shine into your windows so you will need shades if you don't like light in your room when sleeping. Have not heard of too many incidents. There is a courtesy officer or a police officer that lives in the community a few apartments down. I don't seem to otherwise see any patrol of the neighborhood and I don't see or hear where I am of any domestics and disturbances. Overall there are some major issues with this apartment complex that need to be addressed and you should not consider leaving here. Do yourself a favor and live anywhere else.
