My AC has been broken now for 5 months. It leaks water from the cage in 2-4 spots at a time. I spend my nights listening to a constant drip. I didn't sign up for little apartment on the prairie!! I have had maintanence come out 5 TIMES to "fix" the problem...before and after the so called New Managament. They come out and put a band-aid over the problem each time because they are too cheap to actually replace the unit. I pay $1100 a month to change a bowl full of water. My carpet is soaked and it stinks! I have to turn my ac off during the day so i don't come home to a flash flood. Instead I come home to a blow dryer. Hmmmm...the perks keep getting greater! My lease is up in September and I feel for the tenants who move in after me. I bequeath my bowl collection to you. They will never fix these problems...there is a reason they only charge a $300 deposit and take your application in good faith.....buyer beware!!!!!

I have experienced the same BS. My dog was in the apartment while I was at work and was nearly killed because the A/C unit they tried to fix 6 times finally died and my dog was sweating in 100% temps. You know what they told me "sorry, shouldn't have left your dog in the apartment". What the hell am I supposed to do, hire a dog sitter, put him out on the 4'x2' patio, take him to work with me. Never live here, they take the money from your rent and send it overseas to sweat labor in china.

Scottsdale ------- pigs wallowing in money of renters and not fixing things deserve to be locked up in Arpaio's jail. Cave Creek and Carefree are much better.
