La Privada Went Condo!

From: -Anonymous-
Date posted: 2/19/2006
Years at this apartment: 2000 - 2006

 
We've lived here for almost 6 years and are moving out because our lease is up and they've gone condo. The good things have been (in our opinion) 1. It's quiet because the construction is block, not chicken wire with blown on stucco like so many apartments are here in Scottsdale. 2. It's a 'roomy' complex. Apartments aren't squished together, they're laid out nicely. 1 car gets covered parking but always enough extra parking for 2nd car very close to apartment. Office staff through the years have ALWAYS been attentive and tried to fix (no matter how minute the problem). The staff was always polite (even if they called us names when we walked out, we didn't know!)
The drawbacks to this complex is the cheap vinyl flooring and thin carpeting with no apparent padding! Kitchen cabinets are the cheapest crap I've ever seen, not real wood (fake woodgrain look that peels & chips).
Not important now because new owners can redo. White enamel painted block wall - spare me!
Landscaping changes from year to year. The first landscapers in 2000 were EXCELLENT. They let them go and the place has never looked the same. Hopefully they will realize this is of major importance to this very heavily landscaped complex. Very green with big mature trees are WONDERFUL if taken care of properly.
Any rules people have complained about in this forum I never had problems with. If you let one person hang a shade thing up, the next person wants to enclose the whole thing with screen and windchimes, little birds and the next thing you know, the place looks like a joke. (Better to hang a shade screen inside the room).
I rate these 5 years all in all VERY GOOD for apartment living.
