RUDE/ DISHONEST MANAGEMENT

From: shvaga
Date posted: 11/25/2003
Years at this apartment: 2003 - 2004
 
LET THE CONSUMER BEWARE.... THIS PLACE IS NOT ALL WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE. WHEN YOU FIRST MOVE IN THE OFFICE STAFF IS MORE THAN WILLING TO PROMISE YOU THE MOON AND THE STARS TO GET YOU TO SIGN THE LEASE! BUT WHEN YOU MOVE IN IT IS A WHOLE OTHER STORY.
THESE APARTMENTS ARE OLD, DARK, AND NEED A LOT OF WORK BUT ARE LOCATED IN A NICE AREA NEXT TO THE WATER. THE ONLY PLUS IS THERE IS A GREAT WALKING TRAIL IF YOUR HAVE PETS. THE SERVICE IS EXTREMLY AWFUL. IF AN APPLIANCE BREAKS THEY WILL NEVER REPLACE IT. I WAS LEFT ONE WEEK WITHOUT A WASHER BECAUSE THEY WERE WAITING FOR PARTS.. THERE IS TONS OF ANTS AND MOLD NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU CLEAN.
MANAGEMENT IS RUDE AND WILL ALWAYS MAKE EXCUSES WHY SERVICE DOES NOT GET DONE.I AGREE WITH THE REST OF THE VIEWERS, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO TAKE ANY CONCERNS TO THE MANAGER SHE IS NEVER AROUND AND IS ALWAYS IN MEETINGS.
WHEN OUR LEASE WAS UP I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD TO SIGN ON FOR AT LEAST SIX MORE MONTHS TO GET OUR OLD RATE. THIS IS THE FIRST COMPLEX I HAVE EVER LIVED AT THAT RAISES PRICES AFTER YOU HAVE COMPLETED YOUR INTIAL YEAR. WE ARE VERY GOOD RESIDENTS, ALWAYS PAID ON TIME, AND WE WERE REWARDED BY GETTING A HUGE INCREASE OF ABOUT $150 FOR A MONTHLY RATE. NORMALLY I WOULD SIGN A 6 MONTH LEASE BUT THERE WAS A CHANCE I WAS GOING TO BE RELOCATED AT MY JOB. SO BASICALLY I WAS LEFT WITH NO OPTIONS. I AM LEAVING SCHOONER BAY AND I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED. THE MARKET AND ECONOMY IS GOING DOWN THERFORE RENTS SHOULD TOO. THIS COMPANY IS VERY IGNORANT! IF THEY JUST DID THEIR HOMEWORK THEY WILL FIND THAT THERE IS TONS OF COMPETITION WHO WILL ACCOMIDATE MY NEEDS.
MY ADVICE TO ALL IS SHOP SHOP SHOP. THERE IS A LOT MORE APARTMENTS WHO HAVE NICER UNITS WITH BETTER DEALS. REALLY THINK TWICE BEFORE SETTLING HERE. I WOULD NOT ADVISE ANYONE TO LIVE HERE.
