Very poor management, moldy, damp apartments

From: -Anonymous-
Date posted: 4/30/2003
Years at this apartment: 2000 - 2001
 
The apartments in Southwind are very moldy and damp, and when I complained about this, the management basically laughed it off, ignoring the complaint. The apartments all had a moldy smell to them and the carpets literally were discolored due to the large amount of condensation. I had to towel off my sliding glass door every day, sometimes several times, and peel the mold out of the runner at the bottom of the door!
When I lived in Southwind, Amanda, the manager repeatedly attempted to "set up" her residents with others, against their will, then bad-mouthed the residents who chose not to take her "match making offer" to other residents (this was discussed among the residents!). Upon moving out, she claimed I had damaged some paint in my apartment and chose to drastically reduce my deposit return. I absolutely did not damage any part of that apartment - I was robbed, and I told her that. That is ok because she was irresponsible enough to lose my rent check one month, so that made up the difference!!She often made crude comments to residents and took things very personally, to the point that she would make life very difficult for those residents who didn't "kiss up" to her.
I would highly recommend looking elsewhere - this management simply cannot be trusted and life is very difficult living under the present management.
