Do not live here

From: -Anonymous-
Date posted: 8/16/2007
Years at this apartment: 2006 - 2007
 
After living in the place for one year, the noise from the parking lot (i.e. car alarms, loud talking, occasional fighting) and the noise from the apartments (i.e. dogs barking, loud music, and loud televisions) along with the incredibly loud central heating/cooling units located outside of all of the units' bedroom windows and the poor quality of materials used to build the apartment complex and the aggressive and rude property managers all served as the catalyst for me to find another place to live. Indeed, I found a great place to live and a great landlord.

What is interesting is that within a one year time frame, this property company went through 3 different managers; and, without question, it went from bad to worse. The current manager, for lack of better words, is cold, calculating, rude, and inconsiderate; unfortunately for the tenants, she is unconcerned with them and is more concerned about the bottomline. For instance, even though when I moved into the place there were several light bulbs missing and I replaced them myself, she made me pay her several dollars for the ones that burned out prior to my move out date (bear in mind my current manager at my new place takes care of all those details...).

By the way, I forgot to mention that the current property manager at Cambridge kept my deposit of $650 because of a tricky little clause in the lease agreement, which seemingly is designed to extract as much money as the company can from the tenant. Simply put, there are plenty of places to live in Athens, so I strongly recommend that you live in another complex. I am a professional person, and I have lived in many different cities in many different complexes. This experience by far was the worst. In short, Cambridge Square is not worth your energy or your time or your money. Also, keep in mind that some of the reviews on this site with higher ratings (5.0) are written by the property management team.
