I feel I must now update my own previous review "Taking the Stand" of Alexan Terrace Apts. Midtown. As of July 01, 2005 Gables Prop. Mgmt. has taken over this complex and in the last 35 days has taken this excellent community and turned it into a slum. This conclusion is not taken lightly and is apparent to all residents I have spoken with. The new staff are simply arrogant and completely unresponsive to the tenants; while the maintenance staff resemble thugs who you would not wish to invite into your home. The prevailing consensus opinion is that everyone I have spoken with would not renew their lease under the present conditons and that includes the Accenture corporate apartments. If things do not shape up and fast, a mass exodus from this property will be seen over the next 6 months; and the homeless citizens who loiter around will be living here! Gables has definitely lived up to their reputation!

Several things did change when Gables Residential took over. Our property went from 80% occupied to 95% occupied in three months. Our wonderful Gables reputation, outstanding staff, and current residents all played a huge role in this success.

Our residents are very happy with this community and we have several daily visitors just to say hello! We understand that with change we can't make everyone happy and welcome anyone to come into the office with any concerns that they may have.

Our renewal ratio averages 77% by our previous residents. All Corporate Apartments have renewed with our community for tweleve months.

We are concerned that you feel this way and hope that you can come into our office and address your concerns with us.

Thank you,
Alexan Terrace

Great. Please return to Alpharetta, etc., and leave intown living to those of us who know what it entails, and who do not expect it to change only because we are gracing the slums with our presence.

It is terrible that you think Alexan Terrace is a slum, this is a wonderful place to live!

Sure, we have car breakins, black people partying all hours, and drug deals out of the ground floor units... this is what makes a great apartment community... choices!

Thank you,
