Pain in the A**!

Where do I start. I've lived her for a few years and since new management has taken over, it's been a living hell. When Keelty managed the property, I would call for repairs or to have my unit sprayed for ants. Someone was sent out, either the same day or the day after. I've had times where maintenance would come and say that they don't SEE nothing wrong, but still repaired whatever it was. With new management, it's been like talking to a two year old. I rather not go into specific details of all the problems that I have had and still are having, but one would think because the rent has increased nearly $100, you would never have a problem with getting repairs, upgrades or extermination. The parking is horrible. If you work the second shift, when returning home, you have to park up the street and around the corner from wherever you live, I've never seen a basketball court and as for the tennis court, when I first moved here, there wasn't any nets. They do have a nice pool. Wow! Not!
My advice before moving anywhere and before siging anything, do your research, find out the history of the property and are they planning on doing any upgrades, ask if you could see an actual lived in unit and if they say no or make an excuse look out, visit all of the different rental properties in the area and compare everything, ask about lease agreements and if they offer month-to-month after one year and no matter what, READ YOUR LEASE, UNDERSTAND ALL PARTS OF YOUR LEASE, AND DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE SIGNING ANYTHING. To be on the safe side, take a second pair of eyes. This person my be able to spot something you missed.
Overall, for me, because of new management, things have definitely changed for the worse.
