Outstanding New Ownership/Management

Years at this apartment: 1994 - 2007
 
I have lived here for over 20 years. Since purchasing this property in late April 2006, the new owner has plowed a small fortune into it. The former owner (ETKIN) ran this place into the ground. This is now more of a living community now rather than a hole in the wall in which to live. The office staff is very friendly, efficient, pleasing to speak with and treat you as extended family rather than an inconvenience. The owner himself is often on site and takes a hands on approach to all facets of the operation and not only looks forward to our input but acts on it. The maintenance is FIRST RATE as issues are immediately addressed and competently performed by a certified and knowledgeable crew. New cameras and lighting along with a security guard help to ensure one's safety at night as well as the protection of our vehicles. The building and grounds have both undergone extensive renovation and are very asthetically pleasing. There are over five acres of beautifully landscaped land behidn the building with playground equipment, picnic tables and grills that provides the leisurely intimacy of a small park. The outdoor pool is very well maintained. Recently installed amenities such as Wireless Internet, a beautiful library, a first rate fitness center and a redecorated lobby which has supple leather furniture you can sink into while enjoying conversations with your neighbors. Willow Park Apartments (former name) was a dump. THE FRANKLIN is a delight! These units are also very large in square footage compared to what's out there. A great value and worth the money! The Franklin is a rare Class Act in an industry that traditionally seeks to maximize profits while warehousing its residents.
