You take the good with the bad!

First of all, no place is perfect.

That's a given.

Second of all, everyone has the right to their own opinions.

However good or bad they may be.



I've been in the Fairways for 4 years now.

I've been in 2 apartments and I'm looking to upgrade once again.

Yes, the management previous to the new owners stunk.

They did maintain the grounds to a certain extent (grass/flowers) but the pavement , tennis courts etc need a lot more help.

I heard they are renovating the tennis courts this week and I've noticed the pavement needs being addressed.



In the first apartment I did have a mold and ant issue.

However, if you call maintenance they are usually very quick and willing to look at any issue you may have.

It is your job to write down the problems you see with the apartment before you move in.

99% of ours were fixed the very next day.

Don't be upset with them if you neglect to assist in the inspection of the apartment.

They've done a lot of work for us...

replaced carpets, linoleum, blinds, cleared clogs, reset the heat on our oven, fixed garbage disposals, painted walls and ceilings, replaced closet doors...

I'm sure there's more but you probably get the point.



Now I've learned that they have newly renovated apartments that are sooooo much nicer than the older ones.

Looked into that today, and for what they provide you it's definitely worth the money.



I've lucked out with neigbors.

I happen to live in a building with many kids but it's always quiet at night time.

If you work 9am-6pm like I do you won't have much of a problem, unless you have a really obnoxious neigbhor.

Then you need to confront them or either management.

Don't be scared to do this.



So all in all it's a very nice place to live.

Management has stepped up and many new things are happening.

For first time renters this is a great start if you can afford it.

Take a look yourself! They do give tours! You can't go completely on heresay!
