I wanted to thank Amy with all the help she has given me with the new package room. She has been amazing with any questions I had. Give the office a call with questions and they will give you an answer in a timely manner.

                    Its fine. The community is okay I guess although I will say I think it is a bit expensive. Maintenance usually comes pretty fast but this past time it took a few days. It is generally pretty quiet except when the neighbors baby is yelling.

                            I'm sorry to hear you've had so many issues recently. This past winter was brutal, but we did what we could to combat the elements. If there were any areas not salted or cleared off properly we do apologize about that and will work to do better next year. It's concerning to hear a service technician may be unhelpful. We expect all associates to be kind, courteous, and helpful, so we'd like to talk to you to get more information about that. If it's something we genuinely can't help with that should be communicated to you properly. Please stop by the office, give us a call at 440-582-8215, or email us at residenthep@jvmrealty.com.

                                    Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, though I'm sorry you haven't been fully satisfied at Dover Farms. I spoke to the Community Manager, Vanessa, who is familiar with the situation and said she has talked to you about this. If you'd like to discuss anything further, or want some more information she's more than happy to talk to you again. Our monthly rent is due on the first of the month, and that is stated in each lease. To my knowledge, no due dates or other payment information has changed in at least several years. Vanessa indicated you recently transferred into a new apartment within the community, which may be where some of the confusion came from. If that's the case and we weren't as communicative as we always try to be, I am sorry, and we can answer any questions you may have. She also mentioned that there were a few issues in the new apartment when you moved in, which again I'm sorry about, but that we were able to get a service associate out to take care of them as soon as possible. If you're still experiencing any issues please let us know so we can address them right away. Regarding the community issues you mentioned, we check the fitness center every morning and no machines are out of order at this time. Now that warmer weather is finally here we'll be able to focus more on the grounds and we'll make sure to repair any sidewalks that need some work. If there's anything else that you'd like to discuss please either stop by the office, give us a call at 440-582-8215, or email us at residenthelp@jvmrealty.com.

                                            Awesome community- safe, quiet, and great value. I've enjoyed my stay at Dover Farms and would recommend them to anyone considering renting a nice apartment. The service has been great and the front office staff even better.

                                                    Thank you for your review, though I'm sorry to hear you've had so many issues at Dover Farms. We went through all open or recently closed work orders and can't seem to find any that fit your description of the smell coming from the refrigerator. We always do our best to resolve all issues in a timely manner (typically within 24-48 hours). Please resubmit a work order via Active Building so we can keep an eye out for it and track it. You can also stop by the office, give us a call at 440-582-8215, or email us at residenthelp@jvmrealty.com to make sure it gets taken care of as soon as possible. We can also address any other issues you may have with your apartment as well. Regarding the snow removal, we did our best to keep up with the heavy snow that came recently. With the storm producing 1 to 1.5 inches per hour, there wasn't all that much we could do while it was snowing, but our team did what they could while it was still coming down then quickly worked to clear sidewalks and driveways once it let up. We did receive quite a bit of good feedback from residents, but if there are any areas that still need attention please let us know so we can address it as quickly as possible. We would like the opportunity to correct any outstanding issues you may be experiencing. Even if you do decide to move out once your lease is up the least we can do is make the rest of your stay with us more enjoyable.
