                  Staff don't seem to be very attentive, other than email contact. Maintenance requests so far have not been addressed. Tenants do not seem to pick up after their dogs, as waste bags aren't available on the property. Some tenants keep trash on their front porches.

                                                  We apologize that you have had a bad experience. We hope that we can change that moving forward. Yes, there were some scheduling issues last month when a main-line backed up and we had to wait for a professional plumber to address the problem. It is now permanently fixed. Please call us to schedule time to address any other concerns you may have, as we don't want them to be in-noticed, 512-447-6696. Thank you.
