When my husband and I started discussing moving to Austin we checked out several apartment communities. For the price, we felt like this place had the best deal as far as sq. footage and amenities. We have been here a whole month and there are some things that are very hard to adjust to 1) parking is virtually non-existant, it looks ample but there are so many residents that if it is after 7pm...plan on hiking to your apartment. 2) NOTHING gets fixed, in less than a month our garbage disposal has broken twice, they never came to fix the sinks, the light fixtures, or inspect anything we listed on our move in inspection sheet--despite multiple requests. 3) We were here a week and ants took over (we are not on a ground floor)--they ended up spraying our apartment 3x in 2 wks b/c they didn't know where they were coming from. 4) Leasing agent lied to us upfront about average utility costs and average childcare costs for the Austin area..yes that burden lies mostly on me for not thoroughly researching what I was told, but I didn't intend on being completely misguided either. On the plus side--it is very beautifully maintained (landscaping), the pools are maintained decently (kids break a lot of the lawn chairs it seems); and they do seem to try to have resident appreciation days and activities at the club house pretty frequently. I have not been in an apartment for a while, so these may all be minor things that everyone deals with. I won't say for a minute that I hate the community...I am just thinking for the price that we pay--I would like to feel like I am getting my money's worth. Also, what's up with someone being dead in the parking lot'' No one mentioned that to us'!'!'
