It was once nice, but is now a dump!

My wife and I moved in when the Verandah was brand new, and it was a paradise! But, it was sold to new owners, and the new management is extremely poor and unprofessional. A vent on the side of my building was broken, and wasps built a nest in it, and it literally took 4 weeks (of me hounding them) for them to get to it, and finally, instead of killing the wasps and replacing the vent cover with a new one, they sprayed expanding foam insulation into it and it dripped all down the side of the building. It looked totally disgusting. The breezways are filthy, with black mold, water spots, and peeling paint everywhere. The once incredible acapulco style pool is now filthy. Nothing is kept up. Parking is not enforced. They used to be selective, but now they rent to anyone, and loud parties and loud noise on the weekends (and even during some week nights) is now the norm. People park anywhere (including handicap spots) and parking rules are no longer enforced. This place went downhill very fast, and I now consider it a real dump!
