I have lived at this complex for 2 years starting in 2003. I renewed my lease right before MBS bought the protperty from Archstone. I have had maintenance requests go unattened for over 3 weeks. Trash not being picked up on regular basis. Gates continually broken. Water, sewer and trash fees doubled when MBS took over. There has been at least one robbery since MBS took over, while I can't directly attribute this to management it does make me wonder that if Archstone was still in charge this might not of happened. Management does not care and will not work with the residents. I have never been this frustrated and infuriated with any of the half dozen complexes that I have lived in. MBS is a horrible company. Their corporate offices have been picketted here in Houston by residents from several of their properties. When Archstone was the management company my room mate and I had no issues whatsoever, infact it was a joy to live here. From day one when MBS took over, it has been hell. DO NOT MOVE HERE.

are you just retarded, no matter who manages the property or how much security you think you should have you live in houston and if they want it bad enough gates and codes are not going to stop them from getting it..Remember thieves do this for a living. and they see it as a nice property with good stuff to take. You can be robbed at a grocery store or the mall. They dont care.

heh, speaking of retards.. A deterrent to crime is coded gates, alarm systems, locked doors and dead bolts. It's obvious that a criminal can circumvent any of these if they really want to. An open gate is an invitation to a criminal. I pay for locked, coded gates with my rent check every month. As I stated previously, there were no criminal incidents in the two years when Archstone managed(with working gates). MBS took over and gave a rats ass if the gates worked or not for weeks on end. It is pretty easy to see the two issues connected. Get off your knees for MBS you asstastic MBS fanboi.
