In the 6 years I lived here(2000-2006)mgmt has changed, and this is the worst I have encountered in over 30 yrs renting apts! The new company from CA "fixed up" some things like tearing out healthy bushes and planting ones that mostly died within weeks, nailed frames around windows using improper nails causing the cheap wood to split (meanwhile the seal around the windows is so old and cracked a child could peel it off and remove your windowglass!), they painted over pealing paint and decaying wood so that it only looked good for a couple of weeks, and several other cheap & quick superficial attempts to make the property look like it was worth the high prices they were about to impose! Other problems were the a/c has gone out every summer and takes days to get fixed or even to get a response to a maint. call of any kind. My used dishwasher went out a few months ago, it took nearly 2 months to get a reponse to my written request, and was replaced by a filthy dirty used model taken from a vacant apt & since my rent was raised from $700 to $740/mo for a 2 bdrm, this was the final straw in deciding to move. They only let you sign 6 mo leases now so the rent can be raised and it was going to $780 on the next lease, $820 on the next...way too high for an old, run down, poorly managed apt complex. It used to be quieter and cleaner but now garbage is thrown all over, loud voices and music can be heard up to 3-4 am, damage from residents can be found all over i.e. someone set fire to one of the palm trees put in this year! There's a car in the parking lot with flat tires and graffitti written in the thick dust and appears to have been abandoned for months. Drain splash guards are backwards and breed mosquitos even though I reported this problem 3 times!
There is more parking now because so many long time residents have moved since things have deteriorated and the rent jumped up so excessively. Plus there has been more crime like car & apt break-ins & damaged cars.
This mgmt does not care about anything but your money...look elsewhere for a decent apt. Better yet buy a house for the same money they are getting ready to charge, that's what I did.
