Emerald Point

Do NOT move in here. From: -Anonymous- Date posted: 5/9/2008 Years at this apartment: 2005 - 2008 3 responses   I've lived in this apartment for 3 years. We moved in and immediately we noticed the plumbing is bad. The toilets don't flush ever and we've had to call maintenance out over 100 times literally since we moved in. Our door knobs have snapped off, our AC broke and soaked our whole floor, leaving the floor boards under the carpets up. All they did was give us a fan to dry it up until they got out to it. Our hot water heater busted, leaving one of my bedrooms flooded until they say convenient to fix it. Our kitchen sink knobs snapped off and it took them 2 weeks to fix it. Recently, the sink broke AGAIN and it took them 2 weeks to fix that. They said the pipes were clogged which makes no sense seeing as I took the pipes apart and there were nothing in them. On the side of the building, we have sewage and they have yet to fix that. The AC freezes up so much it's to the point we don't even bother anymore. The electrical outlets are so loose your cords just fall out. There's only 2 cable hook ups. The master and the living room. Only one phone hook up because the wiring is so old. We had a bedroom window SHATTER just opening it and they said it was a non-opening window yet it had locks' The laundry rooms are dirty, not kept up, gang vandalism all over the walls. Do NOT bother doing your laundry there because it's like washing your clothes in bugs and filth. The water from the laundry room backs up outside and into the floor of the building itself. We've had our rent raised 200 bucks at a time when it's not even worth it. They tow your cars without warning and tell you there is nothing that they can do. The parks are ill kept, the slides itself seem dangerous and I wouldn't recommend letting your kids on it. Drug dealers all around the area. There's always glass busted in the parking lots and other paved areas. The hallways of the general apartments always smell horrid. The mail boxes break so easily and are so small that they practically rip your mail shoving it in the box. When the pools are open, they decide when they want staff to be there and open it or not. Our ceiling lights. One of the sockets are shot and you can't use it, so the lighting in the room is dull without lamps. We had termites on our walls and they came in after like a week to fix it. The people upstairs complained about the termite problem because the termites were destroying their stuff so the apartment management KICKED THEM OUT. Once they moved out, new people continuously move in. They jump and make banging noises all day long. Music blares to the point you have to complain to the people in the other apartments. We have water bugs, recently found roaches, spiders, and even slugs I discovered in the shower the other day. You have to call maintenance plenty of times before they actually come out. If they help or fix the problem, you have a miracle. I say the ONLY, if ONLY thing good about living here is the fact that there are stores in walking distance. I strongly advise you don't move in. We're currently looking for a new apartment to live in.
