Horrible Buildings, Bad Parking, Worse Management

Well, where to start, I guess with the buildings.

The buildings at Avignon are poorly made, they are barely insulated and get freezing cold in the winter, and boiling hot in the summer.

The appliances are bottom of the line; loud, poorly maintained, low end, and in general of poor quality.

The buildings are very drafty and you can hear everything from your neighbors including them urinating in the middle of the night.

The maintenance staff here is good and quite polite, but the management staff is horrible.

Every single one of the management staff are rude at best, little napoleans with a focus on flexing their miniscule amount of power as often as possible.

Responses to common or simple questions are commonly responded to with rude responses, and many times, threats to take "administrative action" against you as a tenant if you make any waves or complain.

The parking is extremely limited, and the spots are commonly filled up with cars from people using the trail and since the complex management in their infinite wisdom decided to remove the gates, this has only gotten worse.

Any labor hired in by management to do things such as paint the buildings are commonly incompetent and will cause a noticable amount of damage to personal property.

Every unit in this complex is highly overpriced, especially for the horrible state of the buildings and the incompetent, rude, and dictator like management.

I will be moving out of this horrendous place as soon as I buy a house, and I would suggest that unless you have absolutely no other choice, you don't move in to this place.

One additional item to note is that the complex uses some crappy third party company for water billing which commonly overbills and is currently engaged in a number of civil suits regarding their billing practices.

The management supports this company through what I can only assume is a profitable relationship regardless of how much detrimental impact there is to their tenants.

I am a tenant and agree with this review. I live here because I can't stand to change my son's school right now.

I am a tenant here as well, and I completely disagree with this review. This person probably had a horrible experience because they THEMSELVES are horrible tenants who complain about every little thing.

Totally agree...we hated this place also and the construction is the worst. Our floors creaked so bad that they would wake my baby.

I also completely agree this place is the worst place I had ever lived in all my years. I love the area and moved down the street in order to stay in the same school district. I am just sorry that we had to wait for our lease to end before we could move. It was hellish experience, one I will never forget. If you are considering this place please heed all the posts on this website. It will save you a great deal of heartache.
