Longest Lease of my LIFE

From: -Anonymous-
Date posted: 9/3/2007
Years at this apartment: 2007 - 2007
 
My husband and I moved in to these apartments in April of '07 thinking they were pretty nice... We got our first month free and the let us move in half a month early... Had we known what was wrong with the apartment, we would have waited until it was either fixed up or until we found someplace else to live!

When we moved in, the refrigerator didn't work, the dryer didn't work (get hot), there were (and still are) holes in half of the window screens, the patio door doesn't lock properly, not to mention the screen door doesn't shut all the way (another easy passage for bugs to get in), they didn't replace the carpet and when they came in before to white-wash everything, they didn't think to cover the carpet, so there are paint stains in the carpet - even in the middle of the room!...

We pay an extra $80 a month for 2 "private" garages, which are NOT private - anyone with a building key can get into them, and you share a garage space with 3 or 4 other people... The parking lots and garages are never cleaned, let alone the hallways... I've heard someone vacuuming the halls once since we moved in.

Management really doesn't care... After they get your security deposit and first month's rent, you'll never hear from them again... And should you need something from the office, I hope you don't go on your lunch hour... They have one person staffed in there at any given time and if that person is out giving a tour, good luck talking to anyone besides the "maintanance" guys, who don't seem to have anything to do since they don't actually do anything.

We've lived here for not even a full 5 months and are already looking for ways out of our lease.... It's been the longest 5 months of my life!
