Jefferson at Salem Station: Management is the WORST (Not Recommending)

2008-10-30T06:30:53-06:00

From wrv4@hotmail.com: I have been dealing with two particular individuals in the office, (kathyrn and candace) and they thrive on causing HAVOC. They could care less if you take good care of your apt, appliances, pick up after your animal (while others don't) or just in general a good tenant that looks ...

Jefferson at Salem Station: DONT DO IT! (Not Recommending)

2007-11-07T10:32:39-06:00

From seeker5: When this complex was originally built, it was run by Jefferson. Within 6 months - a new company, JPI, took over and they are terrible!
