Not Recommended- Overpriced

I have lived at Post Addison Circle for about a year and half now. I just re-signed my lease in August because I didnt have time to look for another apartment. This was a huge mistake. When I first moved in, I had some problems that were taken care of right away but this past year, they have not. First of all, the A/C would stay on all night when it was already cool in my apartment. I asked them to fix it and they said nothing was wrong. After contacting the manager about it, they finally found something wrong with the wires on the top. My electricity bill was a little high for such a small apartment and me not running the A/C below 78. When I renewed my lease, I went in to negotiate keeping my rent the same amount. They wouldnt work with me. All they offered was $250 off my first month's rent. They contacted me once about renewing and then the 60 days came up and still no word. I had to go to the office and remind them to give me a lease. That was after I contacted the manager a few times until she finally responded about it. Just yesterday, I was researching rent at the property for a friend that wants to get an apartment there with me (won't do it now) and saw my exact apartment on the first floor going for $750 and a bigger apartment in the same building going for $760. I looked today just out of curiousity and it was now down to $725 and $740. I wrote the manager a long email detailing this and asking to allow me the $750 rent and take back the $250 discount which I hadn't used yet. I still haven't received a response from her about the issue. I called the office today to ask about it and they indicated I would have to pay a $350 transfer fee to the other apartment to benefit from the $725 rent. I would also have to pay a deposit on the new apartment. This is ridiculous because I know if I moved out, they would turn around and sell my apartment for $725 since their occupancy is down and competition is big right now in Addison especially around the circle. To sum it all up, I would never recommend this apartment complex to anyone or recommend Post. The staff in the office are not helpful by any means. You can never directly speak to a manager. You always have to go through a leasing agent which does me no good. I do appreciate the manager fixing my maintenance problem quickly but that is the least of my problems with the complex. This company is out for themselves and will find anyway to charge you unnecessary fees and high rent. I can't wait to move somewhere where the resident is appreciated for their business.
