Resident 2011

I have lived at the Tallow's for the last 8 months. It was a dream come true...Too good to be true. So I went there looking for a good deal since the apartments is right next to my Childrens schools. It was beautiful on the outside. Nice landscaping Office was semi nice at the time This is what brought me there. I even read the reviews and decided that it couldnt be that bad. DO NOT BE FOOLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dont fall for the wonderful Move in special They have had this Same move in special in place since I moved in. They cannot keep Tenents and I am about to tell you some of the reasons. WHERE DO I START!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1st-They have done absolutly no Updating to these apartments on the insides. The appliances in the kitchen are the exact ones I had in the 80's as a kid in my grandma's apartment. Gross 30 year old oven and fridge. 2nd- There is a serious bug problem there. I was told upon moving in that they do monthly bug spraying. and if you have a problem just call the bug people come once a week and they could spray. 8 months never had my apartment sprayed. I called in the begininng I called them to let them know I had found some spiders (Big ones) and roaches they told me they would send the bug guys over. Never came. I decided they were useless and sprayed the apartment myself. 3rd--Maybe just luck of the draw BUT Loud neighbors the like to drink party and fight, Random people drinking and hanging out in the parking lots, Kids and teenagers in the pool no supervision doing god knows what, and then all the drunk adults at the pool everyday since the pool opened. Dont even use the pool. IBack to my neighbors I called the office the courtosey patrol and was informed there was nothing they could do I would just have to call the cops. Which I did 5 or 6 times in the past 4 months since they moved in. 4th--Car was stolen out of the parking lot...I have lived in Carrollton for the Past 5 years In the Galleria Townhomes and never once had anything stolen. 5--Back to not updating anything, While I have been here they have updated the office It looks great. The apartment themselves not so much. Again Old stoves and refridgerators, old carpet, old everything and the worst thing, Instead of trying to clean the bathtubs or fix the problems with them They use some kind of weird Spray on crap, only problem is they did not do it right so now after using the shower and bathtubs for 8 months this plastic is bubbling up and peeling off Exposing the nasty stuff underneath. 6--The stand up shower upstair feels like its going to fall through the roof. So their crackshot maintence men did some shotty work trying to build up the time a little so it would not leak onto the floor. FAIL. Still leaks onto the floor and the floor as you step out of the shower is mushy and soft. I dont dare step directly on it. I try to step over it so i dont fall through the floor. 7- The parking lots, besides the fact that there are people chilling out there drunk or working on their vehicles (trashy) Its like a raceway in there. I have nearly been hit several times over. I dont dare let my child outside out of my sight because I do not trust him being around the driveways and parking lots. 8. Value For the money FAIL AGAIN I pay 885 for a 2 bedroom 2.5 bath plus water and trash which comes out to $37 a month. So i am paying over 900 a month to live in a non kept shotty maitnence loud neighbors people drunk in the parking lots stealing my car living with nasty bugs. Cant use the pool or workout room due to all the teenagers. No Thanks Im moving out TODAY Thank goodness.
