I have lived in these apts 7 years and it has had ups and downs. A few years ago the water heater broke down and we were without hot water for 60 days! Yes, SIXTY. Not a typo. I had to boil water on my stove and pour it into my sink to be able to have clean dishes. We get new managers all the time and they usually last anywhere between a week and 5 weeks. They never have any authority and have to wait on the owner for even the tiniest decision. When I had an older car, it got broken into dozens of times and stolen once. Strangely, the people doing this visit our complex on a very regular basis - every Thursday night in fact. If you don't believe me, please explain why almost all 44 times that my car was broken into it was on a Thursday night. When my dishwasher died, I called and faxed several requests. I waited months. Finally, when I explained that the heating element was rotted in one place and would probably set the place on fire if I used it one more time (yes I literally had to write this in my letter and send it to the home office), I got a new dishwasher. Oh, yeah, and the roof leaks. When you report that problem, they come in and paint over the spots. And then when it leaks again, they come in and paint over the new spots. Mold, hello? When the regulator in my shower was broken (I could only get boiling hot water), I had to wait a couple of weeks for that to get fixed. In the meantime, I had to run the bathtub full of water and let it cool off before I could take a bath/shower of any kind. Then when they fixed it, they left a huge hole in the wall of my closet. After three months and several faxes to home office, the hole got fixed. So when nothing is broken down and you have a newer car that appears to have an alarm system, it is ok. It is kind of a rough area here though. I do not step foot out of my door after 9:30 p.m. If I have trash to take out, I set it by the door and do it in the morning.
