We found Trieste on a last minute spree just before starting school. The office staff really helped us qualify with offerring multiple ways to prove our income. Since we are students it is a little hard to show you make 2.5 times the amount of the rent but the staff worked with us, utilizing our bank accounts and student aid to get us approved. The manager personally came out and introduced herself to us when we picked up our keys making us feel welcomed and not just another rent check. Our car was towed on our first week and that "sucked" but the manager helped us out and got us a small discount on the fees. We will never park in assigned spot again! Now we have been here a year and we just received our renewal letter, which at first, was a little painful and shocking but again, the manager worked with us and was able to lower the increase a little so we could still afford to stay. The manager seems EXTREMELY busy, but if you are paitent she seems to geniuely care and will work hard to negotiate with the owner of the community.
