                  Hi there, I would like to get some more details about your experience with us. Since our management takeover in December, landscaping continues to improve over the last two years with tree and shrub pruning occurring this month. We continually strive to encourage the residents to open the compactor door, throw in the trash, and close the door, which then compacts the trash. Maintenance is available Monday through Friday, and on-call for emergencies 24/7, 365. If you see a dangerous situation, please call the office to page emergency maintenance. If you have a special need to meet during the weekend, I will be glad to make an appointment for you. We would like to work towards resolving and serious issues, so if you are willing, please reach out to me at (770) 434-7594 to discuss this further. Kind Regards, -D. Britt, Community Manager.

                            I'm sorry to hear that you've had issues. The community was built in 1985. We keep up with maintenance as needed, and also do proactive maintenance, like twice a year maintenance inspections, and annual fire inspections through the Cobb Fire Department. Weekly pest control is available at any time upon request, so you should not have an infestation. If you'd like, I would like speak with you regarding the noise you experience, and the parking. I live here too, would like to have more insight about noise and parking, as I have not experienced this. Everyone is encouraged to visit prior to signing a lease. Thank you for sharing your comments. Sincerely, -D. Britt / Community Manager

Greystar is committed to continually perusing the excellent customer service. If there is anything that we can do for your apartment home, please let us know.

                                            It is overall a quiet community. The community was built in the 1980s and the unit in which I leave, it is evident...popcorn ceilings, settlement cracks, patched water leaks. There are issues with cockroaches as well.
