Resident 2014 - 2015

7/16/2015

I am about to leave this property in a couple of weeks and thought this place deserves some attention. Like most people that probably read these initial reviews prior to renting, I too, was reluctant to rent here. If it wasn't for the fact that I found out a co-worker lived here and conveyed his positive experience, I would've never given this place a second look. Negatives - they are a older buildings so I'm not sure if this is considered negative or not because it seems that many of my neighbors like the character. In other words, it wasn't built in the year 2000 and after. There is no amenities such as a pool or fitness center but what it does have is yard space. I see some of my neighbors have front yard spaces as well. Positives - Let me start by acknowledging the Property Manager. As I have read, those people that came before me are absolutely correct. From the first day of meeting her, she was as if she was an old friend. Throughout my year here, I cannot begin to tell you how much she does go over and above her job duty. I've even been in the office when she coordinated dog walking/or letting a neighbors dog out while they were away for a long day at work. Follow up with maintenance is on time and many times over, I will come home to even more nice touches that I never expected. I call in a clogged sink and come back to it fixed, upgraded light fixtures, new air filters and new faucets. Management has been on top of things here with keeping us updated on when they are coming in, how long it will take and how she can make it even better. I have known a few neighbors who have a little more freedom in doing things here such as gardens and gardening and we are allowed to have grills. One of the reasons that draw many people here is the location but I do have to say the surroundings are not just brick and mortar. It really does feel like a neighborhood, more than an apartment community. These apartment have hardwoods too which is better than carpet. Honestly, I can't really say enough of this place. However, I do have to emphasize that what sets it apart from other places I have lived at is my experience. You do feel like part of the family here. If I didn't have to move out of state, I would still be here. I am going to miss being surrounded by great people, community and management. Good luck in your search and give this place a try!
