Resident 2010 - 2017

7/28/2017

I lived at Colonial Point from October 2010 to May 2017. My biggest concerns relate to the ownership's lack of concern for the safety of its tenants. In November of 2014 I took off on a random Tuesday. While I was in bed I heard a door knob turn, I looked up & someone was BREAKING INTO MY APARTMENT! He was chased off & the police were called. I learned from the police that there had been 3 other break-ins during the previous few weeks. The CP management did NOTHING to alert residents that there were a series of break-ins.Nor did they inform us to be on the lookout for suspicious individuals. I found this appalling, since according to police it was clear that the culprits were targeting CP residents. When I spoke to the apartment complex management about it they told me they had security cameras around the complex & they would share that information with detectives. Additionally they told me that they were looking into purchasing security doors with PIN number access. When I learned about the "security cameras" I took a walk around the complex to check them out. They are ALL pointed at the DUMPSTERS to prevent people from illegally dumping trash! They are NOT pointed at the doors of the apartments- which would have actually been helpful in any kind of criminal investigation. In addition to that, it took 3 years for CP to begin installing new security doors. (My building's door had been replaced the week I moved out). However the doors they have replaced have no pin and are not locked. A few weeks after my break in, majority of the front office staff were replaced, although I was never personally informed of this I believe it is because the previous staff was involved in the break ins. The intruder to my apartment did not force his way in, he had a key. In addition to ALL of this, I came home one day in April of 2016 to find my next door neighbor's door smashed with pieces of wood (from the door) all over the hall way. He too had been broken into, and luckily one of our neighbors had been walking her dog- which spooked the intruder. Again, to my knowledge, the complex did nothing to alert residents of the criminal activities that were happening on the property. We never got a newsletter, a posting on the corkboard or a phone call. My very nice neighbor for 5 years moved out about 2 weeks later. I would not recommend anyone I care about to live at this establishment.
