Resident 2012

2/24/2012

We have very seriously considered breaking our lease to get out of here... I just worried and don't want to risk it putting a dent in our credit and we are planning on buying a house. Do not be fooled by the lush and fancy courtyard area, this place is a dump! When we first moved in there was a really bad leak in AC unit. It was dripping out of the ceiling and the carpet was disgusting and wet. It took them 4 weeks to take the problem seriously, we had to keep a large plastic bin underneath it for 2 weeks collecting inches of water a day. Also, about 3 days after moving in, I got very, very sick for weeks, severe headaches and completely unresponsive to any medication, it was very unlike me... then I left town for a 10 days and miraculously got better.... The headaches and congestion immediately came back after a couple of days when I returned to the apartment. It was definitely due to a severe mold issue as I was present when they were tampering with the AC and a flood of disgusting water and chunks of mold came pouring out!!... The leak is fixed but it still smells like mold and funk when the AC is on. They actually turned it back on a couple of days ago and I am getting worried because my chest is starting to feel congested... So, finally after they fixed the AC leak the carpet was still really wet and damp and turns out the washer and dryer in our unit was leaking all underneath the carpet! When we moved in they said the units came with a washer/dryer (I have my own and wouldn't have considered moving here if I'd known that wasn't so) So when it broke down management basically said, "sorry, previous tenants must have left it, it's not our problem" It's just been a huge mess dealing with these people and the poor condition of our unit While all these workers were coming in and out of my apartment while we were gone, trying to fix all those problems one of my rings went missing... I have scowered the place and yet to find it and pretty sure I won't.. I know exactly wear I put it, I had forgotten to put it on before I left the apartment on my way out of town. Originally before we moved in I said I would not sign a lease unless I knew there was brand new carpet.... they said it had just been replaced. That was another lie... obviously. In fact, it is really worn and gross and feels yucky to walk on. And we can see someone else's furniture marks. And all the mold underneath when they replaced some of it with the tile. The noise!!! We live on a first floor unit and there were 3 people crammed into the one bedroom above us. They all got up at 5:00 every morning and one would set his phone on the floor and we would wake up to it's alarm vibrating every morning. You can hear EVERY little step, and creak from upstairs. $250 for water and electric and you can't even control the temp in the units. Also, you can't open the windows so it get's really musty and damp. I have to periodically turn on the hot area blowing out when it's 75 degrees just for circulation. You are completely at their mercy and hopefully they remember to adjust the right settings. I found black mold in our refrigerator... if it was there, it's in other places... and I think there is some up in our moldy AC ducts circulating around when the AC is on. I would occasionally find worms crawling around in our bathroom... There is a HUGE flea problem and we don't even have pets! I've killed 3 already today. All in all, my boyfriend was so googly eyed and fell in love with the whole courtyard court yard. Don't get me wrong-- It's very pretty. But that's where all the money goes and the apartments have cheap updates but until your actually in here you don't realize what a ---- hole this place is... Ugh!! I had a gut feeling this would be bad and I should have said no to this place..
