Verified Resident ā€¢ 2012 - 2017

When I first moved here, rent was acceptable, and justified the services that were offered. As time progressed, rent started to rise, and now the rent pricing has forced me to consider renting/owning elsewhere. Some of the other things I have tolerated for too long include mud/dirt pouring from the sinks and showers atleast once a month. The covered parking spot is nice, however the "gated" community is a lie. I can't go through one week without the gate being broken, and left completely open for anyone to enter. I have reported it several times, and been told the maintanence crew does that so they can shuttle stuff in and out. Why can't they close it after? I am paying for the security of that gate, keep it closed! Perhaps the most upsetting factor is that this apartment has an agreement with Comcast, allowing them to run a monopoly here. If you want cable or internet services, you are forced to pay exorbent Comcast prices. If you want to place a satellite up, you will have to pay another exorbent fee to Regatta, as this is their tactic to dissuade you. When I moved into a bigger unit, I was told it would be completely renovated, with brand new appliances, kitchen, and hard wood floors. Well, the ceiling fan was installed incorrectly, and had to be replaced. The "new" dishwasher machine can only handle miniscule amounts of detergent, otherwise it floods (cheaply made GM appliance). And since moving in, over a year later I continue to have a nonfunctioning cable drop in my living room. Regatta claims it is Comcast's responsibility, since they own the cable lines on the property, and Comcast claims it is Regattas responsibility. Either way, my problem remains unresolved. The location was nice when I first moved here, but the groundskeeping has gone down. There are a line of bushes that lead to my unit, and they host a variety of insects, including wasps. Because the pathway is so narrow, I can't even walk in a straight line to get to my door; I have to twist and turn my body to avoid getting pricked by the bushes. If it rains, then I will be walking through ankle deep puddles just to get to my car. The path is also uneven, so tripping is very possible. Carrying something heavy with both hands? Good luck. Overall the apartment is safe and relatively clean, but the rent does not justify the issues that I have experienced. It could be a good fit if you'll only be a tenant for a year or two, but anything more then you should really consider other options.
