    Maintenance is excellent here. I have been here for 16 months and never a problem. The staff is caring and efficient and they keep this place in great condition inside and out. I like the fact they have pet yards as well.

Let us know if you need help navigating the system and we'll be happy to ensure that note is on there. Billing will always occur when it is due, on the 1st day of the month but you do receive an email statement mid month with your full balance due for planning purposes as you mentioned. Thanks again.

                                      Hi Solace Smith, We again understand that you were not happy to need to move from Boardwalk Research, however your false reviews are unnecessary. I will detail the items you mention in hope that this is the last time you leave a review with poor intentions. We always appreciate constructive & honest criticism as use it to grow. We are certainly by a police substation; however, they do not use our facilities or gym and they do not dispatch from the substation nearby. We are a pet friendly community with pet park, pet pick up stations, and a fulltime onsite groundskeeper whose primary job is to ensure that our grounds are well maintained. As with anything in nature, there's a possibility to have a wasp or bee nest, however we have a great pest control company who addresses any concerns as needed. We do not often have to evict residents. We can only think of one that required a forced removal and we have definitely never had any shots fired within our community! We screen all applicants to ensure they meet the requirements prior to them moving in. Lastly, our maintenance team operates with the understanding that this is our resident's home in which we are working, not the other way around. We take pride in our team's professionalism and never take our jobs lightly. We wish you the best in the future and appreciate you respecting these forums intentions, which is to speak truthfully. Sincerely, Management

Ironically, we are in the process of a bit up an upgrade in the gym, I'm not sure if you've been over the last 3 weeks? If not, we welcome you back to check it out!

                                              Hi sir, We are so sorry to hear that your move here was not ideal, and we understand that you did not end up getting the job you anticipated getting when you arrived. We worked with you to get your apartment re-leased and terminate your lease obligation, which Greystar happens to be one of the few who offers options because we do understand that life happens & things do not always go as planned. We are so thankful that we're given the opportunity to provide residents like yourself who find out you need to move unexpectedly that option. Yes, you may be charged for key replacement if they are not returned in a timely manner. Our goal is always to ensure that we are fair and have the least cost passed along to our residents, sometimes there are charges we cannot avoid charging back. As for our gym, it is maintained by an outside company who come out & ensure all machinery operate as they should. We were never made aware that you had any concerns in the gym during your short stay, but I assure you that if we had we would have addressed it just like we do for anything else. Our resident's happiness is our top priority & we regret that you were not able to experience that. We wish you the best in your new ventures.
