Resident 2005 - 2009

7/31/2009

I moved here four years ago. The rent was reasonable at $850 for a 2 bedroom 1 bath. And the setting here is beautiful. However, in the last 2 1/2 years has continuoesly jumped up. I know the economy is bad, but this is ridiculous. We now pay over 1200 for for our apartment. We are really paying to live in Kirkland near the hospital, which we don't need so we will be moving shortly. But for that much money you would expect nicer things. The fixtures in in the kitchen and bathroom are ancient and hidous, chipping everywhere and constantly molding. The appliances are the absolute cheapest, oldest and all around crappiest they could find. Never to be replaced only repaired. We have to buy expensive soaps for the dishwasher, to get dishes that we scrub, to not look dirtier then when we put them in. The oven is a joke, I never use it since it either is too hot or not hot enough. The fridge is no better. The tiny washer and dryer are just idiotic. My husband is a big guy, but I literally can only wash one pair of his jeans at a time. And the lint basket MUST be cleaned, and washed with soap and water after every use or the dryer does not dry. All laundry comes out smelling like mildew and stale clothes, no matter what I do. And then there is the mold. I have met 3 other residents who have moved due to mold in their apartments. We are looking for a new place because the mold has gotten SO bad here and we don't want another apartment with the same problem. And if you get an apartment away from the center of the complex, be prepared to be broken into. Don't worry, they will give you a stick to keep your slider shut.
