"Leslie is a very good manager. She is on top of everything,and keeps everything looking nice and clean. The apartment complex is a nice place to live. It is located close to nice restaurants and Walmart. The bistro and the lunch box and the hills bar are walking distance away. The apartments are being upgraded. I enjoyed the 5 years that I lived there, no complaints"

"Been here 12 years.. issues ..sure who doesnt have them..but this is home. I love it here. Leslie is the best manager ever and great maintenance. Water issue is a drag but I can live with it."

"I would advise this complex to take note of the current renter's market. A lot of us are really qualified, and the market is saturated with a lot of great properties and options, probably will be the case for a while to come. Gone are the days of aggressive and hostile conversations you attempt to have with potential new renters, or current tenants. So, you would be wise to adjust your approach and ditch the old tactics that you once may have felt entitled to use with potential renters. Especially when your property has such a terrible reputation already. You definitely need to figure some things out. You can't beat up on renters anymore like you are used to doing. I'd definitely make a note of that somewhere. Literally three families moved out of my complex in a week. I'm moving in a few weeks or so, and the family below me too. Why? Because my management has been mistreating us for a while, and now, the rental market is flooded. Also people I know are moving back in with families and consolidating homes. This is gonna be a new era, and properties are going to need to shape up or ship out. Nobody has come by to see any units at my complex, the word is getting out on properties with bad management, who are treating the residents badly. The units aren't filling right back up like they used to, either. You definitely need a new strategy at this point. My two cents from a renter who had a negative experience with your management, upon considering this property."

"First night in our apartment our stove doesn’t even have burners. The water in my bathroom sink did not run. And my garbage disposal didn’t turn on what so ever. To top it all off my sliding glass door and the only window Wouldn’t slide open properly. So after I finally get my window fixed I went to open the blinds.. turns out my blinds were duct taped together at the top and just slid back into the original spot. So practically all my blinds in my bedroom have fallen off from sliding them a few times. Then my kitchen light just stops turning on, I thought I should just change the bulb right? Wrong. It’s all electric so yet again I have to get somthing fixed. There’s construction work that’s been going on since I’ve moved in and it’s just non stop noise and dust until 5pm. They turn off the water for several hours every other week and your living room floods whenever it rains. they will literally lock your clothes in the laundry room at 9pm. (There’s a sign but all it says it don’t start laundry past 7. Never stating when it closes) so if your put your work clothes in around 6 your just out of luck the next day. Cherry on top on the cake! the pool, hot tub, and sauna have not worked since I’ve moved in January. I can’t imagine how much longer before I moved in it might have been out of order. If I’m paying for amenities I expect those. The only thing I have nice to say is that the apartment manager is very kind and understanding and the location is convenient. Mistakes happen and I understand that but this has just been the most awful experience I’ve had and I would not recommend this place to anyone."

"The property manager Frank at this property is amazing!! He is very helpful with anything you need and he makes your living experience on the property very pleasant. He doesn't give you a hard time at all, and always wants to help you with any problem you may have. Best property manager I have came across by far."
