The apartment I moved into had several problems initially, but the staff seemed nice, and I chalked it up as just having been lived in. My front door knob was loose, the deadbolt lock would hangup, the stove drip pans were somewhat dirty, the carpet had a few stains and was thin and smashed, every hinge squeaked, and underneath the bathroom sink there was a small drip. My experience for the past year: I was locked out of my house due to the faulty lock, and charged $25 to replace it and the knob, Ive been forced to replace the drip pans on the stove-top. Ive replaced the blinds, twice, at my expense. If management decides carpets need cleaning, they hire a professional crew, and you receive the bill on your next months rent. Ive received monthly inspection slips with things as petty as a light bulb being out. I oiled all the hinges myself, but the small drip still persists under the bathroom sink. I hope they dont charge me for the bathroom cabinet which has been damaged from the drip. The pool opens late into the summer and closes early in the hot season, which then turns green with no cover to at least hide the ugly thing. The grounds are littered at times. They dont always change out the air filters monthly. The apartments are micro-managed and quick to judge, which appears to be the only thing they are quick about, that, and charging you numerous fees. Half the time they cant even write up an accurate receipt for the rent payed, so watch your statement, because Ive found multiple simple math mistakes. Incompetent, unwelcoming management and staff with little to no people skills. Its seems as if they are there to take your rent check (and whatever else they can squeeze from you), and not be bothered with holding up their responsibilities and contractual agreement per the lease or laws that protect the renter.
