I'm loving living in this condo

3.5/5 Anonymous on Oct 24, 2019

Maintenance is very friendly and prompt. Some people are loud and inconsiderate as far as being clean. There are a few friendly faces around. BUT do not trust anyone here. They steel packages and things from your doorway... The leasing office has friendly staff and has tried to help and accommodate as best as they can. I haven't used the amenities yet so I can't rate it. It could be cheaper on pricing considering the maintenance work we needed when we moved in and the untrustworthy people around.

I’ve lived here one year. The apartment is beautiful. Chris the property manager is excellent - gorgeous houseplants throughout the buildings ? Maintenance is competent and timely community activities are great. Grounds and opportunities for gardening at is a top highlight as well as being pet friendly

Each year residents leave when their lease is up because of large rent increase. Rents are high to begin - renters should be granted same rent for at least 2 years.
