Have Seen Better

Ideas are great only if we put them in action. I hear property management wanting ideas from residents to implement new ideas but there are a lot of things in place that need to be worked on and implemented that would help our current situations. Hence my title “Have Seen Better”

Lease not fulfilled.

When you sign your lease it is under the expectation of gated parking with resident access, that broke about the first 10 days I lived here. Only two of the access doors work. We were also promised security, but they were fired, unsurprisingly.
