I lived here for four years. When I first moved in it was great. It was a tight knit community with people that lived here long term...up to 20yrs! Neighbors would get together for BBQ's at the pool, we all watched out for each other.
Then Elan purchased the property and it went downhill FAST!! Most long term tenants have moved because Elan keeps upping everyone's rent...and not the typical $25-50.00....my last increase was $300.00!!
There are zero upgrades to the apartments.
When I moved in
...the carpets were stained and worn in areas. I was told it was a year old that two tenants both had six month leases lived on it before me. I am in the flooring business...I know that is not true.
The vinyl had holes in it but they did change out the dining/kitchen area, only after I threatened to not move in if it was not fixed.
The walls keep splitting and cracking. The maintenance guy has been in my apartment probably seven times to fix the walls.
I can hear the man above me snoring....that is how thin the insulation is, if there is any.
The outside is horrible. The stucco is falling apart. The gardeners don't clean up their piles of grass and needles from the trees.
Tree branches are sitting on the roof and on people's balcony. They have not once trimmed the trees and only cleaned the gutters once in the 4yrs I was there.
The property had become a revolving door since Elan took over. We have had a prostitution ring, several apartments dealing drugs, LOTS of domestic violence, and squatters because apartments stay empty for 3-4 months after people vacate.
The washers and dryers are ALWAYS broken or they take your money. For two years we have been told new washer and dryers were coming....still waiting.
The gym...if that's what you want to call it is a joke.
The pool is disgusting and hardly cleaned. And when the guy does clean it its at midnight.
People who should be evicted are still there yet good people who pay their rent and are quiet seem to be picked on.
I have seen SEVEN managers in four years. As you can see by office hours no manager is ever around to take care of any issues.
The files are a mess. That is why no one ever gets their deposit back.
This place is literally a joke. Do NOT rent from an Elan property.
I ended up buying a home because my mortgage is less than the rent here for a one bedroom.
Good luck if you decide to rent here....but don't say you have not been warned.
