First thing first—know that your actual rent will be $100-$200 more than you signed up for due to “shared utilities”, which is RIDICULOUS and should be included in rent. So you need to pay your own electric and cable/internet for your unit, AND another huge chunk for who knows WHAT. This is on top of the $150 a person annual amenity fee which you’d think would help cover that. I lived in 3000 sq ft houses with gardens I watered every day and I paid significantly less in utilities than I do here
...in what should be a new, modern building. We average $300-$350 a month for electric and shared utilities here for a 2 bed/2 bath, and that does not even include cable/internet. Plus parking at $125/space, it’s ridiculous.
Overall, I have been very disappointed in the management team since moving in here. Between being given incorrect information/flat out lied to, to endlessly broken elevators and garage doors, it’s hard to see how this is a luxury building. The units are also not well constructed—our closet shelves fell down within a week, toilets flush strange, showers/baths are plastic and cheaply constructed, and small things were just not thought through like they placed the towel holder on the wall in the bathroom right in front of the power outlets. You can also hear your neighbors, and SMELL them (until our neighbors moved out our place stunk like weed even after multiple complaints). Plus the endless dogs barking in the hallways throughout the building, and dog pee everywhere. Guest parking is a joke—the pizza place next door takes their allotted 3 spots, plus 1-2 more at least, and neighborhood parking is all permit-only. If you have a guest visit, expect them to park 1-2 miles away. Over the summer there was also a fight on the roof which required police intervention, and residents breaking into pool after hours. Your security deposit is also just a gift to them—they require you to repaint your place when you leave, or pay most of that deposit for them to do it. I have never felt more nickel and dimed than I do here, and it's not worth it for the poor customer service and sub-par building.
The only positives are the gym (it’s small but has nice machines) the front desk staff, and the maintenance staff.
