This used to be a pretty nice place to live. Sure, it had it's problems from time to time, but since new ownership a little over a year ago, it has become a less than desirable place to live. While the new owners have done some very nice upgrades such as cleaning and painting of the buildings, resurfaced the parking lots, and spruced up the grounds. It has let the sense of community go right out the window. The former company used to have brunches in the clubhouse for every holiday, movies
...for kids, wine & cheese night, a summer pool party and cookout, and even bingo for seniors. Since the new company took over they have had one pool party and if you didn't see the notice at the mailboxes, which I didn't then you didn't even know about it. They no longer put notices on our doors. They did refurbish the exercise room, which is great, but unless you walked down to the office to get a key each time, you couldn't get in. If you work, you can't get a key from the office, so you never get in. They now are going to give residents a key or key card after almost a year, but guess what, they didn't order enough, so still don't have any way to get in. There is a retention pond nestled between several buildings, it used to be really nice. It had a working fountain, several ducks and other birds. The fountain hasn't worked in almost a year, it looks like a cesspool and even though the ducks come around, they won't even swim in the water. They just walk through the grass looking for bugs. The pool is closed often, don't know why, just is. When the previous owners had this place you could walk into the office and they were friendly and happy. Now it's like walking into a morgue. While they are pleasant, they are not a happy grou0 of people. The maintenance men are friendly and do a good job, but they don't get here very fast any more, to few people for the work load. Fianlly, when this company took over they offered a one time credit of $120 on your first months rent when you signed a renewal. That was nice and it offset the increase in the monthly rent. This year, they increased the rent, but no longer gave the credit of $120. I was told there would be no concessions because of the construction work on I4 there was a rental shortage. In other words, they don't need me!!!
