    Multiple thefts And being broken into

    May 28, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
    Hey so currently live in this apartment complex and we have been broken into multiple times by people using a crow bar on the doors to go down to our “secure” storage units. And the response from management was “theft can happen anywhere and we are looking into getting new doors and replace your storage unit locks with a more secure one ” but there was no immediate action done to keep us and our belongings safe. I would think that the first time it happened they immediately would have fixed the ...
    doors but a week later the doors into the complex our still broken. Don’t live here the management does not care about you and your belongings.

    Dear Amy, We always appreciate feedback ? it makes us better and it?s always our goal to improve our resident experience. When we talked to you, we may not have had the information yet, but I apologize for not following up. We have steel plates on order for our doors. They are a custom order, so it is taking a little more time than we?d prefer, but they are on order and we expect them soon. We?ve also increased our courtesy patrol. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please don?t hesitate to reach out to me. ?Kelsey, Community Manager
