  • dte is expensive

    May 5, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
    Dte expensive, lazy contractors, if you have an eye for carpentry then you know what I’m talking about. Maintenance here is horrible, placed a request and the only you get is an email to update your request weeks later. Had mice and roaches at one point. Only moved here because of circumstances but once my lease up , I’m not renewing.

    The billing for electricity here is outrageous. More than rent. Glad I'm gone.
