A diamond in the ruff
July 23, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
I've lived at this address for about five years, and I can honestly say I've seen it at its worst, and am watching it slowly improve over the years. When I moved here, the owner did nothing to maintain his buildings. Everything was outdated, the carpets were authentic shag, and the back deck was a death trap waiting to happen. You were definitely living on a prayer every time you took step on the deck. Rusted nails were the only thing that kept it from going down, but the rent was cheap, so I ...
didn't complain. But finally after about a year, the owner sold his properties. Immediately, the new owner began gutting the apartments, and remodeling the interior. No more dirty green shag carpets, and the back deck was torn down. We got new hardwood floors, fresh paint, and new appliances. We got a brand new back deck, that was way sturdier and safer for us to actually use. They have been slowly improving these apartments at a decent pace, and are continuing to do so. Last year we all received new windows, doors and back doors. Very fancy compared to the ones we used to have. This year they have started on the siding of the buildings getting them painted, as well as the roofing. As far as our landlord, he is pretty efficient at fixing any problem we may have, and it's in a decent timing. These apartments are not the most elegant apartments, but from seeing them at their worst, I can honestly say they are a lot nicer and worth the rent increase. Kudos to my landlord tho, because he came with a game plan and followed suit! :)
