8/19/23 update: AC is not working again. Inside is currently at 86°-88°. I do not why maintenance does not repair or replace the issue. 7/13/23 update: came home to the unit being hot (inside around 90°) with the AC blowing hot air and wet, moldy smell from the leaks that have not been fixed. Around the water heater is completely soaked, could be from leak or the heater is leaking - they are aware of the leaks and still nothing! I'm sure I will be told they have to wait until their is no more daily rains. Such much fun using a bucket to collect the pain pouring inside.
5/1/23 update: somehow every year maintenance can't find the leak, which is very evident on the wall. See videos.
2/13/23 update: still too many cons - I am not sure what screening method is used for new tenants, but someone moved in a few days, I came home last night to them yelling up and down the hallway upset and banging on doors, making threats due to their packages being missing. I do not feel safe coming home to that kind of mess!
The cons outweigh the pros with this complex.
Pros: close to grocery stores, highway, elementary school (if you have kids), park, and dog park. Lucy, the property manager is very polite and follows on issues when you speak with her.
Cons:
-Repairs: Within less than a yr, my AC has blown hot air at least 3 times - I'm not sure who's in charge of repairs, but FL that's too often and a no-no.
-Garbage: between the city trash removal folks that comes between 1:45 am-3:30 am or the smell that hits you in the face from the 1st floor dumpster - I am not sure which is worst!!
-Laundry: cheaper to bring to a laundry mat. The dryers go out and you don't find out until after the fact. I assume they aren't maintained unless its reported not working.. And some folks with pets, do not clean out the residue left over in the machines after using.
-Tenants: is there screening down on the tenants that move in? There is way too much drama within the bldg I reside with no respect for other. It's either children running down the halls, slamming doors yelling, arguments (which law enforcement step in).
-Units: the walls are thin!!!! You hear everything in the units; esp if you face the parking lot. You hear elevators, people in the stairwell, conversations in the parking lot, footsteps, neighbors kids playing their rooms. If you suffer from headache or migraines or just need peace & quiet - I strongly do not recommend.
This complex has gone downhill within the past 5 yrs; and I'm only one side of the complex. I don't even want to know about the other buildings.
