It’s not a bad property. Staff seems to have a problem with listening to respond instead of solving the problem. I don't really care about your suggestions and personal experience when Im asking for something in the place that I pay for to be fixed. When questioned the attitude is insane. As a Black professional, there is seriously a lot of professional development necessary.

I love my apartment size and price, the layout, and the amount of storage is amazing. I just don't like that the residents don't keep the parking lot clean, there are a lot of cats, no dog park, and none of the dog waste stations are taken care/ or work properly.
