Actually the worst
Former Tenant
Pros:
They take out the trash multiple times per day and make sure the lobby is well kept.
Cons:
Update: Besides the water being turned off at random (they place notices up RIGHT BEFORE they turn it off); not reprimanding people for allowing their dogs to poop and not pick it up all around the outside of the complex, AND not bothering to clean it for sometimes a full week; allowing people to make noise in the courtyard at various hours of the night during the summer (regardless of people’s complaints); the laundry units are ALWAYS broken. Not exaggerating in the slightest. It’s bad enough that most buildings split one wash room (containing 5 washers and 5 dryers) between TWO buildings. More than half of the washers will be down one week and the dryers the next but this time half of the dryers have been down for over a month. The leasing office doesn’t respond to calls, emails or in person questions.
Advice to owner:
Get better property managers, leasing office representatives and actually take your tenants complaints seriously.

Not too bad
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is owned by Riverton which has a few other surround building which are all gated and taken care of ie. Courtyard area that’s maintained and there’s a 24 security.
Cons:
Had an issue with roaches, the most they could do was periodically spray but that didn’t really help toward the end of my stay i was thankful I was moving I have a really low tolerance for pests. Units are not renovated and for the rent price I think they should be.
Advice to owner:
Make sure the units are thoroughly cleaned and do not have roach issues, renovate some of the applicants for the price.
