I like my one bedroom townhome. It's mostly quiet and calm. We have had a couple get togethers at my house and not had a problem getting the police called on us which is nice if you have company sometimes you don't have to worry about bitching neighbors. I don't hate it here but there are some things I would love to see changed imediately. 1) The floor creaks when you walk on it 2) Patio boards are loose and creak 3) Squirrels in the attic, yes that 's right Squirrels. I told managment about this problem. When I first moved in, it scared the crap out of me. You can hear them running, falling and fighting up and down the vaulted ceilings. Management said they would look into it. After about a week I called and asked them about it because they never called me to update me. They said the maintenance guy had them too. And... so what that means I'm supose to just live with it. They said they can't get into the attic. So... find a way. After I suggested they call an exterminator they agreed. I followed up with them again about a week later. And they said someone was coming soon. Four months later and I still have squirrels in my attic. I guess I just got use to them. They don't freak me out like they use too. Management didn't do anything about them and I don't think they ever will. 4) Security gates suck!!! I can never get in when I want to. What's up with that? I've been up to the office about 10 times to complain about not being able to get in. They switched my card 5 times and it still doesn't work. I've live there for 5 months now (in a year lease) and every month when I pay my rent I complain about not being able to get in. Last month she told me a guard should be there at 8pm until 4am. ummm NO they are not there. I usally try to get in around 8pm and can't get in. I know I'm not the only one because there is usally a line of about 2-5 cars trying to get in with their access cards and it not working. I end up having to drive around to another gate and wait for someone to come out and then sneak in. Which in hand proves anyone can get into the other gates with not much of a problem. 5) I've seen two neighbors in the area leave washers and dryers outside of their townhome for 1-2 weeks. That's just ghetto. I understand over the weekend of something if you're moving and waiting for a truck or help or whatever. But 1-2 weeks are you kidding me? And management doesn't say anything about it. 6) The grass is so over watered. It's like walking through the swamp every morning. Where our townhome is located and from where we park we need to walk through a small strip of grass. It's so over watered there are puddles of water. They once had the sprinklers on the side and back of my house on for 2 days straight. I finally called them and complained. If you have so many maintenance and security people around why didn't they notice that?
Gee I guess I do hate living here. I probably will move out when my lease is up.
