I lived at Pincone for a little over three years. Very nice place to live, but a lot of problems too. First off they switch their management about every other month. This causes many problems when the management before the new promises you something and then the new management says it never happened. An example: We lived in a two bedroom there for the first year, we were told there would be no charge for the carpet when we moved out becuase they consider it wear and tear, okay, cool. We decided we needed a one bedroom so we moved to another apartment in the complex. We recieved our deposit in full no questions asked (carpet was replaced). So now we have moved out recently from our one bedroom. When I recieved my bill I was floored. They charged us nearly $800 to replace the carpet. I knew that there was cat stains in the bedroom from an old cat we had (I had no problem paying for that room to be replaced), but the $600 charge for the rest of the apartment was the problem. When I called they said they had pictures that the carpet in front of the door was unusual wear and tear and therefore they must charge us for it. Picture this if you will: the entry way to the apartment has a small section of tile, when you walk in you have no choice but to step on the carpet, and further more they had put WHITE carpet in our apartment, now tell me how you are supposed to keep WHITE carpet clean over two years of snow and rain????? After a while of trying to keep it up we bought an oversized rug to help. While the rest of the house's carpet was fine that was the one area that was pretty dirty. I just dont think its fair to be charged for the whole apartment when there was a very small area in front of the door that was beyond cleaning. Now here I am very disapointed with a $600 bill in my hand. How frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is all a result of mis-management, if they were able to keep their employees around I would not have had this problem!!
