Apartment Review for Calvert's Walk Apartments

Management for this community is very poor. Each building has a common entry door. Approximately five months ago the locks were removed and new keys were issued to all of the tenants. However, new locks have yet to be installed and Calverts walks management places the blame on the lock company instead of taking any responsibility to get the problem fixed. When carpets were replaced in the common area of our apartment building, initially the job was only half completed with the top flights of the steps left exposed to the wood and glue for 2 weeks. Dumpsters are often overflowing and tenants leave their possessions in the yard in front of the buildings. Letters notifying tenants of maintenance activities come with very short notice, typically with less than 24 hours warning. All of these activities were items that required contractors to be scheduled in advance. In one instance the management stated that any car would be towed at the owners expense if it was still in the parking lot at 8am. This notice was not provided with significant enough time for anyone on vacation to respond. The office assistant I have talked to is very nice but not very helpful. However, my wife talked with another assistant that was rude and not helpful. We have asked these assistants to have the manager call us for the last week and a half but have yet to here from her. <P>
