    Review

    Residents consistently praise the maintenance team, and Jeff the Maintenance Manager stands out as a standout. They describe him as knowledgeable about every repair or replacement that's needed, with a level of kindness and efficiency that makes a real difference day-to-day. The apartments themselves are noted as clean and beautiful, and the care shown by the maintenance staff contributes to a sense of reliability and comfort that many tenants remember fondly. The impression is that Jeff embodies a broadly positive maintenance culture that elevates the living experience for everyone who calls the property home.

    Management changes have framed much of the recent conversation about the community. A new management group took the helm in November 2018, and many residents credit this shift with a marked improvement in responsiveness and overall service. The newer management is described as excellent at addressing needs promptly, with residents noting friendly and helpful interactions from the office staff. The atmosphere around the property has shifted from one of concern to one of confidence, as tenants see real effort to meet requests and keep the property well-managed.

    Before the current management team arrived, several residents recount a period of decline tied to new ownership. They say the property suffered from a loss of tenants and a sense of neglect that was hard to reverse. After Thompson Co. Management - also referred to as Thomson Companies in some comments - began overseeing the property, tenants describe a turnaround: hard work to restore the standards residents remember, renewed communication, and concrete steps to get back on track. An office presence of staff a few days per week, a system for leaving messages, and a promise of timely responses all contributed to a more reliable living environment.

    In terms of concrete improvements, residents specifically call out hallways that were repainted and recarpeted under the new management, as well as the distribution of contact names and numbers for various concerns. One resident recalls that calls were answered immediately after the change, and another describes a situation where help arrived after a single call - an outcome that stands out against prior experiences. Overall, the mood among many tenants is that this management team is attempting to restore the sense of stability and attentiveness that characterized the community in the past.

    There are also individual experiences that highlight both the positive momentum and ongoing concerns. One tenant who moved in during October 2017 notes that problems were difficult to resolve in the earlier period, but after Thomson Companies took over in November 2018, improvements became evident - staff provided clear contact information and, in at least one instance, a single call resolved an issue promptly. This story captures a broader sentiment that, while progress has been made, there is still a feeling among some residents that more work is needed to maintain consistent communication and service.

    Amid the progress, not every voice is wholly positive. A strand of feedback points to ongoing communication gaps and perceived overpricing. Some tenants feel that management still does not communicate effectively, and they express frustration about prices that they view as high for what is offered. There are mentions of rent increases with short notice that have pushed some residents toward the decision to move out, reinforced by observations that the office is rarely occupied and that the new management can feel evasive. For these residents, there are alternative communities nearby that offer comparable amenities at lower rent, which makes the case for continued dissatisfaction with the current pricing and engagement.

    Taken together, the collection of reviews paints a complex, evolving picture. The maintenance team, led by Jeff, is celebrated for expertise and attentiveness, contributing to a clean, well-kept living environment. The management transition that began in late 2018 appears to have driven meaningful improvements in responsiveness and in visible, tangible upgrades like refreshed hallways and a documented system for problem reporting. Yet the story is not uniformly positive: concerns about ongoing communication gaps and the fairness of pricing remain for a portion of the tenant base, with some residents choosing to move on in search of better value and a more consistently engaged management presence. As the community continues to navigate these dynamics, many residents - especially those who have endured through the tougher years - are hopeful that the current trajectory will solidify into a renewed, stable, and well-communicated place to live.
