Review History for markinwyo

Pros and Cons you make the judgement.

Pros:<br>1.) New management company is doing improvements (i.e Shingles, landscaping, road, hallways painted, renovated community/office/gym)<br>2.) Large apartments.<br>3.) Friendly Staff (office and service)<br>4.) Laundry on each floor which uses laundry cards instead of quarters. 24hr access to the card recharge machine.<br>5.) Easy access to highway (Route 3) and other amenities (Target, Walgreen’s, many food options, Market Basket, etc).<br>6.) Very little Holiday shopping congestion in comparison to other area properties. <br>7.) Rent payments through the web<br><br>Cons:<br>1.) Older fixtures, appliances, windows (poor fitting screens), and flooring (they replaced my carpet) in my apartment. All of which I have seen them replacing in newly rented apartments.<br>2.) Older park-esk area for the children.<br>3.) Neighboring apartment smells, this is mainly due to the ventilation placed when the buildings were built.<br>4.) Slow service response or multiple service visits required to fix issue. This is partly due to the new company being slightly overwhelmed by making upgrades and improvement that were neglected by the previous company.<br>5.) Very little in apartment storage but there are onsite storage units that I use.<br><br>Area that I can not comment on:<br>1.) Snow removal since the new company has not been in place over a snow season.<br>2.) Move-out/Move-In procedures/issues since I have lived here since Feb 2005.
