My experience with Lynnwood was terrible.
Pros:
1. Everyone I dealt with on the staff was friendly. They do have a high turnover rate though. I spoke with a new face everytime.
2. I didn't have any maintenance issues with the property the entire time I lived there.
Cons:
1. Security - Within 2 months both me and my 2 roommates had our cars broken into. They had their cars broken into once again after a couple more months. We would consistently see several windows busted out of vehicles along our street.
2. Housing - The houses are poorly insulated. Our average electric bill was in the mid $300s.
3. Deposit - Don't plan on getting it back. We had the carpets professionaly cleaned and the entire property cleaned by a lady who cleans rental properties for a living. There was no damage to the house and it was ready for the next tenants to move in. They took our full deposit of $600 and tried to take an additional amount of $150. I asked them to show me a move out assessment of the damages, but they couldn't find the assessment. I'm supposed to go off their word.
4. Lawncare - What they mean by this is that they will not mow your backyard, but weedeat it, and then leave the grass all over the place.
5. Lynnwood has turned into a very trashy neighborhood. Which is why people refer to it as Lynnhood.
Overall: I would not live here again. Poor security, high electric bills, very loud trashy neighborhood.
PS: Do not believe the 5 star reviews. When turning in my keys I was told if I wrote a positive review that it would show on my refund. A truly professional business should not have to bribe it s tenants into writing good reviews. I can guarantee every person who wrote a 5 star review on here were given some type of discount to their rent.
