I'm amazed at all of the 5.0 ratings... We moved to Forest Oaks (now Fayette Crossing) from New Orleans following Katrina... Had we known then what we know now... The only real change we saw when Empire Mgmnt bought the facility was an outdoor painting of the building. Parking is a problem, our cars were dinged constantly and other tenants were confronted more than once about sitting on our cars while drinking. Mgmnt suggested the police... The apartment two floors below us burned almost two years ago and remains boarded up... The grounds on the office side of the street is well kept, not so the other side of the street. Maint was amature at best with leaks needing repeated visits. Personnel left tears in the kitchen linoleum when changing out a stove... We called the police 4x's regarding domestic disputes in other apartments, fights in the common area, and grass being smoked on the first floor common area. The price is reasonable however, if one has the means - - - I would not recommend Fayette Crossing. We moved out June 1st, conducted out move out inspection and were told that we had cleaned much more thorougly than we needed to. We were told to come to the office mid-June to pick up our deposit - no dice... Told to come end of June to pickup - nope... This time we were told that Mgmnt had 30 days to mail. Went back mid July - again, nope. This time visisted with Jamison the Mngr on 13 July, was told to come see him on Wed 15 July, he was 'out of the office' and employees refused to contact him for us. Indeed - my wife was treated with extreme disrespect and insensitivity. I am going to post this review on all sites I can find and will be contacting Empire Mgmnt regarding their choice of employees. In addition - we have contacted the Lex Daily Herald and they recommend that we post a letter to the editor that they will print... Oh BTW, all phone calls resulted in left messages with absolutely not one returned phone call. DO NOT LIVE HERE IF YOU CAN LIVE ELSEWHERE.
Pros: Not much...
Cons: Well - just read...
