They never fix any problems that gets reported. it doesnt matter if it is harmful to residents or not.
There is major bug problems...but they do not seem to care. Even though tenants pay a big fee every month on a First Billing AKA Heartland.
They will not tell the truth about how much it is. Do not believe them...nothing will be true.
First Billing Heartland IS around $180 or more each month if you live in townhome. and around $150 if you live in apartment.
You will pay for trash, sewer, water, and be made to pay for cable and internet. As in you have no choice who you want for cable....it will be insight and it will be included in the first billing monthly statement.
So Rent is due on the First of month...and dont be a day late or they will charge you bigtime. There is no such thing as a grace period at fairway lakes.
First Billing is also due on the first of the month.
So on the first you will owe around $1300.
But heres what really is bad about fairway lakes...you will pay all of this rent. and have no where to park. Parking spots are not labeled..which you would think that this would be the sensible solution..first apt should get first 2 spaces...2nd apt should have second 2 spaces. OH no that would be way to sensible.
So in winter...dont bother shoveling. And No fairway lakes staff wont shovel either or even clear the sidewalks.
Its is horrible...plain horrible.
Also, the police are called to this complex several times
to control the kids who drink at the pool or in the parking lots...they throw beer bottles at cars or under them.
Dogs poop every where...but but their own apartment. People will walk their dog and stand right in front of your door and watch their dog poop. Who cares if you have flowers. The office doesnt....they encourage residents to follow the vialotors to their apt and get address or take a pic. Which i do see their point....but people without dogs shouldnt have to do this. People with dogs should let their dogs poop in their own yard and then clean it up. or use a specified area of the complex....and then clean it up.
But to sum it up...repairs are not made....there is a huge insect problem. and no spraying. The bugs look like roaches and crawl all over the walls and ceiling...especially at night. Pretty scary bugs...and spiders too. I looked up the bug...they are called silverfish and they love to get in food like roaches.
ALso, BLack Ant problem..HUGE black ants!!!!
And the parking is a complete disaster. Yes, it can be solved...but they choose not to. Why...too much effort for management.
Dont let the ponds fool you either....when ever there is a rental special with couple of open apts....the ponds will have blue dye in them, fountains will be on, and trash cleaned up.
If nothing special...trash will fill both ponds. they will be dirty. fountains off.
And they also advertise use of the pool house for family gatherings...no. they do not allow residents to reserve this. Which is just stupid.
and false advertising also.
Oh and besides the Heartland bill..close to 200 bucks..you will pay a gas bill. and also a 200 electic bill to aep. and you bill be hot as heck in the summer time and cold in the winter. Especially the master bedroom. I dont think i am exaggerating....I mean hot! But apts with sliding door dont have way to put window air...and if you do put window air in one without balcony...be prepared for even more of a electic bill.
Its horrible
So dont be fooled...visit more than once. and especially dont believe the leasing agent. they will tell you anything.
It is a horrible, expensive, rip off, trashy, place to live.
Just plain horrible place to live...but that is just my opionion. Rent needs to be lowered for this quality of apartment.
And if you get a good deal on deposit...dont thinks you are not being ripped off. when you renew your lease rent will go up by 1200 a year next yr WHEN U sign RENEWAL...I kid u not!!
