Soggy Bottom Building
Interesting fact. Florida is on of the wettest states in the country. Tampa receive around 46.3 inches of rainfall a year. Most of that water has managed to find it's way into not one but both of the apartments I have rented from Countrywood apartments.
The first apartment was a ground floor one bedroom unit. While the rent is reasonable for the area and amenities, it's unjustifiable when the buildings have been left to decay to moldering piles of disrepair. Night after night we'd wake to find... the bedroom carpet soaked through. Water would run down the INSIDE of the window like a fountain and seeped up through the cracked concrete foundation.
Mold, particularly black mold, is a HUGE problem. I thought once we moved into a 2nd floor unit things would be much better but we STILL have mold and the leasing company does nothing other than send a man over with a rag and a bleach bottle.
There are much cleaner apartments in the same area that offer the same amenities. Until this leasing company begins to reinvest in their actual apartment structures, and not just cheap cosmetic fixes, it will only get a worse, I do not recommend, especially for families with children. Mold, lead paint chips, and near constant flooding.
