DO NOT MOVE IN
Since moving to The Waldon's less than a year, it started off to a rough start. Most apartments were out of our budget and very unclean for the asking rent price. However, I came across The Waldon's and from the virtual tour guide and pictures of the apartment online, I thought it was the perfect place to reside, but boy was I wrong!
Arriving to the apartment for the first time, it was NOT as excited as I thought it would be. First, when we walked into the apartment, the kitchen/living room... area smelled like cigarettes (took a picture of the black and mild wrapper that was outside my doorstep), noticed that before moving in the A/C vent in the living room dripped water and ruined the paint in the living room wall, and the sliding door does NOT work properly. Next, walking into the bedroom, you will find the furnace room (which was NOT seen in the virtual tour guide) and it was full of spider webs. The bathroom door handle and cabinet knob were NOT screwed correctly and kept on detaching. The bathtub/showerhead looks VERY OLD. Now, the tub is ALWAYS getting clogged. Furthermore, the washer/dryer/heat water door handle is NOT screwed correctly and is found INSIDE the closet, which gives us barely any closet space and has an unprofessional look.
In conclusion, besides the issues with the apartment, the MAIN issue is MANAGEMENT. The Avenue5 corporation and staff are ONLY interested in attending you when you are a potential tenant and moving-in tenant. After the lease is signed and tenant is moved in .. if you have issues the first few weeks of moving in, they will attend you, but after that you have a very slight chance of being able to reach a staff member via a call, email or in-person. I would advise before signing the lease with this apartment, make sure to read the WHOLE leasing contract because management will keep you bound to the contract until the lease ends.
