5 stars for the new company that bought out green Street. -5 stars for the previous company. Community management bought the property about a month ago. Green Street owned it for the first 10 months I lived here. Terrible communication, left things dirty and never responded to maintenance requests. Here comes community management- Cleans things up the first week they took over, responded to a maitence request I put in within 2 days and the issue was fixed. I had that request in for 3 months and the previous company never responded. They answer calls, they make it feel cleaner and safer. We were hesitant on renewing but then they took over and we renewed! Happy to be here another year. Thank you to community management for making our community feel better and have quick response times! Also, Dustin is a GREAT maintenance man!
