I toured today with the property manager Jennifer! She was the nicest person I’ve met in Atlanta, very informative. The apartment I’m moving into has a cool view of the pool. I enjoyed meeting everyone who works there, Pedro told me he’s the best maintenance guy so I’m in good hands. It was an awesome experience. I’m excited to move in in July:
