Update: I spoke with Heather in office and on the phone today and i was very pleased with the outcome ! Ryan is no longer here ... Thank you so much Heather for your quick actions and showing me that i matter. The manager in the office Ryan is the absolute worst !!!!!!!!!!! I asked him how can we get security locks on the main doors .he said NOPE IM NOT DOING THAT !!!!! I'm tired of going out to go to work at 6 am and a homeless person is sitting /sleeping inside. I told him I have been here for 2 years without being late a day. He said oh wow do u want a cookie 😡 So is this how u talk to tenants
