After a meticulous search to find a home, my husband and I moved to Topaz in October. We will Extending the contract 80 percent 👍 .The environment here is very peaceful, and the management team is capable. They do a good job with cleaning,maintenance,and pest control. The pool and seating area are nice, and there is excellent access to grocery stores, Marshalls, and Ross. Although we spent a lot of time and effort finding a home, this complex has met 70% of our expectations. If, as a New Year's gift 💌you could add a yoga matt ,barbell, and Stack home gym (you can buy it from Sam’s club☺️)to the fitness center, Topaz would become our dream residence😍
