Everything the others have been saying is true! Here's a short run-down of what I dealt with in less than a year of renting:\r
*Leaky Ceiling. Water falls behind radiator and rots the carpeting. The ceiling is bowing from its weight.\r
*Rodents. I finally got rid of the mice by stuffing the holes with steel wool. Now I can hear them chewing up the insides of the walls. The downstairs has feces all over. There's also a dead bird trapped in between the double panes that I asked to have removed about 5 mos ago--never happened.\r
*Broken Washer/Drier. When I checked out the place, the realty specialist said she didn't have time to go downstairs but that everything worked. We never checked it out and what a mistake! The washer/drier didn't work at all. \r
*No Hot Water/Cold Water. Lost hot water for two weeks. No cold tap water for about 7 months.\r
*Rude: When I've called about some of these things I am either ignored or hung up on. When I called about the leaky roof, Shover himself called back and scoffed, ""How can you have a leaky roof? You live on the lower level?"" as though I was imagining it. \r
*Hot as Hades. Shover's controlled the heat all winter and it was HOT! We called and after about 4 months it's gotten cooler. We were really lucky that the windows were so drafty. That's how we stayed cool! \r
The place looks better now than when I moved in, but based on other reviews I doubt I'll get my deposit back. I'm hoping, but not expecting to. \r
