Windsor Oaks 1210 Windsor, Austin TX Managed by: Campus & Central Properties / Nick Cochrane Move In: - bathroom remodeling was incomplete * granite on walls incomplete * no towel holder(never received one) * no toilet paper holder * bathtub was damaged * no hot water for first month - living room and bedrooms * stains in the carpet * chipped paint on walls * paint on the floors * broken window - A/C * dirty filter * unit leaked - kitchen * cabinets missing glass and knobs - parking * did not receive an assigned parking space until 4 months after move in Maintenance: - Although the lease states submitting a maintenance request via email, they only legally have to respond to the request if you do it by certified mail. Twice. So every maintenance request is at least $8, and requires at least one trip to the post office. And takes weeks to be completed. * After C&CP agrees to do the maintenance, it is your job to follow up with the vendor and make sure the job is completed, and notify C&CP that it has been completed. If you don't, you have to pay for the maintenance. - Crystal Jaskinia (no longer with company), maintenance manager, was very rude/unprofessional and incompetent. And that was if she ever emailed or called you back (which she didn't most of the time). * One example: Emailed me telling me that she personally wouldn't wait a month to report not having hot water, that I never reported a hot water issue, but attached my three requests about the hot water to her email. - Had a gas leak, and C&CP sent out a maintenance man with no sense of smell to check on it - W&D * If supplied, maintenance is limited to $100 per lease term * Any charges over that are charged to tenant - Ice makers and window screens will not be repaired * We never received window screens Rodents: - Two separate instances No Heat: - No heat all of November - No heat all of December - Heat in January - Heat first half of February - No heat second half of February - No heat all of March (we received space heaters while the heat was out) No Hot Water (for the entire complex - separate from the month our unit didn't have hot water): - for 1 week No A/C: - for 1 week Parking Gate: - did not work for a month Rent To HOA: Midway through our lease, we were told our owner stopped paying HOA dues, and that we had to start paying our rent to the HOA. Move Out: - Fees * Maid service (2 bedroom) - $175 * Carpet steam cleaning (2 bedroom) - $175 > If not paid before move out, $150 penalty is taken out of the deposit * Loss of parking card - $100 * missing/broken light bulb - $5 each * dirty a/c filter - $50 * missing mailbox key - $50 * missing door key - $25 Better Biz Bureau: - 9 complaints filed Pros: None Cons: Evil more
