Stratford Wood Apartment Homes

I have lived here since October 2021. The staff is always responsive and alerts residents to what is going to be worked on in the building, outside the building, in the garage, or if there are issues with the pool or access systems. It's a mostly quiet community, people sometimes are not timely with removing laundry, and tenants can be lazy and leave trash in the trash chute room when it doesn't fit in the chute. I have communicated a lot with Jennifer T and other staff, and they have been very helpful, responsive, and actually advocate for the residents. I have read reviews of people complaining about stuff breaking down or water leaks from melting snow. 1.We live in Minnesota - places get water damage every snow melt we have. 2. A lot of things happen behind the scenes we don't know about - such as all the calls made to get contractors out to fix issues outside the scope of maintenance. 3. Rent is actually affordable here for what we have - look around. 4. If you see a door propped, close it. 5. Try owning a house and have things break down - and have fun paying that bill. Also, those repairs don't happen in a snap of your fingers either. 6. Things break down. 7. I have never seen a cockroach or rodent here - those people must have brought them in. 8. For people so "fed up" with living here, yet they continue to do so, we all have the freedom to break the lease - it costs less than 2 months rent to do so.
