I am pretty sure that the majority of the building construction is wrapping up but the clubhouse seems to be nowhere near being completed. I just had to pay a rate increase and I can't even use the #1 attraction to the complex, which is the clubhouse, pool, and workout facility. It is summer and we can't even use the pool or deck!

They seem to have the slowest construction company working on the projects and I think the association is also making them work slower as well so that they can get people to rent more of the units thinking they are getting something new, when in reality it won't happen until they have already lived there for a year.

Our advice, don't move there! That said, we have no clue as to how much longer, but its been two years now and we'd guess at least another year for the club house and facilities. Of course that's not included in your lease ... just ask them AFTER you sign. They flat out lied to us about being finished with construction 15 months ago when we resigned our 2nd lease. Don't believe anything they say and watch the lease wording. They explain it one way when you move in and another way when you try to leave. It is such a horrible place to live, We are still paying our lease through August but we moved out two months ago. They have done nothing (yet) to the inside of the actual units, which are very old, filthy and un-cleanable. We have one of the few (over priced) "updated" units. They used cheap material and did a cover-up job. The workman ship is the worst we've ever seen. Everything is falling apart. It's not worth it. Don't get us started on the rude staff. We followed the rules, paid our rent on time and still got treated bad. Run away ... fast!!!
