Long time resident of Oviedo Grove and I have enjoyed living in this community. The community is very quiet and serene. I have a beautiful lake front apartment facing the fountain. These apartments are a good size with spacious bedrooms, bathrooms and living rooms. Plenty of storage in the kitchen and extra storage on the patios. The neighborhood is peaceful. The staff is amazing and very easy to communicate with. They get things done and always have a smile on their faces. I am on my 10th year here. Best property in the area for the price.

After a year of super noisy and invasive construction on our apartment including broken windows that were covered with plywood we moved across the hall to a larger apartment. They are now trying to charge us for damages that were incurred as a direct result of their negligence during the construction on our old apartment. I will be retaining an attorney.

I'll start by saying Oviedo Grove was a very peaceful, safe, community. It is in the heart of Oviedo, surrounded by quiet neighborhoods. The scenery is pleasant, and you feel as if you are in your own private neighborhood. This past March, without notice, heavy construction equipment and supplies began to appear around the playground (yes, the children's playground). Here is a short list of what appeared out of the blue: 2 large cranes (with reach of over 3 stories, to give a size idea), 5+ shipping containers of building supplies, several piles of lumber, several stacks of scaffolding, and a portable foreman's office. Next, they constructed the scaffolding in front of a few buildings around back and wrapped that all in netting. Three stories tall around the entirety of each building. Then the noise. Saws, hammering, drilling, jackhammering, and trucks coming and going, all day. They are replacing the entire outer skin of each building. Two years ago an inspection revealed the buildings have been leaking and the outer skin is rotting as well as much of the 2x4s. Insulation was shot. In some instances, entire concrete porches are torn up and replaced. They are also replacing windows and frames and porch doors and door frames. It appears to take about four months for each building from start to finish. We were never told prior to renewal that this was going to happen the following year. It should have been a disclosure that was part of every renewal. Beyond never being informed this was about to happen, there was no concession offered after it began. I won't overly focus on financial concessions (non were offered). How about something simple like, let me out of my lease. Tenants should not be forced to live in a construction zone of this magnitude. This is a horrible example of landlord abuse on a wide scale. No notice, renewing leases while concealing relevant information, no reparations, and forcing tenants to honor the lease or face legal consequences.
