We lived at Windsor apartments 11/2011 - 7/2012. We fell behind on rent and refused to work with us. Evicted us and sued for remaining rent. Ok, fine. Then they add a lengthy list of fees: cleaning carpet, cleaning blinds, changing light bulbs, etc. They added additional fees of $2000+. Tried sueing us for new amount of over 4k. They were granted this. From 5/2013 - 11/2019 they charged 3% interest. Bringing amount to $6960. For 12 years they've been taking on interest, adding other fees, several garnishment attempts on past employers until finally in 6/2023 managed to get our wages garnished. Are they that hard pressed on 12 year old debt? Do not ever rent from them. Management is rude, maintenence hardly fixes things when promised. And if you move out, they will make up charges and charge for stupid things like replacing bulbs, fire detector batteries, vacuuming, etc. And they will hunt you down and haunt you for rest of your life until they get their money plus extra amount. It's going on 12 years and 3 months since we moved. And we're stuck paying $550 a month. I'm going to seek legal council and file a lawsuit. This place is a joke, ruthless, blood sucking crooks.

If the residents lived in the suite from November 2011 to July 2012, they breached the terms of their lease. They were evicted for failure to pay rent. The eviction process can take several months, so without having the file in front of me (due to its age), it would seem that they stopped paying rent perhaps in April 2012. As the lease is at least a 12-month lease, they would be held responsible for the remainder of the rent, should the suite not be re-rented prior to its expiration date. In addition, any charges assessed above rent would be for damages to the suite upon their vacation of same. As for what has happened with their account in the meantime (since they vacated), the files where monies are owed are turned over to our collection attorneys, PFL. Seeking legal counsel should have been done in 2012 when they were evicted, not in 2024, when the collection attorneys were successful in garnishing their wages. We expect our residents to honor the terms of their lease. These former residents clearly did not do so.

1 star In considering this apartment complex, please be aware that it is run by GMS Management, which has many negative reviews and a very bad reputation. Realize that most of the properties owned and operated by this management company currently have a "D-" rating. Take into account that how the owners and operators treat their residents (current and former) at any of their other properties is how they will treat residents of this property.

There is no way to respond to a comment made by **** **** without knowing what property she was or is involved with, as her name does not come up in our system. We treat our residents with respect and offer communities anyone can be proud to call home. If there are issues with residents, we ask that they contact the Leasing Offices, or they are free to communicate these issues directly to our Corporate Office, so we can check into the situation and advise them accordingly.
