Staff are uneducated and unprofessional and very rude for no reason. Someone needs to investigate the way they procss rent payments and if they are charging the correct rental amount per tenant. Very suspociois.

I just called to ask questions regarding the waitlist. The woman who answered was so rude and talked to me like I was beneath her even though she had no idea on how to answer questions I was asking her. I will not be sending any of my clients here. I can tell this place is trash by the staff . Annoyed I didn't get her name.

Arms are short here. A Senior living place through a church I would think would have a phone system to help seniors buzz in guest would work after 6 months. Being that a lot of the seniors can’t physically walk down and let their guest in or can hear or understand new age cell phones . Numerous car break ins in a gated parking lot with a so called camera, so called security guards and non sense of urgency, your safety is just as good outside the so called gated community for our seniors. Stay away until they pay attention to the drug use and dealing that goes on there with no visible security.
