*New Resident* my initial interaction with the property manager (Sakinah Moore) was anything short of professional and satisfying! Sakinah clearly explained the application process. She was patient and organized. She made sure any and all questions were answered. I felt supported in the process. She's willing to assist and greets everyone with a smile.
