HAWK RIDGE APARTMENTS Hawk Ridge Luxury Apts. Unresponsive management, biased, favortism, discriminatory practices, lack of resident control, failure to act winston salem North Carolina

ISSUE 1:These apartment rentals under prior management, was responsive to tenant issues and did not show a tendency toward a particular type of cultural bias, one way or another. This has changed. Many tenants are experiencing issues related to excessive NOISE. The walls are thin and anything beyond a reasonable level of sound necessity causes the offended party to experience a thundering effect from the bass. Management has been alerted to this issue and it simply has fallen upon deaf ears. At the same time, certain tenants experience a higher sense of urgency when it comes to their concerns and there is a cultural denominator inclusive of this response time.

The rent at these units can reach upwards toward $1000.00. At these rates, one would expect nothing less than great tenant customer service on any issues. The rental agreement implicitly puts one on notice that excessive noise is not allowed. Part of the inducement to live in this apartment was supposed to be a very nice apartment community. This is no longer the case, until management gets off their a*s and get these and many other issues under control. I will not be renewing my lease this year after over 5 years here at Hawk Ridge Apts.  I would advise anyone to look elsewhere before considering Hawk Ridge Apartments as a potential place to live. At these prices please consider other communities closely also. There is another issue also:

ISSUE 2: In a society in which so many young children are dealing with the onset of juvenile diabetes to include obesity and the many consequences that arise from it.  The one thing you would'nt want to do is remove a great source of exercise for the kids, especially one that is frequently used. Here at Hawk Ridge Apartments, management took it upon themselves to completely remove a very nice basketball court. Reason? Because of visitors from neighboring communities. Kids who were completely harmless no doubt. No incidents!  Under the old management, there were no issues at all as they referenced kids playing on the exercise court at Hawk Ridge Apartments. Many of the kids from the neighboring apartment communities were of varying ethnicities, and it was this that was part of the motivation to remove the basketball court.

Another reason was management eager to please her superiors at the expense of the kids. I spoke with some of the kids and many of them were heartbroken, angry and stated that their parents were equally so affected. Many stated that this was the reason they chose Hawk Ridge Apartments to live and they felt like the rug was pulled from under them. Ultimately kids who were benefiting from an established exercise regimen are now left to the mercies of television as a very unacceptable alternative.  The basketball court was replaced with a cook-out area.  If you have children this community is not one that takes their health or well being, into consideration. I also observed a very young girl sitting in the cold waiting for her parent to come home. When asked why she didn't go and wait in the office as she was crying..She responded that management did not want kids in the clubhouse area. This was a very cold day!! I simply couldn't believe what I was hearing.

Please consider these factors when you decide on an apartment community in which to live. It could save you a lot of time and dissapointment.
