Bridges at Citifront

We would have rated this apartment five stars prior to January of this year. Management under Nachele has changed a lot of things in only four months.



The good tenants seem to be vacating and vandalism and eviction notices are increasing since April, 2012. Today, there were eviction notices on 4 out of 10 doors in our hallway. The gate has been damaged or completely torn off just about every week. We have been hearing a lot more loud parties, fights, etc.



Hidden fees are frustrating to anyone. Hidden fees in excess of $100/month is inexcusable. We had no fees for the last year under the former management. Now we have hundreds of dollars in fees in four months since the arrival of Nachele. Most the freebies have been removed or fees have been added to them.



Management communicates primarily through 3-day eviction notices which they tape to your front door. Even if you have paid rent more than a month in advance. If there is a $5 fee they can catch you with, they just put an eviction notice up on your front door. Ten days later, it will have increased every day to $100. One month later, it will have increased to $300. Of course it is not enforceable if you truly have paid rent. It is just very annoying. You will get new notices every day until you pay the fees. No one can force you to leave in three days for these unpaid fees only. They have to take you to court.



The train noises are okay sometimes. But at least once every night there is one with a high shrill that gives an immediate piercing headache.



The grounds are kept up and the pool area is nice. The hallway has a bad odor sometimes and there are stains on the carpet where there was a water leak soaking the carpet. The vents are filthy.



Prior management was pleasant and communicated clearly. They were here for the first year of our residence and provided coffee in the clubhouse, free carport parking, regular parties for the residents, etc. It seemed things were handled better then.



Current management under Nachele is really bad. Nachele brings drama and emotion where there are clear logical solutions.



We are not planning on renewing our lease here if Nachele is still here. Nor are we unless the type of tenants moving in seem more responsible and respectful.
