5.0/5

I feel obliged to give this complex some credit where credit is due. I moved here about a month ago with some minor reservations having read the reviews about the management team. When I arrived mid-September, I had a chance to meet the new property manager who had started that week. He was incredibly friendly, attentive and offered me a direct line of communication should I have any issues. Move-in was a breeze with his help, he helped me work with maintenance to get keys and a tour of the property. Mike and I discussed that he was well aware of the concerns with package security, maintenance concerns and other issues he recognized were a challenge for the previous management team. About a week later, Mike had the package room secured 24/7 and completely distributed all packages and organized the remaining few. Since then, he has been enforcing that all packages be delivered either to the door of the resident or in the package locker. As the change is being implemented, it has drastically improved. I have not had any issues with packages and feel assured now that the package room is being controlled by the leasing office. As far as maintenance requests, I had an electrical outlet issue that was quickly fixed within a couple of days, no follow-up required. As a new resident, I'm really happy to see that the property owners have listened and made the necessary changes to the property management team. I'm fully confident Mike will continue to make the necessary improvements to make the Parker worthy of a 5-star review again. Keep up the good work.
