Unfortunately, I have yet to comfortably call this place home and I’ve been here for over a year. I’ve had issues since the 2nd week of moving in. Since day one, I have always been considerate of my neighbor below, but unfortunately she is a “Karen”, sorry but not sorry for stating that. I have an 8 and 4yr old who are active kids. I always have to remind them not to run, jump, hop, skip, and/or stump on the floor, but they’re kids, it’s going to happen. Long story short, neighbor below has called the leasing office and community officer SEVERAL times about my girls. Has also complained about overhearing what has been said about her in the privacy of my home, but was never physically said to her. Long story short, I had enough and finally went to the leasing office to complain about feeling harassed. I spoke with Alisha and was told they have entered neighbors home several times to sit and hear what is going on in my home, deeming each time that it’s considered daily normal living with children. Also, that the units were poorly insulated and could hear almost everything, including conversations in the home. Wow, who knew!? But at the end of the day, I understand that I reside in an apartment and I’m going to hear others surrounding me. This is just the con of an apartment. So anyway, next you know, I receive a call from Alisha about neighbor stating she’s overheard from our home that she’s called “the crazy lady” and that we need to be mindful of what we say because it’s a form of bullying. Wait, are we in high school or something, and am I NOT allowed to speak freely in my own home???? Let’s just say, the conversation between Alisha and I didn’t go so well because I was just confused as to why I received the call in the first place. Since that phone call, it seems as though the harassment has multiplied and now we’ve been receiving violations. I was playing music one day in my home and my girls were dancing, but at some point they started to jump around and told them they were jumping too much. A few moments later, my husband receives a call from Alisha stating she was walking past our unit in the breezeway and could hear the music, which she took a recording of because it was considered too loud. Mind you, the music had already been turned off before the received call. The next day, a violation was placed in the door stating, “playing loud music and could hear an adult telling kids that they were jumping too much.” Well, in my opinion, if you could clearly hear me telling my girls they’re jumping too much, the music wasn’t that loud. Anyway, 2nd violation was received this morning, July 6th stating, “On July 1st, there was loud yelling and loud walking after 11pm.” First and foremost, the violation was signed and dated by Alisha on July 5th and marked saying we were not home when issued. Unfortunately, that is a lie because I was home all day, never left the house and my husband took out the trash later that night and said there was never a letter in the door. So that means the letter was placed Saturday morning, a day they are closed and did not want to confront us. Secondly, my girls are always in bed by 9pm the latest, so there was no reason for me to have been “yelling” at that hour and again, you’re going to hear whenever we walk across the floor. Hell, I’d be complaining all day and night about neighbor above because you could hear EVERYTHING, but I understand I live in an apartment. This is just the con of an apartment.
I am over the harassment and will be calling corporate for not being treated fairly. I’d hate to deem this as a race issue, but that’s how this place makes us feel. Sadly, in my opinion, if you have children and want to live comfortably, Arbours at Crownpoint is not the place to be. I can’t wait to be out of here in October!
