  My experience at Parker at Ellington over the past three years has been increasingly disappointing. When I initially moved into the community, the property was clean, reasonably maintained, and provided a satisfactory living environment. Unfortunately, the overall condition of the property has declined considerably since that time. One of the most noticeable changes has been the condition of the grounds. Some current residents appear to treat common areas as a dumping ground, leaving trash and debris throughout the property. I have also observed residents leaving bags of trash and other items on their front porches rather than properly disposing of them. This contributes to an unsanitary and unkempt appearance throughout the community. There are also ongoing concerns regarding excessive activity and noise around the pool during late-night hours, as well as a persistent feral cat issue. Residents have been feeding the cats, which has resulted in them frequently using areas surrounding the apartments as a restroom. Despite contacting management regarding these concerns, I have often received little or no response. I ultimately had to contact 311 and local council representatives to seek assistance. More recently, the dumpsters became severely overfilled. Residents were not provided with timely communication from management regarding the situation. After contacting the waste-management company directly, I was informed that service had been discontinued due to an outstanding balance. This was particularly concerning given the resulting sanitation conditions on the property. Pest control has also been a significant concern. I have personally paid for an independent pest-control company for approximately two years to provide additional treatment for my apartment. There are also recurring problems with the property's gates, which frequently do not function properly and raise concerns regarding access control and overall security. Another concern is how resident complaints are handled. At times, it feels as though residents who raise legitimate concerns are treated as though they are the problem, rather than their concerns being addressed. At the same time, management has no problem expecting residents to pay their rent and other fees on time, while residents are left questioning whether the property is receiving the level of maintenance and upkeep that should reasonably be expected. I understand that no apartment community is perfect, and occasional maintenance issues are expected. However, the frequency and duration of these concerns, combined with the lack of communication and follow-through from management, have substantially affected my experience as a resident. It is unfortunate to see the property decline from what it was when I initially moved in. I strongly encourage prospective residents to thoroughly inspect the property, speak with current residents, and ask management direct questions about sanitation, pest control, security, maintenance, and property management before signing a lease.

  If I could give this place negative I would, signed a lease for a 1 bedroom then 3 months later found black mold in the space where my ac unit was. I was sick for so long. And they were only going to spray paint over the mold and when I made a problem about it they threatened to evict me. Then I had to pay to transfer.Then in my new unit I transferred too was infested in roaches. I would find them daily!! In my pantry ,in my bathroom, EVERYWHERE. I am not dirty what so ever the pest guy said they could not treat it bc The Parker does not pay their bill to them. Then I decided to pay to get out of my lease and a week before I left there was a major leak which caused my roof to literally cave in. The people at the office are SO rude and unprofessional. You have to blow them up to get basic maintenance. I would never recommend this place and they should be shut down. Paying to transfer on top of paying to end my lease should be illegal when one apartment had black mold and the other had a roach infestation!!!
