Its only been a few weeks, but the building is building. Kenneth was really nice and responsive. There were a few issues with the apartment, but Kenneth was able to get them fixed for us. We had strangers parking in our parking area, but Kenneth send out a mass email and we dont have a problem with that anymore. Hope this keeps up. :
