Cortland
2022 Nov 05
I relocated to Atlanta and I have been living in one of their communities for 3 months. I paid $300 extra to live here due to the positive word of mouth reviews of Cortland however it has been the worst mistake and not worth the extra money. There has been construction near the entrance since I moved in that has caused for my tire to be punctured due to driving over construction materials everyday. I have to boil water to take a bath because the water does not get hot. (Do you know how much water I wasted figuring this out) also, there are palmetto bugs everywhere in my home and outside of it. The water clogs consistently, the paint is chipping off of the tub.

JUST TODAY, my heat makes a ZAPPING sound when I turn it on, the hot water will not work AT ALL and the stove will not work. So I have to wait until maintenance comes to cook or take a hot shower. Also, There are spider webs everywhere around the complex. Then I’m paying over $200 extra a month for “fees” on an already high rent. I’m paying double than what I paid for a House back home. I just went online and the rent is now cheaper than when I moved in, I feel taken advantage of and have literally left all of my things packed because I KNOW as soon as the lease is up, I’ll be moving. I have expressed my concerns to the management office however I get excuses everytime.
That goes to show you, do your own research when moving somewhere. I listened to other people because I am new to Atlanta and was told Cortland was the best but I should have looked for something myself. It doesn’t feel like the “Cortland” people said it would be.
