Sadly the windows have been replaced and the paint renewed, yet these projects are quickly degrading. Many of the electrical and plumbing issues have not been addressed. In addition the unnecessary establishment of a gym and sauna only benefits the owner investors by appreciating the value of the apartment complex. |

this Penthouse originally went for 1400.00. A apartment that the original maintenance man Bill Alvarez was prematurely asked to leave in order to begin the process of renovations. The now renovated penthouse goes for 2600.00 this does not put into account the five years of rent increases due to capital improvements. |

The Apartment Group Inc removed their website after their web license expired. This was a subsequent action taken when a Yelp article exposed their illegal practices. The harassment and retaliation is also not being addressed, which is challenging tenants residency. |

This shows there was attempted communication with management as early as July, 17th 2014. Many issues addressed are still unresolved. This shows that the tenants of Lake Park Apartments have tried to be hospitable with the new owners and property management group. |

The Representative agent for the owner Vickie Corely, has continued to engage in abhorrent behavior. There were allegations and unfounded claims made about 2 tenants who are apart of the MSTA a tenants association. Yusef Shabazz of apartment 202 and Charles Brooks III of apartment 117, were unfairly incriminated without any basis. |
