A word of warning: whenever you get to lease renewal time it seems that the Preserve owners prefer to engage in behavior that would only ever work out to their advantage: they will offer you a new lease where the best pricing is combined with a weird term so that your next renewal will always take place during a peak period; they may attempt to increase fees on parking and other extras at that time as well. We recently went through our third lease renewal and aside from a nominal increase in rent (which is expected) they proposed to increase the fees on all of our parking. By "increased fees on parking" I mean exactly crazy numbers: the EV parking spots (which are limited) are more than doubling in price from our last year's rate of $120. It's predatory: they know that we have an EV, which we bought just because we had EV parking at a certain cost, and we need to charge that EV. What's worse is that whether your drive a Leaf (less than 110 miles range) or a Tesla (300 miles range), everyone pays the same flat fee. Complete BS. They could have put in metered charging points, which would have provided transparency along with a level of fairness because previous generation EVs have tiny batteries (that require phenomenally less amounts of electricity to charge) vs the newer batch of cars (with gigantic batteries and 200+ miles range: Tesla, Bolt). With that said, after much complaint, the leasing office backed off on their plan to hike up our parking fees to insane levels for our fourth term. We had already begun to start to look for alternatives but with this turn of events elected to stay for another year. As for my previous review...nothing's changed. They company did absolutely zero about the bbq smoker that whenever it's used requires us to close all of our windows (the wind blows off of the bay straight up the hill and into the buildings at the top, predominantly Building 5). Thankfully, the smoker isn't used very frequently. Correction: I shouldn't say they did "nothing", they did manage to dispatch the community manager we had at the time. That means in the three years we've lived at the Preserve, the community has iterated through at least four community managers. If you can ignore the flaws of this place, it is a great setting and the building and surrounding facilities are only a few years old. 06/23/18: Had to bump this review back down to a 2 because of the bbq situation at Building 5. I had completely forgotten one thing: when it gets hot here gets really hot (it's in the 90's today) and these apartments don't have air conditioning. So when people are bbq'ing and using the smoker (as they are right now) I can't enjoy the use of my balcony and I have to close all of my windows and sit inside a stuffy apartment waiting for people to stop grilling. This certainly doesn't make for an enjoyable experience.
