Palms At Marsh Landing

I bought my condo here 9 years ago and moved in permanently 3 years ago. I've never had a complaint about my neighbors, nor them about me, no bug problems, the property is kept up well, I use the pool daily and see the pool man there cleaning daily. Small gym but has all the equipment I need or want and it's never been crowded when I've been there. I walk my dog at all hours of the day and night and have never had a problem or felt unsafe in any way. I LOVE it here - the location is great, quiet community, two pools, tennis courts (which I don't use), management has been very responsive and the board is great about managing its resources; my condo fees haven't gone up since I've been here, and no special assessments even though the buildings are undergoing massive renovations (on a schedule of x number of buildings per year coming from reserve funds) I pay $230 a month association fees for that, and it's worth every penny to me! Even though I bought at almost the height of the real estate market and my condo is only worth half of what I paid for it, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else!\r more

Well well lets just say I OWN here and i honestly regret it 100%! The bug problem is terrible!!! But lets not forget to mention the $300 condo fees I pay monthly to have NO security what so ever. Cars are vandalized plates are being stolen off the cars. And here im paying $300 for a one bedroom (condo fees)!!!? For what? To have my pool cleaned (which is on a rare occasion) or is it to have my grass cut at 8am? Thats really about where all the money goes. The gym is tiny and half the time the machines dont even work... Soleil has a way better set up..God for bid if you play your music a little bit loud.. If you were thinking about moving here dont waste your time or your money because its far from worth it. I dont even feel safe in a ""gated"" community. 3 words, WASTE OF MONEY!!!!!! more
