I spent 20 plus years in Garland, was ready to come back to Oak Cliff closer to family. Aventine looked nice on the outside & wanted to make it my home. On the inside it was a different ball game. Moved in 6/20. Dealing with the old staff was horrible. Rushed into moving into a non-ready, not cleaned, stinky apartment. Staff before Shauna, were HORRIBLE ladies. Getting someone moved in & getting commission was more important than making sure the apartment was READY for move in day. Walking into office to speak to them about the horrible appliance issues was a challenge. Would a look -like I was disturbing her, would lie right to your face or rush out the door at the end of the day. I was like did I make the right decision moving here. In my 40 years of renting. Never faced anything like I did at Aventine. But!!!
Now that a new Manager Shauna Smith has been made manger, heaven sent is all I can say. Shauna gets the ball roll'n. Very professional, greets you kindly, communicates and is respectful to me as a resident. I 've settled into this wonderful community all issues have been resolved. Thanks to Shauna, I am a happy camper..
Aventine is a wonderful place to live. <3 it..
