| - I lived their for more than a year and I can tell you this, It;s noisy, dirty, dog poop everywhere, kids from the trailer park across the street where always riding their bikes in the hallways and running up and down them screaming. people always screaming or playing loud music in the middle of the night. Entry gates that break and take forever to get fixed. I could not tell you how many times cars parked outside got broken into also. The grills never had any propane in them. Management was awful, and Mark Taylor is a joke.
There is so much more I could go on about, but let me just use this example to put it all in perspective.
The review from Scott M on this page, well you have to pay $25 extra for the trash pick up at your door and its not optional they make you pay for it, plus you also have to pay for the trash disposal fees on top of that.
So why would he leave that out of his review?
Well maybe its because his wife Michelle M is the property manager for Pietra.
Also I found his review of Pietra when I followed his profile link from the one star review he made on Raintree Auto body in Scottsdale.
A shop that did an awesome job on repairing my car, and a review that he gives that I believe as much as his review on Pietra.
***Update***
The only five star review made by Scott M, Who's wife is Pietra's property manager is now missing. Imagine that.
Sincerity Definition: the quality of being free from pretense, deceit, or hypocrisy
Yet Pietra's property Manager, and Mark Taylor employee Michelle M did not address the fact that her Husband Scott M made a glowing 5 star review of Pietra were he compared Pietra to a resort.
A clear violation of Yelps Content Guidelines as I listed the relevant section below.
(Conflicts of interest: Your contributions should be unbiased and objective. For example, you shouldn't write reviews of your own business or employer, your friends' or relatives' business, or businesses in your networking group.)
No she instead thanked me for my feedback and then attempts to make one think that it is better, when little to nothing has changed besides new motors for the entry gates.
I think yelp readers would rather have a sincere explanation and an apology instead.
Instead she just ignored the issue, and then tried to provided more reasons why Pietra is so nice.
To me that says it all.
Now
As far as a Security Patrol.
Well Michelle M the property manager states "we have made a lot of improvements here at Pietra." in an attempt to make it sound like it is a new service, but that was there when I lived there, and is more of an on call service as they are not on property all night long. They were slow to respond and and almost never on property.
That would be the reason in Michelle M's response she states ( "We have a courtesy patrol service that is AVAILABLE after hours")
AVAILABLE in that statement being the key word.
Sounds to me to be misleading.
As far as increasing the number of dog waste containers.
Big deal as it does not change the fact that people still have to have the desire to clean up after their dogs, and management needs to do a better job in both enforcement and clean up.
Now for what they call Valet Waste Disposal.
Michelle M may have tried to make it look so affordable at just .83 cents per day in her response, but that still does not change the fact that they make you use the option for an additional $25 fee as you can not opt out. Plus again you still have an additional waste disposal feel as well to take the combined trash away in the dumpsters.
Oh and that reminds me about how so often the residents dirty smelly trash would get piled high up outside the dumpsters. It looked so nice every time you had to drive by it.
Bottom line is that my advice is to stay away from Pietra and any Mark Taylor managed property
These are of course my opinions based on my experiences with Mark Taylor and Pietra.
