5 STAR REVIEW
5 / 5 ★NOTHING MORE TO ADD
SMV OVERWIEW
4 / 5 ★MEAN MACHINE- IS VILLAGE MANAGERS nickname.
Waynes World
4 / 5 ★See to the security! Front gates have been broken for the greater part of 4 years.
Community
4 / 5 ★Ask residents for ideas/improvements even if they can not be acted upon - improve other new builds.
Neighbourly
4 / 5 ★Repair gates!
People first? Or profit?
2 / 5 ★I wish the current assumption was based on the recognition and true understanding that each resident is an individual and is always treated as such. What's more my experience suggests that PROFIT IS PRIMARY and people are the providers.
Two Stars
2 / 5 ★Be more polite and responsive
