Crystal Park Condos — Local services in Washington

Bad Rental and Overall Investment - The current management has routinely and knowingly employed outside contractors that use illegal and undocumented workers, who are hard-pressed in slave like conditions. After raising this issue several times with management they refuse to ensure the safety of everyone in the building. Often giving unfettered access the building to anyone claiming to be their with these outside vendors.

The building engineer with management's approval will attack verbally your renters and will treat them poorly. In fact, often the building management will go out of their way to attempt to collect funds from renters.
