Great community with outstanding support

I’ve just recently moved into CMS, and Omo has been a huge help throughout the entire process. As part of the leasing team, she worked around the clock to help me get situated and went above and beyond to make sure I was able to move in on my desired date. Having someone who is communicative, compassionate, and committed has made this move far less overwhelming. I knew that CMS was a community I wanted to be a part of because of the level of support I received from Omo. Although I have only been here for a short time, I have already seen this same level of care and support from all areas of the team, whether that is the concierge team being just a call away or the maintenance team answering requests in a timely manner. So far, my experience at CMS has only reinforced that I made the right decision in choosing to live here.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

This location has a great variety of shops, restaurants, and entertainment, which makes it very convenient. Being so close to the station also makes it easy to get to anything that isn’t immediately nearby. It is generally quiet, but without taking away from the fun and atmosphere of the area.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The building management team has always been very attentive and helpful, and the maintenance team also responds to problems in a timely manner.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish I knew that the green area outside of the co-working space isn't pet friendly.
