The development has run into a few problems. Initially the assessments were not high enough and the association ran into financial problems. They had to cut spending until they could raise the assessments. In addition, the developer was having trouble selling units so they started to rent them out, with all such leases including kickout clauses. Approximately 15-20 units are currently rented out, and the association has become more strict about leases, requiring credit checks and lease terms of at least one year before approving tenants.
There are also reports that the darker floors tend to get sun-bleached. Therefore, the dark wood-floored units that have been on the market for a while have lighter wood near the windows.
