Employee Spotlight: Meet Our New Property Manager

Hello residents of Riddlebrook Apartments! I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as the new property manager. I have already met many of you, and look forward to meeting the rest of you as I get settled in. Thank you all for being so welcoming!

A little bit about me: I am a husband and father to two girls, Eliza and Zoey. I love spending time with family, going to the beach, camping, and trying new restaurants.

4. Report Suspicious Activity: If you come across suspicious accounts or encounter any form of harassment, spam, or inappropriate content, report it to the social media platform. Reporting such activity helps maintain a safer online community.

Washers:
- Please use only liquid soap in the dispenser and ensure that you use the right amount without overfilling.
- Do not put powdered soap or pods in the dispenser.
- If you prefer to use powdered soap or pods, add them to the machine before adding your clothing, as they may not dissolve completely in cold water.
- Kindly use one machine at a time to allow others to access a machine.
- After use, leave the washer door partially open to remove trapped moisture.
Dryers:
- Remember to clean out the lint traps regularly.
- Leave dryer doors partially open to release trapped moisture.
- Please remove your clothes from the machines promptly to consider others and adhere to the laundry room's designated operating hours.
Laundry Cards:
- If you come across a laundry card left behind by someone, please bring it to the office.
- Similarly, if you lose your laundry card, you need to know the remaining balance to claim it.
- For any assistance with your laundry card, please contact the office.
