Skyline lofts is a great building with some cool features; however, the management of the complex is unprofessional in their business tactics. I greatly enjoyed the complex under Mark Taylor, but as soon as Weidner Properties took over the building, the professionalism of Mark Taylor went out the door. It took days to get items fixed while living there; however, it took them no time to do an invasive walk through the week before we moved from the complex. In the walk through, the managing director told us that the paint was not the special order paint they use to paint and therefore they would be charging us to repaint the moonlight white with the "Weidner" moonlight white color. They offered to sell us the paint and we could paint it to cut costs, which I jumped at. For a second time in a week I repainted the rooms and hall to their specifications with three coats only to then again be charged an additional $200 at move out for painting. In addition, the complex will charge you tax, administration fees, and cleaning costs that are more expensive than the professional maid services we have always used. These charges are present no matter how much you leave the property in good condition. To prevent you from contesting the charges, they give you 10 days to pay the charges or they send it to collections, even though the mailed letter with the charges took 4 to 5 business days to reach me through standard mail. The short payment time is unprofessionally done purposely to prevent you from contesting these fees. In other words, your money will not go far will living here with the service you get, but complex management will do everything they can to nickel and dime you when they get the chance. With the recent expansion, growth, and other options in downtown Phoenix, I seriously recommend looking at other complexes until Weidner reevaluates how they run their properties. Hope this helps those looking into Skyline Lofts.
