MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!!

Good News for the Villas at Hampton Lakes

We want to make everyone aware that Leon will be on-site each Monday to work on the Villas Units managed by PPM.  
Leons schedule of Mondays on-site will allow all of us to better plan for non-emergency repairs to regularly be completed.
We will continue to collect the work orders and work requests, emergency items will be handled immediately as they always are. Non-emergency items will be grouped together and Leon will still call and make arrangements in advance with those tenants whose units he will be working on the upcoming Monday.  If you are not going to be home, the work will still be done, Leon will leave a card on the counter or table to let you know he was there.

It is here!!  The end of October!!  Days have gotten shorter, it is a bit cooler and hopefully your thoughts are beginning to turn to holidays, family and friends!!  If you don't happen to have a lot of one...this is the place to find plenty of the other!  Check the calendar often and get involved!!

If you are a resident of The Villas at Hampton Lakes then you certainly have noticed the community is buzzing with newcomers!! Three of our newly completed tri-plexes have just been made available for occupancy and they are now all taken!! If you are out walking and see a new face take a moment to introduce yourself!! We had three move-ins in one day!!  The new faces are exciting and we want to welcome them all!!  The Villas have long been totted as "the best kept secret on the NW side" but I believe some might just say...."the secrets OUT!!"

Sharron Dillon shot this picture on move-in day for Joanne Stein!!  Sharron caught Mary stopping by to welcome her and say hello!!!

For those residents who may not be aware, if you refer a friend to The Villas at Hampton Lakes and it results in them signing a lease with us and moving in, you can be the lucky recipient of a Bonus!!  Just like Tina Baldwin pictured here, when Sharon Dillon got the pleasure of surprising her for her referral!!







We have some very special and sometimes hidden treasures here at The Villas also.  I have met a number of extremely talented artists and crafters among you as I have had the pleasure of being in your homes.  Hopefully in the future Sharron Dillon is going to catch you and shed a little light on the tremendous talent hiding behind a variety of different mediums!!  Anyone who knows Vera Koehn knows she is a delightful and kind woman.  Vera and her husband Bud have been a part of the Villas for the last several years and have done a lot to keep the grounds looking beautiful, her porch looking bright and each of us smiling!!  Did you know that she was a gifted artist? She paints and draws and has won ribbons and awards for her work!!  The picture below which Sharron was able to take, shows some of Veras amazing talent!! (Behind her on the wall is a painting she also did!) What a talented and beautiful lady Vera is!!

On to less entertaining information...the maintenance issues coming up for Fall are primarily the sprinkler systems and fountain, the regular service on the furnace and the filter change, and a reminder on the snow removal policy and ice melt.

We will start winterizing sprinkler systems and making sure furnaces are all in good working order. When those calls come in to allow us to get a technician into your home or business, please keep in mind these items perform best when they are in the very best possible shape, and allow us to have necessary and timely access if at all possible.  The result is lower energy bills and more efficient performance for you, and less emergency calls later for us.

I will get details of the snow removal policy around to everyone in the next few weeks.

One of the many enhancements we have been looking at for both our tenants and our vendors is the ability to support each other in our daily lives!! 
The Holiday Inn Express situated next to our Villas at Hampton Lakes Community in Maize, Kansas has given our residents a special guest rate that can be used when they book their family and friends at this location.
Each of the residents of the Villas at Hampton Lakes will be receiving a letter with details on how to take advantage of this special offer!!
The Holiday Inn Express/Maize location and it's manager Jojie have also allowed our residents to use the swimming pool during the weekday for water aerobics!! It is of course a priveledge we are given, we want to remain curteous and mindful of their hotel guest obligations and check in at the desk to make sure the time is still convenient for the hotel.  But what a great gesture!!
Thank you Holiday Inn Express and Jojie!!!

Photo Contest

August is upon us and we have experienced some unusually mild temperatures mixed in to our Summer months.  I hope you have enjoyed it and been able to get out and do something fun!!

Nippon Grill at 4140 N Maize Rd Suite # 260 is under New Ownership!!  Henry Son is back in the kitchen, and people are certainly glad he is back!!  If you haven't been by and tried his food you will want to make some time!  The fried rice or teriyaki chicken are both great options!!!

We will feature our different vendors on this blog and any specials they may have for you!!

The Villas at Hampton Lakes have been having a monthly photo contest.  This contest is open to all residents of the property and we are awarding our best entry each month a $10 giftcard to Panera Bread!!

Sharron Dillon was our June winner with this gorgeous entry of the fountain at the Villas

Dale Love took the honors for July with this stunning sunset over the lake at the Villas

Enjoy your giftcards and keep up the photos!!!  We love the entries!!

Also, residents of the Villas, feel free to refer your friends!!  Call Sharron Dillon at 316-854-0050 and we will make an appointment to show them our available units and get them involved in the Villa Community!!
 
Be safe!!  Many of you will notice children going back to school in the next two weeks, school zones will once again be active and buses will be running through the area.  Watch out for the slow downs and the people in different places!

Email Karenc@premierwichita.com with ideas or information you would like to see up here!!

Have a safe and enjoyable Fourth of July!!!!

I love to see all of the flags flying, what a blessing our freedom is!!

Those residents of the Villas, don't forget to take your pictures for the July photo contest!!!
Email them, or bring them by whichever is easier for you!!!

The sun is shining and it is beginning to finally look like Summer is headed our way in Wichita. Enjoy the long days!

Whether you are a commercial tenant or a residential tenant you have been receiving information regarding the switch to Prudentia Property Management.  Prudentia will now be your one stop source for everything to do with your lease.  There have been no ownership changes, only a change in management.  Prudentia (better known as PPM) will work with you on behalf of the owners, accept your lease payments, accept your work orders, and take any comments you may have.  As it becomes time to renew your lease or update insurance certificates they will also be handling those items.  As we complete the migration to PPM you will be made aware of certain changes that need to be made...some of those changes will be; who you make your monthly check out to, or who you list as additional insured on your liability coverage policy.

We value each of you and we are striving to make this change result in better service all around.

Please be sure and contact one of the PPM staff with any questions you have, we are willing to help with all aspects of your leasing experience.

Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head

The words to that classic song keep running through my head as I begin to write this.  The month of June has certainly been lively on the weather front!!
 
Sedgwick County has experienced heat, humidity, rain, winds and even some hail!!  It is always nice if you don't have to go outside during inclement weather, but when you do...and it just can't always be avoided, be sure and dress appropriately, layers are helpful as we begin to go from heat to air conditioned buildings, avoid shoes that become slippery or unstable when the soles become wet and it always helps if you can carry an umbrella if the rain looks like it is on the way.

In regards to heavy rains, if you run across water in your homes or businesses, or see shingles blown off or siding damaged please send us an email and let us know.  We want to work together to keep the properties looking their best and in good repair! 

We always appreciate your diligence!!

School is out for the Summer so we are all seeing more children on bikes or walking, keep a look out for them, they don't always watch for us!

Welcome to the new Prudentia Property Management web page and our associated BLOG!!  We will attempt to keep the content relevant for the various properties we manage!! 

You may be a Commercial Tenant, a Property Owner, or a Residential Tenant, check back often and see what news we have for you!!
