Resident & family reviews
They work really hard at Gracy Woods to make sure that when they're not stealing from your relative , they're stealing from you . 6 Different business office managers in lees than two years means that there is no one there to answer questions about your billing when you are billed 40,000 dollars over what you owe , and even when there is someone in the job the only way to get them to return calls is to not pay their fraudulent bills. By that time of course they are threatening to throw your family member out on the street for amounts you don't even owe them.
When you report theft of your loved one's belongings do not expect a response, if you get a response at all it will be " We'll we asked around , and no one knew anything ... so that's it ."
