It has been an uphill battle with Schnitzer from the beginning. Not only have I had to fight and scream to get them to complete tasks by which they were contractually obligated, but the overall "cost cuts" that were implemented in order to complete this building is astonishing. It's sad that my wife and I have spent so much money, (WELL beyond what anyone at this auction will pay) and our living experience has been so tattered with issues. We are supposed to LOVE this place and now that there is no chance of getting what we've paid for it in a resale, we are stuck with a home that isn't great to live in. In my opinion, Schnitzer needs to revisit the definition of home?

It'd be nice to get a unit at the prices listed but as always it gets to unreasonable price per sq ft levels. Has anyone visited this project?

Pretty well any auction for high priced items has a reserve to prevent a small auction turnout from becoming a giveaway. Many auctions don't have a minimum bid, but instead have a reserve amount.
