According to residents, the beautiful Coral Gables Apartment building, Waters Edge, has turned into a prison since the new board president took over last year. Jim Lowe was elected in April of 2012. The residents say that he harasses everyone. Lowe reportedly snaps pictures of supposed offenses and charges residents with substantial fees. In some cases, Lowe files lawsuits over funds owed by residents. In one case, Lowe charged a single mother of two a $1,000 fee for leaving her metal screen door open. In another instance with the same mother of two, he snapped a picture of her in the lobby eating a salad. He then proceeded to send her a copy of the photo with a note that said, “Not Allowed.”
According to Lowe, he is simply enforcing the condo’s long-standing rules. He claims that had he not stepped in, the apartment building would be broke by August. Lowe said that since his election, Waters Edge is now ahead on their bills and has new elevators and security cameras. Lowe admits that his style is abrasive but that he is saving the building hundreds of thousands of dollars, as a result.
