Oaks On Bandera Apartments Review (Part 1 of 3)

Oaks On Bandera Entrance Sign

 OAKS ON BANDERA APARTMENTS

Located on San Antonio's Northwest side The Oaks On Bandera was built in 1972,
houses 145 apartments, and only minutes away from Downtown, Shopping, St. Mary's
University, Our Lady of the Lake Convenient and affordable will be your first impression
of The Oaks On Bandera tries to imitate a classic and contemporary apartment feel and

is anything but cozy.

 The apartment by itself comes with an electric stove with pantries, pass through bars,
 plank flooring, 2 closets (one medium and one small), two on-site mail box/laundry
 facilities, 24  hour emergency maintenance, reserved parking and "all bills paid". They
 have two floors with an option of one or two bedrooms, one living room, dining room,
 and a kitchen with scenic views varying by the apartment position, location proximity
 of the swimming pool,  and/or "park area".

 The "park area" has been updated with park benches and small barbecue pits and an
unfinished gazebo that lacks a roof. that is part of the perks designed to make your stay
a little more heart-warming and welcoming. the schematics of the apartment complex
are just as ridiculous as the inside of the apartment itself. The architectural designers
showcase their incompetence in basic building code regulations.

When the apartments were developed it was assumed that the architectural design as
well as choices made for interior of the apartment would be met but failed to meet even
the most basic of standards. basic household problems that could have been easily
corrected is the fan/ lighting fixture in the living room. you have to rely on your own
light fixture and fan in order to make-up for it. You are provided your own remote
controlled A/C with ventilation.

The windows are known to have mold build-up on them, certain door hinges are
carelessly painted over preventing the door from closing properly while the parking
lot area has pot holes that need to be filled, and most repairs and replacements are done
after the resident has moved out forcing the deposit to be withheld and denied. additional
problem were with employees themselves were known to show their incompetence.

Door lock almost broken into from attempted robbery

Problem ranged to language barriers, limited knowledge of household repair, failure to
repair something even with their limited knowledge, and terrible response times to fix the
problem(s), and overall neglect of the apartments as a whole. problems in the
apartments have been known to have rodent, insect, and reptile problems including most
recently plumbing, air conditioning temperature, and the overall integrity of the building
structure itself, and unfixed door locks that were broken into by a previous robbery or
police raid.

The apartments lack disability ramps for the disabled provide absolutely no way
anyone to make it down the second floor other than through the incompetently
designed stairway which at certain locations is built higher than standard building
regulations would allow . the problems are too numerous to count and impossible
to keep complete track of all known health code violations.

In some cases certain apartments have been known to be haunted possibly by
former residents or visitors who died there and it has been known to have
negative energy build up from drama due past conflicts which have also enacted
supernatural, paranormal, and demonic activity. law enforcement has been known
to perform police raids on apartments harboring fugitives and dealing illegal narcotics.

Top Nut/Seed Butter Brands Review

Top Nut and Seed Brands

Trader Joe’s specializes in wide variety of "hard to find" wholefoods specialty store sold
directly at Trader Joe's Market. two products from Trader Joe's are creamy salted peanut butter from un-blanched peanuts and Trader Joe's Sunflower Seed Butter. The creamy salted peanut butter is crunchy, unbelievably drippy, and melts into whatever you decide to spread it on. The Sunflower Seed Butter is made from the finest oil of sunflower seeds converted into lightly sweet and roasted smooth paste.

 Justin Gold is self-made man who had his business "Justin's" start completely by
 accident creating several high end products for himself that slowly but surely gained
 attention over time by using the hand-made method of natural products produced in
 small portions to create a high end quality batches. one product of his is the chocolate
 almond butter which has been known to contain too much sugar and not enough
 protein.

 Artisana Organic Foods does not use Peanut, Gluten, Dairy, Heat, Processing, Sugar,

 Salt, Gluten, Pesticides, Artificial flavors/ colors, Preservatives, GMO’s, or Oils in the

 products it creates. One product from Artisana is 16 oz. Jar of Organic Raw Coconut

 Butter completely made from pure coconut flesh plus coconut oil. puree’d into a additive
 that is delicious and densely nutritious which can be used for various food related
 purposes from oatmeal, sweet potatoes, smoothies, millet, and as a spread.

Barney & Co. specializes in being the better half when comparing currently eight
items ranging from smooth, crunchy, bare, cocoa with coconut, Raw with Chia, Honey
with Flax, Vanilla Bean with Espresso, and the squeeze pack version of all their current
entire selection while trying to be the better half of their competitors by claiming to be a
healthier choice. one product they sell is Barney Butter Crunchy Almond Butter which is
sold in 10 oz or 16 oz. jars in packs of three.

The product consists of blanched roasted almonds, organic cane sugar, palm fruit oil,
and sea salt and is made without gluten or peanuts which sounds good but ultimately the
palm fruit oil, which is a saturated fat and sugar causes substantially irreversible damage
to the environment. Nuttzo was created in 2002 originally designed for an adopted three
year old child from Mykolaivka, Ukraine who had trouble digesting meat protein because
he was conditioned to eat porridge.

Each type of organic product consists of seven types of nuts in each of their six different
products (3 smooth and 3 crunchy) which are all organically created ranging from
crunchy, crunchy with chia, and peruvian dark chocolate. while staying true to its various
flavors the nuttzo brand always uses organic cashews, organic almonds, brazil nuts, flax seeds, hazelnuts, chia seeds, and pumpkin seeds. mainly in all of its flavors before applying the respective ingredients for that particular flavor.

The problems directly around crunchy with Chia is the taste, texture and price. if It was
raw, unpasteurized, and sprouted the taste and texture would be much more flavorful.
the price alone is a problem because when you order directly from the site costs $19.99
plus $6.95 in standard shipping and handling which is 3 to 5 days. Amazon can ship it in
2 days using amazon prime. Why don't they do business with amazon just for faster shipping?

 Lotus made its official debut in america in 1985 with 74 years of history already behind

 it from europe. Lotus deals primarily with coffee cookies and peanut butter style cookie
 spread mainly as an in-flight airline appetizer eventually making its way to an online
 store and began being sold in retail stores with a variety of lotus products to be enjoyed.
 one product in particular is Lotus' Biscoff European Spread - Crunchy.

 It might be too sweet for some and may cause allergic reactions due to a few of the
 ingredients involved in making the spread. the price. you should be able to find a
 cheaper price if you look elsewhere. Naturally Nutty made their debut in stores in 2011
 specializing in 18 products ranging from almond butters, seed butters, peanut butters,
 and trail mix while throwing their own unique twist on it and eventually having seven
 flavors.

 The main ingredient being either peanut butter, almond butter, and sunflower butter)
 selling their products online from their own personal website. flavors range from
 Chocolate and/or Sunflower Peanut Butter, Cinnamon Raisin and/or Chocolate Coconut
 Peanut Butter, and a wide variety of new flavors that were introduced. naturally nutty
 needs a crunchy version of all their items. it's cheaper to buy strait from their own
 website because they cut out additional fees.

 They decided to stock their own product. this company has a reputation of making their
 products thick and gritty due to the ingredients and overall flavor overlapping each other.
 If you know what to do and how to do it it is recommended you learn how to make your
 own, nut/seed butter combination recipe and master the art of making your own home
 style concoction in a jar.

Jeff Lewis Design Review

Jeff Lewis (Business Owner)


 Who is Jeff Lewis? Jeff Lewis is a self-made man. an successful entrepreneur. The
 "General" to his own personal army of loyal employees who have their own story to
 tell and a set of individual skills that assist Jeff in his pursuit to become a well respected
 in the field of interior and exterior home renovation. Jeff has the ability to connect with
 the buyer on a personal level which increases the chance of doing business and closing
 a business deal.


Having plus 20 years plus of knowledge and experience behind him he set out to make
his name known in the cut-throat world of the housing market by buying homes and
renovating them than selling them for more than he bought them for. he's a jack of all
trades when it comes to bartering a price because not only does he lead the pack with
his wisdom he can select furniture settings that best represents the comfort level of that
particular house.


 Although Jeff is a businessman by nature he too has shady moments where he
 undermines the very things he tries to stop his customers from going through by
 upselling whenever possible by occasionally abusing his real-estate allies, customers,
 and his own employees for money and power to sustain his lifestyle and pay his
 employees while getting respect from the real-estate community. Jeff Lewis has his mind on his money and his money on his mind.

Jeff will do almost anything to get to the top and stay there. having launching his own business in 2009 called "Jeff Lewis Design" he wasted no time getting to the point that
he was here to stay by making his mark in the world of real-estate periodically alternating
his position of power to devote more time into a job position that is either unfilled or something he would choose to tackle on by himself just to prove to himself that he can do it with the exception of building the house himself.

His open-minded, somewhat uncensored, and somewhat unorthodox approach to
handling business consulting with clients across the country made him literally a
household name with each customer because Jeff and his co-workers were already
unpredictable and the wide variety of personalities he came across added fuel to the
already blazing fire that is his own personal staff and all those who challenge him.

Jeff wrote his name in stone when people began to take notice in his ability to turn a junk
heap of a house that seemingly had no potential into a livable habitat that had the people
with real deep pockets willing to spend what he asked for in order to turn a profit. some
who wanted to buy his houses would try to buy them for as low as possible and in some
rare cases  he will settle for as closest to the amount he is asking for just to sell the house.

Flipping Out  (2007 - Present)

Jeff's success eventually got him a once in a lifetime offer to be a part of the Bravo T.V
network. Bravo T.V deals mostly with reality based shows ranging from various
personalities and situations that are somewhat scripted for entertainment purposes.
when Jeff got the opportunity he fit right in. the name of the reality show is "Flipping Out"
which starred himself and his co-workers whose wide variety of personalities and the
situations they were put it made it hard at times while fun to watch.

Jeff Lewis' Color (2013 - Present)

 Jeff' started another side business besides his own T.V show customizing his own line
 of paint called "Jeff Lewis Color" created personally by him with his own personal touch
 added to it. eventually that too was a success after his fair share of trial and errors. he
 now has 32 plus neutral colors in over 100 retail stores with new items planned for
 future releases. he was able to do business with. his story of success proves hard work
 pays off.
