What we found

Many tenants praise staff warmth and swift leasing support, particularly highlighting an employee called TK or Tekelia who goes beyond standard help, even assisting formerly homeless residents secure housing. Yet a stark divide emerges: maintenance complaints pile up (elevator failures, spider webs, delayed fixes), safety worries surface, and the pool sits neglected, leaving some residents questioning whether the property matches its asking price.

Garden-style and high-rise units draw solid marks, but the experience hinges on staff connection more than building upkeep. Veterinary residents and those using housing vouchers report positive transitions, though critics call the operation manipulative and unsafe. The company accepts pets (non-refundable fee $250, monthly rent $20) and works with housing programs, but physical grounds and reliability remain contested.

  • Well-maintained units
Watch-outs

Strong staff support for voucher holders and program applicants, but maintenance delays and safety questions temper affordability gains.

Tenants report a strong community feel and helpful front desk staff, with fast maintenance response when complaints are filed. However, multiple residents over three years describe persistent mold, water damage, and roaches that management has not fixed despite repeated work orders. Car thefts and dim lighting are also concerns. Long-term residents note declining conditions and rising rents.

Most residents praise the friendly staff, particularly managers Chauncey, Veronica, and Chelsea, along with quick maintenance under supervisor Larry. The community feels secure and quiet with regular events. A smaller group reports recent management feels dismissive and complains that new parking policies target elderly residents unfamiliar with computer systems.

Leasing staff-particularly Tori and Lisbeth-draw consistent praise for speed and warmth during move-in. Yet residents report a sharp deterioration after the transition to ALMA management in fall 2023: unattended maintenance requests, dirty move-in conditions, and pervasive hallway filth. Safety concerns dominate recent longer reviews: break-ins, non-residents in hallways, homeless people in parking areas, and broken security gates. Maintenance responsiveness splits between quick fixes and months-long delays. Dog waste throughout grounds and weak security oversight undermine the premium rent charged.
