What we found

Residents over a decade here speak of a transformed community since 2021, with Areli's management now hosting monthly activities that bring neighbors together. Staff like Jessica, Emilio, and cook Dave address daily needs with genuine care; the facility is clean, quiet, and explicitly set up for seniors seeking affordability and social connection.

Prices range $1,209 to $1,597 per month depending on floor plan. The business operates a business center and laundry, and welcomes pets. HUD assistance is available for qualified applicants, making this a genuine affordable option rather than a luxury alternative.

Praised for
  • attentive, caring management led by Areli

Recent reviewers praise fast maintenance and a quiet, pest-free environment under current ownership. Older complaints describe roach infestations, theft, high fees, and poor responsiveness under the prior management before Perry Guest Properties took over about two years ago.

2100 Moser Apartments

4.2(38)✓ Google-verified

For most of its history, this luxury complex earned genuine loyalty from long-term residents who praised the leasing team by name (Jessica, Yesenia) and quick maintenance response. The Knox-Henderson location offers walkable access to restaurants and bars, and units feature high ceilings, natural light, and quality finishes. A sharp decline began recently with the management switch to Revival Property Company. Residents now report unresponsive staff, maintenance requests ignored for 30+ days, and a broken ice maker replaced with a dirty used unit. One long-time resident is leaving after four years of contentment. Construction behind the building has also created ongoing parking and tire damage issues, though this predates the recent management shift.

The Fitz splits sharply: residents praise clean units, Laura's hands-on management, and maintenance responsiveness, but parking bottlenecks (mostly compact stalls, frequent gate failures) and communication gaps (missed tours, no on-site office) frustrate many. Clean-minded pet owners report dog park neglect; others faced mold with no response.
