THEY DELETED MY REVIEW ON GOOGLE SO I'M POSTING HERE!! First off, I want to start off by saying that this is the best apartment complex I've ever lived in despite having the negatives that I'm about to say. 1. They don't like to cutā€¦Ā See More >

    Steer clear of this apartment complex, do not live here. The apartments are riddled with mold, and they force you to sign a lease declaring that youā€™re willing to accept that. They do not care about the mold and do not try to fix itā€¦Ā See More >

        The first 11 months of our lease at Branchwater Apartments was great! The grounds are spectacular and maintenance was always very responsive. However, Branchwater changed managers in June 2021, and the last month of our lease has been a nightmare. The new management is implementingā€¦Ā See More >

          The leasing office is perhaps the most incompetent, inconsistent, untrained group of individuals Iā€™ve ever had the misfortune of working with. Avoid this place at all costs, the office workers do not care about their residents and will not try to help you. The workers,ā€¦Ā See More >

            DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT LET BRANCHWATER APARTMENTS talk you into paying your hard earned money to live here. I recently lost most all of my belongings at Branchwater Apartment Complex in Vestavia. Based on my experience they charge premium cost for poor livingā€¦Ā See More >

              The management at the apartment is the worst! The apartments are large but overpriced for the age and condition. Utilities are high and the grounds are covered in dog pooh. The location is good but it does not make up for the bad management.

                Overall living at Branhwater has been a wonderful experience. It's very spacious and homey (especially since you can paint). Maintenance has always addressed requests within 48 hours, which has been great! The noise, however, is pretty bad. You can hear the boards squeaking with everyā€¦Ā See More >

                  If you are looking for a place to live, I would recommend you go anywhere but Branchwater. The location is the only appealing quality. Outside of that, this is the worst place I have ever lived. NO parking. HUGE power bills. The walls and windowsā€¦Ā See More >

                      The leasing agent was the only deterrent we needed. Either she is extremely miserable or has too much job security. I left after seeing how she handled a current resident.
