I lived at Alta Place for 2 years. The management there is very shady. Six months before I moved out, the manager was fired after being CAUGHT ON VIDEO TAPE stealing from a few of the tenant?s apartments. They had suspected that the management was stealing from them after they did random apartment searches while the tenants were not home, and later discovered missing items. So the tenants set up cameras and caught everything on tape. The manager was seen stealing jewelry, money, and credit cards left on the counter. I personally did not have anything stolen from me by the management (thanks god), but I did have my car broken into, and have the speakers, my car stereo, a very expensive leather jacket, and a tape recorder stolen out of it. This all happened during the daytime while I was asleep! Pretty sad you can?t even have your car safe during the daytime hours....but whatever!







Upon move-out, I cleaned the heck out of my apartment. I even had the carpets professionally shampooed. However, the manager Susan still tried to keep my deposit of $200.00, saying that things were broken/dirty, even though they were not. And so I asked her to give me an itemized list of all of the things that were dirty and broken. She was going to charge me $35.00 to replace a burned out light bulb in the bathroom, and $60.00 for a juice stain on the carpet that was there before I moved in. I had even recorded the carpet stain on a pre-move in check list and had her sign it. I fought her tooth and nail and in the end she didn?t get a red cent from my deposit.



I would not recommend Alta Place to anyone or anything, unless getting ripped off is what you like.
