Always read the fine print. Been looking for apartments in Las Vegas and this apartment came up. After searching many other apartments you start getting an idea of how they all work. Camden is very much out for money. First thing you need to know if you're looking for an apartment at any Camden property is that the price you see online or are quoted does not include Cable. The cost of cable is 39.96 when I was looking. Now that's fine if cable is optional. However, cable is not optional. You are required to sign up for Cable. So add 39.96 to whatever price you are quoted.
Another thing to consider is that unlike most reputable apartment complexes that rent to everyone at a fixed price Camden properties rent their properties at below or above market depending on how many people are renting at their places. So you may sign up at $850, but when it comes time to renew surprise surprise, the market has gone up and your apartment is now $100 more a month. On the other hand you could also be the one coming in when the market is high and paying $980 when most of your neighbors are paying $850. It's not a fair practice.
And finally, there is the water fees. Some places do it individually based on your usage, others have a set fee for their units. Camden takes the total water usage of the whole facility and divides it among the tenets. This means that unlike other places, at Camden you are paying to water the lawn and keep water running in the office. Remember that when you see those lush green lawns. You will be paying for them if you rent here. Camden water bills are generally 10 to 15 more than most places that I've rented at in Las Vegas. Not a very good deal.
In short, you can do much better. A good rate in the beginning will sky rocket on renewal. And you can find other places with exactly the same amenities. Only rent here if you enjoy moving every twelve months.
