I lived at the Estates for 13 months which includes 11 months of pure HELL! I'm sure that if ------ reads this review she will know who has written it. I work in FtW and have a hectic work schedule and when I'm home I need to get my sleep. I should say try to get my sleep. Two teenage women with hugh dogs moved in above me and liked to play fetch at any hour of the day or night. The courtesey officer almost never responded and the noise would go on for hours. Try going to work with 3 hours of sleep. Talked to ------ numerous times about that and her answer was oh yeah I talked to them and gave them a "warning". How many warnings can one have' Finally when it got so bad I started calling the police and ------'s response to that was that she would have me arrested and charged with making false police reports!!!! I am a professional woman that works up to 65 hours a week and have a license for my job discription that I would lose if I were to do anything like that.

On top of everything else my computer was on the fritz and instead of buying one I tryed to use the office business center. What a joke most of the time on the weekends ------ had her own children down there playing on the computers while she worked, and they acted like you didn't have the right to ask to use one. There was also quite alot of time when the printers and/or the computers weren't working anyway.

Then lets talk about the night that I was down at the pool. I didn't realize that I couldn't take my dog into the area and was sitting there with him on a leash. She approached me and said he wasn't supposed to be in there. I asked her about the open alcohol glass containers that she and ----- had in there that they were drinking from and having a party with some other person, and also they thought they had more rights than anyone because they parked their cars in the fire lane so they could go right in the pool gate and not walk too far. I guess the rules were only for some people and didn't apply to the management.

I have witness's to the noise issue, and to the drinking issue at the pool so this is just not a made up story. I would seriously caution anyone before they rent here to knock on a few doors and ask how the tenets like it there before you sign a lease.

They will try to keep as much money from your deposits as they can. Even if the apartment is spotless they will say its not.

I feel for you...really! I didn't experience anything close your ordeal but I am having a hard time with my deposit. In fact, I am taking them to Tarrant County small claims court.

I also have a suit pending against this property. Keep in mind that you may be entitled to treble the amount of your security deposit. Google around for various websites and resources for suing your landlord in Texas. This property's management appears to have extensive experience with eviction proceedings, so the management will be overconfident, since eviction defendants rarely appear. Do not let them muscle you in a deposit dispute, they have no fricking clue what they are doing in this regard and you will likely win triple the amount of your security deposit attorney fees if you are properly prepared with your documentation, evidence, and witnesses. Bring everything you have, and remember, the landlord has the burden of proving that the deposit was not retained in bad faith, so THEY have to bring all the pictures and other B.S. to justify retaining your deposit, all you need to do is be ready to refute their evidence if they manage to meet their burden. Good luck!
