I lived at Bent Tree from 2001 to 2002 and I would not recommend it to anyone. Yes the facilities are nice, the apartments are clean and spacious, but those who run the complex, really don't care.

The crime was terrible to the point where I didn't feel safe going to my car early in the morning or late in the evening. It seemed that every week there was a posted note that talked about another incident.

It seems that with the outrageous prices that they charge us that maybe they could have hired security to monitor the entire facility.

Sure, they paid our water at first, but then told us that if we stayed on for the next year, not only would the rent increase, but also, we would be responsible for paying our water as well!

Every month I paid my rent on time. One month I turned my rent in 6 hours late, on the evening of the 5th rather than the 5th during business hours. When I called them the next morning they told me that they could make no exceptions and that I owed them a late fee of $120!

Another thing was that construction and remodeling started about 2 months after I moved in. It was to last 3 months tops. When I moved out the renovations were still in progress and our deck looked worse than it did when they started. They had no good explanation. Each morning we awoke at 7 am to pounding, machinery, etc.

On another note, we had a maintenance person to our place several times to fix our screen door. Still wasn't fixed when we moved out.

With the distance from the city, the commute just to the metro in the morning, the extremely high rent, the lack of exceptions, and the maintenance for the entire year, I would not recommend this apartment complex to my worst enemy.
