I am a current resident and have lived in Kings Point for about 3 years.

There has been a recent change over the last 6 months.

I live in a 2 bedroom/2 bath apt.

It is very nice.

Parking is good overall, every now and then it gets full(usually on the weekends).

The management changes have not been good ones.

This new team lacks the customer relation skills necessary to handle situations.

Maintance is pretty prompt and handle only what they consider big issues.

For ex: I had water leaks and they fixed the leaks but never returned to paint over the disgusting brown water marks.

The kitchen tile is a little ugly, but it's an apt.

not your house.

I have a horrible neighbor who is very noisy and rude, management just put out reminders but never solved the situation.

But one of the biggest issues have been the increase in rent (Nov.

06) and the simple fact that residents now have to pay their own water, sewage and trash.

We might as well be in a house.

One of the perks of being in an apt.

is that you do not have all of the bills.

Another issue is that I want to move out and the move-out check list is horrific.

The apt was not that clean when I moved in.

They expect for residents to change filters, clean carpets, fill nail holes, clean behind the refrigerator and stove and touch up paint.

Those are all things that I feel the complex should do between residents anyway.

They threaten to keep your deposit.

I feel that Kings Point aims to not refund deposits, that it is a part of their master plans.

Everything was good until I decided to leave.

Then it went downhill and they have become quite rude.

I suggest that if you are considering Kings Point as a future residence that you get a copy of the check out checklist and use that during your new resident walk through.

And please take the price and all utility fees into consideration.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Very good advice. I live there now. This review is accurate.

I agree with all of that except that they do change your air filters twice a year. If you need them changed more often (4 times a year is recommended), then you need to buy and change the filter yourself.

I lived there from 2003-2005. Neighbors were very rude, frequent police responses. Laundry room was horrific. When I moved out, they charged me for replacing the carpet. It wasn't even new when I moved in, but they said that it was. When I asked why the carpet had to be changed, they cited pet urine stains were found. BUT WE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE A PET! They charged us $800 in other fees even though we scrubbed the place. They took us to court, we lost and now we've had a judgment on our credit for the last 4 years. One other thing, they don't take any partial payments...period. One month I was late and on the 6th they tacked on all my extra fees, but wouldn't let me pay my rent because I didn't have the rent the $200 in fees also. So, instead of paying my rent on the 6th and the fees the next week when I got paid again, they refuse the non-full payment and charged me more fees when I went to pay the whole thing the following week. I don't have anything nice to say about living there. Come over to Midlothian, it's nicer and safer over here.
