First of all I want to say I have never taken the time to write a bad review about anything but these apartments and management deserves it. If anyone reads any of these reviews and still moves into these apartments ...then good luck. I moved into these apartments only because I worked right down the street and I thought it would be convenient. To start with before I signed the lease the leasing agent wrote down a price for move in that I still have and when I came to sign the lease the day I was moving in the manager said that besides normal rent with is ridiculously high for this OLD 70s complex I need to pay EXTRA $38 for amenities PLUS $3 for trash pickup PLUS $3 for trash admin PLUS $20 for water PLUS another fee for wastewater. YOU MUST PAY THE CABLE FEE , either you own a TV or NOT. They also PULLED my credit like I am applying for a mortgage or something without my consent. They were nice until 1 second after I signed my lease, then they showed their true colors. Everything I filled out that was broken on the move in sheet never got fixed. I needed to wait at least one month for maintenance to show up. When it rained the roof leaked on my furniture twice and it took maintenance 11 days to come out after I called several times. I immediately noticed it from day one and when crew and management come to investigate they laugh at me and speak among one another in Spanish (they don't know I used to live in Argentina for 12 years and I also understand :D) mocking me, pretending nothing is wrong. Safety is a joke several people have been robbed at gunpoint and cars get broken into all the time. I used to live there for 3 years and I heard about 15 break ins to apartments, more than 20 car robberies and one shot in head right in front of window at 12 A.M (can also be searched at dallasmorningnews) They raise your rent 25-30% every year, from 650 to 730 and 730 to 810 and the last one 920 plus all those ridiculous amenity fees and... The pools frequently crack and leak, and the subsequent water bills can get up to $60 or more because they refuse to fix them, but split the water cost per building among the residents. The grass inside the courtyards is littered with dog poop, there is always a lingering stench. They have stations that provide poop bags, yet they are always empty. Water heater, stove, oven and other electronic devices are made in 1985-1995. So if your first electric bill comes twice more than what it normally comes don't get panic. Finally the office staff. They are a hit or miss, and have a high turnover rate due to the fact that most people don't enjoy lying to potential residents on a daily basis telling them how great this place is, when it isn't. I wont pick on them too much because everyone has a job they hate, and it is clear that they all hate their job. By the way DO NOT believe those fake good reviews, most of them are faker than the fakest fakery that ever faked a faking fake.? They are either written by office staff to cover their poor service or by greedy tenants who offered a FREE carpet cleaning for writing a good review. I was offered to but ignored it :) EXAMPLE: THREE 100% rating reviews were written on 01/23/16 and all three has 100% satisfaction in ALL areas and ALL THREE are anonymous!! These people are thieves with license nothing more. AS AN EXAMPLE I attached some pictures of our tennis yard, this is what we REALLY have not what they show you in their website. Im sure I could sit here and write negatives all day, but this should give a pretty clear picture of the situation. One positive thing I can honestly say is my apartment was placed in a quiet area. But like I said if you move here after reading this you are truly and idiot and gluten for punishment. Have fun in your new hell hole. I am so glad my lease is over. Just remember as you sign that lease, you were warned!
