Tenant Reviews for 16818 Carl Avenue

I Did my own research before moving in, by looking around the grounds myself...long story short I'm glad i did , stray cats in every direction, Each of the 3 Dumpster units I've seen were not only filled to capacity but equally full of trash surrounding the Dumpster ...and most of the complex. Unsafe areas in the complex where anything could happen meaning "dangerous blind spots"! Endless Pot holes that almost made me want to get out my car and WALK!. It honestly looked as if grenades were thrown around the 3 phases I inspected. As I drove through people stopped everything they were doing to examine who I was ..which says alot about privacy and how aware of your surroundings you have to be living their. What shocked me the most...was that the leasing office looked incredible! Almost like I had just walked through the twilight zone I mean "EVERYTHING" Looked clean and brand new..which to me says how they really feel about themselves over their tenants. I was greeted by a woman who spoke out "HELLO" but never made eye contact until I figured out who was talking by lip reading, which was very disrespectful, her politeness showed up once we talked about leasing details..but of course I'd seen all I needed by then .Big waste of time and money, but if I can save those 2 things for someone else.. Then the trip wasn't a waste.

There's bed bug infestations I wanna break my lease because of it and also a lot of roaches! I don't recommend it

DO YOU LIKE BED BUGS? THEY BITE ALL THE LIVE LONG DAY AND NITE HERE. I you move here, you will most surely get them and the apartment landlord will not help you out at all. They will have the nerve to tell you that it is your fault and your responsibility. So if you do decide to move here which I hope you don't, I just hope you have a lot of money because it is not just cheap rent, it is cheap all over.

WHEN IT RAINS AT MY APARTMENT WATER COMES IN UNDER MY CARPET AND WHEN I CALL CITYVIEW PLACE THEY SAY WE ARE TO SEND SOMEBODY OUT TO LOOK AT THE CARPET AND NOBODY CAME OUT TO LOOK AT THE CARPET YET!!!!!!!! DON'T MOVE AT CITYVIEW PLACE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have only been staying here since th4 28th of March and I wouldn't recommend these apartments to anyone. The maintenance team suck and some of the office staff has a very bad attitudes. Like, what ever happen to customer service these days? Everytime you call and report something is not working, they always tell you it'll be fixed tomorrow (how many tomorrows are there)? I've signed a year lease and hate I did. I would never come back once I leave, hopefully they gets better as time goes. The button for the laundry room won't let me hange it but they have laundry rooms on site.

Most Horrible Apartments I Have Ever Taken A Look At. The Staff Is ----. They Don't Help You In Any Type Of Way. They're Rude. The Manager Is A Complete -----. They Promise You One Thing And Give You Something Totally Different. While I Was In The Office Many People Came In And Out Asking For Repairs That They've Requested A Month Or So Ago. I Do Not Recommend This To Anyone.

When I first moved in, I kept defending it to all my friends and family who were worried about my safety. It just looks shoddy on the outside I said, don't worry about the roaches they sprayed them out in a week. It only took them a month to get my kitchen drawer and who cares about half the outlets in the living room not working. Thank God I listened to my parents and took a 6 month lease! The lady who initially signed me up was fired ( I got a free month out of that, so that was a plus) because of her incompetence. The leasing staff is actually super nice and I don't have anything bad to say about them, I think they do the best with what they can. Now onto the issues. My car was towed twice to considerable expense. The neighbors are incredibly noisy, I have someone who literally sings at the top of her lungs till 3 in the morning. I would complain but their telephone operators are incredibly rude and are often not even available. There are potholes everywhere in the parking lot, and the gate was broken for half the time I have lived here. And no it does not feel incredibly safe at any time of the day, I would never advice a female to live here on her own. What finally made me write this review is that I realized I was robbed. I am actually thinking that it might be staff because my door was locked up afterwards (albeit slightly worse for wear.) It took me a little while to notice it because I was so busy at work but it seems that someone came in, stole my Playstation 3 and games, left my lights/fan/AC on and then was considerate enough to lock up afterwards. City View Place Apartments : At least the criminals are considerate

Okay been living here my whole lease 13 months and don't know why i stayed so long! There are always people walking around every where and hanging out on the stairs smoking marijuana and drinking beers. They refused to inform us to be safer after two women were raped in the parking lot and one by a pool and you know i would have felt differently if they at least sent a notice around saying be aware of your surroundings but no they didn't even tell employees about it they hid it from us! Shame! Well when i moved in the area they showed me was nice calm and quiet but don't be fooled its looks it's a terrible place to live! They let my garbage disposal stay broken for three days and the whole house smelled the whole sewage system is always clogging up and it backs up and everyones toilets are backing up. Even the shower will be slow to drain! ---- is all over the side walks and the parking lot which they usually just let dry up! They expect us to pay fines for the trash that people pass by and throw by our apartments! Sadly. They have court yards that just have dirt and glass every where and i honestly don't let my children outside ever for that reason! They don't care how the apartments look they need serious pressure washing on all of the buildings and especially the walk way from up stairs there is mold and dirt just hanging! The water bill is out of control it rises every bill i get and the water quality is disgusting the water comes out flimy and greasy it is gross! i payed my rent on the first of every month and never paid a late fee but i could never get a work order filled in a timely matter! I was told hey renew your lease and hey we will throw on 20 dollars to your rent that is all i get great special! No No No thanks!

I have read some of the reviews and wonder if the people that are complaining are the ones that don't pay their rent and act all stupid when they go into the office. I have lived here for 4 yrs. There has been 3 managment companies and many changes in staff since my first day. When I first moved in the place was cute, then managment let everything go. Anybody could live here, felons, illegals, etc. I have noticed a huge difference in the last year with the new company. Landscaping is getting done, repairs are getting done faster, not as much riff raff in the community either. I realize things dont happen overnight. So far, I am please with the effort and work that has been done. I love going into the office. The people there are so helpful. I don't know how they can always keep smiling. The place is affordable and on the up.

horrible place to live !! horrible costumer service! and horrible people! wen we move here place wasn't clean, there was soap residues on both bathrooms, sunflowers seeds on the carpet etc... and had roaches. some neighbors have no respect of the from of your apartment they will seat and smoke in from of your apartment. and you can hear them screaming and something talking from the inside of the apartment. there's absolutely no courtesy! that's without saying that the costumer service on the front desk is basically .... you are on your own and they are not responsible for anything. can't wait until my lease is over!
