Do NOT EVER EVER EVER RENT HERE. THERESA ROSE, THE PROPERTY MANAGER IS THE BIGGEST B*TCH IN THE WORLD. SHE HAS PROBELMS OF HER OWN AND TAKES THEM OUT ON EVERYONE ELSE. SHE MAKES EVERYONE MISERABLE. It's truly a shame as the apartments themselves are quite nice... but this woman, Theresa Rose.. is an absolute HORROR!

I looked at these apartments when I lived in Houston. I wasn't that impressed. I just moved to Birmingham and am renting with http://realestate.al.com/alabama/shelby-county/birmingham/for-rent

The complex is okay...but management lacks in customer service. I have had numerous run ins with the wife who runs the complex, and can verify every reviewer on this site's consistant comments. Renters should take action. The management enters your home, and does not leave the required documentation outlined in the lease. This is highly illegal and unethical. She will cross the wrong renter one day and will loose her liscence. Rude rude angry little woman! Good luck getting anything done without a struggle.

I'm no longer a tenet here. Everything's nice until I have to actually talk to managment, the guys are nice but if I call the office with a problem, I get twenty questions about how I must have done something wrong to cause the problem. One time last year she stood outside of the complex and interveiwed anyone coming to visit a friend or family member, it was so humiliating. I just wish she would take some sensititvity training, or anger managment, people skills, something. She'll look in your car and tell you it's messy, so rude I can't belive it. If you like conflict move here!

Per the previous comment about the "wife" running the front office - If you want to be treated like you owe your apartment complex more than your rent, live here - she is HORRIBLE!!! She is overly defensive and any minor complaint turns into a brawl. She has no idea what customer service is, I can't bleieve she runs that office. It's too bad, the owners are quite nice and the property is quaint and stylish. They've done a lot to fix it up but unfortunately it won't help as long as she deals with the tennants. The parking situation is impossible, there are no dishwashers or ice machines, and any minor request will be ignored. I rent so I do not have to deal with structural issues, and here they see it as your problem. There is CONSTANT construction that goes on until 6 pm sometimes later. My car has been both towed and broken into. I had high hopes for this place - it's really a shame.

We as residents have done all that we can to be civil with the omner/----- and all that they have done is treat us wrong, charge for things that are not our fault, not fix leaks, and everything else under the sun that a landlord should know better than to do. The units are falling apart and roaches are everywhere. Washing machines do not work and when they do they charge way to much and clothes come out of the dryer damp. DO NOT RENT HERE, YOU WILL REGRET IT. Plus, bikes get stolen regularly as well as cars getting broken into.

I've been a resident for FAR too long thanks to an ex. The owner has his wife running the office and she's VERY rude. There is also constant construction in the units, so if you are here during the day, it's very uncomfortable. It's also way over priced for what you get.

I lived in a two bedroom for a year and a half and really hated every minute of it. if it hadnt been close to everything i needed to be by i would have ran screaming. Aside from every Tom, ---- and crackhead able to walk through the once gated courtyard and the basically antisocial renters, someone once even climbed the outside of my building to get to my second story porch and steal my bike. I even got to watch while one neighbor nearly burned the complex down by lighting a huge fire on her porch to "bbq" then went inside. Bottom line?... surrounded by bars and managed by people trained to hate you from a distance, you can do better.

I really like 1920 W. Alabama Apartments. Tracy the manager is really nice and is willing to cut you a deal. It is a small community so expect to get to know the neighbors. We are an eclectic bunch. The apartments are old and full of character, and each one is different. It's great.

Yes I was a resident at 1920 W. Alabama and intially I was very happy living there. The previous manager, Tanya was wonderful, she made you feel at home. The maintenance person, Vince was extremely professional and competent. All this was when I first moved in, the overall management that headquarters at the Fountainview location are rude and totally unprofessional. They really need to get a better crew, 1920 W Alabama was home until they changed management.
