Tenant Reviews for 2801 WALNUT BEND LN

Rude lady front the start trying to view the apartment but Sandra was great made me feel at home so I gave it a shot... Oooo my Lord talk about Roach infestation in apt#163 on 1-16-2014 I went into the apartment to move my things, turned on the lights roaches were everywhere in the closets kitchen washroom bathroom, bedroom it's closet plus it was supposedly new carpet put down well roaches coming all out of the walls an underneath the carpet it was horrible ... Then they tell me they will spray or I can cancel the lease agreement so someone else could move in how sorry😬 so I was only in lease for 4days

These were my first apartments upon moving to Texas. I signed a lease rather last minute and sight unseen. It wasn't the greatest place in the world, but it wasn't the worst. I always like to review with a pros and cons list: PRO- Unit size: I had a 2/2 and it was pretty big. Perfect for roommate situations especially. Both rooms were the same size and had their own bathrooms. Vaulted ceilings were nice, porch was spacious, plenty of windows and natural light. Location: Close to everything. Right off of Westheimer, Beltway 8 is just a couple blocks away, there's a shopping across the street with a Target, Randalls, Ross, and a few other shops. Although it is close to so much, it's also set back far enough from the street that it's not super noisy. Pets: Pet friendly and allows large dogs. I have a 75lb boxer mix so it's always a challenge to find apts that allow big dogs. That's really the primary reason I decided on Walnut Terrace. Safety: Thought I would touch on this briefly. All apartments are going to have issues, cops called occasionally, etc so I can't say nothing happened here. Just before I moved out, I did see someone's car on blocks, but to my knowledge, that was an isolated incident. Other than that, I never saw or heard of any crimes at all. I am out walking my dog at all times of day and night and I honestly never felt unsafe. No noise complaints either. CON- Bugs: Crazy bad, uncontrollable roach infestations. There were colonies of roaches everywhere, even living in the bedrooms and closets. We had them spray multiple times, laid boric acid powder in all the lower cabinets, sealed cracks with gel, and put roach motels all over the place but it barely helped. Parking: There is none. At all. Insulation: Also none. Our electric bills were like $200/mo even set on 79 degrees because the walls are thin and there are cracks all around the door and the windows don't seal shut that great. At the time I didn't know it was that bad, but now that I'm somewhere else paying half of what I used to, it made me realize how much money we were wasting. So that's my run down. I didn't deal much with maintenance or the office staff so I can't speak on those issues. I minded my own business and paid my rent and had no problems at all. I did vote no recommendation, however, based on the roach problems and terrible parking.

Ok When I first moved in walnut terrace it was good for the first 3 months and then,....... roaches started to come out the wood works! every kind of roach u can name they have! I called the office for the exterminator and he came and exterminated but to my surprise MORE ROACHES came and I kept my unit SPOTLESS so upon my 3rd time calling them and complaining they said "no it isn't going to kill the roaches its just going to make the infertile" so I still had roaches just infertile roaches! oh!!! so eventually I requested to switch units! and what to my surprise after 2 months more roaches!! and the staff are a joke I absolutely cant take the stuff!!! RUDEEE! Someone tried to break into my truck often and the "security officer" is an absolute JOKE he literally sits in his car around the corner and hide and then tried to flirt with me!! oh and lets not forget the wild animals cats possums and raccoons that chill there!! and the air is always breaking!! Walnnut terrace is falling apart and it need to be renovated ASAP! and them the gate button I PAID 30 fpr they asked for that back upon the end of my lease and I asked them were they gonna issue me a refund and they said no! and keep in mind my old neighbor who isn't apart of the police department or even a a security guard walked around with a gun in his hand out in the open!! walnut terrace has the potential to be a great place but it is a waste is a waste of time and money! no bueno! and u can hear your neighbors fart and breath!! oh yeah and let me not forget that the residents will steal your clothes right out the dryer or even the washer! so if after all this if u still decide to rent there please get u a washer and dryer in your unit!

FIrst of all i want to say if you really want an honest opinion about this particular amartment complex, I am here to give you the truth. I normally dont ever do Surveys nor do reviews but i just had to give feedback on my experience @ walnut Terrace. I'll start with the good. The staff were nice. The maintenance was on time the 3 or 4 times i asked them to come and repair. The community is farely quiet with no problems with yelling and horse playing around cars for the most part. Well... Thats about it with the Good. The bad.... Here is goes i moved out of the apartments and prior to that they posted my rent balance on the internet which i pay there instead of money orders and it was different than the bill that they sent me so i didnt pay it and NOTE: that was SUNDAY the 2nd so i couldnt call them and ask them whether the bill was correct. So the following day they charged me a $100 late fee... (?) out of bitterness for some error that they made. I could of easily said i'm not paying it but just to avoid negativity i paid it. ROACHES= RUN. LOTS OF CAR BURGLARS. LOTS of stealing going on. So be extra careful. Ive seen with my eyes after waking up and seeing people cars stolen. Broken glasses and stolen rims and electronics. But other than those problems this was an okay learning experience and *knock on wood* i thank God my valuables werent stolen. God luck people.

lived here for a handful of years and although i'm ready for a change i dont understand so many bad reviews..i personally was never burglarized or anything like that and the years ive been here only heard of three such cases (no apartment complex can be completely free from crime)i was never scared living here i walk/jog for exercise at all times of the day never had a problem..there is always convenient parking close to where i stay..the maintenance is quick and i almost never had to call again about the same problem..the office was helpful and knows who i am personally which was pretty nice..they also have little give aways for residents on occasion if i had to complain i would have to say i did have a roach problem when i was in a smaller apartment nothing could get rid of them..but since moving to another suite i haven't had that problem.i think it had to do with a dirty new neighbor and vents

I wasn't going to write a review FOR THIS apartment BUT IT HAS TO BE DONE!!!...This Apartment is Trash....you get what you pay for basically...my apartment was located in the front of the complex facing the street..literally right by the gate...and my apartment was broken into 3 times in six months...the management had no sympathy for me..told me i was a victim of the holidays..2nd time when I tried to get out of the lease...they wouldn't work with me at all...the third time I literally had to almost threaten a lawsuit for them to let me out..outside of that horrible experience...there is only one exit gate..which would stop working like once a month...yeah after they closed the 2nd exit gate...they removed the dumpster.. so if your located at the front of the complex..you have to walk on the other side of the world just to empty you trash out...or they will charge you $25...Security?...yea some rinky dink cop who acts like hes patrolling the unit while texting on his phone...which was never present until my 3rd breakin the day i was moving out..they fool the residents but parking a white car with tented windows at night and call that Security...the only good thing I have to say about the apartment Is that it taught me to invest in my safety...Rent is cheap..but its not worth it..

My husband, myself and our two small children have lived here for 2 months and are breaking the lease to get out of this hell hole. This is not a place to raise children what so ever. The break ins and riff raff that are here are ridiculous. Two very high on crack indiviulas approached me with my children and hassled me just for a cigarette which I did not have. If you choose to live here..buy a gun. The pet dopiest is outrageous along with the guidelines. You can't even have a goldfish without a $200 pet deposit plus when you move out you have to pay a sanitation fee for said goldfish. Seriously?! But luckily if you don't own a pet you can always adopt one of the MANY possums that are on site. One for each of your family members. Don't worry about the staff they wont mind it. Or if you don't want a large animal you can always settle for the million roaches that come equipt in your new place! They spawn like crazy so if you kill one on accident, don't worry, about 5 of its babies will be right there to comfort you when you sleep, shower, make dinner. Make sure to buy alot of bug spray, the mosquitos are worse here than camping in the woods. Oh and don't touch the walls, the paint that is used is interestingly cheap. Even just the oils from your hands will leave a "stain" which will not wipe off. Just all the ain't will wipe off the wall if you try ti clean it. And don't count on appliances that function properly. Over all this is a total ---- hole and you'll be paying over $1000 just to get out of your lease. So save your money and trouble. Aberdeen apartments down the street are nice.

DO NOT MOVE IN HERE. WORST APARTMENT COMPEX EVER. When i moved in seven months ago, i thought I'd made a good decision. I can now say it is one of the biggest mistakes I have ever made. There have been multiple car break ins, apartment break ins, and my roommate was robbed at GUNPOINT just inside the complex. He was not the first or the last, either. All the leasing office does is send out a notice and remind you they are not responsible if anything happens to you. The leasing staff is rude,unhelpful, and extremely unprofessional. The "gym" has 2 out of 8 machines working. The roaches are relentless, and the "pest control" is a joke. They squirt under your sink and behind your toilet and leave. There are tree roaches coming in through the cracks of this cheaply built apartment complex, and tons of little ones crawling around everywhere. I keep my apartment clean, and spray raid constantly, and nothing helps. THE WALLS ARE PAPER THIN. i can hear every sniffle, burt, grunt,footstep, and whisper from all sides of my apartment. No privacy at all. The cheap price is not worth living in this hell hole. When i moved in i was not expecting the most luxurious apartment ever, but I was at least expecting the basic necessities an apartment should provide: privacy, safety, a helpful staff, efficient maintenance, no roaches. This apartment complex provides none of the above.This place is not fit for a bum.

I have lived here for 8 months, and have been the target of a horrific break-in and complete destruction of my apartment. The management could not have been more uncaring and unconcerned with my safety or even replacing the window that was broken in order to complete this break-in. As a single girl, I could not be more terrified here. The price is nice, yes. But the lack of safety is NOT worth it!!! My apartment was torn apart (and keep in mind I am right down from the model apartment they show daily). How someone did not notice this break-in is beyond me. I honestly think management just is not concerned as long as they receive their rent checks every month. I have lived all over Texas and in all of the major cities (i.e., Dallas, Austin, and now Houston) and I have NEVER felt more unsafe and more scared for my life. Currently, I have had to move all valuables out of my apartment (as my lease is not up until Sept.) and plan on moving ASAP once my lease is up. Please keep in mind, that although I am extremely angry at the management at this property, this in no way is clouding the fact that this property is just not safe. And no one, no matter how affordable the rent, should live in this kind of fear.

Hell NOOOOOOOOOOOOO Aint nobody got time for that! roaches
