“Horrible staff. Horrible apt. Horrible area. Horrible cockroaches everywhere. Horrible mice eating into my food. Horrible. Horrible. They stole my depsoit and claimed I hadn't cleaned thoroughly enough. I walked the apt with the office manager and she never said anything. Liars. Thieves. Dumbasses.”

“These apartments look nothing like advertised. Nothing is ever fixed and Cory is basically a waste of management but he's not alone the whole office staff needs to be replaced. I'm in the process of attempting to have someone from the outside investigate the complex bc something truly needs to be done. For what they charge better living conditions are needed. And the crime is out of control.”

“So disappointed with these apartments. They charge an arm & leg for some ran down bs and it's not fair to the ones who are paying their rent faithfully but can not get them to fix anything. My air has been broken for several months now, my tub is cracked getting water all over but maintenance came looked at it said he would be back and it's a month later and I still haven't saw him back. I fell like my apartment is falling apart and the only answers they provide is THE OWNER DOES'NT WANNA SPEND MONEY ON THE PROPERTY. NOVEMBER CAN'T COME FAST ENOUGH”

“I don't know why they are advertising pools when this property does NOT open the pools. The pools have not been open all summer. When I asked Ana why she stated the owner doesn't want to pay for the pumps. False advertisement!!! Management is so rude and disrespectful to the tenants. Everything is broken and they never come fix it when you make a work order. I live in a building where I am the only tenant and the rest of the building appears to be abandoned, as well as the majority of the buildings. When people move out they never come to clean the apartment. Three people have moved out of my building since I've lived here(that should have been a sign) and nobody has come to clean the apartments. This is sad! It is roach infested and nasty. I cannot wait until my lease is up to move and I'm not taking ---- with me!!! DO NOT MOVE IN THESE APARTMENTS YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!”

“I live at crosswinds and this is what the pool looks like as of today, June 15, 2016. It is not sparkling blue oasis, it is a green and black cesspool.”

“Like other reviews, its really dangerous at night here. Gun shots, Drug dealers, etc. The office staff is horrendous, the worst I've ever dealt with. I tried to report my a/c being out, and the manager hung up on me. When I confronted him in the office, he pretended like it never happened (despite the fact he told me his name and said how may i help you when i called) like how insane is that? Don't move here unless its this or being homeless. Its that bad. Roaches and insects are a never ending problem and maintenance is awful. I also got my car towed after it only being parked 32 hours on a weekend because I didn't have a parking sticker yet ( a policy that wasn't in effect when I moved in, I didn't even realize how stringent it is) Tried to get some sort of recompense from the manager, and got nothing of course. Running away as far as I can after I leave here.”

“Horrible place !!! Do not rent here manager will be nice to you only when you are singing the contract otherwise they are super rude”

“Overall this place sucks. They look descent and quiet in the day time but when it gets dark it's gun shooting, arguments and just unsafe environment. Management don't care, they change payment monthly and take your money. I've been here 2 months and haven't received any mail until I received a notice on my door stating our mail is being held at the outside post office so I can't get mail at my apartment. AC haven't work since I've been here.”

“So, the trash was overflowing the containers for at 9 days..all 5 dumpsters. The tenants receive a notice expressing that WE ARE RESPONSIBLE for it because 90% of the tenants don't pay their MANDATORY FIXED WATER BILL! Now, the trash has been picked up 3X a week but all of a sudden is OUR FAULT. From now on, when your rent is paid only, Cory Cunningham will apply to your water bill 1st to prevent the trash bill from going unpaid!! The BEST PROFESSIONAL MANAGER EVER!! Keep in mind 40% of the units are vacant! These are some DUMPS and need to apply for FEDERAL ASSISTANCE since they are mishandling funds!”

“I don't want to discourage anyone that's interest in moving here, but I will express my experience here. Rent: Goes up every renewal for $50 Water: Fixed fee for 1 bdr 25.55 & 2 bdr 75.55. You must wait at least 30mins between showering. NO HOT WATER Electronic Gate: works sometimes and there's been mornings that we were unable to exit for work! However, the directory doesn't work and they want the tenants to walk to the gate to allow their visitors in. Driveway: has Potholes that you must dodge unless you're in a 4x4 Appliances: Outdated don't get trick my the photos that are shown. Maintenance: you can place a work order and they will come look at the issues. However, it's always an OUTSIDE CONTRACTOR that NEVER COMES! A/C: freezes up and they want to control your thermostat. Paint: The CONTRACTORS leaves paint on the mirrors and cabinets so it's looks UNPROFESSIONAL! Mailboxes: have been broken into and management isn't thinking of repairing them. You will need a PO BOX for important mail. Pool: opens per Management discretion! When it's open, the hrs are 3-8pm! Keep in mind that this is Market rent, No Sec 8 nor Tax Credit. Management Personnel: are friendly until you start bringing issues to their attention. They require much from tenants but arent doing their job to live up to their slogan "There's No Place like Home"! So, if you want to live here, come see for yourself!”

“Disgusting,nasty apts. They Dont fix anything in your apartment. Roaches practically live there. Management does not know what they are doing.....DON'T MOVE HERE please!!!!!!”

“The best advice I would give to anyone is DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!! Yes it's quiet but at night you have idiots breaking into your vehicles or vandalizing them. The security gates are never fixed and some mysterious way your mailboxes are always opened. Management is rude as hell and the potholes will tear your vehicle up!! Worst apartments I have ever stayed in.”

“Worse apartment complex EVER!!!!! Please do not move here. My A/C would always break. Maintenance SUCKED!! They would patch it up and the next month it would be broken again!!! I had problems with insects. My brother came to visit while I was living here and late one Saturday night, someone broke into his vehicle and stole his CD player, and damaged his car pretty bad. The apartment complex could not do anything about it. The manager at that time acted like she did not care. The manager that took over in 2009 was the worse!!! she was very RUDE! PLEASE be careful because they will say you owe them once your lease is up and put it on your credit report. RUN as fast as you can away from this place!!!!!!!!! Also, the pictures on there website of the complex looks NOTHING like the actual apartments.They are old and runt down. SOOOOO glad I don't live there anymore!”

“PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ DONT MOVE HERE!!!!~! THATS ALL I HAVE TO SAY”

“these apartments are bad as hell and dirty as hell they have rats in there and the workers there are lazy and they steal out your apartment. I came home and my window was broken and the way my apartment is set up no one can break in or jump the fence. Do no move there at all. and the rent goes up every 6 months not worth the price”

“If you want your car broken into it's the perfect place i had mine broken into twice in one week...There was sewage leaking in the parking lot..”

“Crosswinds is not the newest or prettiest place in greenspoint, but you cannot beat the staff. The manager really goes out of her way to help residents -she helps them by clipping coupons, job fairs, and recipe sharing - who do these things in todays world. my apartment is nice and big with built in shelves. i love my home and my neighbors”

“I lived at Crosswinds Apartments for 8 years I will be honest with you. Crosswinds used to be the apartment of all apartments in the Bush IAH area. I moved there when the apartment start going down and then it was still better than normal. And then a neighbor downstairs start smoking dope and spitting all over the stairs and I complained. The office management gladly moved me to the apartments closer towards the front. All hell broke loose. I was single and living along and I was being harassed by ------ rats They would put food on my car, someone keyed my car and one guy knocked on my door and told me he did not like me because I did not come out to socialize with the rest of the residence. I ll be honest. I worked at a local hotel (night audit) when I left in the evening to go to work you would see the same guys outside drinking beer and smoking weed, when I returned home around 7:30am you will see the same guys still up, still smoking weed and drinking beer. So why in the heck would I want to socialize with the like of folks like that??? I worked; they didn t end of story I had a piece of mess living next door to me. Good as he felt, he would beat his wife (pregnant wife) and the officer manager would call ask me about it, because the wife would come to the office with bloody, swollen lips and black eyes. (I became friends with the office management staff) the man next door to me would try talking to me while his battered wife slept next door and his brother came by one day, high after smoking dope and left a pot on the stove burning. If I did not call 911 the apartment would have burn down. The man caused so much damage to the kitchen from that (small) fire it cost the apartment a pretty penny to make repairs. My apartment smelled like smoke for weeks! Grrrr! No doubt the guy knew I reported him and he so-called paid me back for telling... One morning I returned home to find someone had broken into my apartment. My old television (no remote) and a leather jacket were stolen. Not a big lost, but I felt violated, and could still feel the presence of the invader in my apartment. After filing a complaint and since I have lived there for so many years the apartment manager allowed me to have burglar bars installed Once those bars were installed I began seeing bags of garbage tossed in my patio and gum stuck on my burglar bars. At this point I knew it was time to go because Crosswinds Apartments begin renting to trashy people. I no longer live in Houston, Texas but there was an apartment complex (Haverstock) not sure how to spell it (not sure if it is still there). But this apartment was section 8 and the little criminals would squeeze through the Crosswinds fence or break our security gate and pour in to create havoc like cockroaches Crosswinds just need to clean up their act. Throughout the years I have met some of the nicest office managers and some of the most obnoxious ones. I do not miss Crosswinds Apartments and I pray if you are living there and hard-working that you will find somewhere better to live soon. Take care!”

“I just have on thing to say THE NEXT 6 MONTHS OF MY LIFE LIVING ON THIS NASTY APARMENTS IS GOING TO BE THE MOST TERRIBLE MONTHS OF MY LIFE I HAVE A 9 MONTHS AND THE APARMENTS ARE FULL OF ROACHES I FEEL SO BAD THAT I CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT ALL THIS BUT IF YOU ARE SMART PLEASE DON'T RENT HERE AND IF YOU DO YO WILL SEE THAT I'm NOT LYING TO YOU ALL”

“IF you live here, I recommend that you have alarms on your vehicles because they are breaking into them. Second, I recommend that you have a gun to defend yourself because people get robbed here and nothing is done. This apt complex is not worth living in and it is not safe for kids. Drug trafficing and theft goes on in the middle of the night while the security is on there phones while they are sitting in there vehicles. My vehicle was stolen here and nothing was done to help recover it. They also try stealing my other vehicle but didnt because it had an alarm. I do not recommended it to nobody to live here especially if you have kids.”

“Today Is Jan.18,2010 And My Neighbors on the third floor just had a home invansion at gun point and it was just kids in the apartment they were so scared and crying so i thinking about breaking my lease and moving am not gonna risk my family so i would not recomend anyone with a family to move in these dangous apartment .....”

“I know that a lot of people have complaints, but I have lived in Crosswinds Apartments for about 1 1/2 years. I have had no problems that were not easily taken care of. The staff have been nothing but kind, and the maintenance personell have been very helpful and respectful. They watch out for me and my apartment. I am very happy with my choice of where to live. I will say this, I think anywhere that you live can be good or bad depending on how much you put into it. If you give the management and staff the opportunity to know you and you give them the respect that you expect from them, then you will get the same in return.”

“I have lived at Crosswinds for 4 years now, I love my apartment!! The grounds are always clean and well groomed! The rent has always been reasonable! There is a property down the street that causing alot of problems for the whole area but the office has done a wonderful job keeping that trash out of our community. In the 4 years that i have lived here there has been several managers attempt to run Crosswinds but the manager that is here now is has been the best! I am proud to call Crosswinds my home”

“I lived there for 4 years, at first the management was greal good, maint. was ok, and very safe, I moved out in 8/2010, no screens, was broken into twice, and next door neighbor had a gun, and just about 1-2 times a week he and his live in had a fight, and fire guns up in the ceilings, fireplace, and accross the walkway. Security was a joke. it was not safe. You could not walk out tothe parking lot in fearing if you were safe. The maint. would not fix nothing water links for 2 weeks, also the plumbling in downstains bathroom was bad. when the building stop off, from upstair you would get the other people (waste)Feces over flow from your toilet. The management would not do nothing, just keep collecting rent. From rating 1 to 10- its s a 1. Also your cars was broken into a lot of times, with alarms on, and security just laugh.”

“When i went in to look at an apartment they greeted me with a smile. the office staff was very nice it was hot outside so they offered me some water through the tour the pools where nice, and the apartment that the woman showed me was very clean nice and it is an apartment i would like to live in in the fituere. I talked to a resident on the way out they said they have been living here for years and they said it is a wonderful place to live the hole staff is awsome about keeping up with workorders and the grounds stay pretty clean.”
