“Roach infested, has rats and maintenance does not come out to fix issues. Also office staff lies about the apartment you will get since you can't see it until all fees are paid and it's time to move in.”

“I like the staff especially the maintenance team MIKE is friendly and effective in solving the problems when he come to do the work order pressed he try to ask if there anything else to be fixed and make sure the resident is happy . I highly recommend him as a good employee in maintenance department”

“Unprofessional staff and management making this apartment worst for living. Never had such experience with such bad behavior staff in my life ever. So any one planning to move, please think twice and read all the review about staff”

“No parking, can't back into your space. If you're an resident you can't park in visitors parking even if there is no more parking available. You pay bills but will get towed if you don't park outside the complex. And Brenda in the office is very rude, haso a very bad attitude. Bad management for a high price. Not worth it.”

“No parking. You can't have visitors on the property after 10:00 p.m. If you do they will tow the car. Then on top of that every resident only get one parking permit for guest every three month. So this is a good place to leave and feel like you are in jail, leaving with your parents, or don't have family/ friends. Really- even if you have family they have can only visit by planning in advance because they need a permit which you only get every three months. I haven't been here for a year- yet It's crazy and money down the drain there's dog ---- all over the place- don't walk in grass and watch the sidewalks.”

“I' am ready to leave as soon as our lease is up! The first year was smooth, no loud noises, friendly & helpful staff & clean. The past two years it has been a headache, mainly with finding parking! Though they have recently established assigned parking, the office staff has their "favorite' tenates, in which they have more than one covered parking. Now I suppose because a tenate watches the leasing agents child that empowers her to multiple parking passes as where other tenates only have two parking passes. We also have an enforced towing company so if you don't have the appropriate sticker on your car it will be towed! We have about 12 parking spots in different parts of the complex that is for our visitors. But if there is no parking for a resident when they get home (happens more than less) then they have no choice but to park there leaving spots for any visitors limited. It's just become a nuisance. Other than that, the property is well kept and the complex is mainly all updated.”

“freaking apt. towed my car when i freaking live here and parked at the freaking guest area, like wtf??? They said i have to park my car at the freaking parking garage? does it even make sense??? Pests are all over my unit and i didnt complain about it and now this is what i get? freaking hate this apt. never ever going back here.”

“DO NOT LIVE HERE. THEY FIX NOTHING. THEY TOW YOUR CAR EVERY WEEK. ---- THIS PLACE ---- THIS PLACE ---- THIS PLACE.”

“i been at briar court for years and i have never been so unhappy with staff. i reported that my heater wasnt working the guys came out, that night it was fine but the next day it was broke again. so i reported it again, it took them 4 days to come out. when i called the leasing office one of the ladies had a attitude with me and said the guys are gonna come out when they get a chance. not only the problem with but the parking is getting real bad. every time i come home someone is in my parking spot. idont call the tow company because i know times are hard for people but i call the office the girl told me to get home early.WTF!!!!!! IM VERY UNHAPPY AND WILL BE MOVING AS SOON AS MY LEASE IS UP”

“i was going to rent here i was told that i was approved, they called a few days later saying that i do not make enough money to live here. i make at least 1600 dollars a month THEY WANT YOU TO MAKE 4 X'S THE RENT and they did not accept me, and to worsen more my day they stamped the money order where i needed to get my deposit back and no where in the stores nor banks will accept it. these people are liars and they will tell you that they will help you out, when it fact its all BS dont believe everything that they say. the world is so messed up that everybody wants to win. and now i have to wait 30days for them to return my MONEY. PLEASE FOLKS!!!! DO NOT LET THEM STAMP A MONEY ORDER WHERE THEY KNOW THERE ARE NOT SURE IF YOU ARE APPROVED. AND DO NOT LIVE HERE AT ALL. THESE APARTMENTS ARE WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY TO STRICT. DO NOT RENT HERE.”

“My wife and I moved out because she wanted a one bedroom with washer dryer connections and they didn't offer them...only in two bedroom. Only problem we had in the year we lived there were the -------- that lived 20 in one apartment and took up all the parking with their work trucks and private vehicles. I went to a police equipment store and bought a pair of handcuffs and would dangle them from my mirror then park along the curb. No one ever messed with my car. The ladies in the office were very nice, I never did meet the owner, and it was a hassle to take the trash to the dumpster...so my wife and I would put it on the hood of the car and drive it down there when we were on our way to work. We'd still be living there if they hadn't tried to raise our rent and had a one bedroom with W/D connections.”

“I have lived here for quite a few years, and I have found it to be a great place to live. It is quiet and peaceful and the other residents are friendly. The surrounding area is not as nice as the complex itself. The staff is nice enough and the maintenance crew is adequate when you have a problem. All in all this is a great place.”

“I have been here since hurricane Katrina devasted Louisiana in 2003. Briar Court Apartment was a blessing to me after Katrina and it still is. I do not submit to the owner so do not speak for me I am capable of speaking for myself. The owner has been very good to me and I thank God for his kindness. I would recommend this apartment complex - no it is not perfect because people like you are here if you don't like it here move. Go purcahse your own complex and run it like you see fit.”

“In my two years at Briar Court Apartments we never had any type of problems. Papa John was very nice as well as his staff. I recommd it hightly.”

“totally mis represented, just got in from work night shift had to park in the back 40 and walk a 1/4 mile to my apartment, NO security, no respect for assigned parkin, this place SUX I wont be back when lease is up. I dont give a damm about much else except for quiet and I want my paid for parking spot under the canopy up front, why dont you answer the phone? why wont you tow these punks? manange your place, it's gone to hell over here.”

“I hate this place. The appearance is FALSE. The office staff is awful, they never remember maintenance requests, and are not willing to work with you on your rent payment even though we have all just encountered a HURRICANE. I was quoted $115 late charge to pay my rent (just a remaining $200) a week late. I was told that since the complex has an individual owner he is unable to have FREAKING COMPASSION for what we have all gone through because our payments are how he is able to keep up the property... LMFAO!! I have had a hole in my ceiling for 2 weeks, my toilet was broken for weeks, and the list goes on!!! The walls are thin, you can hear water going down pipes like a waterfall, and can smell what your neighbors are cooking. I don't particularly enjoy the smell of my neighbors food. My floors are disgusting, my dishwasher barely works which has been "fixed" many times. The foundation has obviously shifted so I have to shove my door open and slam it shut. I was reprimanded for an incident when some guests of mine broke some ground rules though the office staff or neighbors don't have a problem letting other children or residents break the same rules. I will be moving out as soon as my lease is up... too bad I still have 9 more months. I DEFINANTLY do not recommend Briar Court.”

“I LIVED IN BRIAR COURT FOR SOME TIME NOW. I DO AGREE WITH SOME OF THE REVIEWS ABOUT THE OWNER AND OFFICE STAFF, BUT THE OFFICE STAFF WASNT ALWAYS AS BAD. THERE WERE TWO GIRLS N THE OFFICE WHO WERE VERY NICE AND SWEET. THEY ALSO WERE PROFESSIONAL. NICOLE WAS ALWAYS ON TOP OF THE GUYS TO GET THINGS DONE AND SHAWN WAS VERY SWEET, SHE DIDNT MAKE UP AN EXCUSE SHE TELL IT LIKE IT IS. THE PROPERTY WAS VERY NICE N QUITE, THE GRASS WAS GREEN AND THE POOL WAS OPEN CLEAN. SINCE THEY LEFT THE PROPERTY HAS GONE DOWN AND THE UNITS ARE BECOMING VACANT EVERYDAY. BUT ALL AND ALL ITS NOT SO BAD EVEN THO THEY RENT IS KINDA HIGH AND THE GATES ARE BROKEN. THE GRASS IS NOT GREEN AND THE OFFICE STAFF ISNT AS FRIENDLY BUT.....”

“I have lived in a lot of places and this one is by far one of the Greatest. the People here are so nice. There are kids that play in the pool and people walking their dogs. I love the atmoshere of the gated community and the friendly staff. the few Maintance problems i have had the guys came that next day to fix them. thats a great turn around time compared to two weeks. No there isnt enough parking but yeah the living arrangments are great. its close to everything that you need in life...rigth between two malls and close to several grocery stores and resturants. you cant beat it with a stick and only pay what we pay...thats awesome!”

“First of all, the owner is the skidmark on America's underwear. Yes, "JOE" you are a womanizing, hateful, self-centered rotten old man. Then there is the office help. How are you going to run a business if you can not communicate with the residents. Point blank. Hire employees that have U.S. Citizenship and speak English. This place is going downhill faster than a fat guy falling down Mt. Everest. It took 3.5 weeks for the maintenance crew to fix a leak that originated on the roof and leaked through the ceiling down the ceiling fan soaked the carpet in my DAUGHTER'S room. She is 3 yrs old. Only when I complained about the safety of my child did they front office get off their lazy, well you know. Then. they claim to add upgrades to the apts when in reality they install items that should come standard in apts. Like working appliances and flooring that is not warped or cracked. But if you as a renter want standard amenitites well be prepared to pay top dollar. Do not forget about the pool and laundry facility. The pool was closed over the July 4th holiday and when asked why the pool was closed the management simply stated that it will be open on Monday July 7th. WOW, just in time for parents to go back to work and not be able to take their kids to the pool. What an excellent way to run an apartment complex. The laundry facility only has eight washers and eight dryers. On any given day atleast one of each will be broken and more than likely it is the one that has been broken for more than two weeks. This place is run by adults with business mentality of a three year old. If that old man was not chasing so many skirts he would not have to stay away from his own complex for fear of a lawsuit. In the past month, 14 apartments have been vacated by long term residents that just can not tolerate the living conditions any longer. The inside of these so-called apartments is atrocious. The cabinets are merely holes in the wall with hinged plywood over the front. The floor are never cleaned when residents move out. Both ceilings and floors are warped from years of neglect. This place should be torned down and started a new. Until that day, I highly advise someone looking to rent here to go to nearest grocery store and ask for some cardboard boxes and build their own equivalent of Briar Court Apts. Good day.”

“The property is now a dump and they steal! The apartment are waaaaaay over priced and the service is not good. I would definitely recommend renting somewhere else, because the turnover in the complex is so fast, that you don't know who is management and who isn't. The place is run by illegals and illegal working in the office. I will be getting my girl and family out soon! I wouldnot recommend staying here and it seems they try hiding under the Christian umbrella. Lord help! They should practice what they preach. I have also witnessed prostitution on this property, so I am assuming to be in with the owner, you have to submit to himm, which most of the illegals and Hurricane Katrina people(Loiusiana)do. I don't see how this guy is still a Landlord in Houston. I hope my boys RAT him out. More like a slum lord.”

“Don't move here! If you want all of your things taken or stolen, then be my guest. Rent at your own risk. Don't believe the HYPE of the Management. Also don't believe the Christian umbrella, just a front............I will move to a classier place.”

“I have lived for 9 years and every since the owner has moved in aka ------ does not care about anyone but himself does not care what he is doing with this property does not know the apartment rules he should be reported to the Texas Apartment Association does not have properly trained employees no manager several people are moving including myself. I have never lived in a apatment complex where the owner has lived and made my life hell and for all the residents.”

“The owner, AKA ------, acts like Nero, and rules the same. His office helpers will serve you up to the tow truck company without consideration or warning. Any vehicle in your paid assigned parking spot will be towed if plates not registered with office. Registered vehicles have been towed, but the funny, cute, incompetent little girl in the office will compensate tow fee so her boss won't learn she screwed up because he gets very, very mad. He constantly yells at his little brown helpers, loves to hire and fire short Guatemalans. An equal opportunity offender, his residents receive the same offensive treatment, especially single women. Management office is a revolving door of incompetent cute girls, the cutties are just that, cutties, Nero rules here. Maintenance is a joke; requests should be made via certified mail. Never ending unfinished renovations; cheap rusty Mexican made faux French style wrought iron clutter everywhere. 12 foot entrance gates with 5 foot gaps on sides. Access code gets your vehicle in and riff-raffs walk around gates. Barbeque grills located in puppy poop run. Mulch and landscape vegetation taken out and replaced by weed infested lava rocks. No sense of design coordination, this place now looks like a product of the Boss Hogg and Fred Sanford School of Landscape and Architecture, a waste of money financed by steadily increasing rent. When I moved in over ten years ago, these apartments were the best; professional landscape, nice, simple, quiet and occupied by professionals. Now the worst place I ever lived at, riff-raff infested. I joined the "moving out at end of lease club." Complex has a steadily growing number of vacant units, no waiting here. This place, like the whole neighborhood is headed in the same direction as the Gulfton ------ apartments, free English lessons may be offered to fill empty units. Bienvenidos, Se Habla Espanol”

“The owner lives on the property and is a horrible, mean, spiteful and has no class. If you make him mad he will have the office people throw you out! He is very descriminatory, he gives his "friends" no rent increase and makes up for it with the rest of us. I am leaving as soon as my lease is up. Beware of where you park, even if it is your spot, if the office doesnt have that vehicle's information they will tow you. It cost me $300 bucks!!! I only recommend this place to people that want to live under ------'s rules....BEWARE!”
