Highlands at Spectrum Apartamentos

This place is the worst place I’ve ever lived. Staff is rude. Theft is common. Charge you for everything, and lie when you leave so they don’t have to pay your deposit back. They are desperate and awful.

They have scorpion issues, they will do everything to not refund your deposit to you even if you leave it clean and in good conditions...police visits all the time, no one respects your parking space either. Save your self a headache.

From the time I moved into the apartment, the maintenance & overall cleanliness was atrocious but especially the maintenance. My move-in date was pretty much what I expected because I wasn’t given a tour first before signing all of the papers so when I got into the house and saw was; the microwave was broken & the countertop was burnt, there was paint on the burners, paint on all the fixtures, leaking bathtub faucet & sink in the kitchen faucet. MOST IMPORTANTLY!!! No shower head for the first... four days! Visible MOLD & mildew in the shower & in the cabinet underneath the sinks in kitchen/bathroom! It appeared that it all had been used just before I got there. There were boot marks on the floors & the bath tub was never even cleaned! Or like it had been cleaned but then used for a week? & now this happens.. I hope highlands is embarrassed If they’re reading this. I guess I just don’t have to clean when I move out & the next person will have to deal with it like I did but then I’m wondering what can I do to even lose my deposit? I find it very odd that I have called for four months now & all the sudden you guys show up the next day like it’s not a big deal. Four months late, to fix the leak for the moldy sink.. gave me a plastic faucet & did nothing about the mold. Impossible to get ahold of the front office & don’t seem to care when you do. Avoid the headache. Lee mas

Don't waste your time or money. Yes they are doing improvements in apartments but walls and floors are super thin. Remember office space knock on the walls and see if someone responds back. If you're negihbors smoke you will enjoy the smells of cigarettes and anything else even if your apartment is closed up. Because windows and door seals suck. Entire time living here we have had a Scorpion problem even if though they bait almost every month and we have tried sealing up bad seals . Stray cats... and pigeons every where, they allow pets but only half of owners clean up after them. Found out from other people in community there neighbors do drugs and they did nothing about it for months even though he is getting high in his place because of his neighbors. Heard he was moving because it. Yet his neighbors are still there. Rent constantly rises every renewal by hundreds. People always slamming doors and car alarms going off. And good luck with parking. Moving out in March and can't wait. Lee mas

I was looking for an apartment in many different areas of Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe even Ahwatukee and none of them compare to what I found here in Gilbert. The Highlands at Spectrum apartments were the cheapest but the largest in square footage which really surprised me! They have the nine foot ceilings and huge roman tubs in the both bathrooms. I just love how well they keep up the grounds and how friendly all my neighbors are. This place really does feel like home and I plan to stay here... even past my 14 month lease :) Lee mas
