Prairie View Apartments

I recently toured Prairie View Apartments and was very impressed with the community. The grounds were well maintained, and the landscaping added a nice, peaceful feel. The units I viewed were clean and spacious, with thoughtful layouts and plenty of natural light. I also appreciated the quiet atmosphere and how friendly the staff were, Trevor in particular was very helpful and informative during my visit. The location is convenient, close to shopping and dining, yet still tucked away enough to... feel residential and private. Overall, Prairie View left a great impression and seems like a wonderful place to call home. Lee mas

Do not rent!!! Office staff LIE as bad as Car SALES people. Fairly nice apts. that are bigger than most in Vancouver. Signing a LEASE does NOT protect you from a rent increase during your lease. There is a section in the lease agreements about rent increases occurring each year at the standard market rates which usually change in Apr/May. So your lease is just a piece of paper with NO protection. Yes, they have a fenced dog park that is NOT maintained properly because of dog feces not being... picked up by the resident or grounds people. Oh, also, they REFUSE to pay for bags on the p/u stations for picking up dog feces. All the kids activities are NOT paid for or sponsored by the property...all donated by local churches. Yes, they have a Head Start on property.
Also, many apts. suffer from black mold issues and the office staff ALWAYS say that it is the tenant's fault for being dirty...they'll sometimes address the mold, but YOU have to pay for it over and over. Have had issues with Child Molesters being in very close proximity to even living on site by being snuck in by a resident. Latest event occurred June/July of 2016...on all local news stations. Yes, there are pet restrictions as to breeds, but somehow there are restricted breeds living on property. Even though I have been served with a move out notice, these statements are true and not malicious. I feel it is my responsibility to let future residents have some knowledge of what happens here and not the beautiful advertisement. Lee mas
