Belle Vista Apartments

If you value cleanliness, safety, and any semblance of competent management, run, don't walk, away from Belle Vista. After 4.5 years there, my stay is thankfully at an end. Since Dayrise Management took over a couple of years ago, the decline has been remarkable, fast, and sad. What was once a nicely landscaped and well-maintained community is now a disgusting free-for-all. Residents treat the community like a garbage dump and a dog toilet. Despite repeated complaints, management did absolutely... nothing about it. Occasionally, they’d send out a weak email reminding residents to pick-up their pet’s waste but, since there are no consequences, no one does it. Walking the filthy stairs and breezeways to my unit became a constant source of disgust and frustration. People loitering on the stairs, smoking and leaving butts everywhere, pulling up in the parking lot and unloading all their fast-food garbage on the ground.

There were at least four murders at Belle Vista during my time living there, which speaks volumes about the lack of safety and quality of tenants. Management's communication following the most recent murder was delayed, evasive and deliberately vague, failing to even mention the fatality at all.

The Leasing Office staff are consistently rude, exceedingly unhelpful and act as if your concern and presence are an inconvenience. There is a high turnover of office managers. The office is impossible to reach by phone – even during business hours when they are in the office. If you have an issue that requires their attention, you’ll need to make time to go into the office. If you go in, be patient, take a few deep breaths, and be prepared for the treatment mentioned.

The valet trash is inconsistent. The pool is repulsive. During the summer months, the area around the pool is usually occupied by loud people smoking weed and playing vulgar and explicit music. You don’t want your kids there.

The entrance to my building smelled like an entire dog kennel; the constant stench of dog waste from my neighbors' patio is nauseating.

The gate in the gated community was consistently malfunctioning, and the security measures at the clubhouse were insufficient to prevent theft of my packages. Management provided no assistance and recommended that I file a claim with my renter's insurance.

For me, the final straw for me was seeing a masked individual with a gun outside my door at 1:30 am one night. At that point, I feared my life at Belle Vista.

Do not move here the apartment complex lacks security, which causes a lot a car break in I’ve literally been here for one month. My car has gotten broken into twice every morning I get up I see a new car window busted out and literally the apartment complex does nothing about this last night. It was a pool party until almost 1 AM no security on duty and I believe that the people that broke into my car doesn’t stay in their neighborhood, but they had access to get in because the gates are always... open. No cameras around the neighborhood for safely nothing just leaving us to fend for ourselves. If I would’ve know how bad the car breaking was, I wouldn’t move somewhere else, but of course they do not tell you that when you applying for apartments. Read More

The maintenance people are very responsive and helpful! I've had a great experience living here and really like the built in desk.

STAY AWAY! MOLD, THEFT, SHOOTINGS, and RENT DISCREPANCIES!!! I am a current resident here and have only been living on this property for 3 months and it’s been the worst experience of my life. To start off, the apartment was dirty when we moved in. There was mold in my toilet and on the ceiling of the master bedroom. Several appliances were broken but the maintenance team came in and replaced them quickly. Every month there has been unexplainable additional charges to our rent. We’ve had to call... and stop by the office every single month to have them addressed and removed. Recently I found layers of mold on my bedroom window, called it in, and no one came to look at it. My car got broken into in front of another resident’s surveillance camera and no one would help me get footage…turns out TWO cars were stolen within the same week. The front office stated that they just leave crime to the police and there’s nothing they can do. There are constant shootings on property and people who don’t live here walk over and hang out because there’s no security at all. The gate is always broken. This place is a literal nightmare. My roommates and I don’t feel safe at all. Read More

I just moved in 2 months ago. I see that the management is trying to improve the property. I can’t wait to see what is coming.

Side note- I wish the residents would clean up after themselves. The staff maintains the property, but some residents don’t take pride in where they live.
