The Bowen

I have been living at the Bowen Apartments since August 2015. Since the change in management In March 2018 this place is horrible. The apartments are beautiful but the floors are very thin and you can hear you neighbors alarm clock when it sounds. Just an example of how thin the floors are here. It is hit or miss if you have a quiet resident above you.

The Property Management is also useless and very confrontational. Most residents here like the apartment but hate the management team. Last… lease here. Maintenance also sucks now under new management. Don’t waste your time. You are treated subpar to be a luxury community.

Additionally they gave homeless people squatting in the hallways and in residents storage units. Read More

I didn't need to rent an apartment for another 5-6 weeks when my current lease was up. So then Michael lost interest because they only had one 1 BR that they wanted to rent immediately I guess, and they didn't have another one for a few months. In other words, the timing of their availability and my timeline to move would not work out. Nevertheless, he advised me to go on line and complete an application and get on their waiting list. Why would I get on a waiting list? Why would anyone? … If you're looking for an apartment, you need it fairly soon. And if you moved somewhere else in the meantime, you would have a lease you couldn't easily break. The only reason I can think of is so they can take your $44 fee for nothing. This is waaay too much trouble, unless I am missing something ???
The apartments seem nice though and if they had one, I probably would have taken it. Still, something is not quite right. Read More

First, I can only give 4 stars thus far being a new resident, otherwise I'd start at 5.

But I can say that from the beginning of my exhaustive apartment search, the Front Office Staff (Mike, Ricardo, Monica, Teraya, Autumn-Joi, Tika) have all been exceptional in their responsiveness, answering every question, their honesty, and ensuring that the process was a smooth as possible.

The Apartments themselves are almost Hotel-Like in their design; spacious bathrooms, granite countertops, laminate… wood flooring, and the bedrooms provide plenty of space; the style is elegant and inviting. The clubhouse is by far the best I've seen in the area, with a full 20 seat theatre room that can be reserved (for free) by all residents.

One of the standout features to me, is the responsiveness of the Service Staff (Maintenance). I've dealt with their entire team during my move-in process, and they are beyond exceptional. Whether it was a cabinet knob that seemed off, or adding dimmers (i purchased) to my lights, or replacing shower heads, to just general maintenance I haven't had to wait more than a few hours for a response, and more than a day or so for resolution.

Isaiah, (Service Tech) has been exceptional in his responsiveness, communication, and assistance on all levels.Truly professional, prompt and made sure things were done right the first time and quickly. Dennis (the Service Manager I believe) has been direct, and professional with all questions, the walk-through etc and provided great support. I felt settled in far quicker than I would have normally getting all my questions, requests, concerns addressed in a timely manner and I think the team here does a great job overall.

My hope is that as time goes on, I will only have to modify this review to re-affirm what's stated above. My 9 year old daughter loves the environment here, the location to her school and proximity to everything else. The neighbors have been informative and very approachable thus far.

I'd invite anyone considering this as their next home to check it out directly, and great luck. Read More

I like some other residents have had many problems here at harmony place. When we moved in our key fobs weren't working and we couldn't get into the gate or into the building. I would constantly go to the front office about it and nothing was done. Our guest still can not get into the building without us leaving the apartment to let them in. Second everything in the apartment home breaks... Our toilet would not flush for the first 3 weeks we were there and had to keep complaining about it. Our… washing machine, dish washer, refrigerator, anything you name has stopped working. I understand that everything isn't going to go right, but the staff doesn't make it any better. They are very rude and act like they are being bothered by anything you ask. They are nice for the most part when you are looking to rent but once they get your money they DO NOT care about any questions or concerns you may have. I would NOT recommend moving here, it is not worth your hard earned money! Read More
