Redpoint Columbia

The gates haven't worked for most of the three years I lived here. If you don't have any other option it's not too bad though. Just be careful about walking around at night. You should also develop some handyman skills b/c their team is overworked and understaffed.

This property is the worst in Columbia, the front office is smarmier than anything I’ve ever seen, they have no ethics at all. DO NOT LET YOUR CHILD LEASE HERE.

This property is horribly mismanaged. Have lived in many USC off-campus housing communities and this was by FAR the worst. Management literally ignores you once they have your money.

Me and my roommates moved in 2 weeks ago. We signed our lease last year because we were told it was nice here and the tour made it seem great. It is actually awful, and the worst place. On move-in day I was told my carpet needed to be replaced and that they were going to come by and do it that week, so in 2 or 3 days after I moved in. They ended up not coming and fixing it and I didn’t get it done until a 3 days ago. When we moved in, our place was filthy. Nothing was cleaned and there were dead… roaches found in our apartment, which we still find bugs till this day. Also, there were underwear and food left in my drawers and my toilet did not have water in it, which it wasn’t working. Maintenance doesn’t come in a timely manner and nothing gets fixed. Then, today we were sitting in our kitchen and there was a loud knock at our front door. When we looked out our peephole, there were 2 random guys standing out there. We were not notified by Redpoint of anyone coming to our apartment and doing anything, so we were suspicious. The 2 guys continuously banged on our door and even tried to mess with our lock to see if they could get it opened. These guys also didn’t say anything like carpet cleaning or maintenance or for anything of that matter. Not to mention we were also told by some people that lived here that people were going by doors and trying to act like maintenance so they can get into peoples’ apartments and they were caught with stealing. Redpoint obviously didn’t say anything about that either. Anyways, we started getting nervous and so we ran out our back door to the clubhouse to talk to someone and tell them what’s going on. They made us feel like the stupidest people. They told us that we shouldn’t worry that it’s just the carpet company, but I just got my carpet fixed a couple of days prior. There is a lack of communication between the 2 companies, so Redpoint doesn’t know whose apartment the company has went to or not. Also, we just got an email this week saying the pool will be closed for 4 weeks due to upgrades. They could’ve done it a little later, not in August when everyone wants to be out there and were paying for it. It is just an awful place to live and I definitely do not recommend living here ever.
