Avery at Turkey Creek

Warning: Do not sign a lease at Avery Apartments at Turkey Creek. I signed my renewal lease in February without being informed of ongoing construction at a development site right next door that appears to be a housing development. They are only in the groundwork stage right now, so construction will obviously continue for a very long time. Since then, I have experienced severe and persistent noise disturbances from heavy machinery and equipment operating daily, often starting well before the... legal eight AM threshold. I have documented noise as early as four forty seven AM, consisting of constant, relentless beeping that continues throughout the entire day, including during lunch hours, weekends, and holidays. As a work-from-home professional and homeschooling parent, this has made my apartment essentially unlivable. I cannot use my balcony, open my windows, use the clubhouse or pool, or maintain a productive work environment. When I brought this to Harbor Management Group, their response was dismissive and unhelpful. I would not recommend this community to anyone seeking a peaceful living environment. Read More

Don’t move here unless you absolutely have to. The building construction is questionable at best. The walls make all sorts of creaking, clicking, and banging noises, if you step in certain areas of the floor you can hear it creak up the walls, and the plumbing is constantly backing up for no reason. The appliances are also prone to failure.The buildings are also very drafty, poorly insulated, and ventilated awfully. Bedrooms are consistently +/-5° of the main living area.

Parking is also a... nightmare. There are simply not enough spots for the amount of residents. Often residents will have to park in the office parking, the only remedy to this is to pay for a semi covered spot which are 90% vacant. If you come home from a long day past 8:00 you will be walking a considerable distance to find parking.

In an effort to remedy the parking issue they required everyone to get parking passes as well as guest passes for guests. This would all be well but the office closes at 6, often times after most get home from work, thus you can’t pick up the passes. On top of this, if for instance you have to bring a work vehicle home they will put an 8.5x11 paper sticker right in your line of sight as a warning which takes an hour to peel off. I’ve never seen such petty treatment of people who pay a lot of money to live in an apartment complex.

You have to pay for trash pick up. No option to opt out, which would be fine if the service came when they said they’d come but it’s truly hit or miss.

This property does have its pros, the gym is nice (but lacking legitimate equipment), the outdoor grill is great (if you can wait 45 minutes for them to become hot), and the car wash station is great if you can wash a vehicle with less than two gallons of water because that’s all the drain can handle before it backs up.

This property is an apprehensible representation of what the inflated housing market is allowing property companies to do. Petty & incompetent management coupled with shoddy construction is the story of the tapestry at turkey creek. I genuinely cannot wait to move out. Avoid at all costs. Read More

I had a tour scheduled for 12pm on Saturday, I showed up and the door was locked. I tried calling and no one picked up. But yet the office is open from 10-5 and I got a confirmation email on my tour. Very upsetting, because this place was top on my list.

I had an appointment for a tour at 2:30 on Saturday. No one was in the office and I waited until 2:50 when an employee arrived. She asked what I needed and I informed her of my scheduled tour; she didn't apologize for the delay or even introduce herself. My entire tour lasted less than eight minutes and she was obviously in a hurry to leave. The experience gave what I consider to be a valuable insight into living there, if a prospective tenant is treated as such an afterthought, the existing... tenants probably are not receiving much better. Hugely disappointed but happy that I learned how they conduct business before I was living there. Read More
