Great Hills

I am so very happy to finally move to Great Hills. The first time, I visited the property I fell in love. It is located on the beltway, very quiet and so beautifully maintained. Yvette Shafe, my leasing consultant has been truly awesome. Her professionalism and knowledge of human nature is extraordinary. By asking the right questions, she knew what I wanted and was able to deliver the right apartment. Then, she made the application process so painless. All the paperwork was done and everything… required was dealt with weeks before moving day. I picked up my keys, finally walked into the apartment I plan to make my home for a long time and was happy to see that the maintenance crew did a great job getting it ready for me. Great management! Great team! Read More

I have worked with many apartments and have had the best experience here by far from application process to move-in with Great Hills. Yvette, the leasing consultant, has been an absolute joy to work with.

The unit has a gorgeous view of the woods which I am so excited about and is in a great location of Austin. I highly recommend Great Hills Apartments if you're thinking of renting.

It was my first apartment after graduating college. I chose it as it was the cheapest in the area and a 5-8 minute drive to work. With it being the cheapest, my appliances are very outdated. I just looked at the pictures, and my stove and fridge do not look like that. My stove looks to be from the 90's and my unit did not come with a microwave as it shows in the pictures. My dishwasher has not worked at all since I moved in. I have emailed them and placed a work order for it but it never got… looked at. I just gave up and will be moving to something bigger and better in August. My sqft was only 499, but you get what you pay for I guess.
Note: if you are ok with outdated appliances and want something cheap, or are just starting out, this would be a good first apartment but do not recommend staying more than one year. Read More

While I lived here, I was robbed at gun point at my front door. I requested additional security and the office would not comply. They first said that cameras at the entrances were too expensive, then said cameras would create a false sense of security. Well, I had zero sense of security. There is very little light along the green belt where people can easily hide. The staff later sent out a letter for tips on how to be safe, that made it seem like I could have prevented the crime. When the cops… came, they said they had been in my exact unit 2 years before (not the murders other people have referenced).
You pay a ton of money in fees to move in (especially if you have a pet), but none of it is returnable or covers damages.
The maintenance staff was generally helpful. Read More
