Parkford Oaks Apartments

I lived here for 3 years and really loved it. The office staff was always so super sweet. The way the property is laid out with the trees and the little path in the middle gives it so much charm and character. I loved that it is such a small community too. Even though it is older than most of the places in that area, I had no bug issues, which you come to expect from a lot of properties. That's a big deal for me. Also, in the 3 years I lived there, I think I had one maintenance issue. ... Granted, it was a pretty HUGE one with the plumbing (hence the 4 stars and not 5) but they handled it well. I was already moving out of my apartment when they finally started getting it under control, but it was not because of that. This is just a 1 bedroom only community and I really needed more space. Otherwise, I'd still be there. When compared to similar properties in the area, you will find that the pricing is perfect. Yes, I know it's not updated but neither are some of the places around there and they still cost way too much.

If you are looking for fancy upgrades with all the bells and whistles, this is not the place for you. But if you just need a nice clean place to live, with no drama, no high crime in an amazing neighborhood, then go for it. Read More

Worst experience ever. Keep dreaming about your deposit when you move out as they won't give it back even if the apartment is cleaner than you receive the first time. It is very old and yet they keep increasing the rent rate every year without any reason.

I left my room clean. I was being charged for "Heavy carpet restoration/deep furniture mark/carpet repair/strech" $119.
Well, should landlords be expected and absorbed such kind of cost? The more you let the same tenent to rent for a long time, the more wear and tear would be expected. I have lived in that apartment only for 1 year and 9 months. The property itself is very old, plus the mangaer Rosa isn't nice. When I asked her to send me the picture of the carpet, she said she is busy and she... couldn't give time for my request. Bad customer service for ex-tenants. Read More

In 2 years living here summers are awful. HVAC issues all summer and it is starting again. Same maintenance guy who checks toilets. Not a real HVAC person patching things together to work at minimal levels. Cannot wait to move when contract is up. They need to invest in new units instead of cannibalizing parts to patch things together.

I would like to respond to some of the negative reviews about Parkford Oaks.I have lived here for 30years as have several other residents.Others have lived here for over twenty so we have seen all the ups and downs of the property.We did go thru two and half years of bad management but now we have some of the best managers that I can remember.They are working really hard to get the property back in shape and lease to good residents.We will be having resident events again which are always popular... .There is a nice pool which is always popular in the Summer.The location is outstanding without having to pay Uptown/West Village prices.I am proud to call this my home and to live somewhere where people care about you.
