Aventura on Briar Forest

I moved here on June 15, 2024 and the apartment that they knew for a month before I came was not ready at all. The apartment was dirty, had roaches, bugs, and cosmetic issues. I had to stay in a hotel for 4 days. When I confronted management about this issue they suggested that they move me to another apartment on the 3rd floor. They also said that they would give me 150 dollar credit toward my rent. I had already spent 400 dollars on hotels and I had to pay movers for a 2nd time to move my... things from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor in a different building. They then said they could offer me a 250 dollar credit but that's all they could do. At this time I had already spent 650 dollars. I paid movers to move me to the third floor and in a matter of a few days I had issues with the air conditioning. I have a service dog and I had set the thermostat to 75 degrees at 7:00AM. I get home at 6:00PM and the temperature was 87 degrees. I was told that the issue was the air conditioning was low on freon. Here we are a week later and the same issue. I set my thermostat to 77 before I left for work and I come back at 6:00PM and the temperature in the house is 86 degrees. I've contacted maintenance and have not heard anything. I'm currently writing this review sitting in an apartment that is 82 degrees in the middle of the summer. This has been the worst experience I've ever had living in a place. Read More

DON'T MOVE HERE IF YOU CAN AVOID IT!! The only camera is in the front of the office building, nowhere else. Their apartmentsare stuffy. They paint over dust from previous tenants. Large packages are mixed with other tenants in a room by the front office, which is a headache. It's like shopping in Ross, sometimes you can't find your package. Other tenants move your packages around to find theirs. Speed bumps are huge, destroying car shocks. If you go over 7 mph it will shake your soul. A lot of... raccoons live in dumpsters at night. (I counted 10 one night) My apartment is not far from the dumpster. The towing company harasses the tenants and visitors. The apartment is 100% behind them. Over the course of 8 months here, I've had my car towed three times for irrelevant things. Keep up with the laws because the apartment front office doesn't. The towing company finds ANY REASON to tow your car. Read More

There is no crosswalk to the park, so the benefit of its proximity is basically useless. Lots of dogs that bark endlessly

Great community, I feel safe here, love the interior and amenities. Family-friendly and close to many stores/restaurants.

For me, the location was great and if they had not renovated it, I would have remained there another decade or more.
