COLLINS JUNCTION

Great place to live... if you don't value your privacy. I have lived here for years now, and they have issued "inspections" at least once every 2 months. Sometimes they come week after week. They've replaced nothing, found nothing broken, and updated absolutely nothing every time.

Convenient location, extremely inconvenient management. They will even come into your apartment, look at the mold that is growing from behind your mirrors, on the walls and windows sills and tell you it's "just… mildew".

Also don't expect to feel safe or at home. Stolen cars flood the parking lot, the mailboxes are constantly broken into, and the "valet trash" company has littered garbage from the pool, to the trash compactor, to basically everyone's doorstep and courtyard.

Your kids can't ride their bikes here or play with chalk, you can't install your own blinds or window coverings to help block out the sun because the blinds they have installed won't block out enough light for your kids to take naps. Read More

This place is a JOKE. The "Manger" and "Management staff" do not exist. No idea how this place is rated so high when the other reviews are also negative.

The current manager and the management team is completely unqualified and uninterested in their jobs. They simply collect the rent and nothing else. If you have maintenance issues, noisy neighbors, etc., you’re only your own. If you’re in a recently renovated unit, your pipes might not leak brown/yellow water or 8 legged visitors. For the… rest of us in older units, we’re at the mercy of our neighbors to not be stupid. It took 2mo for a fridge door to be replaced, 4wk to get a lightbulb replaced because my upstairs neighbor left their sink running and it burned out the light socket below. Note, we were told a follow-up inspection would be done for additional damage but after at least 15 messages/inquiries to the manager, no one ever followed up. Now, we have a soft/mushy wall and ants. Surprise!

Petty crime is common - the bank of mailboxes has been ripped into once, resulting in unsecured mailboxes, vehicle prowling/vandalism is all but expected. My car has been rummaged through twice, my boyfriend’s bike was stolen right off the porch (snipped bike lock and all).

While completely neglecting their responsibilities and declining to do bare minimum in regards to maintenance issues, crime, vandalism, etc., management has no problem adding random required amenities and slapping an extra $25 on our rent. Note, these fees don't get waived if, say, the amenity isn’t available. For example, the garbage compactor was broken for a good month (which has happened, in shorter durations at least 3x since I moved in, resulting in mountains of garbage around the complex).

If you want to reach out to corporate, good luck. There is exactly ONE way to reach out to corporate (using their “contact us” message portal) – you will receive an acknowledgment from their system but that is a no-reply@ system and that’s it. No way to follow up, no way to reach out to a specific person. I have sent three emails to date using the corporate office’s system and have only rec’d an acknowledgment. Read More

I wrote a review before but I do need to write another review because I feel like I have to pay fees for services that I don’t use. Trash service is $25/month is ridiculous. I live alone and don’t cook so I don’t have much of garbage...what I meant here is they need to let tenants choose if they want to use the valet garage service or not instead of forcing them to use. For water (utilities)charges they charge are charging me more than what i paid when I was living at a single house family. … Be prepared you will have to pay for others, not just for you. I was on vacation (out of town) for 3 weeks but my utilities bill was higher than previous month which is crazy. I tried to get some clarification on how thy calculated the utilities fee and the management couldn’t answer...they tried to avoid my inquiry. The unit is very small and old. Basically if you pick your place by location then go with this apartment, otherwise, AVOID Read More

This community was the absolute worse apartment complex that I have ever stayed in. They have a no smoking policy but never enforced it. Cigarette smoke was constantly coming into my apartment from my neighbors. Also they're charging me over 400 dollars for move out fees for simple wear and tear (ie cleaning). There was no damage, I cleaned the apartment before I moved out and they still want to charge me an insane amount of money for something they legally have to do between tenants. Stay away… from this complex at all cost! Read More
