    • Bait and Switch

      July 1, 2020
      I was told that due to the corona virus, they are doing virtual tours only. I take the tour on line with the leasing officer walking me through the apartment. It’s a nice apartment with an upgraded kitchen (grey tile backsplash, laminate marble countertops, built in microwave, etc). At the beginning of the tour, the leasing agent tells me that “this is the exact unit I will be getting.” At the end of the tour, she asks what I liked, and I specified that I liked aspects of the kitchen. Cut to a ...
      week later, I’ve filled out the paperwork, and started moving in. When I arrive at my apartment for the first time in person, it is not the one I was shown/told I would be getting. It is the same layout, but with a completely different, not updated kitchen (completely different non tile backsplash, original countertops stained from use, and no microwave). I email the leasing agent saying that this is not the apartment I was shown, and to advise on how it this will be remedied. She responds by saying that she told me during the tour that I would not be getting one of the recently remodeled units, and that my unit would not have a microwave. This is an outright lie, and now I am overpaying for the same unit other people in the building have that are nicer than mine. They have nice renovated units, but you are not guaranteed that you will be getting one of those. Also, after this whole experience, I do not feel that the staff here is trustworthy. TLDR: I was shown an apartment and told it was the exact apartment I’d be getting. When I moved in, it was a worse version of what I was shown.

    • Radco took over last August

      March 23, 2019
      I'm warning you do not move here. Make sure you look at the reviews in the last 8 months. And then do you research on Radco. I've lived here since last April and things started falling apart as soon as Radco got here. And watch out for fake 5 star reviews from people who have never actually lived here.

    • New Management is awful

      November 5, 2018
      A few months ago this was the Monument Square Apartments. It was just fine. Rent was good. Place was peaceful. When there were issues they were quickly taken care off. Radco took over and it has been a nightmare. Random eviction notices. Shoddy work on"Improvements". Noise. Higher rent (that you have to pay to pay for since they've gone paperless now. They dont take checks. They have you pay 10 bucks online to pay them rent. Dont move here. You can do better.

    • Love Living Here!

      January 23, 2018
      I have been living here for a year and a half. Monument truly offers a community feel, my neighbors couldn't be friendlier! We have a community garden that I especially love in the summer! The gas grills are also a great addition, I have made many dinners on them! Fire pits are awesome as well! Great place to call home!

    • Monument Square is such a lovely living environment!

      January 19, 2018
      My experience at Monument Square has been so wonderful! When I initially moved in, the new management team had just finished renovating my unit and the property grounds. I renewed to stay another year because the apartment is spacious and quiet, the grounds are resort like, and the pool is relaxing. I enjoy socializing with my neighbors and always get prompt responses from the Management Team! Oh and I forgot to mention the free membership at Chucktown Fitness! It's so convenient! I highly ...
      recommend this property to anyone, you can't beat the price and location!

    • Love this place!!!

      January 17, 2018
      I've lived here over a year now, and absolutely love it!! Not only can you not beat the location, but the staff is soo wonderful!!! I know if I have any sort of problem, Erin or Bart and the maintenance guys will be on it right away! The pool and courtyard are so nice, and the sense of community amongst the residents all make for it to be such a great place to live!

      January 16, 2018
      I have lived here for over a year and loved every single part of the community. The staff always goes above and beyond and I have made wonderful friends with my neighbors. I love the hammocks and especially the grill station. My dog also loves his home here.

    • New Management Sucks

      March 1, 2016
      I loved living here from January 2014 up until July 2015. The new management took over in July 2015. Prior to that, the apartments were called Charleston Arms and were managed by AMCS property management. AMCS was awesome. They did extermination every other month without fail, if there was a maintenance issue, it was ALWAYS fixed within 24 hours, and the office staff was friendly, helpful and very attentive to tenants needs. They had a monthly newsletter that informed tenants of upcoming events. ...
      The new management was horrible. I can't even tell you one of the new staff's names because they NEVER introduced themselves formally, nor did they amend my lease to state that I was now renting from their company. They lost my rent payment for July and August(luckily I had proof that I had dropped it off there), they came into my apartment without notice and one of the maintenance guys rummaged through my belongings. They never even left a notice informing me that someone had come into my apartment and when I called to report my belongingson being touched, only then did they say they came there to fix a leak. They were so nonchalant about any concerns. It was a total 360 from what I was accustomed to with the previous management. For that reason, I moved. I fully intended on staying there for years to come when AMCS was managing the property but the new company left a bad taste in my mouth and I was extremely disappointed in their service. From what I see in the other reviews, I was smart to leave.
