Renters Reviews and Ratings
Terrible management!!! I moved out as soon as my lease ended.
September 4, 2023During my lease, it was hard to get in touch with them. They answered maybe 1 out of 3 or 4 emails that my roommate and I sent, and the front office lady wasn't there half of the time when we came to talk to her DURING office hours. We submitted a few maintenance requests, but they either just marked them as "completed" without fixing the issues or only did 1 of the many things in the work order and called it finished. I submitted 1 request when I moved in, and it was not done when I moved ...out. They were very unreliable during emergencies. They couldn't even install the washer properly, and it flooded my apartment TWICE!! When we called for emergency maintenance, they gave us a vacuum to clean up ourselves. The maintenance guy is a liar. He kept telling us that he was stopping by on a certain date, but he never showed up. Or when we asked him for one thing, he brought us something else. This happened a few times. They refused to do anything about noisy neighbors. I have contacted them multiple times about the neighbor playing loud trash mumble rap and yelling like crazy throughout the day and even late at night. They either said they would contact the lousy neighbor or just ignored my emails. This had been going on since I moved in and was not resolved after I moved out. The front and back doors have huge gaps at the bottom. When they renovated the hallway and the stairs, the whole apartment was filled with dust. When I emailed them asking if they could do anything about the gaps, they said there was nothing they could do, not even an apology. They took some of our deposits without sending us an itemized list. When I called, they gave me the run-around and provided a different answer EACH time. Overall, both the front office lady and the maintenance guy can't do their jobs well and are liars.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com

Don't move here
January 20, 2021I am currently a tenant here at Birches Apartment. I've been living here for a year and a 1/2 now and since I moved in everything that was promised to me and my family was not performed. There were roaches that was supposed to be eliminated the 1st month we got here. It's been 2 years now and now they overrun the apartment. I cannot cook without killing a dozen of roaches in my kitchen nor take a shower without seeing a roach next to me. There is garbage around where I live and also the walls are ...so thin that You can hear everything that goes on inside the apartment. I will not recommend anyone to live here it's like living in a dump. I am reporting this apartment to housing authority because of my condition and unsatisfact'ry. We don't even have a property manager to talk to about the issues and the main office refused to pick up the phone. There is a big hole in the back yard. That my husband and my neighbor have fell And it has been Reported But nothing has been done. Do not consider living here find another placeRead MoreReview from Apartments.com

LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 20, 2020I can not express how much I LOVE these apartments. The new landlord or whatever u call it is amazing!!! He treats everybody with respect and dignity plus he loves my cooking lol but he very understanding and compassionate and he actually listen not because its his job but because he actually cares. I recommend this to every college student that is just starting off and couples who are looking for their first apartment.Property Manager Responded

maintenance
March 19, 2020When I tell you , Mr Al is one of the best maintenance men around. He always come on short notice and get the job done to the best of his ability.Review from Apartments.com
Maintenance guy works
November 21, 2019I was in the office today talking to the manager. I wanted to let him know what a great job Alvin does when I call in a work order. He takes care of everything and he is very nice. I have lived places where maintenance was nasty and it took forever to get work done. I had a issue that took a couple of days and I called the manager. He was so apologetic and made no excuses. He toled me that we had the ticket and that we accidentally skipped it. He don't give you no excuses like the last one. He ...own up if something wrong. First thing next morning Al was at my apartment. I came in to thank the manager and to tell him that Al did a good job. He tole me that I would receive a survey and to answer honestly. I decided to give a review, cuz I am very happy here and love my apartment.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Wonderful Visit
October 31, 2019I am looking for an apartment for my mother that is safe and on the first floor. Last week, we went to The Birches The leasing manager was so sweet to my mother. Last week he only had an apartment on the second floor. She can't do that. He said he wanted her to see an apartment and if we took our time, would she be able to make it to the top floor. She just could not do it. He said his office was an apartment and he dd not like to show because it does not show as well as his other apartment It ...was clear he cared. I really liked him. I am from New York and I am not used to someone talking as much. He talks fast, but will gladly repeat himself. He knew my mom did not have a cell phone.He asked for my number. Today, he is the only one that called me back.He called me by my Maiden name because he did not get my married name, but I could have cared less. He apologized that he has been so busy, he said he would have called earlier. but my mother never left his mind. He let me know that he still did not have a first floor apartment for her, but she was on his mind and let me know that she was on his wait list and he was going continue to touch base. I was elated, it was clear he cared.. I told him I wanted to call his corporate office and let them know how happy they should be to have him. He said he would be happy to give the number, but it would mean so much more if I left a review so that I can share my experience with others. He REALLY wanted a review. It is my pleasure to do that for him. Mr. Lodge thank you for your compassion. I hope this review helps you in the future. You are one of a kind! Carolyn CowardenRead MoreReview from Apartments.com
I made the right choice
October 31, 2019I looked at a lot of places to live in the area. I wanted to see what I was gonna move into. Many places acted like I was bothering them and that I was taking their time like I was holding them up from lunch. I was thinking it was going to be the same at the birches. NOPE! Mr. Berry was smiling and seemed like he was happy to see me. He grabbed a brochure and I thought that was all I was going to get. He grabbed his keys. He show the picture and said we was gonna see an apartment. You can tell he ...really like what he do. I was worried that he was gonna change after I moved in because some reviews talk about the manager. He told me he was the new manager. He was not lieying either. When I come into the office, he always say how my favorite resident.. He probably say that to everybody but i dont care. he make me feel special. It is very quiet here. My neighbors always speak to me.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Mr B
October 5, 2019Been here about 8 months, I intentionally waited this long to do an honest review. Aside from the other reviews my experience here has been very pleasant. I’ve had no bug issues and no maintenance issues. The one time I had to call Maitenance was to be issued a new air filter and the request was handled in an hour or so. I rarely hear m neighbors and when I see them they always speak. The staff is pleasant and the area is safe. Lots of space to walk dogs and it’s close to the major highways.Property Manager Responded

Waste of time & money
July 19, 2019Was denied because of misdemeanor driving charges almost 10 years ago. Not because of unpaid rent or anything of that source but driving. What this has to do with renting an apartment is unclear to me...especially when you make over 3 times the rent. That $70 application fee could have went somewhere else.Review from Apartments.com
