Do not move there
August 9, 2024If anyone does not want to lose their peace of mind, please do not move into this property. During the year of my contract, the air conditioning did not work for 3 months, I reported it by all means and they never solved it, my family and I had a very bad time, cockroaches are a terrible problem, they come out everywhere, there is no proper maintenance to eliminate that pest and in general when you need a repair they are inefficient, and they go up to many days later. There is also a lot of ...vandalism, they stole parts from my car and a friend had his car stolen. Also the water service is regularly suspended every week and they make excessive water charges.Property Manager Responded

No hot water, Bugs, Unprofessional
October 26, 2023As soon as we moved into the unit they gave us it had bugs and more than half of the electrical outlets in the apartment were broken or falling off the wall. And if you go to the office and try to make the people do their jobs they get mad and find any excuse to evict you! Horrible place. Wouldn’t waste your time.Property Manager Responded
October 30, 2023Kati, Thank you for your feedback. We offer weekly pest control services and I am happy to put you on the list to be exterminated. Please email me at managerbriarforest@abbeyresidential.com or call the office at 281-957-6517 to tell me your apartment number and I will make sure you are on the list. I'm also available to discuss your maintenance concerns. Please reach out. Thank you!- Kristin
Review from Apartments.com
Incompetent Management & Poor Maintenance
September 11, 2023The property is severely understaffed and severely out-dated. For 4 months, our building clogged with sewage rising from both tubs. Each apartment is either infested with roaches or rats. Horrible experience. Currently attempting to have my lease terminated.Property Manager Responded
September 14, 2023We are currently not understaffed, Dexter, and our property is clearly not outdated. Additionally, it is not accurate to claim that every apartment is infested. We respectively disagree and believe some of these statements are inaccurate, however, we do value all feedback and will continue to work diligently to provide the best possible living experience for all residents. If you would like to discuss your concerns further, please contact us at managerbriarforest@abbeyresidential.com 281-957-6517. Thank you.
Review from Apartments.com
A place to live.
May 17, 2022It’s a place to live. Not the absolute worst I’ve ever experienced but definitely not great. Roaches everywhere no matter what, HORRIBLE management, get ready to have every maintenance request completely ignored, parking is a nightmare especially if you want to have guests over, constant boiler/water/electricity “maintenance and shut-offs”. But it’s got some gates and it’s a place to lay your head. Oh yeah, if any water gets spilled ANYWHERE you will IMMEDIATELY start having mold no matter what ...you do. And be prepared for management to ignore it completely.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Learn To Live without hot water
March 12, 2021The boiler breaks all the time and we are left with no hot water. Management doesn't even bother to provide an eta for completion. They just assume it is okay to leave tenants without hot water, or no water. Another big concern is roaches. Roaches run rampant in this complex. I spray Bengal every six weeks and that's still not enough to keep the roaches away. I have lived here for three years and the reason for that, is I like the location which is close to Westheimer and the rent is decent ...for the area.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Flooded out of my roach infested apartment
May 10, 2019Living here was a terrible experience. My apartment was infested with roaches, maintenance did nothing about it although they would fill out work orders as done. Same thing for our front window that would leak every time it rained. they never fixed the problem, only painted over it. Mold started growing in the apartment when I was there, they refused to even test for it, they just painted over the evidence. I was also flooded out of my apartment from plumbing issues, They refused to take ...responsibility and offered us absolutely nothing and were very rude, I had to call corporate to be moved to a different unit, while I stayed in an airbnb for a week. The insurance that they make you buy also doesn't do anything in these circumstances. on top of all this the leasing office NEVER answers the phone. Almost as if its their policy. They also stopped taking packages and opted for a stupid service that makes you package arrive a day later. I have had multiple package stolen from my front door. Washers and dryers break all the time and don't get repaired in the laundry room,Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Very helpful and action oriented
May 9, 2019These ladies are amazing. People will always have issues wherever they live, and what matters most is the response of the staff. This staff is AMAZING! ALL OF THEM! I have had to encounter them all in dealing with little things upon moving in 3 weeks ago; Paloma, Darlene, Audrey, Milli, Melissa and Laura. They are all pleasant and attended to my needs...I am getting a new dishwasher and Hector, the maintenance supervisor goes above and beyond to ensure that I am happy. Thanks to all of you who ...ensured that my lil issues get resolved. I really appreciate all of you.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Move in
May 30, 2018My Bf just moved in a few days ago and it was not bad at all. I have not had an issue with parking yet, but I guess its because he has a sticker. The staff was nice and friendly. I also met the manager and she seems nice too. I don't know why all the bad reviews but oh well time will tell.Review from Apartments.com
the real about the apt
February 3, 2018well moved here about 5 mths ago... yes parking is a bit of a pain ...these apts are old fashion so yes your going to have some problems ... the maintenance guys are pretty cool with the response time ... its needs a lot of landscape that needs to be taken care of ... well lets just say its more of your neighbors,the area you stay in the apts and the time you put in to make it work for you... so fa so good ... but the water bill is VERY OUTRAGEOUS.... office staff is cool and understanding. but ...its by the book here... so if your not ready for rules ... its not much i can tell youRead MoreReview from Apartments.com
Office Staff
November 21, 2017I seldom go to the Leasing Office to ask a question. However, every time I do I run into a wall with Kerry. Let us begin in the beginning. When I first visited the complex, she talked to me and said that there were units coming up vacant at the end the month. She showed me the model apt and I agreed to fill out an application. I waited for her to call me about the application status, but she never did. Therefore, I stopped by the complex to find out and bring the admin fees. I came back about a ...month after that to sign the lease and give the insurance dep. She was ok on that day, but afterwards, Kerry began to show her dislike toward me. I moved in, dud the check-in inventory, found some problems, and filled out online orders for repairs. One of them was checked, but still today I think it is not working properly, at least not as it should be. For the other repairs, I had to fill out at least two requests for each one of them and when I got emails saying that the work order had been closed, I went to the office and was told by Kerry that she had to close the online orders so that maintenance could pick up a hard copy of the request and start working on it. Another week went by, but no repairs, so i contacted the manager who took care of it right away. I felt Kerry was ignoring me because if the manager took notice of it right away, why could Kerry not do the same? Since these requests were overlooked by Kerry, I have dreaded going into the office to deal with her. The few times I have been there, she plays the mind game that she does not understand what I am saying. I might not be from where she is from, but I speak a type of English that is mutually intelligible, so I do not get what her problem with me is. Perhaps the answer is that some of us have to members of her tenant fan club so that we can be dealt with more genuinely and not be looked at as if were unimportant.

November 8, 2017The only positive about the apartment is its size and price, which is why I gave it 1 star. Other than that the staff is completely incompetent and will give you the runaround. I was told I would get one apartment and then shortly after I was given another. In the 3 months that I have lived there, my air conditioning went out 6x. The staff lies to you with no remorse and when you try to go higher up they stick with each other and continue to give you the runaround and lie. The parking is a ...disaster, there are nowhere near enough visitor parking for the number of apartments. Although they have designated areas my mother's car was towed at a place with no signs of any kind. When we called the tow company they stated the leasing office was supposed to inform us of additional parking and procedures which they never did. Don't do what I did and sign a lease and get stuck with their lack of accountability and professionalism. If you move in here, you will not get the apartment you wanted, they will force you to settle for what they give you, you will wake up to an apartment-wide outage, so you never know when the entire complex will be out of power, you submit maintenance request that gets fixed half way. If you decide to have visitors their cars will get towed for being in any area, whether there are signs posted or not. The staff and regional manager do not accept accountability. DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!!! SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!!Property Manager Responded
November 10, 2017Thank you for your feedback. Please contact the community manager to discuss your concerns. We want you to be comfortable in your home, want all your maintenance issues addressed to your satisfaction and would be happy to review the parking policy with you in more detail. Again, thank you for your feedback and we look forward to hearing from you.

Prospective Customer
June 12, 2017Property Manger, My family is relocating from the East coast and seeking housing in the Energy Corridor area. Last week I visited several Apartments on Eldridge, and was getting pretty frustrated with the same cookie cutter attitudes and lack of professionalism with the Staff of those Apartments..... Then, I had the pleasure of meeting one of your staff members who was like a ray of SUNSHINE!!!!!!! This lady greeted me and allowed me to ask questions without cutting me off. She was taking notes ...as I was telling her what we are looking for.. She was very efficient ! After our conversion she took me on a tour of the property........This lady should be a tour guide.....she REALLY makes a person feel important!! First impressions are important and how people are treated really makes a difference......My husband and I will come back for his tour.... This lady is Miss Melissa, she was AWESOME!!!!Property Manager Responded
September 26, 2017Thank you so much for your feedback. We appreciate it!
