Four words. Do not do it. From my experience, this place is the worst. First off, the place is old, old and did I mention OLD. Carpets are worn, sliding screen doors won't stay in the track and they're constantly adding rouge and lipstick to the place to make it look better to try to compete with much newer apartments built or being built. Plus, the floor-based heating system is ancient and inefficient. Either it's too hot, too cold, but never just right. With all the new apartments
...available in Redmond, plus the apartments being built, you would do yourself a huge favor by going with one of the multitude of other options.
This place is owned by a soulless corporation that will treat you like a line item on an Excel spreadsheet. They will lure you in with a cheap annual rental agreement and raise the rent each year until they can catch up with the rent levels of other area apartment complexes. My neighbor who is moving out next week after four years living there told me they raised the rent on him significantly each year. And they wanted to do it to him again this year. After meeting with one of the office agents and explaining to them that he paid his rent early each month for four years so why would they raise the rent again for his growing family. The GOR agent basically told him that they didn't care that he paid his rent on time each month. Either he signs the new lease agreement or move out. He decided to move.
In my case, after nearly two years of paying rent early each move and not paying rent by the 6th day of the month, I received a "notice to vacate." I couldn't believe it. It was the tail end of my rental agreement and the writing was on the wall that this place was not the place for me. I eventually moved out as well.
In the case of Gates of Redmond, the notion of "Buyer Beware" certainly applies. Proceed cautiously if you choose to do so at all - which I wouldn't recommend.
