Perfect Match

August 11, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
I had a wonderful experience at 42 Magnolia Place in Columbia, SC! The property is beautiful, well-maintained, and conveniently located near plenty of shops, restaurants, and other places to enjoy. I especially want to recognize Brett, the property manager, for being so professional, helpful, and responsive. He made the experience easy and enjoyable and was always willing to assist when needed. Overall, I would definitely recommend 42 Magnolia Place to anyone looking for a beautiful and ...

Poor Management and Experience

June 9, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
I have lived at 42 Magnolia for over a year. In my year here, management has changed, and to say the transition has been rough is an understatement. The management is completely unresponsive to inquiries, regardless of the avenue (Phone, Residence Portal, or Email). I have been charged multiple fees I shouldn't have been, and when I inquired about them, crickets... On multiple occasions now, our apartment's internet service has been de-bulked and cut off due to management's failure to meet ...
its obligations. This is unacceptable when my spouse works from home. It is nearly mid-June, and the pool is still closed and disgusting. Communication with residents is passive-aggressive or non-existent. I have serious concerns about whether the other fees we are charged every month are actually going to the services we pay for, like pest control. I could not, in clean conscience, recommend anyone move here, which is a shame, as the location in Forrest Acres is what makes it attractive. The rent is too high for the quality of the living space, and the management doesn't help in making it any easier to stomach when they are so poor.

DO NOT LIVE HERE

May 14, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
WARNING: DO NOT LIVE HERE What have y’all turned this place into? This used to be the premier apartment complex in Forest Acres. Now you have a resident getting arrested because they fired a gun shot in the parking lot after a bunch of people got in arguments. The use of weed is rampant (in a smoke free property) to the point that you park your car and as soon as you get out you smell the weed. You have the outside of apartments torn to shreds because people don’t take care of it. Heaps of ...
trash bags left in parking spaces after valet trash picks them up. Plus charging residents fees that aren’t in their leases and not fixing it (yes current residents make sure you know your lease and utility charges, they will make you pay for things you aren’t legally responsible for and only fix it if you reach out). Do better this is absurd and you should be ashamed that you as the property management team turned a once esteemed apartment complex into a run down unsafe place! DO NOT LIVE HERE

The management team is terrible. They send nasty and aggressive emails to residents. They don’t answer emails or phone calls. Find somewhere else to live. Want to see pictures of the things they do, check the google reviews

Except for one year when I moved to the beach for one year, I’ve been very happy here for 11 years, and I hope to stay here for many more. I’ve lived in 3 different apts as my circumstances have changed and I‘ve loved each one! The apts are bright & sunny with big windows flanked by trees &greenery, the buildings are beautiful, the amenities are great ( wonderful pool, gym, tennis courts, outdoor grill, a common room used for special events, appliances continue to function very well, an ...

When I made the decision to move from Maryland to Columbia, SC the most important decision that I had to make is where I was going to live. I visited about 4 properties before I got to 42 Magnolia 5000 Forest. After I toured the property, I knew that I wanted to call this place home! I moved into my unit on June 7th and it's been wonderful! The leasing staff made the process seamless from beginning to end. Tyra, specifically, was extremely helpful with all of my questions and concerns. The ...
