Great Location

January 4, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
This neighborhood is so conveniently located with so many entertainment options close by. Travel is easy with 77 so close by and you also have the light rail within 2 blocks. Finding great restaurants is never hard from this location either.

I hope this saves someone else from living here

September 26, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
Looking to live here? Go ahead and save yourself the misery and sign elsewhere. My lease just ended and I can easily say this is the WORST place I have ever rented from. They regularly do not answer the phone during business hours and take about a week to respond to any email, if they even respond at all. Submit a maintenance request? They’ll either leave it on hold for months or just go ahead and complete it without actually fixing it. When you ask why it hasn’t been completed, they will make ...
up some excuse… that is if they even respond at all. Don’t bother getting your hopes up about receiving your deposit back within a timely manner. I have emailed, left voicemails, and even Instagram DMed them and I still have yet to hear back from someone about my deposit. My friend finally got hers back after 5 MONTHS of consistently calling the office just for the check to BOUNCE. Absolutely unbelievable. The parking is an absolute nightmare. The spots in the lot are so tiny that people regularly have to park in two spaces to make their car fit. This then causes for even less spaces to be available. The spots are so narrow that there have been a few occasions where I have had to get out of my car through my passenger seat. I used to park on the street until my car, along with multiple other residents’ cars, got broken into. Oh but you can get your own parking space?! It’s only an extra $600 a year to be 3 inches closer to the building and it’s still not gated. What a steal! The trash area deserves its own paragraph as well. It is CONSTANTLY overflowing. One time it piled up to the tippy top for a month and when my roommate called the front desk and said it’s been out of control for a month now, all the girl in the office said was “well it’s actually just been 3 weeks”. Her mom ended up calling the city and they determined it unsafe and told the office they had 48 hours to clear it out or they would be fined. Of course the area was then cleared out immediately. As for security, there is none. At the bare minimum, the building doors should be able to close all the way but that can’t even seem to happen. The complex consistently reeks of weed, your packages will go missing, and they rarely bother to clean the hallways. Toward the end of my lease, the quality of tenants also significantly went downhill as I started noticing drug deals happening left and right.

Hello, we're sorry to hear your experience with the previous management company did not meet your expectations. Recently, new management and new maintenance has stepped in. We have made lots of changes in and around the community and look forward to continuing that moving forward! Thank you again for expressing your concerns with us.

Worst experience I had ever renting

August 16, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
Positive- Location Negative-Communication with Apartment Complex (Don't return phone calls, they will tell you one thing verbally and if you don't have it in writing they don't honor it) - Emergency Work Orders (had a work order that was on the list of emergencies - can't get into apt because of the deadbolt suddenly malfunctioned and was told it's not an emergency and to pay for it out of pocket and we will see about refunding you) - Parking (Super tight parking, good luck finding one after work ...
hours, Unless you pay for covered parking or park in the handicap like others do for free because it's not enforced) - Policies ( seems to be there to protect them not the tenet, No Smoking Building and complained that the neighbor is smoking weed and it smells like they are smoking it in my apartment and on entire floor hallway, and was told nothing we can do you have to call the Police) - Noise level (Thin walls and doors and some neighbors don't understand that they are thin) - Common area clean (They don't clean the common area frequently, had dirty diapers left in the hallway for over a week, dogs hair all over, leaked fluids from garbage bags all over)

I have had a great experience so far at Crest Gateway. I moved in August and have no complaints. I emailed the office with a few questions after move-in and got a quick response from the staff with detailed answers. They were very through at move-in and made sure I understood the details of everything I was signing.

Grateful for my time at Crest Gateway. Leaving the apartment life on a high note before moving into my first house. Staff was always friendly and accommodating, maintenance was efficient with work orders and kept the grounds clean. Looking back, I would have taken advantage of the YMCA and reserved parking options sooner and I highly recommend them to new residents.

Great experience so far. Excited to finally live at the community after renting so long ago. New office staff came in but were super knowledgeable right off the bat about my paperwork and the community. Smooth move-in and love the reserved parking space.

I have been a resident at Crest Gateway for just over one year. I recently graduated from school, and was searching for a community that offered affordable rents, comfortable living space, a clean building and friendly staff. I cannot speak highly enough about the property management team, as they continually exceeded my expectations from the very beginning. They have an open door policy and will promptly address any concerns in a timely and professional manner. I feel at home at Crest Gateway, ...
and just renewed my lease for the 2nd year! If you are looking for a community vibe and a comfortable apartment to call home, look no further than Crest! -Isabella :)

This is the worst experience I have ever had with a management company. If you enjoy multiple phone calls and emails just to get the run around then this is the place for you. Very very difficult to communicate with management. They are incompetent and otherwise unable to do a very simple job.

Property Manager Responded

July 10, 2018
Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback about your stay at our community. As we have stated on your previous review, it is disappointing to hear that your perception of the Crest community and management team has changed so dramatically upon moving out. As we have discussed on multiple occasions prior to your departure, our community requires a 60 day notice-to-vacate in order to legally terminate the lease agreement. Our policies remain consistent for all residents and this 60-day notice was clearly stated in the lease that you signed for the apartment before moving in. While we strive to be as helpful to our residents as possible, we cannot simply break the terms of the lease agreement. Please reach out to us at (704) 366.9086 at your earliest convenience to discuss how we can turn your experience into a positive one.
