Summer Ridge Apartments

building since it smells like smoke and my 2 year old has asthma. Right away the property manager stated if i wanted to break my lease, for me this was not the case. I asked to be moved to a different unit and she could not offer me the unit at my same rate because it has an updated kitchen and she was offering the unit to the person who caused the fire. I shouldn’t have to pay more rent to be switched to a different unit when I wasn’t the cause of the fire. I asked if we could be compensated by lowering the rent for the next month since we haven’t been there for 2 weeks, the property manager said no they cannot do that and that is why we have renters insurance. Again, this was not planned, I shouldn’t have to go out of my way to stay somewhere else in the meantime. I strongly feel this has been poorly handled and has been difficult for my family.

smokes and are very loud every day with screaming children running around and can hear the tv. They have done nothing about this. This is the worst place I’ve lived, and I cannot wait to move out.

our bathroom floor. We cleaned it up and didn't think much, but when we noticed the water again the following morning, we decided it would be best to call emergency maintenance. The days to follow were some of the worst. By Wednesday the maintenance team had completely gutted our bathroom without warning. We went the next several weeks without our second bathroom (mind you the bathroom that was gutted was our main bathroom) Maintenance proceeded to seal our bathroom off, and failed to let us know that there was mold in our bathroom. We did not see this bathroom completed until the second week of January (2018) While this was all happening, we tried coming to a compromise with the leasing office about either letting us out of our lease, or reimbursement for the inconveniences and not being able to use the bathroom. It took for us to call corporate to get anywhere, and the best decision was to be compensated for the inconvenience, because they would not let us our of our lease, without having to lose our deposit, pay another month of rent. That was the bathroom situation. Things seemed to get a little better after this. So we ended up staying another year because both my husband and I were sick of moving. May 2018- I noticed some ants in our apartment and got a hold of them for routine pest control. It was not till July that someone came out. And on one occasion they granted the pest control man access to my apartment. I was in the shower when this man came into my apartment. I was told he would be coming on Wednesday (he came on a Tuesday) and instead of calling me to let me know, they simply gave him a key. I should add the the ladies in the office at the time were well aware that I worked from home. There were several other instances that I could share about in my experience here. I will add that if you live on a first floor apartment with 2 bedrooms expect never to be warm in the winter. The front room is POORLY insulated, I could store water bottles in the c

to leave we have to pay.... I had to move in the middle of winter to a new apartment and of course my options were limited so I needed time & YES I had to pay...Don’t live here

stating it was just an error, but took serval weeks to give it back. They do not care how terrible your stay is, only that you give them as much money and possible.

if you are looking to be in a place long-term, this probably isn't the spot for you unless you have a large amount of disposable income.

the ultimate place to live in Kalamazoo. I'm not a huge fan of Michigan in the first place, but moving in to this property would change my mind about how much I could potentially enjoy it!! Danielle ~
