Management Scams Tenants Out Of Security Deposit
June 15, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
This apartment complex is a complete joke. From the moment I moved in, the unit was in terrible shape: cracked countertops, paint dripping down the kitchen cabinets, a gaping hole behind the stovetop, and a broken closet door that barely functioned. This was the condition they gave me the keys to -- and somehow, I'm the one getting charged for "damages" at move-out?
The property manager is completely unresponsive, unprofessional, and clearly doesn't care about the tenants or the condition of the ...
property. I've contacted her several times and never got a single follow-up. But don't worry -- she will respond when it comes time to nickel-and-dime you. I was told I needed to replace the stovetop drip pans or be charged $35 -- over basic, cheap items anyone would consider normal wear and tear.
The tub and shower? Absolutely disgusting. Instead of replacing anything, the maintenance team just slaps a layer of paint over the old, stained surfaces. It starts peeling with regular use, and then they'll charge you $250 to repaint it again when you leave. Total scam. The property manager Kathy will swindle tenants out of their security deposit completely because tenants do not re-lease.
Oh -- and yes, I saw roaches. I keep my place spotless, so don't even try to blame the tenants. Rent is outrageously overpriced for the run-down, poorly maintained, borderline uninhabitable units they're renting out.
Save yourself the headache and money. This place is a dump and the management is shamelessly exploitative.

Management team was horrible
September 23, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
The management team was very unresponsive. I have noticed them about my intention of breaking the lease due to personal issue multiple times and received no response. After I left the property they charged me the following month + fee of breaking the lease and threatened me with legal action AFTER 25 days of not responding my email.

Accessible and Comfortable Living

As a student in ASU, this apartment offers everything you need while studying, it's close to college and very comfortable and it's open area makes it feel very free and cozy.

I love living here!
October 13, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
This complex is such a fun place to be! Not only are there resident activities there is a pool in every complex, access to a gym, security protected mailboxes, and an activity center where you can play pool with friends or make a cup of coffee. The environment is very welcoming and I think anyone would like living here just as I do.

Affordable and Convenient
May 31, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
I would highly recommend anyone to live here!
I have been living at University Pointe for almost a year now and have also renewed with them for another year. For the most part this place is pretty good. As said in the title, it is affordable and convened. It is close to campus and doesn't cost as much as the high rises do.
There is pest control that comes in every Friday to help knock out bugs. I have never had an issue with bugs before.
There is a maintained team that is on call 24/7 as well ...
as resolves issues quickly. I had my AC broken and they gave me a portable one for the night and fixed it the next day. Very fast and reliable.
I loved the pools and I am out there often with my friends or alone reading a book. The only thing I would really like is a hot tub so my friends and I can hangout during the cold nights are sit in it after a long day of work.
Other than that the only complaints I have is that the walls are a little thin and the insides may look a little outdated like the kitchen, but everything works fine.
The staff is also very helpful and really makes me feel like my issues are heard and are resolved immediately. The property Manager Kathy is very nice and is willing to work with you through any issues.

prison cell
September 18, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
feels like you are in a prison cell. always hot, ac can only go to 76, many things broken, painted over, dirty. outlets don't work. way too expensive for what I am getting. also, not even close to the apartment that we viewed. definitely not staying.
Avoid this place if you can
July 1, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
The only perks of living here are the occasional events and the front office staff, with the exception of the property manager Kathy. I have never had such a frustrating experience with anyone before where my concerns were ignored or barely responded to. During an email thread towards the end of my lease, she stopped responding and I later found out she was gone for the week and wouldn't return until after I had left. She also locked me out of my own account, so I was unable to make an online ...
payment.
Other than that, expect to hear your neighbors 24/7 and have difficulty with the fob to get into the gates. The closeness to ASU and cheapness doesn't outrank how awful this place is.

Great for Students!
June 14, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
This complex is in a central and great location in ASU as it is close to everything you may need. Management has been great dealing with COVID-19 protocols and they are exceptionally nice!! Would recommend any student to live here.
Great Value, Proximity, and neighborhood
June 14, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
Great value for where you're located near campus. Has all the benefits of Dorm style living without living in a dorm (or the prices). Easy to commute to and from because its on Lemon Street, so you're not bogged down by oncoming traffic. Place is sanitary and staff is always seeming to help.
Trust me, do NOT rent here
February 2, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
Bugs, terrible unreasonable staff, very rude neighbors, bad quality apartments where everything breaks, will put a threatening sticker your car even if you have a parking sticker on it, and so on. You'll regret living here, don't fall for the marketing.
Big disappointment...
February 15, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
Wow, UP, where to begin? The only good thing that I can say about this place is the proximity to ASU. Very close. However, during my time here, I found it extremely difficult to enjoy living in this complex.
As an international student. The first night I arrived here, I was exhausted. The keys they gave me did not work with my apartment door even though I paid my rent far in advance. So, I had to drag all my big luggages from overseas to stay at a hotel nearby. BIG HASSLE.
Most of the staff in ...
the leasing office was hopelessly incompetent except for Verenice, who was the best among them all. She was courteous and attentive. However, the rest of the staff just acts like they couldn't be bothered the whole time with the tenants, couldn't answer basic questions asked.
Shortly after I moved in, there was a drunk homeless man knocking on my door in the middle of the night asking for money. It was horrendous. I did not feel safe sleeping at night there. The wall was so thin you could hear your neighbor sneezed, talked and play loud music. You could also hear the floor shaking when your neighbor walked.
Maintenance also couldn't fix the problem I had in the apartment and their communication with was very poor. It seems like they don't communicate well within the organization, let alone with me. I found myself having to constantly get information from different people which was very confusing. The staff was also helpless and couldn't give me the right solutions regarding the problems in the apartment. Lack of communication seems to be main problem within the staff. Maintenance also left a lot of mess in the apartment when they came to fix issues. If you plan on staying here, I'd recommend that you look further into other choices. I'm glad that I'm finally out of there. Big mistake.

Unprofessional
August 19, 2017 - Review from Apartments.com
Over the last three years there has been a lot of turnover in managing and ownership of this apartment complex and the current property management has been undoubtedly the most unhelpful and least professional. The biggest concerns are a lack of communication, responsiveness and overall concern. Don't expect to receive prompt and timely return phone calls despite weeks of leaving several messages. For instance, we had a busted pipe underneath the ground of our bedroom that was seeping water up ...
through the floor. It took a month to get fixed. Also, the central air condition broke for a week in the summer and no one received money back on their rent (all utilities are included in the rent so we paid for AC we did not receive). Other issues include roach problems they never permanently addressed, weird and inconvenient office hours of the office located at our particular property, and the laundry machines which more often than not wouldn’t read anyone of your several credit cards made it a bad experience. Overall, there is a clear unprofessional and unconcerned culture of management at University Pointe. Nonetheless, not everything was bad. These are the perks I particularly enjoyed: gas grill (when it wasn’t broken), close to ASU, close to public transportation, and included utilities.
