That said, my wife and I were actually pretty impressed. The amenities were great, the staff and residents were genuinely friendly, and the pricing seemed very reasonable. Plus, the location is super convenient -- it's an easy walk to a nearby shopping center. For someone active like us, it's definitely a place we might consider for ourselves in a couple of years.

I really enjoyed my apartment and the time I spent at Novo. It was a place I genuinely felt at…read morehome, and I'll carry a lot of good memories from living there. Like any community, there were a few things future renters may want to keep in mind: 1. Parking - Parking could be a bit unpredictable, which is fairly common in apartment living. I always appreciated that the management team made a real effort to keep things organized and to address any concerns quickly and fairly. There were a few times the lot was so full I couldn't park so I had to park by the leasing office in the new resident parking which was across the community from my unit. Although there was opportunity to pay monthly for a designated spot. 2. Noise - The walls are on the thinner side, so some noise from neighbors could be heard at times, and I'm sure ours carried as well. We did our best to be considerate, especially with TV volume and quiet hours, but occasional feedback still came up. We also heard typical apartment sounds like pets, voices, and snoring. Management was thoughtful in sending reminders to help everyone stay mindful of shared living. 3. Outdoor space - One of my favorite parts of living at Novo was the outdoor space. There is a beautiful lake area that feels peaceful and tucked away from the road. Our unit had a lovely view and access to a grassy area right outside, which we really enjoyed. I'll truly miss sitting out there and enjoying the calm. 4. Management - The management team made a big difference in my overall experience. They were consistently kind, responsive, and professional. Jasmine especially stood out for her warmth and attentiveness--she always made sure we understood what was going on and followed up when we had questions. It felt like they genuinely cared about the residents. 5. Deposit - The move-out process was straightforward. The initial deposit was $500, and while it went toward final charges, we did owe a small additional amount (around $20) for items like drip pan repairs and painting touch-ups. It's worth noting that anything requiring more than an hour of painting labor is billed separately at move-out, which can add to final charges. We also had minor nail holes from hanging pictures. Overall, Novo was a clean, peaceful place to live with a lot of positives that made it feel safe. It's not perfect--as no community is--but I felt supported by management, and I'm grateful for the time I spent there.

Walls and ceilings are thin so if you're looking to hear your neighbors this is the place for you. This review is just the prelude. Will definitely come back once our lease nightmare is over.

I recently worked with Hieu at pacific landscaping and was impressed every step of the way. From…read morethe initial design consult, to the final installation, everything was executed with attention to detail and commitment to creating a beautiful backyard for our family. Hieu was patient with us as we had tons of questions about what to do and gave us great ideas. The project was done much quicker than we anticipated so we could enjoy our backyard this summer. We ended up with a herringbone paver patio, high quality artificial turf, a pathway on the side yard and a raised bed garden with gravel surrounding. They were the most affordable quote we received, yet the quality of work and customer service was unmatched. Highly recommend!

From start to finish, Hieu's attention to detail was fantastic & the project progressed at a good pace. Hieu & crew showed up every day rain or shine until the job was completed, which gave me peace of mind knowing that he was dedicated to finish my project in a timely manner. When we saw the transformation taking place. we came up w/more ideas & added to the project in the middle of it, which he was more than willing to take on. The walkway and stone wall themselves are absolutely stunning & added so much curb appeal to our home. I am totally impressed with his craftsmanship and eye for detail, not to mention he is just a heck of a nice guy! We will definitely hire Hieu again for future landscape projects I highly recommend Hieu and Pacific Landscaping. You won't be disappointed.

Also it is really safe place due to the police station in a two minute walk. The office workers ask about the experience at these apartments trying to know how to make everyone's experience even better. It is also really useful that the Covington square is in five minute walk so that everyone can get whatever they want or need the fastest way possible. Also the park which is next to the police station creates a friendly environment for the kids to create new communities, as well as allowing dog owners to walk their dogs and get to know their neighbors as well! Overall this is a great place to live 10/10! Also the neighbors are VERY friendly for example we have a pirate in our building he's the nicest person ever! The leasing office management always checks and makes sure that whoever rents the apartments wont cause any trouble for the residents and so that everyone is ready to help out each other. Overall my family and I got really close with our neighbors that we can say that we're one big family. The office management is very nice as well they always make sure that the office area is clean in every single room. The main office area has a TV and a fireplace which causes a home like environment which makes the main office area really comfortable. The game area is allowing kids to get closer to each other and make lots of different communities and be friends with each other. The office always makes sure that everyone is safe and is nice to each and every single one. The theater room is always clean as well residents are allowed to go in the theater and watch something. The garage area is really clean as well if you pay a little more you're allowed to have a reserved spot which allows you to keep your car safe under cameras that constantly work as well as allowing your vehicle to be safe from different weather situations like rainy days, hail or even thunderstorms. Also in Polaris if you broke anything or if something isn't working at all or isn't working properly you can ask one of the managers to sent you a professional that could help you. Also in the building B there is a gym thats open to residents that are 16 year old and older or if you're under 16 you can come with a parent or a guardian. The gym at polaris gives you opportunities to keep a healthy lifestyle. And the age restrictions makes sure that no kid gets hurt. Overall Polaris is a really great place for you and your family i recommend it for sure and maybe polaris is one of the top three best apartments that also allow your economic situation to stay stable at all times.

There was 2 shootings in the back of the red building in the past year, there's a lot of drug activity going on, and I've had my car broken into twice (and I pay $65/month for a parking garage spot). There are always suspicious looking people hanging around the entrance of the complex, which does not make it look inviting at all. The apartment complex is horribly mismanaged. They've lost my rent check three times and sent me eviction notices two days later. They couldn't make me pay them again only because I had them make a receipt copy of my checks each time I paid. Not to mention that there is a new set of staff members in there about every 3-6 months. If you don't believe me, check out a few posts from 2 and 4 months ago. Each one has a response from the owner that states that they are the "new community director" with two different names. Kelli and Trisha. Polaris at Covington is run by FPI Management who excels in overcharging you when you move out. When I moved out, I was charged $175.00 "standard" apartment cleaning fee and a $275 "standard" carpet cleaning fee (not replacement, CLEANING FEE). That's absolutely ridiculous when I had NO PETS and I rug doctored the unit twice myself. There is NO REASON for $300 worth of cleaning for a carpet that is already spotless. Then I was charged a $300 painting fee for an apartment that I lived in for 11 MONTHS. So you can pretty much guarantee that you won't be getting your deposit back AND you might have to owe them too. There's no way that I should have been charged $750 for an apartment that I was in for 11 MONTHS. All in all, I would not move here. They've got cheap rent but you also get what you pay for. Please take my advice and DO NOT move here.

Little things like that go along way and it shows their attention to detail. The office staff is great to work for and provides timely feedback to any inquiries. The community itself is great. People are nice and respectful of the quiet times. Cover it's private the families at the pool the last couple of weeks have enjoyed themselves without excessive noise. I say this only because it's something I'm not used to. The apartments are relatively new... Only four years old. Everything is state of the art and it's a great layout. Patios are really nice and a great place to kick back and relax after a workday. Apartments are set up for Xfinity/Comcast or CenturyLink high-speed Internet.
