Just recently moved here from TX for a job transfer. My wife and I moved into these apartments and…read morehave been very happy here. They are fairly new, EET clean, and well taken care of. We really like having a 2-car garage, not something you typically get with an apartment. The grounds are kept up very well, and the neighbors have all been very nice. We have 2 dogs and it appears so do most of the residents here, as it's very dog-friendly! The staff who I have dealt with, in particular Yehmien, has been fantastic, friendly, and very helpful, especially when it came to our move-in. I would highly recommend taking a look at this place if you are in the market for a nice apartment in this area, you won't regret it.

I have lived here for 6 months now and love it. Yes, the rent is steep, BUT it is worth it not…read morehaving people live above and below you. I've lived in many apartments in my day (through college, etc) and this is by far the quietest I have ever lived in. I'll occasionally hear the toilet flush on one of our neighbors or the shower going, but otherwise nothing else. Ever. We are only the second tenants to live in our apartment so everything is like brand new yet (which is why the higher rent is justifiable for me). I like the granite throughout, hardwood floors, ceiling fans in most rooms and two car garage is awesome. We have a nice back patio that backs to trees, which again is great. Whenever we've had to put in a maintenance request in, Kenny is here the next day to take care of it. He's awesome to work with and does a great job. Maintenance requests were light bulb out, we nicked the paint and wanted a touch up. I typically email Kena, the office manager and always get a fast and friendly reply from her. Neighbors are nice. Neighborhood is nice, safe and quiet. Very happy here!!

I wish I could give Fairlane Meadow Apartments zero stars because that's exactly what they deserve…read more My experience with them was a complete nightmare from start to finish, and they scammed me out of $80! First, they charged me an $80 application fee, which they refused to refund after rejecting my application for absurd reasons. On top of that, they slapped on an additional $180 "administration" fee, bringing the total to $260! Not only did they waste my time, but they took my money and gave nothing in return. They didn't provide any valid reason for rejecting my application, just threw in arbitrary excuses and made me jump through unnecessary hoops that were never mentioned upfront. They hid behind unclear requirements and used them to disqualify me while pocketing my hard-earned money. Camille Broadus, the leasing consultant, was extremely unprofessional throughout the process. After I uploaded all the required documents during my application, she kept coming back asking for more documents that were never mentioned at the beginning. She flat-out refused to accept the payment ledger I provided from my resident portal, insisting on a certified version from the leasing office of my current residence--something that wasn't even stated in their initial requirements! But the most shocking part? Camille actually asked me to forward my private email chain with my employer for "employment verification." Are you kidding me? How invasive and inappropriate! Any professional leasing office would contact the employer directly for verification, but instead, she demanded confidential emails between me and my workplace. This is a massive violation of privacy, and no professional establishment should be asking for something like this. It really made me question the ethical standards of Fairlane Meadow Apartments. To make matters worse, despite the outrageous amount of money they charged me for the application, they didn't even bother to contact my current leasing office for verification. Instead, they made me go through the trouble of having my payment records certified and sent back to them. What's the point of charging these insane fees if they're not going to do the legwork themselves? It feels like they're just grabbing money from applicants and then looking for any excuse to reject them so they can keep the fees. The whole experience was shady from start to finish. Fairlane Meadow Apartments and Camille Broadus seem to deliberately make the process difficult and complicated to discourage applicants, while happily keeping your money. If this is how they treat potential tenants, I can't even imagine how poorly they treat actual residents once you're trapped in a lease. The complete lack of trust, professionalism, and transparency makes it clear that they have no interest in treating people fairly. It honestly feels like a scam designed to take advantage of people. Save yourself the trouble and stay far away from Fairlane Meadow Apartments. They'll take your money, waste your time, and turn the application process into a complete nightmare. You deserve better than dealing with this level of incompetence, untrustworthy behavior, and outright disrespect!

This place is an absolute disgrace. There are many very kind residents here who won't advocate for…read morethemselves because they live in fear of losing their homes due to a childish staff who don't like one another (two of which are now gone, thankfully). There's supposed to be an in-house service coordinator to help people but they don't exist. From the day I signed the lease it was nothing but confusion and unnecessary drama, which admittedly, I should have taken as a red flag to go elsewhere. Maintainance was deplorable, though they got an excellent temp for a bit but obviously he declined to stay on any longer. The other maintenance staffperson is a young man who deserves a medal for having put up with the woman they got rid of and the disgusting state of this building. Tenants pay astronomical rent with no help in understanding the process of how to get vouchers. Have a job? Don't work from home, they have inspections about once a month and they'll come to your apartment if you want them to or not and whether you're home or not, according to the letters. They seem to pass these inspections every time despite bed bugs, mold, leaks, greasy footprints all over the floor. The "events" are bingo 2x weekly and cards once a week, which about 5-8 people play. More of a gossip club, as is the smoker's club outside. Don't let anyone know your business, and boy do they think they're entitled to it. This bldg is the only one of the 16 Church Residences properties in Michigan to not give subsidies. Rent is flat rate regardless of what percentile they figure you fall into, and goes up NOT at the end of your lease, but in January, by about $50. Most elderly do not even get that kind of increase in their social security yearly, so if you stay here, you will eventually need an extra source of income, but you're limited at that so that you don't go over some fictional threshold that is more than the area median. I have 2 different papers I was given with two different income limits, and they are drastically different. Speaking of area (this part not being their fault of course), if you like methheads and hood thugs, this is the place for you. Bar fights behind the building, police at the neighboring apartment almost daily, M-80s set off in the adjacent park at 3 am. Your car is not safe and neither are you. Derelicts sneak into the building and do absolutely disgusting things so we live on lockdown, and the trash that do live here let them in at night. I spoke to a resident that stated she knew a couple of them have let them in. Then there's the section 8 dwellers that for some reason are allowed to live here (22 units worth, I believe), and you sure know who they are. This was a 55+ and now 62+ but there's people in here far younger than that getting section 8. Favoritisms are played, it's very clear. They should be going by people's income, but it doesn't work that way. It used to. Free water but don't expect it to be hot. I have to run mine 10-15 minutes in the AM for shower. Plumbing clogs up all the time, horrible smells, peeling paint from excess moisture. Pressure comes and goes, and showers come in hot/cold bursts. Have to heat water on stove to do dishes many times. No recycling, wasted resources everywhere, dog feces (at least I hope it's dog) on the carpets that haven't been replaced since the building was built in late 70s/early 80s, filth, mold, bed bugs (which they think entitles them to keep you in your apartment if they get them, even though the rest of the building is disgusting), hallways clocking in at 95 degrees in the summer because they wont turn on the air anywhere except downstairs. A/C that is only in bedrooms and living room, not kitchen where it's needed, AND you only get heat or air, not both. They turn it off from October to May. No grocery store trips or senior center. Tenants are expected to take the city bus. Rule enforcement depends on who you are. One person gets kicked out immediately for a cigarette starting a balcony fire while another gets caught smoking at least four times and they're still here. There are 8 washers and 8 dryers that an outside company are supposed to maintain that they clearly do not. No soap comes out on the 11th floor and way too much on the 5th, for example. Floor 8 someone washed their sh##tty pants or dog's blankets out in the sink, which we've found more than once. There are 154 units, with 20 of them being 2 bedrooms. There could be upwards of 200 people living in this building and it has 16 laundry machines to accomodate that, and space for about 30 of them in the communal room for meals on wheels. You are inundated with rule addendums and notes left at the door over the least little thing. I could point out dozens more things but the bottom line is this property rakes in $1.2+ million a year in rent. Where is all our money going if National Church Residences and MSDHA can't even do basic things like replace the tile in the elevators and the carpet in the halls?

They did a full remodel on Columbia and some remodeling here and there on other properties, but only the bare minimum to get by passing inspections.
