    I lived here for 3 months and so far it's been a great experience. We've only had one maintenance…read moreissue and it was fixed the same day. The other residents are respectful and friendly from my encounters. There's a lot of kids that live here that like to run around on scooters and e-bikes on the weekends-they can be a little noisy but it doesn't bother me. The property manager, Gigi, has been so helpful and kind with any questions I've asked. Lots of open parking and no sketchy weirdos loitering around. I have never seen the dumpsters overflowing- the trash is collected multiple times a week. I do find a spider in the unit every so often but it's definitely not a pest problem. Never had a package stolen so far! I'm really enjoying this place!

    Don't let the appearance of this complex fool you. At first glance, it looks like a quiet and safe…read moreneighborhood, but that has not been my experience at all. During the 10 months I lived here, I had my gas siphoned, a SWAT team break down a neighbor's door during a hostage situation, and another neighboring unit where a drug-addicted couple had frequent violent altercations. The situation became so bad that I had to call the police over a dozen times during my short time living there. The most frustrating part is that management has received complaints about these issues for years. They will tell you they care and that they are addressing the situation, but nothing actually changes. The responses often feel dismissive and unhelpful. What ultimately pushed me to write this review, however, was how my move-out was handled. Although I moved out before my lease ended, I made every effort to leave the apartment in excellent condition. I had the unit professionally cleaned, including the carpets, and had all holes patched and painted. After the pre-move-out inspection, I even provided management with the invoices for these services. Despite this, I was still charged nearly $500 in additional cleaning and painting fees. I was also charged an incorrect $450 rent balance, even though management had previously confirmed that I had paid the remaining rent and utilities owed. Even after explaining this and providing documentation, they still refused to return my full security deposit. Overall, the experience was extremely disappointing. For the price you pay to live here, there are far better and better-managed options in the area. I strongly encourage prospective renters to carefully consider other properties before signing a lease here.

    My husband and I moved in here three months ago, and things have been nothing short of excellent so…read morefar. The amenities, cleanliness, and organization of this complex are all top-notch, but the main factor for Block C's success has been its leasing office team. Jessica gave us our first tour of the place in March, and actually REMEMBERED us nine months later when we were finally ready to apply and move in! She is a gem. She is so knowledgable and patient, made us feel very recognized and welcomed, and facilitated a smooth move-in transition. Not many leasing companies seem to get this right - but Block C does: attention to detail and genuine care make ALL the difference to a resident! And we definitely felt that with Jessica. More recently, many of our interactions have been with Sara, who has been nothing short of an angel. She is professional, she is knowledgable, and always willing to help. After we were approved, she helped us on move-in day and made sure we got everything we needed. But her care did NOT stop after that first day - she answered questions and coordinated repairs for weeks after that! She is so quick and responsive each and every time we correspond with her via email. She has helped us with storing our packages when we are out of town, accepted and coordinated larger deliveries for us, and paid rapt attention each time we had a maintenance issue. Each time there has been a maintenance request, she's made sure not only that it simply gets done, but also that it gets done to our satisfaction, and she doesn't just promise that it will and forget - she actually follows up and sees to it herself. You have no idea how much peace of mind that lends a resident, and I am thankful for it every day! Both Sara and Jessica go above and beyond by not only getting things done, but being SO cheerful and prompt with everything they do, and I marvel at their patience and energy! We strongly believe that the best decision Block C's administration ever made was hiring Jessica and Sara. It takes great people to run a great office, and they have been amazing and deserve all the praise (and all the bonuses!) in the world. I know John has been a big part of this as well - he takes care and genuine interest in the operations of the entire community (which I bet is no easy job!) and is very attentive to our needs and our maintenance requests as well. The whole staff has an amazing attitude of service, pride in ownership + stewardship, and attention to detail, and I can tell he leads by example. And it is not just the staff's kindness that makes this place so great - it is genuinely a good place to live. The organization of the complex as a whole that makes me proud to live here. FOBs instead of keys? Genius. A remote door unlocking system for main entrances? Seamless (Why has the housing industry not applied this broadly yet??). A parcel pending package delivery system? What a life-saver. A mixed parking system? Best solution to the parking problem I've ever seen. Everything about Block C makes SENSE and is beautifully executed for the resident's ease and comfort. It truly is the future of the leasing experience. And on top of that, the security team and the maintenance team are effective and responsive. What more could you ask for? As a young millennial, I've lived in my share of apartment complexes in and around southern California. At Block C, one of the main differences is that the whole staff makes us feel not like a burden (which is how I'm used to being treated by rental offices) but instead like appreciated members of their home and family! The complex itself is well-kept and well organized, and I couldn't be prouder to live here. Thank you! -Mr. and Mrs. Javier + Amanda Gonzalez

    DO NOT MOVE HERE!!! We took over a lease and lived here for…read more9 months. The communication for taking over the lease was very slow. When we did move in, the charges we had on top of rent were way too much. We had to pay an extra $125 every month for a second parking spot. The utilities were a joke! We were told there was solar.. our "solar" bill was around $150 a month! For a 574 square foot apartment (when we both work full time outside of the home). Every single utility is charged for. Gas, solar, water, pest control, trash, sewer, service fee. And then the parking garage... we were grateful we never got into an accident! The way the PIMA students and other residents drive through this structure was ridiculous. They went way too fast around corners and did not look. My fiance saw someone hit a parked car and told the leasing office, not sure they did anything about it. When our lease was close to ending, they never reached out to us about signing a new lease (which we were not going to do), once the month out time hit, I emailed them and they told us we had to give 30 days notice, even though the lease was ending. This caused us having to pay for a few extra days. When I scheduled the move out inspection, the guy arrived the last 4 minutes of a two hour window, and then told me they would be lenient because we had taken over a lease. That was not the case (lack of communication between management and maintenance?). After moving out, they sent us the move out inspection and charged us $200 for drywall repair, but another document they also sent said $50/hr for 2 hours, which should have only been $100. Luckily I caught it and got the full refund. But quite scammy! I could go on and on... the loud roads and freeway in the middle of the night, the construction that did not stay within their hours, but I hope you can understand how bad this place was. Yes there were a few nice things (nice gym, new appliances, walkable location), but these things do NOT outway the bad.
