VRV is a part of the Greystar property & was built in 2023 w/ grand opening in June 2023…read more [Rent]: I looked at 15+ apartments in fall 2024 & ended up signing a 13-month lease for approximately $2,700+ per month for a one-bedroom (741 sq ft) on the 5th floor facing the pool. One bedroom = 3 max occupants & comes w/ appliances like a dishwasher, oven, refrigerator, and microwave. Lease = 12 to 15 months only & must meet 3x rent income requirement. [Monthly Fees]: Pest Control = $2.00. Trash Service = $25.00 (Sunday night - Thursday night). Utility Billing Administrative Fee = $4.88. Pet fee = $50 & waived w/ ESA (Emotional Support Animals). [One-time Fee]: Application Fee = $35.00 per applicant. Holding Deposit (refundable) = $500.00 per unit. $500 deposit per dog. Parcel Pending app fee = $20. *** Amenities *** [1st floor]: 24-hour two-level fitness center that feels like a mini gym, w/ StairMasters, poolside lounge w/ hanging daybeds, lounge kitchen at the lobby for guests, clubhouse lounge, mail room via Parcel Pending app, dog wash station, & a small onsite outdoor dog run. [2nd floor]: Sports simulator (golf swing bay & lounge) and a work-from-home office. [7th floor]: City-view deck. [Guest Parking]: Residents receive 4 guest parking passes per month via the Reliant Parking app & guest passes are not required between 9 AM - 6 PM. [Internet]: Frontier or Spectrum. [Payment]: Blit Rewards w/ autopay. [Others]: Central AC & in-unit washer-dryer combos (European-style). *** Pros *** [Amazing location]: A perfect 'meet me halfway' location - Long Beach, Huntington Beach, Cerritos, Costa Mesa, and Buena Park = all within a 30-minute drive. Rodeo 39 Public Market (a trendy food hall), Planet Fitness, Starbucks, & In-N-Out are all just a block away. Convenient access to Freeway SR-22 & Costco (Business Center) is only 3 blocks away though it closes early at 6 PM. Little Saigon is less than 15 minutes away so great Vietnamese food not too far away. There's also a nearby H-Mart for Asian groceries. [Friendly management]: Errold & Sabrina from the leasing office are always friendly & helpful. The leasing office is open daily from 9 AM to 6 PM so there is always someone available in person unlike Essex apartments. [Easy move-in process]: They use an app called Updater which provides step-by-step instructions for the move-in process. This includes setting up internet/TV service, USPS mail forwarding, connecting utilities such as SCE (no need to set up water, gas, or trash as those are billed via Conservice), & securing renter's insurance ($100k coverage = approximately $10.75 to $14.50 per month via Assurance). [Easy move-out process]: No hiccups. There was a $120 cleaning fee & a $45 painting fee. I received the remaining deposit balance about a month later via email. [Smart lock]: Even if you accidentally forget your key fob, you can still get back in by entering a code on the smart lock. [Food]: Few times a month the apartment hosts pop-up kitchen events & residents can scan a QR code to place orders in advance. *** Cons *** * Occasionally some outsiders would camp near the apartment complex, but they are usually gone within a week. I typically drive in & out of the apartment so it has never been an issue. These incidents became less & less frequent. * It is true that the garage entrance on Stanford Ave occasionally doesn't work, but I have learned to enter via Beach Blvd instead & it has not been an issue. * Expect occasional random noise but I rarely hear anything distracting after midnight. The double-pane windows blocked sound well & living on the 5th floor (the highest floor w/ pool-facing rooms) = no neighbor above my room. * Some pet owners do not always pick up after their dogs at the outdoor dog run. * No control over the TV channels in the lobby. *** Other Observations *** * No one really uses the pool during the winter season. * The 60-day move-out notification = only applied to residents who moved in when the apartment first opened to help maintain occupancy rates. Now the apartment is mostly filled, it is a standard 30-day move-out notification. * Each resident receives one free parking spot, but the assigned spot is always located one floor above the floor they live on. While it is not the most convenient setup for getting in & out, I just view it as a small bonus for getting some extra exercise. * Make sure the garage sticker is on the driver's side - I initially put it in the center of window only to realize it doesn't work well. Moving it to the driver's side fixed the issue. * To toss large cardboard boxes, take them to the 1st floor & leave them next to the steel roll-up gates. [Conclusion]: Is it the perfect apartment? No, but it is all about identifying your non-negotiables. For me, location & friendly management are top priorities. This apartment remains quite popular esp the units facing the pool. I would consider moving back here if I need to live in OC again.

Warning to Prospective Tenants of Rancho Monterey Apartments…read more I love my neighbors and the location, but I wish someone had told me what was really going on before I signed my lease 5 years ago. The parking situation here is an absolute disaster, and management is doing nothing to fix it. There are clear rules posted on the property: Resident Parking Only, No Commercial Vehicles, 72-Hour Maximum Parking. None of these are enforced. Right now, we have: * Abandoned cars sitting for months in spaces we pay for * Commercial vans and mobile detailing businesses treating the lot like a free storage yard * Tenants parking 4-5 vehicles each, including motorcycles, work trucks, and equipment vans * Out-of-state and expired-tag cars parked for weeks while residents drive around hoping for a spot Management is rarely in the office and emails go unanswered. This isn't about attacking anyone personally--we understand everyone has their challenges--but we are paying premium California rent with no protection or enforcement. Five years ago, there were decals to track resident vehicles and it worked. Now, the system is gone, and so is our parking. There are auto detailing companies, contractors, event staging, etc all sorts of businesses being run out of this property while their commercial vehicles take our parking to run their for-profit business. They take the hundreds or gallons of water from the units and empty their trash into our dumpsters at night so it's just a matter of time until the rent goes up for us that actually PAY to live here. Look at these photos. This is DAY AND NIGHT here for the past SEVEN TO EIGHT MONTHS. Management lives here so it's a CHOICE to "not see" this and do anything about this. It doesn't stop at parking. The dumpsters overflow halfway through the week because outside businesses dump their trash here. The pools are locked down. Amenities we pay for are disappearing while other people who don't even live here abuse the property. We're not asking for luxury, just basic fairness. Until commercial vehicles are towed, abandoned cars are cleared, and parking rules are enforced, this is a bait-and-switch situation. We all moved in with the understanding this was a protected, residents-only community. What we got instead is a storage lot for people running businesses and leaving junk cars on site while the rest of us pay the price. We are posting this because about 22 other residents have agreed: enough is enough. We'll gladly remove this review when we see action taken. Until then, consider yourself warned: you're paying full price here for half the value. Oh and all that hard work you put in at your job, well... save some energy for when you get home as you won't have parking INSIDE the property like you signed a lease to receive.

I just wanted to take a moment to genuinely thank Cathy for making my move-in experience smooth,…read morequick, and stress-free. From the very beginning, she was efficient, responsive, and made the entire process feel easy--which is rare when it comes to moving. One of the main reasons I chose this apartment was the location. Being right near the 405 and 22 freeway makes it incredibly convenient, especially since it sits at a perfect midpoint between Long Beach and coastal Orange County. It makes getting anywhere simple and efficient. What really stood out to me, though, is the level of safety and security here. The property is gated, has overnight security patrol, and even the indoor-outdoor garage is secured. The entire place feels fortified and well thought out, which gives a strong sense of peace of mind. On top of that, the maintenance team is incredibly fast and reliable. Knowing that anything can be handled right away makes living here that much more comfortable. The overall environment is also a huge plus--neighbors are respectful, reserved, and easygoing. It feels like a community of people who value peace and consideration for others. Overall, this apartment truly delivers on luxury, cleanliness, and safety, and Cathy played a big role in making that first impression a great one.

It makes a world of difference living somewhere where management actually listens and takes action. Highly recommend Jasmine Palace if you're looking for a stress-free living experience!

Coming from the Bay Area, I recently moved in to La Madera this past August with my son and my dog…read more What drew me to La Madera was that there were no breed restrictions/weight limit for dogs. (I have a 50 pound husky). I was also drawn to La Madera due to the positive reviews. Although there were not that many reviews I figured that meant the residents are happy. Usually when someone experiences something negative, that's when they will complain about the company on Yelp to let other people know. I scheduled an appointment with the manager Anny in June and coordinated everything with her via phone/email. She was very responsive and answered all my questions thoroughly. Anny made the move in process quick and easy. The complex is quiet and all the residents are to themselves. Although I have only been living here for a month, everything is great and I have no complaints. The maintanence manager Gustavo is also great. Very personable and helpful when something needs fixing. There were a couple of things that needed to be fixed when i first moved in such as my toilet paper holder being too narrow, broken microwave, and a dishwasher being installed. All of these work orders were completed timely. I will point out though that parking could be a concern here if you have more than one vehicle. (I only have one so nothing to worry about for me). Also there were some occasions (not often, mostly on the weekends) where the garbage dumpsters will fill up quickly and overflow). Laundry facilities on-site are adequate. And my only pet peeve is that we are not able to reverse park in to the parking stalls. I could understand why but I love my reverse parking. Oh one more pet peeve, I wish the parking gate entrance would open automatically when leaving the complex. Unfortunately Anny is off to manage a new complex - she was awesome to work with and she advised me to reach out to her if any questions.

As an empty nester downsizing from a home to a 1bedroom nest, it was a life changing moment for me. My number 1 priority has always been safety, whether I am in the apartment or in the parking structure. I was very pleased with how up to date the security is set up here and the place is always well lit with their sensored lights both in the parking structure and hallway. EV charging stations are a big bonus! As for the apartment living, everything was provided efficiently. I don't really have any issues with the appliances except for replacing the AC and fridge filters, which maintenance is always promt and professional with the services. Adan is the best! The amenities are always kept up to par. Whenever I have questions or concerns, things have always been obliged in a timely manner. Neighbors around me are very pleasant and respectful towards each other. As for the management and staff, I am beyond words about them. I feel that they are compassionate, empathetic, and understanding to their best abilities. They will always strive to do their best to assist or accommodate the situation. They are the main reason that I've decided to stay longer. For the community safety concern, the only setback I see is the alarm situation. I know most of the time it's triggered by people not abiding by the rules and open their front door while cooking and management have yet to enforce stricter rules (maybe as a fine). If this situation improves then the complex will be even more pleasant and beautiful state of the art accomodation to live.

She came by to do a smoke detector check while my baby was sleeping. I asked if she could come back a little later, and instead of being understanding, she texted me afterward calling us "non-compliant." That was completely unfair and unnecessary, especially considering I was just trying not to wake my baby. On top of that, Patty's attitude is consistently rude and unapproachable. She always seems irritated or angry, which makes it very uncomfortable a resident to communicate concerns or even ask basic questions. Solara's motto is "Live Happy," but unfortunately that has not been our experience at all mainly because of how interactions with Patty have gone. It's hard to feel comfortable or supported when management treats residents this way.

I thoroughly enjoyed calling Maddox Apartments home for three wonderful years, and I can honestly…read moresay it was an exceptional experience. From day one, the sense of peace and comfort here made it feel like a true sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. A special and heartfelt thank you to Cynthia and the entire team. Their dedication is evident in every detail: the lush, beautifully manicured grounds that are always pristine, and their quick responsiveness whenever a need arose. They consistently went above and beyond, making residents feel valued and cared for. If you're looking for a vibrant, party-centric atmosphere, Maddox Apartments may not be the right fit. This is a community where tenants truly appreciate quiet, tranquility, and respect for one another--a rare and wonderful quality that makes it feel like home. I'm deeply grateful for my time here and highly recommend Maddox Apartments to anyone. -KG

I lost my mom in 2021 in the middle of a year long lease in one of those fancy complexes in Irvine…read more It was very difficult, isolating, and very sad to say expensive to be stuck in that complex. It was noisy, they construction of the building was so bad that you couldn't have a private conversation, it smelled like pee everywhere and you had to be careful anywhere you stepped because the grass was full of dog poop - though you could tell you were approaching it by the smell and flies. The exterior of these really beautiful complexes are basically toilets for dogs - and no one cares. So imagine how happy I was and how lucky I felt to be approved to live in the small, beautifully manicured, very private, very quiet, oasis called Maddox Apartments. You can't tell when you drive past it because it's hidden behind the from fence, but upon entry you are going to be met by beautifully kept flower beds, freshly mowed grass, clean pathways, and bright blue pool. I was very struck by it when I first visited and I felt at home right away. Then I met Cynthia and her team and I knew that I needed to live at Maddox if I was going to recover from my mom's death. I got my apartment, I moved in and I was so, so happy for a whole year. I had virtually no issues, but the minor ones I had were handled almost immediately and correctly. The entire maintenance team is incredibly nice and accommodating, and most important, punctual! I would have lived there very happily for a very long time, but I got an opportunity to move to Europe about 8 months into my lease and I just could not pass that up. But I left and remain on good terms with the team. I credit the serenity of the complex and the kindness of the management team with helping me get through the worst time of my life, I loved my little apartment, it was exactly what I needed. If I ever have to move back to the US, it will be to OC. The first door I knock on for a place to stay will be Maddox Apartments.

I also love that it's near residential areas too so I'm able to go on my outdoor walks that aren't drowned out by the sounds of larger street traffic. The units themselves are modern and spacious and the value per square foot is something you can't find anywhere else. The appliances work well and maintenance is on top of everything when things aren't working. They provide all the appliances you would need--microwave, fridge, dishwasher, oven, and in-unit washer dryer (which is my biggest non-negotiable). Most units here also have a half bath so it's nice to have guests over and they don't have to use your primary bath. One of the best perks of all is parking! There is ample parking for residents and guests, sometimes I even see empty spots after 6pm because people are constantly in and out. Other amenities include a nice gym that has a plenty of machines, a clubhouse, and a pool/jacuzzi. There is currently construction where they are building a new complex so beware the noise can get very loud at times, especially in the mornings.

Parking: A major plus of this community is that the parking spots are included with the rent price. I really appreciate this and it is a refreshing bonus.
