I have not lived at Vista Gardens for the past four years, yet management is refusing to remove my…read morename from the lease. In April 2025, the property manager, Janel, confirmed in writing that if I completed and returned the lease addendum provided by the office, I would be removed from the lease. I followed those instructions exactly and submitted the signed document as requested. Despite this, Michelle from the office and other staff members are now refusing to honor the very addendum that their office supplied and instructed me to complete. This has been extremely frustrating and feels like a clear disregard for their own written agreements. Based on my experience, I feel these are very questionable leasing practices. Management has not honored their word or the legally signed addendum they provided. In addition, during the time I lived there, the property frequently had issues including ongoing bug infestations and water being shut off on a regular basis. Unfortunately, because management refuses to honor the written agreement confirming my removal from the lease, I will now be forced to pursue the matter through Small Claims Court simply to be removed from a lease for an apartment I moved out of four years ago. No tenant should have to go to these lengths just to have a property management company follow through on their own written commitments.

*Update 6/6/25- I cannot stress enough how helpful Mia and Myrah in the office have been through…read morethis whole ordeal. If not for them alone this issue would have been escalated much further than it had been. Upon hearing our concerns regarding our first month in the complex they have gone well above the standard and made things right. More than I can say for their bosses that like to sit out of sight and out of mind, and never bothered to reach out to us or take our calls. So if your supervisors see this, please give both of these ladies a raise or more help in the office to get caught up on what I have a feeling is piles of backed up work that you just shoved onto them because of poor planning that they now have to take the brunt of.. but again, massive kudos to the ladies in the office for helping us out and securing us a more than adequate offer to transfer units so that this unit we were in can get the work it needs so some other new tenant down the line doesn't have to go through what the past tenants have. Bringing the stars up ONLY because of how helpful Mia and Myrah have been this whole time. * If there was a way to give 0 stars right now I absolutely would. We haven't been moved in for just over a month and it has been nothing but problem after problem after problem at this complex. We were moved into a lower unit that is listed here to have experienced these issues already, and since we have moved in I have had to clean disgusting carpets that were not cleaned prior to us moving in (after seeing their review it makes sense from this slumlord looking property) I have had constant issues with a faulty electrical panel that after a professional came to inspect and correct recommend it be fully replaced as it was "scorched, shoddy, and a potential fire hazard" that keeps tripping if I use a toaster and a phone charger in my kitchen at the same time... we have been battling a constant presence of German Roaches that pre-dated our move in which points to a prior infestation left untreated which have still been dealing with to this day, and are now at the point of wanting to break contract because it feels like we were placed in a filthy unit that was not properly cleaned and prepped just so they could STEAL our money from us. Not to mention the fact that we pay for access to a gated community to park in but I haven't seen the gate work since I moved in. So if your cars get broken into here don't expect much else since they can't provide that simple amenity. If ownership even has the STONES to reach out to me, you can read this review and you can show up down here to talk to me. I'm serious, I would love to point out every little thing you need to fix, and I would truly like to re-discus our contract before I discern there is a course for legal action.. Anyways, if you're looking for a first place (or any place for that matter) PLEASE look elsewhere. I can't stress that enough, because it feels like the parent company is just a bunch of patchwork slum jockeys who just want to take your money. For everyone's viewing pleasure, please refer to just a sample of what my first month of this apartment has looked like. I'm sure everyone would love to be dealing with roaches everyday they wake up or come home from work right??? Anyway, ball is in your court evRIA. And I'm only the first of two tenants you got in here that would love to discuss this. Because my review was tame, my other half... well good luck..

Nonetheless, I was told by their professional advisors that the issue comes from the actual AC unit that powers that whole Building, and the owners didn't want to repair because it cost too much.

Where do I even begin? Since moving in back in late September 2023, this place has been a constant…read moresource of stress and frustration. From the apartment itself to the management, and especially the people living around us -- it's been one issue after another. The unit? A disaster wrapped in cheap paint. Cabinets glued shut, doors barely working, closets and balconies that feel like they'll snap off at any moment. The entire apartment is covered in layers of paint so thick they've sealed things shut. Even now, months later, the chemical smell still lingers in the air. Water service is inconsistent at best. It shuts off randomly -- right when you need it. The hot water is unreliable, and the water pressure is so weak it's practically nonexistent. That ties directly into our dishwasher, which hasn't worked since day one. We've had it replaced three times, and each time it somehow got worse -- cheaper, less effective, and still leaves soap and food residue on everything. Everything in this apartment feels like it was built to break. The toilet, the sinks, the doors -- it's all cheap, fragile, and barely functional. Now let's talk about the infestation. Ants and bees were everywhere during the warmer months. We lived with bees for what felt like forever until maintenance finally got around to removing their nest. Ants kept showing up even after sealing every crack I could find. Winter was the only reason they stopped -- for now. But here's where it really goes downhill -- the noise, the neighbors, and the non-stop disruption. This isn't just our problem. It's a complex-wide issue that no one seems to want to fix. People slam their doors at all hours. Dogs bark endlessly. Arguments break out almost daily. There is zero soundproofing and even less respect for the people trying to live here peacefully. We've reported the constant noise over and over again, and management has done nothing. Just vague reassurances and no follow-through. The noise is so bad that it's affecting our health. My mother, who already struggles with sleep, has gone nights without a single hour of rest. And we're not alone -- we've spoken to other residents dealing with the same chaos. This is not a one-off neighbor issue. It's systemic. On top of that, every Tuesday like clockwork, the leaf blowers start blasting at 8 AM sharp -- for a full 30 minutes. And somehow, the grounds still look dirty afterward. Just noise for the sake of noise. The homeless situation only makes things worse. People break in regularly, the gates are constantly broken, and trash is left everywhere. It feels unsafe, unsanitary, and completely ignored by management. Even the laundry machines are a joke -- clothes come out barely washed, with a musty smell that clings no matter how many times you run the load. It's completely unacceptable for what we're paying. And if you think this is just one bad review, take a look at the others. You'll find a long list of residents just as fed up with the noise, the poor conditions, and the lack of accountability. This complex isn't just broken -- it's hostile to anyone trying to live a normal, peaceful life. Avoid it at all costs.
