From the on-line pictures, this place looks like a million bucks, large apartments, carefully…read moretended grounds and a bubbling brook that cascades throughout the grounds. Well, the reality is, there is a brook, and the apartments are adequately sized, but that value has depreciated quite a bit with time. But let me be fair- its been 25 years since I lived in an apartment complex so maybe I'm expecting too much. Here are the pros of this place. I like the full sized washer and dryer in each unit. And I like having a dishwasher and microwave included. I like that there is either a balcony or patio with each unit and that the quantity of windows lets in a ton of natural light (and my unit faces north). I like that they are set up as condos with each unit having it's own outside entrance and that they answer maintenance issues within a week which is pretty good given the size of this complex. Some units even have a fireplace (I think these are the upper units) There is also a decent pool as well as a work out room available for the residents. On the downside, the water pressure is quite low (can barely wash my hands in the bathroom), when it rains, there is water everywhere washing out what once was beautiful landscaping, and there is really limited storage in each unit although the extra closet out on the patio helps a little. The carport that I pay extra for is quite a walk away ( a sidewalk would help) and the hill behind it washes out with each downpour making a muddy mess to walk through. It's not quiet but the noise doesn't come from my neighbors, it comes from a bad design that puts the air conditioning units outside the bedroom window so not only do I hear it when my unit kicks in, but also when my neighbor's unit kicks in. All in all, Pinnacle Woods is okay. To some it might even be considered really nice. For me? It just reminds me of why I stopped living in an apartment all those years ago.

Rent increased by $130 for my 2 Bedroom 2 Bathroom in my first year. Appliances are terrible. Sinks…read moreare made of the cheapest white polymer that stains super easily instead of ceramic. Kitchen counters are also made of laminate/particleboard that stains extremely easily. During my first month here, I had to fix the PVC pipes under my own kitchen sink. I also personally had to unclog the shower drains from the previous renter. Also, PARKING SUCKS. You will likely be unable to find parking spaces at night, so their solution is to provide rentable parking spaces to their tenants. These additional parking spaces are $30/month for a "garage," which is really just awnings. There has been a tire-eating pothole in the front of the complex for lord knows how long, and they are finally getting around to fixing it after months of living here. One would expect a booming college town like Lawrence to have better apartment complexes.

Kimberly is, in a word, fabulous. I highly recommend her! Not only does she have a great…read morepersonality but she truly cares about selling your house. She scheduled open houses every two weeks. If she was out of town she had an associate do it instead. She explained everything carefully. She told me how to decorate to get the house sold, she even rearranged my refrigerator. My husband was tempted to leave me in Lawrence and take her with him to Minnesota since she was so well organized. I wish that she had at least come with us, I could use her here!!!

We have been in our house 2 years. One evening our landlord came up for a visit.they let us know…read morethat her brother was moving back to town and had bought the family home. this is where we were living out in the country. we have dogs kids and chickens and this is where we like to be.we had to be out pretty quick and were caught unaware, we could not find anything. we have looked and looked and looked. Lawrence is a very difficult town to find a rental in especially if you're a family and you've had some problems in your life and gone thru a divorce and had a spouse thats ruined your credit. it seems no one wants to help you these days. people are all about themselves, nobody quite wants to really help it's really sad that life has become all about business. I ran into this after trying to get several places and not having an adequate credit score.I kept trying, I found a house that I really liked and called, it was a realtor that was managing. Kimberly Williams with McGrew real estate, she said I'll be glad to show it to you but the landlord requires a 600 credit score and yaddy yaddy yaddy.I said well that's not going to work for us and then I said can I tell you a little bit about us? she said yes so I told her my story and to my amazement she really cared she told me to write my story down and to email it to her and she would go to her client and see if she might make an exception and give our family a much-needed break. The next day she got back with me and told me the client did not want to rent with us I guess she's one of those that it's all about the money and not giving someone another chance I've never had an eviction and I've never owed anyone money on rent I just needed a little help. this is not where I wanted to be at 55. I just want to say this is the first review that I'm going to compliment somebody on and thank them for their help and that will be Kimberly Williams because I was somebody that didn't have a pot to piss in and she still went out of her way to try and help me. now the thing is I'm going to be coming into some money in about 6 months quite a lot of money and I'm going to buy a house and I'm not going to call the Chaney's but I'm going to call Kimberly and she's going to sell me a house because my money is green enough for her, so if you're looking for a house, put your money on her thank you Kimberly!!!

Spent three years in this complex, and it was fine enough…read more The "gym" was sad, the treadmills were noisy and mostly broken. And it is far too small for more than two people to be in there at once. The hot tub never worked as long as I lived there, but the pool was nice and well kept. Our apartment was nice and spacious. Our neighbors were mostly fine, but you can always hear people walking up and down the stairs/breezeway through the walls which isn't ideal. We had one set of noisy neighbors, to which management told us to call the cops because they couldn't do anything about it. That wasn't a pleasant or helpful solution. Our AC went out *every* year we lived there. Our apartment got up to 80 degrees and we had to get our cat shaved to keep him from overheating this past April. I had to yell at the poor front desk girl to get them to help us at all. They replied with "we don't have to fix the air conditioning until it's 80 degrees outside". As in they won't help you unless they're legally required, how nice of them. In our first year we were without one of our bathtubs because it was broken and they didn't get it fixed for almost four months. But when our kitchen counter started falling and separating from the wall they resealed it very quickly. The parking wasn't ever great. I frequently had to walk quite a ways to get home after getting home from work in the evenings. Overall, it was a fine place to be but we were happy to leave and move on.

We didn't have an appointment for a tour or anything like that but we had looked at the website prior so we know what we liked that was open. We walked in and we were greeted perfectly by TieRre who was incredibly sweet and ran us through everything we needed to know about the apartment we saw online!! It wasn't quite done with its renovations but we were able to get a good look at the apartment, which is absolutely beautiful! We went home and immediately knew this was the place we wanted to live. The process of applying online can be a little difficult for someone who hasn't done it before but TieRie was always emailing us back with any questions we had, and helped us through the whole process! If he missed a phone call from us, he was super quick to get back to us with an email to let us know about anything we asked!! He talked about the community and the perks you get, and how he himself lives in this complex and loves it!! We are beyond excited to move in to our apartment in August, and can't wait to live in the community! Thanks again for everything you do TierRie you're amazing!!
