As a property owner/manager myself in Illinois I am completely disappointed in their practices. Upon my daughter fulfilling her lease we had her apartment professionally cleaned and everything was in perfect order upon our departure. She was charged a 5.5 hr cleaning fee, charged for all service calls that were made during her tenancy, furnace filters, light bulbs, and a dumping fee when nothing was left behind were also charged. This company is taking full advantage of our students. One of the joys of renting is not having to be charged for a service call if items that were provided become inoperable.

0.25 star rating. They says they're property managers but all they do is collect money. They just…read morewent up on rent 100 a month "do to utitlity increase" i called all utility providers for my Apt (opportunity drive & Vintage hills area) and asked how much utilities went up in the past year. All of them said none except for tv and it was $5/month. So $60 a year increase overall but they're collecting an extra $1200 a month off just me. There's over 100 units but we will use 100 for easy math. That's $120,000 a year extra that they're pocketing because of "utilities" I called them out on it but they said I was lying and that wasn't true and wouldn't really speak anymore about it while I had them on the phone. The side of my building had moldy green algae for over 2 years. My floor has glue coming through the cracks, it collects dirt hair trash etc. socks stick to it when you walk across. I called and told them I was done cleaning the clue (which had to be done every two weeks) and they told me that the glue issue was the builder's responsibility. I haven't had grass in my yard since I've moved in which is a nightmare in the winter time especially having a dog. Oh and anyone that can be forgetful about paying something on a particular day beware when they say rent is due the first there is no grace period on that. If it's not paid on the first come the second day of the month they're charging late fees. if you rent from them I recommend auto pay

YES this is a long review because I hate when reviews lack information. This will be VERY…read moreINFORMATIVE! :) I am a freshman at Murray State and live off campus. This is my FIRST apartment and I couldn't be happier with it. When I seen the 2 star rating I knew I had to leave a review because this place is definitely worth 5 stars. The owners are so very nice. They are an older couple and really take pride in the apartments they provide. Before each person moves in, they are professionally cleaned. TO MILITARY STANDARDS. I have a 1 bedroom 1 bath and all amenities are paid except for electric/internet. AND, because I rent with Venture properties, I get a DISCOUNT on my internet... and cable comes free. I got my first electric bill in the mail and it was 37$ INCLUDING INTERNET. I was so happy about that. We really try to keep the lights off and save energy as much as we can, but that is still very cheap. Since it's cold we've been blasting the heat and I really thought it was going to run up the bill since we have the one "hotel style" wall ac/heating unit in the living room. I was worried it wouldn't work well but that thing really heats up this apartment quick.The apartment has a washer and dryer which is FANTASTIC. I was dreading having to rent something that had an on site laundry mat. It also has updated appliances including a microwave, stove, and fridge. I looked at a few apartments through Venture and they all had hardwood floors throughout- I got lucky and snagged an apartment that has carpet in the bedroom. As a girl, I was of course a little afraid to move out on my own because people can be horrible. But this apartment complex makes me feel very safe. There are alarm systems in every apartment and it costs 20$ a month extra when you pay rent. Totally worth that, but I don't even PAY FOR IT because I feel that safe. There are security lights everywhere not counting the porch lights. Besides, Murray's crime rate is so very low, and nearly every renter in this complex is a Murray State student. We aren't ALL students though. I have seen a couple of elderly people that live across the way. I pay 450 for rent and I paid 150 for electric on a high month. For around $550 You can have a very nice apartment. There is a deposit.. I think it was 450 since we have a 1 bedroom. If you move in mid month, rent is prorated. I only paid the deposit+ like 122 for rent for a prorated 2 weeks or so. that helps with start up fees... you don't have to pay an entire month's rent up front. Other apartments in this area for less than 500 were so scary and dirty. Do not bother with COLEMAN REAL ESTATE. They do not care what the condition is when you look at the apartment. I was shocked at how disgusting and ghetto some places were that they sent me to. The Oaks Apartments were very disappointing and assume all of the other apartments in that area would be the same way. I would have been terrified to walk around barefoot in my own apartment and would've had to install extra locks on all the doors if I had rented from there... I literally get to school in less than 5 mins. Everyone is very quiet and keeps to themselves. I've been living here for a month and haven't heard anybody be loud. There is plenty of space for parking. NO BUGS. The bathrooms are nice. The showers are big. I am a little spoiled and am used to having a large bedroom and have a very large queen bedroom suit. I was afraid it wouldn't fit into the bedroom but with everything in there, I am surprised at how much room we have. Oh, I live with my boyfriend and there is enough room for us both to have everything here... it's a pretty good sized place. I believe they have other properties besides Venture but don't know anything about them. I bet they are fantastic just like these. CLEAN. UPDATED APPLIANCES. SAFE. SPACIOUS. GREAT LANDLORDS. CHEAP RENT. THEY take care of the mowing/weedeating. Nearly every amenity included. It was MOM APPROVED... can't get much better than that. I love living here and would HIGHLY recommend it to anybody. EDIT****************** I recently had an issue with my washer not working properly. They came right over when I told them there was an issue with it and it was fixed by the next day. They were very nice about it and got it done QUICKLY. That's good management.

I rented my very first apartment with venture properties not exactly knowing what to expect, but I…read morewas overall disappointed with the experience. The inside of the apartment is very outdated, including all the kitchen appliances and the bathroom. I was fine with it since the rent itself was inexpensive. However, the heating and cooling units were very old which caused the monthly electric to be very costly. Definitely not worth it. As another persons review said, the walls are paper thin. I could hear any and everything my neighbor was doing which was terrible and creepy honestly. The biggest disappointment I have with venture properties is that after complying with the instructions to move out, only HALF of my deposit was returned. Do not rent from this business unless you intend to be taken advantage of.

I lived at this apartment complex for three years without any issues, but my experience changed…read morecompletely when I moved out. I always paid my rent on time, kept my apartment clean, and was a responsible tenant. However, despite all of that, I never received my full security deposit back. I cleaned the apartment twice before moving out, but I was still charged a $140 cleaning fee. I was also hit with a $150 charge for a window sash, which I offered to fix myself for only $15--he refused. To top it off, I was charged $498 for painting, even though he informed me he paints every time a tenant moves out, regardless of condition. What's even more upsetting is that I know of another tenant who left their apartment in much worse condition and got their full deposit refunded. To make matters worse, my father passed away in June, and I was let go from my job after six years. Yet, during this already difficult time, Andy took advantage of me and acted dishonestly. When I was in the process of buying a tiny home, Andy even asked for a list of supplies I needed, only to give those items away the very day my brother was going to get them for me. I gave him a 90-day notice before moving out and was never evicted. If you'd asked me a couple of months ago, I would've given him 5 stars. But now, I can't recommend him or this complex to anyone. It's been a stressful, unfair experience, and now I'm taking him to court.

They have terrible customer service…read more First of alllll they told my roommate at the time he had an apt for her then rented it to someone else so that's shady #1 second of all there was spiders all the time. I'm talkin I would find a spider every week, doubt they sprayed for bugs cuz there's loads of em. Found a brown recluse in the glue traps. And the glue traps were set out because ... you guessed it .. mice saw once scurry across the kitchen. Don't even get me started on the washer and drier!!!! Here I go ... the drier did not dry any of our clothes sooo we had to run it 2-3 times and the clothes might still be a little damp. They said our washer got the clothes too wet. Then they tried to fix the drier and they took out a vent and the whole bathroom felt like my own personal sauna? I mean saunas are cool but I want to do my make up without lookin like I just ran a half marathon... another time the washer leaked somehow??? And water flooded the bathroom floor so that was fun to clean... good bye bath mats .. And number 4 of my list: the back porch........ I think it could fall apart at any min .. js... y'all just need to reduce some things and stop being cheap... also our refund check should come sooner than 60 days that's ridiculous and the fact we have to be all there is too when I live 2 hours away... aka gas money, waste of time ... there were many other things broken outlets, toilet not properly attached, y'all just think about this thanks
