If I could give zero stars, I would. I applied for a 2 bedroom and paid the $35 application fee. When I applied, the price advertised for the apartment was $850 with a $45 fee for water, sewer, and trash. And then the $400 deposit OAC (which I thought was a little high for an apartment to begin with, especially with no amenities). I was approved quickly and then she laid it on me that the deposit was going to be $600. I, of course, was confused with having great credit and sufficient income. When I asked her why it increased she responded with, "I'm not sure why they increased it, they didn't give me a reason." When she did get "the reason", I was told that it had nothing to do with me and that they were "raising it for everyone." I let her know that I would think about it. I figured with the rent being so great for the quality of apartment and size, why not consider it, right? Well after two days I called back and let her know that I would pay the $600 with one condition, she would need to find a way for me to look at the apartment I would be moving into for me to gauge the condition (there was no way for me to look at an apartment prior to applying as there were no units empty at the time). She responds with, "Oh by the way, the rent is raising to $950 plus the $45 fee." Of course I told her absolutely not as I have a strict budget and would have never even applied if the $950 rent and $600 deposit were advertised. I requested that they remove the inquiry from my credit as well as refund the $35 application fee. That was a month ago, and of course I haven't heard back. In additon, she argued with me about when they run people's credit it doesn't show up on their report because it is a soft inquiry. I had to educate her on how credit inquiries work. That just goes to show you the incompetence of these people, and how they are still in business is beyond me. I would highly recommend AGAINST even applying for an apartment here, they are con artists to the fullest extent.
