Terrible attitude from the manager of this property Maria McGowen. From the start of this lady was rude and treating us as if we were criminals, we were not begging for nothing. All the documentation required was provided I wouldnt like to think that she was discriminating against us because we are

I lived here for 2 1/2 years and recently moved out. I was a participant in a housing program for foster youth who had multiple units at this complex. The management here, specifically Maria, is horrible to work with. She was extremely discriminatory towards all of the youth in the program including myself. When you tried talking with her about anything regarding the unit she would be very cold towards us. One of the program participants talked to Maria and Maria proceeded to say "You're one of THEM aren't you?" when the participant stated they were in the program. The apartment

Beware this place keeps your deposit no matter what I hire a cleaning person and clean the carpets and they still charge me a cleaning fee & new carpets plus more. The place always smell like mariguana, very noise near the freeway, a lots of spiders all over and the dog area was infested with flees. Pool was always dirty. several families live in one apartment and never anybody that rounds the place is around. beware

Sleezy property management company Property West Residential. Do not bother asking for your security deposit back. They will not answer calls. When you do finally get them on a call, theyll say whatever to get you to stop calling them, but will not send you your deposit check.
AVOID ALL PROPERTY UNDER THE ELAN BRAND.

Just moved in, be here for about 3 weeks and there is trash all over the bushes, tried calling the office and going more than 5x + no one picking up & having to leave messages. Since I got here people have been parking in my parking spot while my husbands at work; not appropriate. & besides that so many things were wrong with the apartment i got before I moved in hope not to get charged when I move out.
