    Where do I start. The gate has been broken forever. No one ever answers the phone. They constantly go up on the rent and say it's because of the water usage in the complex. The roaches are out of this world. The apartment itself is dark and poorly lit. There were so many shootings every month that I had to lie and tell my children that they were firecrackers. I think There is a drug ring across the street because of the constant undercover police activity in the complex across the street. Homeless people everywhere. Crime rate is sky high in this area (Google it). My family and I moved here because we needed to get on our feet but as soon as we were standing we got out of there and never looked back! The mouths on the children in this complex is appalling. The residents are always arguing. People hop the wall and enter to complex constantly. Police are in the complex at least 1 time every couple weeks. Domestic issues all the time. Loud music at night. The pond is a friggin' mosquito nest. Once the city had to come out because all of the little fish in the pond died and we had vultures the size of toddlers swarming our complex. Beware, beware, beware! Stay Away!

    The place is not bad, the manager makes it look like that, Bianca Dias shouldn't be the manager of these complexes

    Very unprofessional. Do not care about property or residents. Infested with roaches. Poor maintenance practices. Constantly go up on rent and use HUD as an excuse. Sewage backup problems and no one responds to after hours number.

    They do not answer the phones. We were trying to move there and had started our application process a entire MONTH AGO and now we are faced with living in a hotel with our 3 kids This was a horrible experience. Obviously the people at Lavista Oaks does not care about anyone or thing. I will NOT be moving here. They took my money for Application fee and holding deposit but will not return my calls leaving me and my kids in a bind during a pandemic

    Do you have anything lower than a one star!!! They got a manager that thinks she's a queen of the Apts and it's full of roaches and will not fix nothing and you will not get your deposit back if the apt is clean or not!!!

    I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!!! My mother applied and was denied cuz she made $200 too little and they wouldn’t help her with the apartment she did qualify for!!!! She offered to pay right there and HE STILL DIDNT WANT TO HELP!!! I hope the man who was working in the office today (July 29, 2021) Gets FIRED!!!! The amount of disrespect she received is un unacceptable!!! She was willing to quit her job so she qualified!! I hope this issue is fixed before anyone has to go through what she went through

    This place is a scam. The management and staff here is pure garbage. They take your money if you're lucky enough to reach anyone on the phones which they do not answer and if you are lucky enough to get someone on the phone they act like you are bothering them. After they take your money that's it.... no more contact from them. The property is in disrepair and needs a massive make over and upkeep both indoors and outdoors.

    Why are there so many posts and responses from the Owner saying to reach out to the Office number, when no one answers the phone (during office hours) and the voicemail is FULL. This gives a new level of frustration. Fix this…please.

    Nice apartments but they don't do upkeep to the property at all. Don't clean the pool correctly. Roofing with holes allowing critters to come in.

    Very bad service in everything, they do not serve many cockroaches, they do not fumigate the complex, the office does not serve, they are very disgusting with the tenants, they do not fix anything in the apartments
