What Residents Say

Auburn Creek Apartments delivers starkly divided experiences: some families praise responsive maintenance and friendly office staff, while others report severe roach infestations, ignored work orders, and management that fails to enforce lease terms despite collecting pet fees. Billing surprises (unwanted cable charges), equipment breakdowns with price hikes, and a pattern of complaints suggest inconsistent service levels across buildings.

The complex advertises pet-friendly amenities but reviewers repeatedly cite management hostility toward animals and a property overrun by strays. While a minority report good stays, the volume of complaints about neglected maintenance requests, safety concerns (theft, harassment), and unresponsive management outweighs positive experiences. Long-term residents describe a revolving-door community where families leave within months.

  • clean amenities (pool, gym)

Common Renter Questions

Are pets really allowed here?

How fast is maintenance response?
One reviewer praised quick response; another reported one visit in a year and incomplete fixes. A third noted work orders taking days. Response times appear inconsistent.
What's included in the move-in cost?
Their website advertises up to 8 weeks free on select units. Reviewers report unexpected charges: a $97 monthly cable/internet fee applied despite tenant refusal, and valet trash charges for services not delivered.

Sundance draws sharply split reviews. Longer-term residents praise maintenance crew responsiveness and recent upgrades, while newer or departing tenants report rude office staff, unresolved maintenance (AC, roof leaks, appliances) dragging on months, and pest issues. The property manager DeAiron and maintenance team earn loyalty, but upper management's spending limits and leasing office conduct create frustration. A disabled senior notes Chance and Ronnie provide immediate help; another resident saw 10-minute maintenance response times post-renovation. Conversely, tenants report months-long waits for AC repairs, toilet leaks, and broken ovens met with dismissal from office staff. Cultural disrespect during disputes has been reported.

Maintenance and management shine here, with residents regularly naming Daniel, Anthony, Josie, and Brooke for genuine, fast help. The grounds stay clean, tenants report fast repairs, and move-ins run smoothly. One recent complaint flags the leasing office as unprofessional and dismissive toward non-English speakers, and staff tone varies sharply depending on who you encounter. The gap between maintenance quality and office conduct stands out. While the business offers furnished units, pet options, and 24-hour emergency service, newcomers should expect reliability from technical staff but may hit friction at the desk. The raffle incentive for five-star reviews also raised a red flag for one reviewer.

Recent reviews show a stark divide: residents praise Erika's management for professionalism, responsiveness, and community care, with grounds now kept clean and maintenance handled quickly. Older reviews document serious failures-prolonged water and hot water outages, ignored repairs, and management indifference-though these appear to predate the current leadership.
