What Residents Say

Maintenance failures dominate the experience. Repairs like toilet fixes, AC units, and dishwasher replacements languish for three months or longer while office staff give promises they don't keep. Water leaks from upstairs bathrooms damage ceilings and floors, all three pools sit broken or empty, and pest infestations persist despite requests. New management (Lexy's team) and individual staff like Amy win praise for friendliness and effort, yet operational breakdowns continue. Residents report being told apartments are "move-in ready" when they need extensive fixes, and charged $900+ cleaning fees on move-out after years of unresolved issues.

The complex advertises itself as luxury apartments with amenities, but reviewers consistently encounter aging infrastructure, noise from thin walls, and management indifference. A few five-star reviews credit the new team's friendliness and lower prices, but eight of the last 16 reviews are one-star complaints. Long-term residents describe three years of problems; a month-long tenant lists seven unresolved work orders in five weeks. The pattern suggests systemic failures in maintenance staffing or accountability, not isolated incidents.

Common Renter Questions

Are the pools available to use?
Reviewers consistently report pools are closed or empty. One of three has water but is shut for maintenance or appears dirty. Residents say they've never seen a pool actually open.
How quickly does maintenance respond to repair requests?
Repairs often take three months or longer. Reviewers report submitting work orders and never seeing maintenance arrive, or being told 'next day' repeatedly. No timeframe is honored.
What happens if I have pest problems?
Reviewers report pest control requests go unanswered. Residents say they must buy their own pest control to manage cockroach infestations, which the complex does not address despite complaints.

The Keller Apartments offers budget-friendly rent in a north-central location, but reviews split sharply on whether it delivers. Newer management has cut maintenance wait times to 24-48 hours and eliminated bug complaints for some tenants, yet dozens describe chronic roach and ant infestations, non-functional hot water, and move-in units far dirtier than toured models. Staff turnover and leasing office availability remain pain points; one 12-year resident cited gunshots and dismissive responses about security. The complex lists renovated units with granite counters and fireplaces, but most negative reviews reveal thin flooring, warped cabinets, and units that look nothing like the tour before move-in. Pet fees run $300 deposit plus $25/month. A handful of satisfied recent tenants praise the price point and current management's turnaround; others warn that promises made during tours do not match the apartment you receive.

Strong leasing staff, particularly Evelyn, make new move-ins feel genuinely supported. Grounds stay clean and rent stays reasonable. But a subset of residents report severe roach infestations, mold painted over in units, and retaliatory treatment after lease signing that required corporate intervention. Staff attitudes reportedly shift dramatically once paperwork is signed. The roach complaints span multiple years with no sign of resolution. Management responsiveness splits sharply. Some residents see swift maintenance replies and respect; others describe threats, excessive fines, and retaliation for complaints. Maintenance calls for legitimate issues like bathroom leaks got prompt fixes. But pest problems and poor initial unit condition define the negative reviews and appear unresolved.

Strong staff effort at leasing doesn't translate to livable conditions. Despite recent management ownership (DGE Investments) showing visible renovation work and responsive maintenance on AC and some repairs, the complex is plagued by constant water shutoffs (often daily), pervasive roaches that appear inside units despite pest control services, and operational failures like a non-functional gated gate. Residents report paying for pest control without a signed agreement and facing threats of fees for entry denials. The property's age is offset by deteriorating infrastructure, inconsistent upkeep, and mixed staff courtesy that ranges from Victoria's praised attentiveness to rude dismissals at the office. Infrastructure and pest problems dominate complaints across nine months of reviews. While some tenants find value in cheaper rents and willing maintenance for AC issues, others describe homelessness on grounds, break-ins, overflowing trash, and a laundry room that lacks cleanliness. One reviewer documented a pool failure that took weeks to repair and a fire response with a wrong unit number that wasn't corrected for 45 minutes. The balance of evidence suggests management improvement efforts are real but overwhelmed by the property's fundamental maintenance and pest control failures.
