What Residents Say

Management and maintenance turnovers have sharply divided tenant experience. Recent leadership has invested in lighting, parking enforcement, and rapid repairs, winning praise from those who value the medical district location and low rents. Older units plague residents with roaches, thin floors, and inadequate pest control; some tenants report management resorting to AI-generated responses and selective policy enforcement. Long-term stability remains unclear given past staffing swings.

Students and medical professionals are drawn by proximity to UT Health Science Center and affordable rents ($700-$890), but face hidden costs: lease-break fees, disputed move-out charges, and monthly add-on fees. The complex works best for those who can document issues thoroughly and tolerate aging infrastructure while management attempts recovery.

  • friendly, bilingual management
  • safe environment under current leadership
Watch-outs

Maintenance, Management & More

Student Housing
Highly convenient to UT Health Science Center; affordable, but roach infestations and noise control issues reported by residents.
Pet-Friendly Apartments
Website lists pet-friendly designation; no specific reviews mention pets or pet policies.
Affordable & Section 8 Housing
Rents of $700-$890 attract cost-conscious renters, but add-on fees, lease-break penalties, and disputed move-out charges offset headline affordability.

Tour-goers consistently praise leasing staff like Sunny and Kayla for patience and knowledge, and residents enjoy the fitness center and pool. However, long-term residents report a sharp decline since management changed: amenities sit uncleaned for weeks, gym access was suspended without notice, gates fail to secure cars, and management ignores requests for days. Lease-end fees appear with no warning months after move-out; residents pay for pest control and valet trash that don't arrive as promised.

Cache at Oak Hills has declined sharply after strong early reviews under previous management. Recent complaints center on an absent leasing office, chronic hot water outages, and a controversial service dog policy that violates ADA law, forcing residents with certified service dogs to choose between their pets and housing.

Staff excellence drives the experience here. Leasing agent Alexis Dominguez and property manager Angela Frieda consistently earn praise for attentiveness and warmth during tours and move-ins. Maintenance supervisor Tony Ortiz responds quickly to repair requests, often resolving issues within hours, and residents note his reliability and cheerful demeanor across lawn care, AC work, and general upkeep. Residents value the modern 2-bedroom layouts, attached garages, gated security, and amenities like the fitness center and pool. The community feels safe and quiet, with landscaping and common areas kept clean. Pricing is noted as reasonable for the quality offered, and the online maintenance ticketing system removes friction from small damage reports.
