What Residents Say

Move-in conditions fall short of advertised photos, and persistent infrastructure failures define tenancy. AC runs hot for weeks or months despite repeated requests; water shuts off weekly; one maintenance worker cannot keep pace. Raccoons and cockroaches are routine. Office staff don't answer phones or return emails. Pool stays locked. Residents report security gaps, unsupervised children, and police visits. Breaking lease early, despite damage to rental history, has become common.

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.

Most residents experience attentive management and fast maintenance responses. Anthony, Brooke, Josie, and Daniel are repeatedly named for making lease-ups and repairs smooth. Grounds stay clean and trash is collected regularly. A minority reported leasing-office rudeness, especially to non-native speakers, and the practice of offering prizes for five-star reviews raises fairness questions. Utility outages and neighbor complaints surface occasionally, but rarely overshadow praise for staff care and value.
