The apartments are beautiful and the concierge staff are friendly. However, the management company (Aimco / Air Communities) is downright terrible. TLDR: Management did not give me the apt I signed for and withheld $300 from my deposit after I moved out based on made-up fees. First, I signed a lease for a specific apartment last year during the pandemic because of its unique layout (I was interested in no other apartment in the building). I get a casual email 15 days before the move-in date with NO apologies, saying the current resident has decided to renew the apartment you signed, here are some other units we have available. Management /leasing office did not even have the courage or courtesy to call me about completely violating my lease intentionally and I only read the email 9 days before my scheduled move. As a result I was forced to accept another unit in the building so I wouldn't be homeless in a pandemic. After much negotiation, the most they offered me was the same deal I had for the previous unit I signed for, with no extra concessions for their intentional breach of my lease. Then, when my lease was close to ending and I gave my notice to move out, I was informed that my apt has been leased out to a new tenant. However, a few days later I get an offer from management to renew my lease for the same apt. I was shocked that despite them already leasing out the apt, they still wanted to see if I (as a current tenant) wanted to renew my lease, and if they got a better deal from me, they intend to breach the lease with the new tenant, just like they did to me initially. This is fraud -- intentionally offering something you don't actually have and are not at liberty to sell. Second, the move out charges are ABSURD. They charged me $275 for paint and $25 for damage to keys even though I didn't damage the apartment or the keys. All round, the management's money-grabbing policies screws over tenants. Edit: Management also entered my apartment BEFORE I moved out without asking for my permission. Management have not reached out to me about this review, despite what they claim here.
