Camden Belmont

Okay, seriously do not move here. The parking sucks big time and you will never find a spot after 8pm leaving you to park on the street. Honestly go hire an agent because you will find something so much better than this apartment complex for the same price. I’m literally moving into a new apartment complex that is only a year old with a full gym that doesn’t smell a nice pool and not to mention covered parking for all of the community. Another thing about this place is the people in management and who work in the leasing office are not willing to help you with problems and pretty much say «oh sorry we can’t do anything to help you» Well actually it’s just some people, one in particular is a huge B she literally hates life and everyone that lives in it, which is fine but take your attitude somewhere else ma’am her name is Brandi. I overheard her talking to someone as if they were stupid. The girl was asking for refund and she was stating the obvious and repeating the rules in a very patronizing way. Oh yeah also, the people around here don’t pick up their dogs ish and it’s super disgusting and there have been multiple times where there has been pee in the elevator. The list goes on and on. Never one to write a review but seriously take your money somewhere else and get yourself a nice place. With all the apartments around here you can definitely find something so much better. This place is not worth it TRUST ME!

EVERYTIME I have an issue with a situation after hours — like someone parking in my reserved parking spot (that I PAY for) or like tonight, a puppy shrieking/​barking/​whining in the middle of the night — camden home office answering service customer service reps say sorry they can’t really do anything about it and ALWAYS say they will call the courtesy officer (…which when we signed our lease, camden claimed to have an onsite officer who could assist residents to and from the parking garage after hours…)
The courtesy officers now are contracted out by a company called «US Security» which sounds incredibly SAFE to me. NO, NOT SKETCHY AT ALL.
The Camden home office answering service says they call the «officer» on duty every 15 minutes for 1 hour (which is literally only 4 times) before they give up and just send an email to the office manager at the leasing office. (Sidebar: if my boss had to call me 4 times just to get a hold of me WHEN I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DOING MY JOB… I would’t have a job anymore.)
So you might as well just send the office manager an email yourself and FORGET THE WHOLE OPERATION BECAUSE IT IS A COMPLETE WASTE OF EVERYONE’S TIME.
I honestly am disgusted by the policies and lack of COMMON SENSE here. I won’t even go into the parking situation — that’s for another time.
I asked the answering service at Camden home office to do one simple thing, contact the resident by phone to let her know her dog was barking like crazy, for everyone’s sake, and they wouldn’t even make one simple phone call. That is not what anyone would call exemplary customer service, that is some corporate bull*%{. It’s after midnight, on a week night, and the situation is still not resolved– the poor dog is still Unilocaling. No pun intended.

I’ve lived at Camden Belmont about 5 months now, and it is a wonderful place to live! I used to live in the heart of Uptown and wanted a more low-​key location, and this definitely fits the bill. I looked at almost every apartment in the area before deciding on Camden.
Biggest pros:
Price– I really wanted to live alone, and Camden by far had the most affordable one bedrooms in the area
Area– I’m so close to Henderson, lower Greenville, and one of my favorite bars (Strangeways) is right across the street! Not to mention they just built a new CVS right next to my building, which is super convenient. Walkable to a lot of places on Henderson, and just a short Über away from everything else
Staff– Throughout the leasing process they were so helpful and accommodating, and the service here has continued to be wonderful after move-​in.
Facilities– The gym is big and always clean, my building hallways are always clean, landscaping and grounds always look nice
Cons:
Area– Ok while I also listed this as pro, it’s worth noting that there are always a couple of homeless people hanging out on the side of the laundromat at Fizhugh and Belmont right by the parking lot entrance to building C… and by hanging out, I mean there is a man that pretty much lives there. That being said, I frequently walk to places on Fitzhugh (Strangeways, ZaLat, etc) and have never felt unsafe
Parking– I rarely have issues with parking, but sometimes if you come home late there won’t be spots available in the gated lot for building C. I can usually find street parking when this happens so it’s not really a big deal, but it may be for some.

I am about to move out. I am so sad! Out of all the apartment communities I have lived at I have never had the customer service that I have had here. I have enjoyed it and will definitely be moving back when I return back to the country.
It has been amazing from day 1. Camden is truly the best choice for apartment living!

The service here rocks! The staff has been awesome and been very attentive. They have listened to me and things get done quickly. While people talk about parking, I haven’t had any issues. They are also making some modifications to parking to make things better. I have found maintenance to be helpful and get any repairs needed taken car of quickly. Melissa was my leasing consultant and she was awesome! Everyone in the office has been extremely helpful. The location is awesome and very convenient as well. Apartments are spacious and modern. Great amenities and I’m happy I leased here!

I’ve only lived at Camdon Belmont for 3 months now but I don’t have a single complaint. The staff is friendly and helpful, the complex is quiet, and the location is perfect. The apartment itself is nice for the price and fairly modern. The gym is really convenient especially if you want to avoid crowded gyms and going back out into traffic. The Internet café is really useful, clean and computers are almost always available. (Not to mention the coffee machine which has various options for a quick fix.) The only minor inconvenience I’ve encountered is the parking. If you happen to get home past 8 p.m. you’re out of a parking spot at your building.

I just moved out of Camden Belmont. Lived there for 15 months, overall it was a good experience, the people in the office were nice, and the maintenance people were pretty quick when you need them. Nice location, I felt pretty safe walking at nights with all the renovations going on around the area. The only bad thing was that my lease renewal went up by 15% and they didn’t want to work with me even though I was a pretty good tenant, always paying my rent on time and all, they gave me the «this is what the market is at bs» which I understand but 15% it is just a little bit ridiculous. And it is not like when I moved there I got my apt in a «special» or anything like that so I still don’t get why the rent went up that high and I didnt even have the nice finishes in the apt. Never really used valet trash but you can’t get away without paying that. Other than that I would had stayed if my rent didn’t go up that high.

We have lived here for a little longer than 2 years and will be moving at the end of this year. Camden has been a great place to live. Reasonable, great location, love maintenance crew and most of the front office staff is friendly. My only issue is how fast they get on things. I am at the gym daily and the TVS that are attached to every cardio machine, have been out for over two months. When I called and asked, a month ago, when this would be fixed, she said ASAP and she was working on switching providers. It doesn’t take this long! This is something we were promised to have when we signed the lease and pay for nice amenities. I find this pretty ridiculous, especially for how packed the gym always is. You would think it would be a main priority. They also mentioned keeping towels and water in the gym and that happens maybe once a week. Never restocked

Awesome customer service when dealing with leasing. Fair pricing and friendly environment! Go see Noe

Love Noe! He’s always so helpful and happy to go out of his way for all residents to make sure that things are taken care of quickly and properly! Ask for Noe when you come in! He truly makes living at Camden Belmont feel like more of a community and not just renting an apartment.

I would highly recommend living in this complex. They handle maintenance issues in a timely manner and are very courteous if you are home during the maintenance. Picking up packages is easy and safe. They are delivered to the leasing office so you don’t have to worry about them being left unattended at your front door. It is walkable to many restaurants and bars. If you live facing Bennett, be aware that is a path for ambos and fire trucks. Sirens can get loud but they do not drive through too often. Excellent access to US75 and about a 10 minute car ride to Love Field Airport. Building D has very limited parking and there is not enough spaces for all residents. I would recommend getting a reserved spot if available. Overall a great place to live.

The camden has been a dream to live at. The apartment is great and incredibly reasonable, but the management by far makes it the best. Anything that we have needed they provided without question and any time something needs to be repaired, it has been taken care of that same day.
Highly recommend the camden belmont!

I’ve enjoyed living here. The staff are really what make this place what it is. Jarah, Steven, Sydney, Rachel, and Lauren are the best by far and they go beyond their duties to satisfy when they can. The apartments are always prompt on repairs. The parking can be a headache some times alone with gate codes. I see some of the people leaving reviews on the noise. I’m in building D and I’ve never heard my neighbors once in the 2 years that I’ve lived here. I’m certainly not a fan of the mandated valet trash pick up that they forced on us a year after I moved in. I love that it is walking distance to Da’Lat, Capitol Grill, Jakes, Subway, and Sushi Axiom. I will say that the security on site does suck though. I don’t think that I have ever seen the guard/​officer outside of the common area in building A. I certainly have never seen him around my building… in 2 years.

Great apartment and great management! Have lived here since October with no problems. Love our apartment, everything is fixed quickly when needed, great location to walk to fun places.

I’ve just recently moved into this complex and so far I don’t have any complaints! This afternoon I called to have an issue with my faucet resolved and Sydney from the leasing office when out of her way to help me. She was very kind and showed a genuine intrest in helping me. Josh and Hugo with maintenance staff are awesome as well. My roommate and I are so glad we ended up moving here. This complex is amazing!

Lived here for a year during college at SMU. Was conveniently located in between uptown bars and restaurants and SMU campus for classes, so perfect location.
The complex had two different pools in two of the buildings, both of which were usually fairly busy during the summer with people mostly in their mid-​twenties. So both pools were always fun to bring guests to on the weekends and met neighbors every time we went to the pool. The gym is small but has a ton of machines and is never too crowded, so you can always get a full workout in at multiple stations.
Lived in a two bedroom that was bigger than most others we had looked at in the same price range, so felt like the value was great. Just wish we had wood floors instead of carpeting in the living area and the office was sometimes difficult to get things quickly attended to by the leasing office — especially on weekends when there seemed to be only one or two managers in the office to assist residents and people looking to rent.

This place doesn’t even deserve a single star… But that’s the lowest you can give!!! Worst apartment complex in all if Texas! Not only is it sorry service for the renters here. They don’t even keep up with maintenance.
We lived her for over 7 months with them out even changing the air filters… When they did the filters looked 2 years old, which is probably accurate. We have been here 15 months and it’s only been changed once because we complained! You would think that would be against some regulations for apartment complexes, especially one that’s apart of camden!!!
That’s not even the worse… You don’t even get your own parking spot! That’s right you pay top dollar to live in uptown Dallas then in your own gated parking lot you don’t have your own spot. So if you get home after 7 with groceries and your 1 year old child don’t expect to have a parking spot, you will have to walk two blocks… And their solution to this is make you pay for a reserved spot and they only made 10 of them… Not enough for everyone! Also their will be cars parked in the fire lanes every night and in places that are not parking spots because again people don’t want to walk two maybe three blocks to get to there apartment… So the complexes solution to this is to how your vehicle. So you better have someone ready to call because you will be paying 200 dollars to get your car back!
Also keep on mind this place does not have on site security like they want to portray… They hire a outside company to come around and check the parking lots at night so they can tow residents, people that pay to live here’s cars! The security guard is also a very unprofessional… He has been blasted on the
site for residents, he harasses female visitors and guest.,. We have personal had a friend complain that came over one night and it seems to be common. Like I said multiple renters have posted about it! He also likes to wear a lot of gold jewelry, pretty unprofessional and doesn’t make you feel very safe!
Overall this is the worst managed apartment complex ever.,. I will never live in another camden owned property again!

I moved into Camden Belmont in September of 2013. The first few months were relatively incident-​free. However, this has changed dramatically since December or so.
The gate to my building’s lot has been broken for a month solid. It will get fixed and work properly for a day or two then break again leaving the parking lot wide open to anyone who wishes to enter. This is especially awesome when the security doors don’t latch automatically so all that is standing between you and anyone who wants to break in to your apartment is your front door.
The main elevator in my building is out for the fifth or sixth time in the last six months. The trees in the parking lot drop sap and no attempts have been made to correct this glaring issue.
The overnight guard’s hours were changed without ever notifying residents (he’s only here until 3am 5 days a week) and if he’s on vacation, there is no backup. Makes sense after a resident is robbed at gunpoint outside his/​her building this June, right?
They tout the property as Leed Silver Certified and say it is super quiet but I live on the fourth floor and hear every single car drive by. I don’t hear much noise through the walls but if there is noise on the street or in the hallway, you can hear it clear as day.
At one point a few months ago, someone knocked on my door at midnight on a Monday impersonating the police. The elevator was twice filled with those annoying 10 – 20 page weekly mailers; I’m talking an entire box of those mailers (100+) dumped on the floor.
The people in the leasing office are nice and the maintenance guys do what they can but it really seems like complaints fall on deaf ears. The good news: it’s cheaper than a lot of large, professionally-​managed properties in the area and is a short walk to lots of great spots on Henderson. Which will come in handy because you might need a couple drinks to improve your patience and mood due to your living situation.

While shopping for a new apartment for my son and I, we stopped by at the suggestion of our apartment locator service, who had provided us with quotes that met the price range that I wanted to stay in.
Perhaps it is because I have long (ish) hair and earrings, but I felt that I was treated as an undesirable potential tenant by the leasing agent, which is unfortunate because I liked the property.
She kept emphasizing the fact that a television comes free with the apartment (and that I could take it with me when my lease was up). I couldn’t possibly have cared less about a television — iI was looking for a home for my son and I. However, this was something that she pointed out repeatedly as a reason for the higher than expected pricing.
In addition, she repeated question the accuracy of our statement that we had received a price quote at that very location for considerably less cost only a year prior, not to mention a quote from a local apartment locator (which is, admittedly, a dubious source at best).
Although the apartment was slightly out of my preferred price range, it was definitely not out of my affordable range (I am an IT executive), and I would have been more willing to consider this apartment if I felt that it was a welcoming environment. Instead, I was shown a «lounge pool» and a «party pool — for party people». I’m looking for neither. Just a comfortable home for my son and I in a safe environment.
I would consider a friendly, welcoming personality to be paramount to a leasing agent who is representing an apartment complex to potential tenants. I have since signed a lease with another company.
In fairness, the property seemed very nice, and the apartment was nice (although the bedrooms were significantly smaller than most that I viewed in a similar price range)
Good luck on your search, and hopefully, we just caught this agent on a bad day…

Yeah I’d have to agree with most of the people on here. I lived here for three years — I moved in when it was just called The Belmont. Those were the good old days.
The first year was great, with the previous management, UDR. They were SO nice and always went out of their way to help, even after office hours (office hours went much later with UDR too). This girl Karly was so nice to me and always remembered me whenever I came in. Never experienced that kind of customer service again after the Camden takeover.
Parking = NIGHTMARE. It was a daily hassle, and I know other tenants felt the same. I once had my car TOWED from MY OWN LOT. Missed class because of it. There is simply not enough parking for the number of tenants. And I’m sorry but I don’t really feel like parking in the garage that’s a block away if my building lot is full. I should have convenient, secure, COVERED parking that I can walk to with groceries/​luggage/​whatever and feel safe at night.
The last straw for me was the cost of rent. Yes, it’s a good location, but it’s not really in the safest neighborhood (illustrated by the various incidents mentioned here by other reviewers) so the monthly rent for a tiny one-​bedroom apt there seemed LAUGHABLE. And they were about to raise it even more this year, so I said peace out. Found an awesome place — not a complex — right across the freeway with a better location, much more space, convenient secure COVERED parking, and rent cut in HALF.
Sorry Camden Belmont, I wanted to like you and I did at first, but there were just too many issues.
