Harbor Pointe Apts

This is THE WORST apt complex to live in. DO NOT, under any circumstances, move here! I just moved in and am finding all the horrible hints wrong with it. First of all– I enjoy quiet and the wall are so paper thin, that I can hear my neighbors talking upstairs. And if they’re yelling– forget it. They stomp around everywhere all of the time. They smoke in their apt and it comes through my vents. The management says there is nothing they can do about it. Bullshit. I am a non smoker for 4 yrs now and that retched smell is a huge reason why I stopped. Neighbors blast music, completely inconsiderate that they DO NOT LIVE IN A HOUSE, THEY LIVE IN AN APT. There was a water leak in my bathroom ceiling which came through my vent. I called management and no one ever came. Now my bathroom fan doesn’t work. I never received a call back or an update. The outside of this place is made of wood and is rotting away with mold everywhere and the paint is chipping off. Why do I live here then, you asked? Because I’m stuck here until my lease is over, that’s why. Keep looking, I’m telling you!!!

Zero stars … That’s all that can really be said beside maybe go find a tent and live in it it is nicer and probably less breezy this whole place just sucks!!!

This place is garbage, my toilet broke and the management team just «aired out» my carpets and refused to give me any information about contacting the corporate office. I even mentioned how my home now
Smells like mildew (from the wet carpets) and they refuse to replace carpets, and i live on the top floor, the tenants below me got offered to stay 3 nights at the Red Roof Inn for their expensive troubles. Save your money and try elsewhere.

Overall the maintenance crew and staff are great and they try really hard to fix the «fixable» problems. But, unfortunately, there are many structural issues that need to be addressed. These apartment building are very old, pre-​Hugo with the original wood siding. They have deteriorated to the point that the entire exterior of the complex needs to renovated and replaced with new wood siding or even better, hardy plank. Specifically, the existing wood siding has deteriorated to the point that black mold and mildew are present in many units caused by ongoing water damage from rotting wood.
As far as the community goes, everyone living here is extremely friendly. Just a great bunch of neighbors. If the owners of this complex would replace all the water logged and damaged wood siding, repair all cracked slabs, install gutters and fix all the pot holes in the rode it could be a wonderful place to live.

Don’t be fooled by the location. Yes it is convenient, however the apartments themselves are falling apart and management is doing nothing about it. They will try to charge you for damages that you did not cause. They charged us a cleaning fee upfront prior to moving in, and I should have known the place was a sham when there were nails everywhere and a crayon painted to the carpet. I do not even want to know how much mold is growing in the walls seeing as every time we put in a work order for water spots, all they did was spray «bac-​out» and the mold returned weeks later. Let’s not forget the mushrooms that grew from the carpet due to a hot water leak they left sitting for days after multiple work orders.

It was a few years ago but the maintenance guy told me that he was still replacing windows that were damage after Hugo (1989) and this was in 2010! We also had a toilet leak at the base of the toilet and was told it was just how old toilets are. This leak was not from the clean water tank, it was from the base of the bowl! It accumulated in the middle of the living room and would slush when walked on! We also went without water on several occasions a few times for an entire weekend! They didn’t even offer bottled water to the residents! After contacting Mt. Pleasant Waterworks they told me the problem was on Harbor Pointes end and they would have to fix it! It’s a true slum building in my opinion and it’s a shame because the location is great. I talked to many residents while I lived there and the complaints were everywhere.
