Post Spring

Don’t waste your time. The community is beautiful and the size of the apartments are wonderful, however, it’s unnecessarily expensive. Just received my rent renewal and they have gone up $ 100 plus the water fee, community fees, etc. It’s ridiculous as if they want to price their tenants out. Not to mention the appliances are very old but they will issue you new, updated appliances but only if you pay $ 50 per month for them. Also, the amount of burglaries and car break-​ins are just too much for what you pay to live here.

Lived here for a year and was ready to move out when it came time. During my time here my parked truck was hit by another car in the middle of the night. Speed limit signs are either microscopic or nonexistent in this neighborhood. Oh and no sidewalks. So your life is on the line when walking throughout the neighborhood. The front office actually decided to install speed bumps throughout the neighborhood after other cars started getting hit as well. Another more serious issue was with my girlfriend dealing with a Peeping Tom. Yea, that actually happened. The front office wasn’t too concerned about it though. Luckily we didn’t discover this until about a month left on our lease. So who knows how long this guy had been watching her (or us). My apartment was situated on the terrace level and was lucky enough to have a family above me who had a child and the people above them had several children who ran rampant throughout the apartment. That went on for the entire year. That same family would allow their children to throw trash over the rails so I had new presents outside my porch every day, which was nice. Oh and the move in/​move out process is insane. Don’t be surprised if they ask for a blood sample (kidding, but seriously) to let you rent there. But then again you don’t want to rent there. Moving out is equally as bad. They take deposit on deposit from you at the beginning then send you a bill after you’ve moved out asking for more money. I kept my apartment pristine. I’m sure I have plenty more instances where I had been disappointed with this place but I’m just glad I don’t live there anymore. There is one bright shining light working the front office who is probably the only hope of turning this place around and her name is Sarah. If she can help you she will. Otherwise the Post Properties company is ran by emotionless cyborgs. If you’re looking for a place to stay do yourself a favor and don’t come here.

I’ve lived here for about 6 months
Pros: Quiet, Decent Gym, Safe, Plenty of parking (more on that later)
Cons: Outdated apartments, ugly WHITE interiors (for the amount I’m paying in rent you guys could have splurged for beige), The «international travelers» are generally respectful but post needs to do a better job enforcing trash policies. They all seem to believe that there is a valet trash service and leave bags out in the breezeways. Speaking of breezeways, they desperately need to be cleaned (I’ll attach a photo). There’s also a pretty bad pest problem.
There is one «issue» that is absolutely driving me crazy though. Why on earth would you put a parking spot right in front of the stairs going into each building? My first thought was «how the hell am I going to move a mattress and dresser in between these two cars?» and now every single time I have a handful of groceries, a baby carrier, etc. I have to squeeze between cars and try not to scratch anyone’s paint. This is a super easy fix, there is plenty of parking already so if you just block those spaces off I will change my review to 4 – 5 stars (depending on if you finally clean my breezeway)
Overall, I’ve been happy with my stay here. Not blown away by any means, but as far as apartment life goes, this is a pretty safe bet.

ZERO STARS…
Unfortunately, things at this property have gone downhill as the rent has increased from year to year. I’ve lived here for three years and I will not be renewing my lease nor recommend this property to anyone for the following reasons:
PROPERTY: Post Properties is well known for having overall high levels of standards with regard to their interior/​exterior apartment complexes, landscaping, amenities, etc. They are also well known for significantly increasing the rent every year, regardless of local competitor rates or a national recession.
COMMUNITY: This community is overrun by «international travelers» (as our leasing office likes to call them). These residents store their trash/​garbage on the balcony until they decide to throw it away. A lot of the residents hand-​wash their clothes and then line-​dry them out of their balcony (over the railing)… giving it that 3^rd world feeling. I had to call the leasing office twice about one tenant leaving their mattress on the balcony for over a week. They litter all the community picnic/​grilling areas and throw their trash down the side of the buildings or path walks. There is an overwhelming smell of curry coming from the apartments — it leaves a lingering odor in the hallways, parking lots, fitness center, etc. THERE IS A HUGE ISSUE WITH PEST CONTROL! There is a company (that, for their sake, I will not name) that only specializes in bed bug extermination that has to come out to our property several times a week. The leasing agreement clearly states standards of living, cleanliness, etc. The property management’s failure to enforce tenants to uphold *basic* standards of living has dramatically decreased my quality of living here.
APARTMENT: The appliances are outdated when compared to their competitors and the windows are not secure (they pop out when opening and closing).
