For Your Own Sanity Stay Away
Former Tenant
Pros:
cheap, inexpensive, low-priced, (and location but read the cons and it makes all these pros pretty worthless)
Cons:
I don’t even think I’d have enough room to explain how terrible the property managers here were. First it was Archrock Group which halfway through my lease stopped managing the property (probably because they had their hands full with a looming lawsuit from tenants at another nearby apartment building), and then it was Clearstone Group, just as bad and seedy.

Bugs, rats, leaky roofs, lack of cleanliness, stolen mail, theft, lies, bait and switch, no repairs, lack of communication, obscure organization, flooding AND I never got my security deposit back from these crooks (I often think about the amount of money they must make just from keeping people’s security deposits).
Advice to owner:
Just leave this line of work. Stop stealing from the very tenants who keep a roof over your head and food on your table.
