Applegate Estates

Jason is an amazing manager and is extremely accommodating. The property is very large and feels very safe. It's also in a good part of town and very close to a lot of essentials. If you ever have a problem, Jason will be happy to help! He does a great job and will make you feel right at home.

As a current resident of this complex I can honestly say this place is great, and I really dont have a bad thing to say about it. To be honest, in my apartment search - reading the negative reviews concerned me a bit, but I did my research and ended up renting here anyways... and this is a great little place to live!



Addressing all the negative reviews on here so far:

- This complex is NOT crime galore. Believe me, I have family members in law enforcement and asked them if this place has officers responding alot. The answer? No more than any other neighborhood. Being that this complex is on the bigger side (20 building with 8-10 units each), the occasional police visit to people ratio is really low. I would not live here with my 1 year old if this was not a safe community. On top of that, every applicant goes through a background check before being approved.

- Loud Neighbors? Yeah... I don't know how to respond to that since it's not really a complex issue - it's the issue of you having a rude neighbor. Any complaints of maintenance fixes are addressed right away... or have been for me.



The pros:

- No pet security deposit. This place is pet friendly, and management has no issues with dogs unless you are rude and don't pick up your pets mess. This is the reason most complexs dont allow dogs in the first place...

- Awesome and laid back on site management. The office is open 7 days a week if theres any issues. Maintenance is pretty "johnny-on-the-spot" too.

- Reasonable rent for nice sized apartments.



Cons

- Pet waste from rude pet owners... but what complex doesn't have this issue?

- Parking can sometimes be a pain, especially on weekends or in the winter

- Not alot of grass or "yard" space. Larger complex means theres alot of people living in one subdivision, but the layout of buildings spreads it out pretty alright.



Overall this place is great, friendly and I have never had an issue with it. I am respectful of neighbors, and they are respectful back, I pay my rent on time, and I clean up after my dog. The reviews that were negative seem to stem from monetary, noise, or pet issues. So as long as you know how to be a good tenant - This place will be a great fit for you!

@ DALE YOU BE......Robby I tried very hard to find a solution to your problem. Unfortunately, you both were not open to transfer to a unit that was upstairs. I also transferred people above you and you still complained about people walking too loud. You left us no choice but to give you a non renewal of your lease when you began to threaten the upstairs neighbor and were calling consistently to complain that the tenant was walking too loud. I truly am sorry you had a bad experience, but posting half truth is not very kind especially when someone tries very hard to solve your problem. I seriously do not know how we could have made the problem better for you aside from allowing the unit above you to remain unrented. We continually have 100% occupancy so leaving it vacant was never an option. Due to the occupancy fact it must not be that bad of place to live...either that or 226 tenants holding back their desire to move. Best wishes to you Robby and I hold no ill feelings towards you just sorry you had the bad experience

I love the management here (Jason). He is very friendly and responsive to every request or issue I've ever had. The maintenance guys are also great. They are there to happily fix anything within a day and do the job well. They are also really good about removing snow; i have no idea why anyone complains. They plow even on days it hasnt snowed when there gets to be a lot of slush and build up. (when i live in menomonie and eau claire, we were lucky to have the snow removed by 4pm after a snow storm if it was done the same day at all, and if it snowed 2-3 inches they didnt plow at all so our lots were always a mess!)



you can hear the neighbors easily if they are loud, but i havent had any issues with mine even though they have children. sometimes i feel like im the only one who lives here because i dont see or hear anyone that often. TONS of closet space btw! a lot of apartments skimp on closet space!



i do see the cops around here fairly frequently as there are a few hood rats, but you will have that anywhere you live pretty much. it never seems to really be a huge issue, its not like theyre doing raids and stuff. id rather know that they are around and keeping the place safe than not at all. the only reason i am moving is because my rent is being increased and it is expensive to heat the place in winter and i can find a better rate.



they allow pets and dont rob you of your money so you can have them either. the only issue is there are enough people who do not clean up after their dogs which is extremely disrespectful and is the reason why most apartment complexes don't allow dogs.



overall a pretty quiet place to live and i havent noticed people speeding or it being "dangerous" for your kids to play. the people in my building and across the way have been very friendly also, but i know each building is different.
