Vista 99 Apartments

"Crime is rampant here. It got so bad they raised rent $400 a month to pay for cameras that are supposedly watched by people. My bike was stolen with the locks cut and nothing happened. I asked for a video of the recording to give to the police and they stonewalled me for weeks before finally saying they reviewed the footage and didn't see anything. They also would not provide the videos. The elevator and door to my building was broken for months. This normally would have been fine but I was in crutches for a few of those weeks. And with how high they raise rent it should not have been an issue that took months to resolve. The garage gates regularly break down. If you're still considering living here ask the leasing office about how many home invasions that have every month (hint it's more than you can count on with one hand). I would have moved out already if I could break my lease. As soon as it is over I'm out. Also the office runs a program where potential new renters can talk to current residents. The current residents are encouraged to not bring any of the problems up because they get money if they talk to someone and that person ends up signing a lease."

"The maintenance team here at Vista 99 -- Jonathan, Armando, and Jaime in particular -- consistently deliver outstanding service. They are quick to respond, efficient in execution, and have always been pro-active and helpful during my stay Vista 99."

"I normally don’t post reviews but I lived here for a year and I would strongly recommend that you don’t choose this place. Safety is a major day-to-day issue in this community. There are constant, non-stop, break-ins pretty much every other week. Consider half of your packages stolen either from your door or the package room. The management is completely lenient and won’t accept any responsibility whatsoever. People there somehow manage to have no consideration for others at the community. You would constantly hear people being loud at earliest times of the morning with their parties or being intoxicated within the common areas late at night. Please don’t get me started with the smell. They have a trash pickup service but neighbors do not put their trash out at designated times and leave it at their doors for sometimes an entire day before the trash pickup and therefore the hallways always smell. Your deposit will with almost 100% certainty not be returned to you. They charge you the professional cleaning service regardless of you cleaning or not cleaning your apartment. They jack up the rent for their current residence by more than $200-300 every year. My renewal offer was for $250 more (while rents were down in the area). When I decided to move, they reduced it but I still didn’t accepted. The same apartment that I was in, was on the market for about $400 less than what they offered me when I checked their website a couple of weeks after I left. They know moving is hard and many people don’t want to do it so they jack up the price for their current residents. Stay out for your peace of mind. There much better communities around at better rates."

"Sigh. Where do I start? My identity was stolen last year when someone stole the mailroom MASTER KEY and I didn't get an official notice of the breaking until three weeks after the event happened. The apartments are wonderful, but security is severely lacking. What's even more frustrating is management's lack of care when the residents bring up these issues. Last night someone had video evidence of a perpetrator jumping the gates and going through people's balconies. Vista management said "there's not much we can do, we can't file a police report". It seems like every week we are dealing with more and more issues :( I will not be renewing my lease."

"Pros: Reasonable rent prices and usually clean. Cons: There’s always some property crime incident here. Packages go missing. Bikes and cars get stolen out of the garage. Gates are always broken and take forever to get repaired. So far have not been able to access many doors to the building because the system is down. Security is an absolute joke. Call boxes don’t work. Equity app is terrible."
