Emerald Vista Apartments

"The office manager of this complex is extremely rude, disrespectful and unprofessional. Complex is old and outdated. Extremely expensive and many of the appliances don’t work. If I knew the current manager would be here when I moved in, I would have never moved in. The manager before was so much better, kinder and professional."

"The management has no urgency or knowledge on resolving our issue. We have been living in these apartments for over 4 years and never had a problem before. Now we have issues with our apartment smelling like weed. I have no issue with weed smokers but I do when my apartment smells like it. This issue started when our new neighbors moved in. And Also when we got a new manager. Our building is non smoking building and from our understanding our new neighbors were moved from another unit in our apartments because of similar issues. Why in the world would you move a tenant who is known for smoking weed to a non smoking building? I have documentation of our numerous complaints and our concerns are never met with a solution. We get no valid response back from management. We are told that our claims are not valid unless they can witness the smoke first hand. Well Shaun (manager) come on over and smell my house. The worst part is that I have kids. I want all to know that this apartment management will accept anyone with any problems, so weed smokers, thieves, and or criminals come on and apply for your new apartment. They will accept you. For all the people who are looking for a good place to live stay far away. Hopefully management gets word of my review and solves my issue once and for all but I ain’t holding my breath. Oh and I forgot to mention our manager is more concerned with kids playing outside and bikes and brooms on our patios than stopping real problems."

"Update: 3/21/17: I have lived here 4 years now and we continue to have good neighbors, and very little noise. The gated complex continues to be safe and secure, in 4 years the only crime I am aware of was the mailboxes were broken in to, the management was on top of informing the complex and repaired it immediately. The thieves were caught and were not tenants here. The review by DS is at least 3 years old and none of it is true at the current time. We have really good management and staff, that are consistently available if needed. There was a rent increase for everyone that was extreme last year, but they remain very competitive in pricing, in Elk Grove and the Sacramento area. It is also conveniently located to all your needs, most are within a block and can be walked to easily. I would highly recommend Emerald Vista, if you are looking for an apartment that is a nice, clean place to live."

"My husband and I had been on the waiting list for these apartments and we had been glad to move in last June..the place was clean and the staff was friendly. I was very happily surprised. The office manager is very nice and full of community pride, she really seems to put her love and care into making this a great place to live. It's a lovely property well taken care of and glad to call this place my home."

"Emerald Vista Apartment is a tenement apartment with very low income and IQ people, terrible management and vandals. Young kids run wild at night and tires have been slashed because someone spoke to one of the hoodlum kids who didn't like him. The manager lets families with more than 2 kids live in a 2 bedroom apartment, the largest, so you have more people and children living there then would be expected for the number of units. Also. feral cats have been encouraged and some residents feed them. Management does do anything about it. You will have cats in heat wailing outside your windows in the spring and kittens hidden in the bushes. If you have a pet that you will pay a deposit for, it will get flees due to the feral cats. This is a horrible apartment complex. Don't move here just because it is cheap. It really isn't if your tires are slashed."
