The Boulevard

"Lovely apartment complex with great management. Only qualm is the darn speed bumps…if I go slow it should not be so painful to me or my car otherwise they are just torture devices."

"I had such a wonderful experience visiting the Blvd. the staff was incredible nice and flexible. I toured the whole place with my kids and loved the property. They are very helpful explaining the details and based on how expensive rent is now a days, found the prices manageable. The common spaces are clean and quiet. I hope I can manage to get things together soon so I can move in. I’d love to live here."

"Neighborly Ventures builds and manages many newly built places. They are fast growing, and appear to be professional at face value. I caution you to know, companies that grow quickly in this fashion only care about the dollars earned. Their employee training is terrible as evidenced by their employee actions of ill education about job duties and are often illegal, and they conduct themselves in ways tenants are bound by contract not to. The amenities seemed great at first but withered over time, or were just first impression hook and sinkers. The place is clean and appears to be a place desired. The management in the office is ill trained and unfamiliar with tenant laws when things don't go as planned. One person is extremely difficult to coordinate through, and attempted to strong arm us illegally on more than one occasion. They initially allowed trailers, and used us as a vendor to remove and haul unwanted appliances. This changed and we were given a time limit to remove the trailer while we observed 4 other trailers continue to park on the property, nightly and for weeks. When it was reported, we were told that one employee lives on sight and will treat all tenants fairly. When we complained again we were asked to provide pictures and license plates as if we are now on the payroll, or accused of lying when the on-site employee just never walks the grounds to see with their own eyes. They continued to leave their appliances next to where we were originally approved to park the trailer for us to haul off, which would sit for days but tenants are specifically not allowed to place objects outside of the dumpster or the area. The maintenance crew is professional and for the most part they stay very busy. But I was discouraged by observations towards the end of tenancy. Bird excretement sat for a few months on the front porch of a neighbor, and continued to be a large pile for weeks after maintenance turned the unit. The property was not prepped before the recent ice storm, no shoveling was done after, and after several days they placed gobs of deicer over the 2 inches of ice accumulation. Which everyone knows is ineffective. Overuse sat, and after the ice melted naturally several days later, the piles of deicer continued to eat chunks of concrete out of the sidewalk from not being cleaned up and due to overuse that was not applied correctly in the first place. After a 3 day weekend, maintenance was observed doing screeches in the golf cart and playing on the ice, picking thru recycling for cans that tenants are discouraged from doing so and threatened violations for, and the dog waste stations were left overflowing and not tended to for another 2 days. Most normal weekends these waste stations are full, so to go 5 days is impossible. My significant other was a victim of hate speech in the form of graffiti and while management responded to my initial report, they never did reach out to my significant in response. Rather, they sent an email out to all tenants to say it wont be tolerated...I never saw any email and was a current tenant. What I did ovserve was more signs hung by dumpsters that claim camera use, discourage trespassing and going thru dumpsters. The signs placed on our dumpster that was visible from our apartment were bigger and more colorful than the other 4 dumpsters on the entire property. The place is HIGHWAY ROBBERY with the rent prices...and definitely not worth it with the treatment you will endure. New is not always nice."

"Some windows are crooked walls are thin, You can hear everything from other apartments. Outlets near the sink are not CFCI as It's required by building codes. you are supposed to have search protecting outlets next to water sources at list up to 6 ft. Drafty during the winter. Appliances are cheap. Maintenance is good. People in the office are okay but tend to yes you a lot and give excuses instead of taking responsibility. Air conditioner BTU output is not proper size for apartment Coverage. It used to be a place 3 years ago about community now it's all about money. Plus they have ridiculous dress restrictions at the pool. They're more about how things look. They will also accuse you of things Just on hearsay."

"Friendly, professional, a great team who respond quickly and effectively to tenant needs & concerns. All the amenities make @blvd a very nice home. My residence beg Spring 2020 and I've enjoyed beautiful surroundings (Horses lazily grazing nearby.) with Oregon's beautiful forests. Thank you, thank you for a memorable experience!"
