Cactus Forty-2 4242 East Cactus Road, Phoenix, AZ 85032

"Imani was my tour guide around the property and I absolutely loved my experience with her. She was super knowledgeable and super exciting to tour with. If the management team is as awesome as her I think this could be a solid location for my next move."

"This place is good, not great. The apartments are very nice, the amenities are ok, but nothing special. My main complaint would simply be that it is not kept clean. There is constantly dog feces littered all around the complex, including sometimes in stairways, and I have seen people let their dogs pee in the hallways and not clean it. While it is the owner’s responsibility to clean up after their pet, if management does not take any measures to enforce this, then they need to clean it. I have seen waste left for days at a time, which is definitely a health hazard as well as just gross. I will say the leasing office is decent about addressing resident concerns, and there is one leasing agent in particular who is a literal angel. I’m not sure if she still works there, but Tia Price was absolutely wonderful to me any time I needed anything. I found myself in a bad roommate situation while living here, and Tia went out of her way to address the situation and accommodate me any way she could. She is a wonderful human, I cannot say enough nice things about her. I honestly might have stayed here but the apartments are out of my budget. It’s very pet-friendly, I rarely had pests or any maitenence issues, overall a decent place to live, just could be a little cleaner and it is slightly overpriced in my opinion."

"Cactus Forty-2 is a very nice apartment complex and it’s very close to a lot of stores and restaurants. I love the location and the units and pool area are very nice. Cactus Forty-2 also has 2 elevators for those of you who don’t like to climb stairs to your upper apartment. The leasing office staff is very friendly and helpful too. I was shown the property by leasing consultant Raymond Lopez and he answered all my questions and concerns and he was extremely helpful when I signed up for my apartment. He explained everything very clearly and made sure all my questions were answered. He also helped me pick out a nice unit with a good location. I highly recommend Cactus Forty-2."

"I would not recommend renting here. The complex switched property management companies in the middle of my lease and much was lost in translation. I struggled to even get an electronic copy of my lease at first from the new company (Mark Taylor) because a leasing agent said they “don’t have access to it.” The old company (Olympus) stated that “many e-files do not get transferred over” and our Notice to Vacate was not handed over. I now am stuck paying almost 2 months extra of rent even though I’m moving states for work. I tried calling multiple days and times and was never able to speak directly with the new community manager. We tried going to the office many times throughout the day and it was always closed. To her credit, the agent with Mark Taylor tried to help us over the phone but we kept getting different information from different people. Seems like there is a big lack of communication on their team, though I try to give benefit of the doubt. Our apartment space is fine. The pool is nice, though it’s been closed a lot recently. There was no trash pick up for a long time and all the dumpsters overflowed, though that is now fixed. There is a strong dog urine smell outside my balcony pretty consistently. There are better places in the area that you would be better off at."

"I love living at Cactus Forty-2. My apartment is beautiful and modern. The property is very well-maintained. All of the staff are super friendly and accommodating. The maintenance guys are very friendly and helpful. Any maintenance requests that I submit, are always done efficiently and quick. I definitely recommend this to anyone that is looking for a great place to call home!"
