Southfield Apartments

The only good thing about this apartment complex is that they're affordable. Although most of them are now "renovated" (new carpet, door, a fresh coat of paint), they're still old and has numerous issues. During the winter months, expect your electric bill to be uncontrollable high due to the fact that the walls are not properly insulated. Garbage collection is another prominent issue, which also contributes to an abundance of flies during the summer months. The walls in the apartment that I had was infested with insects and when I notified management of the issue; it was pretty much swept under the rug. The complex doesn't have a receptionist, thus making it almost impossible to report your complaints. The best time to have your issues heard is on the first of the month, when rent is due. Also, please make sure that you take pictures and make a video of the original condition of the apartment. If not, they'll deduct fees from your security deposit to cover miscellaneous tasks that they should take care of. The most popular one is carpet cleaning, regardless of whether or not you cleaned it thoroughly before leaving. Management can be a bit rude at times, they answer the phone if you continuously call and are usually reluctant to return your calls (regardless of if you left a voice message). If I were you, i would take my business elsewhere, perhaps to a company that appreciates your business!
