    Where do I begin with this place?!?!…read more We were promised a lease through August 30th 2015 since my boyfriend planned on leaving the military when his contract was over on August 27th. Andy Carson told us at the time of signing the contract that we would be able to do this (instead of leaving July 27th, 2015) when they sent out the emails to re-sign leases in January 2015. I told his secretary in the email in January 2015 that we would like to stay until at least July 31st. She said this was fine and offered to give us more time, hence when I said we should do August 30th to be safe. I was told this would not be an issue. In March of 2015, I was called by John Carson's secretary and asked if we were re-newing our lease, I explained to her that we had figured this out in January. She said they had no paperwork or verification of this and I offered to show them the emails. She declined my offer and said that John Carson would need to speak with me about the issue. She even confirmed that there were other tenants here who were promised by Andy Carson's secretary that they could stay longer than what was on the lease through email. But that didn't matter, obviously. I told her that was fine. TWO WEEKS LATER AFTER CALLING EVERY DAY, he finally returned my call and pretty much said we were out of luck and HAD to be out on the day his contract ended with the military (August 27th) and refused to honor his OWN BROTHER'S promise to me. I did not push the issue further knowing that there was no point. Well today... My boyfriend was outside cleaning his car when he was approached by a woman that asked him to stop and go elsewhere. Not knowing who the woman was, he said he would be more than happy to speak with the landlord about the issue if she had a problem with it. We have seen this woman numerous times and she has seen us while walking her dog. She herself has broken rules at this place by walking her dog without a leash (which is a violation of an email notice and change to the lease rules that was sent out in December and January of 2014-15). Turns out, she was an employee of Carson Property Management that also resides within the building. I understand that his car appeared to be "smoking" and is loud since he has a turbo in it and that CAN be disruptive. I have no issue with her thinking this was an issue. However, 2 hours later my boyfriend received a call from the MP's on Fort Riley and also the Riley County Police Department to go downstairs. After speaking with the officer, he was told that we would most likely be evicted and that was that. He even told the officer he has lived here for a year and a half. Shortly after, I received an email from ANDY Carson even though apparently he does not run this building anymore and JOHN Carson does stating that my fiance (whom I marry in one week; thanks for the ADDED stress) needed to be out BY TOMORROW because he is not on the lease. The day we picked up the keys, I was unable to attend because I was working and asked Andy Carson if my boyfriend could please pick up the keys for me and check the apartment for pre-move in damages for paperwork since he will reside here as well. He said that this was FINE. My fiance (and legally common law husband who is re-enlisted and currently active in the military) is not on the lease because we were not married at the time and had not lived in this residence together yet and he still technically had a barracks room. Now, we are supposed to be moving into a new home on July 21st (three days) and Andy Carson refuses to let him stay. His reasoning? Because he was RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL to the woman. Who he was not aware was an employee and who APPROACHED him out of nowhere instead of contacting HER BOSS AND THE LANDOWNER to approach us and discuss the matter with us. This is an absolutely horrible place to live and I am now contacting the RCPD and upper levels on base to make sure that this place is blacklisted to military. I have also had discussions with other tenants who claim that they have been screwed over as well. For example, not getting security deposits back for more than 30 days which is not only a violation of their OWN contract but I believe is against the law. Please find somewhere else to live. ESPECIALLY if you are military.

    This place is a joke! For the most part living in these apartments are quality, but if you expect…read morethings to get done at your apartment within a month NO. We moved into a friends place when he moved back home and found out John charged the family well over 3/4 of their deposit and beings we moved in other that the floors being cleaned nothing was done. Fast forward to when we moved out John made a hilarious comment about my friends family being mad about his charges and made the comment that even if he does not do the work he as to right to take your money. So he will absolutely charge you and pocket it. It has been over a month since we moved out and still waiting on our deposit to be returned. We called and got another John Carson special excuse on why nothing is ever his fault. My wife and I currently are going to bring clams on him with the better business and Manhattan Kansas about how he does business. If you want to live in a place this is not the worst just be ready to never get anything done for a month minimum, and if your check in - out list is perfect so he can't jack you around everything will be fine.

    We have lived in our home for over four yrs. Lisa and Dan Knight are AMAZING and always make sure…read morewe are taken care of. When times get tough she is very understanding. Also the fact that they are Pet Friendly is Fantastic. Our home is pricedright for Rent compared to other home that are identical but double the price they other agencies. I would recommend anyone military, civilian, collage etc to rent from her. They are wonderful people and buisness owners.

    They were nice when we were looking at the house, but after we signed the lease they seemed to not…read morecare at all. The house itself is ok, although it was very dirty when we moved in. When we told Knight, their reply was, "It was clean 2 weeks ago." We also got a notice from the city about the yard condition one week after we moved in. When I went to pick up keys and the garage remotes, the lady only gave me one garage remote. I asked if there was a second one and she said, "No, our houses usually only come with one." When I got home, it turns out my roommate had gone in earlier to pick up her set of keys and garage remote. Thanks for lying to my face, lady! They also leave messages calling us by the wrong names. One day the maintenance guy showed up at our house randomly -- we were all very confused as to why he was there and it was because it was something we had requested 3 months previous! And he left without doing anything. They also cannot take rent online, which is inconvenient.

    Thank you for your reply. To clarify for others reading:…read moreYes, I gave the required 90-day notice, and we agreed on a formal termination date of May 1, 2025. My concern is not about the timeline--it's about being charged a management fee in May despite no management services being performed. What's most disappointing is the complete lack of communication and empathy. I sent multiple emails and a formal letter--none of which were acknowledged. This reply only came after I posted reviews publicly. That response, paired with your refusal to even consider refunding a small final fee of just a few hundred dollars, is incredibly telling. After more than five years working together, a thoughtful business would have valued the relationship and simply honored a reasonable request. Instead, this rigid approach--defending a weak contractual position over a minor amount--demonstrates a short-sighted business strategy that undervalues long-term partnerships and human decency. For future clients, I still recommend reading the agreement carefully, especially around fees tied to maintenance and contract wind-down. Fee-stacking and defensiveness like this are not the hallmarks of a company I could recommend again.

    I moved to Manhattan, KS back in December 2020. I was looking to a renting a small apartment and I…read morefound a 2 bedroom apartment with Alliance MHK. I set up an appointment to see the property and eventually decided id take the place. I finally go pick up the keys at their office and I show up to my new apartment and I open the door. The first thing I notice was that there was a foul stench. I start looking around and what do you know? I find a DEAD CAT inside the apartment! The guy had told me that they had cleaned up the place and had it all professionally prepped up for me to move in. I call Alliance about it and they thought I was making this up. I sent them pictures and Ill post them here so you can see them. This isnt even the worst of it. The place had a bad case of mold or something because I developed trouble breathing when I lived here. Not to mention that power went out frequently in the summer, they also kept the majority of my deposit when I moved out under pretenses that there was damage to the place that occurred under my tenure. Which I took pictures and submitted on their app before I moved in. I told them this was already pre-existing damage in which they denied and refused to give me back my deposit. Do not rent from Alliance MHK.

Personal is extremely rude and unprofessional. They either ignore you or they are not helpful at all. Paper work for the rent was designed poorly. They filled our documents without OUR SIGNATURE !! The company refuses to give back a deposit, even though all of their demands were satisfied. The company accused us of leaving damage that was created before move in. If there was an option, I would give them zero stars. Awful landlords.....

    I have to echo the other posted review. I rented a condo in Blue Earth Place for 6 months. For the…read morefirst 4 months everything was fine but it went rapidly downhill. First, they claimed not to know when the liquor store and Radina's (downstairs) took away more than half of our parking. Further, they did nothing to go to bat for us by getting us permits to use the parking. Then, construction began immediately below me. They claimed not to know that they had rented the unit and a build-out was beginning. It was impossible for me to live there and I moved out early. I turned the apartment over to them 3 weeks early. Now they claim that I am still responsible for everything until the end of the 3 weeks but they told me nothing about this. I cannot recommend these people in any way. I suggest you look elsewhere for property to rent.
