I had a vision of what I wanted and she was able to provide just what I love. The carpet installers, Matthew & Jason were GREAT! They ended up doing so much for me as I've collected so many treasures over the years and I myself am unable to lift like I could 10 years ago. Not a single sigh came from their mouth as they did more than they should have. Thank you so much Matthew and Jason. I will be requesting their services in future flooring projects. I'm loving my new carpet and my feet thank you too! Karen Hunt

Lived there for 2 years. Here's my list of everything that caused me problems they either refused…read moreto fix or were in need of replacements: 1) microwave stopped working and they refused to replace it 2) if you like your apartment to be the temp you set the thermostat to; never move into this place, i would set the temp to 65° and it would easily be 81-82°in my room and 75-80° in the living room 3) the second bedroom is a sad excuse for a "room" and ALL the heating and cooling goes there, so the rest of the apartment was always boiling while only one of the rooms felt subzero. 4) pet rent (self explanatory exploitation) 5) got charged $800 for "excessive decorations" at the end of my lease for a paint job AFTER an $800 DEPOSIT. 6) neighbors complained about noise at 6pm on a Wednesday and the landlords gave us a referral. (we were operating WITHIN Ames noise ordinance laws.) 7) hallways ALWAYS reek. 8) tenants came forward about their bikes being stolen 9) my roommate and many other tenant's cars were broken into and they refused to adequately deploy resources to make the complex safer. 10) the keypad on the door stops working when it's below freezing or above 95° most of the time. That's so fun when you're freezing or boiling while holding heavy groceries and trying to get into your overpriced apartment!!! 11) told me if we moved out early we would receive discounted rent 11 continued) LIED 12) neighbors throw parties constantly 13) pieces of the counter and trim fell off with 0 resistance 14) the kitchen sink leaks and mold is growing in the cabinets because the plumbing is terrible 15) Wi-Fi is slow and frequently crashes while trying to do something as simple as classwork 16) there was a MASSIVE hole from the shower head where mold was growing that maintenance refused to acknowledge or fix. 17) they constantly send out texts that they're doing pest control because it's impossible to keep the mice, rats, cockroaches, centipedes, and bugs out of the complexes. 18) HUGE hornets nests everywhere 19) landscaping is LOUD and EARLY (around 4-6am) and so is trash day.

Although the location may not be on campus, it is right next to Jack Trice making for some good times in the fall. The management team has come a long way since when I first got here and currently the management team is really helpful and puts the residents first. This fall will be my 3rd year living here and I recommend it to everyone looking for an apartment.

I am truly grateful to David and Ann Whitaker and the marketing team! Selling the family farm was…read moretruly a difficult and emotional time. From the very first phone call, I knew we picked the right team. David spent so much time talking with us, explaining the whole process of auction, how land value is determined and so much more. He truly put our minds at ease. Both he and Ann were always in contact with us during all phases of the process. If we had questions they were always willing and available to answer. The auction itself was handled wonderfully, reaching a very good sell price. Everything thereafter flowed seamlessly, escrow, closing etc. I highly recommend the Whitaker Marketing Group!

Amy is GREAT! You can tell that she does this job out of pure love for animals. She is just so…read morecaring and willing to do whatever it takes to take care of your fur babies while you are away. First off, she will come to your house before she takes care of your pets and completely explain her services. She wants to meet your pet and make sure he or she is comfortable with her first. She is licensed and bonded and has high standards for her employees. She doesn't just come and feed your pet and then take off. She spends at least 20 minutes at your house making sure they have human interaction, not just a meal. She takes care of animals that have special needs and are on medications. She does house sitting as well, watering plants, putting trash can on curb, getting mail, etc. I was so grateful to have her for my older cat Boris. He was refusing to eat, which is very dangerous for cats. I had to leave and was nervous for him, as he was pretty sick. Amy took the necessary time needed to coax Boris and get him to eat some food every day. I was so happy to have her. I even had surgery one time and needed someone to take care of my cats while I was incapacitated inside the house. Her then-employee Jill came every day and still spent the 20 minutes with the cats. It was great because I was stuck in my recliner all day and couldn't play with them. Her rates are more than reasonable for someone who gives this level of service. If you get stuck in a snowstorm at the airport or something, you just give her a call and tell her you won't be home on time and she will gladly extend the length of service. When you get back, even if it is on time, she asks that you give her a call saying so, so she can be sure your pets are safe. She cares for your animals as if they were her own. I honestly cannot say enough great things about Amy. It might sound over the top, but when I move away from Ames, I am really going to be feeling the loss of such a trusted caretaker of my animals.

I lived in one of the studio apartments in 2015 and really liked it. It's all hardwood flooring so…read morethere's no carpet to worry about. For a studio with storefront windows and door, the heat was really good in the wintertime. It comes with a dishwasher and stacked washer/dryer in the bathroom as well. Maintenance was quick and attentive to any needs we had (the ceilings were lofted, so we needed help changing lights.) The office staff was always so kind, I can't remember the property manager's name, but she was always on the ball. I guess my only complaint would be their landscaping crew, they were a bit reckless, my doormat was ran over a couple times by the lawn mower which was a little startling. I would recommend Haverkamp properties.
