    Ridiculous trash fee $121. When it used to be $10
    Denise R.

    I leased at Avena Jefferson for one year, and unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. The property is fairly new, but it's gone down hill fast due to poor management. There's a major issue with dog waste everywhere, and management does nothing about it. Although the property is supposed to be non-smoking, residents smoke constantly -- including marijuana -- especially after business hours. The pool area becomes chaotic at night with people drinking, making a mess, and even throwing up in trash cans. Parking is another big problem -- there's no guest parking, you pay extra for your car sticker. The EV chargers are outrageously expensive; I was once billed over $400 for charging, even though they were free when we moved in. Inside the apartments, the flat paint gets dirty very quickly, and the carpet looks cheap and worn. The windows are not sealed and you will get ALOT of dirt from outside. The walls are extremely thin, and you can hear everything from your neighbors. They also add unnecessary charges -- a solar account that was never activated, trash fees that went from $10 to $121, and unclear billing practices overall. On move-out, expect excessive charges that make no sense. They also require you to use Jetty, but it doesn't actually cover anything. There's only one cleaning lady for all the units, but she does an amazing job and is always polite. I never once saw pest control during my entire lease. Trash bins are a mess! neighbors down stairs never picked up dog feces and we had crazy amount of flies and mosquitoes. The mailboxes have been broken into multiple times. The only positives were Fernando and the cleaning lady -- both were kind, helpful, and professional. Fernando was great from the day I signed my lease until I moved out. Unfortunately, they're the only good part of Avena Jefferson.

    Living at Avila Apartments in Menifee has been one of the worst rental experiences I've ever had…read more Don't be fooled by the nice exterior or staged model units -- the reality is a completely different story. Management is unresponsive, disorganized, and frankly, rude. Maintenance requests are ignored for weeks (if they're even acknowledged), and when someone finally shows up, the work is usually rushed or incomplete. You're better off fixing things yourself or just living with the problem. Noise is another major issue -- the walls are paper thin. You'll hear every word your neighbors say, every dog bark, and every footstep above you. If you value sleep or privacy, this is not the place for you. The rent is ridiculously high for what you get. They tack on hidden fees and raise the rent with zero justification. And good luck getting your deposit back -- they'll find every excuse to charge you for "damages" that were already there when you moved in. Parking is a nightmare, trash is constantly overflowing, and don't even get me started on the security -- or lack thereof. Packages go missing often, and the gates? Rarely work. In addition they rip you off when moving out with fees that are not legitimate. Save yourself the headache and keep looking. Avila Apartments might look like a luxury complex from the outside, but it's all smoke and mirrors. Living here was a huge regret and the leasing staff is condescending and rude (Chrissy and Crystal).

    We just moved in, in the beginning of the year and since then this property has gone down hill…read more They barely keep up with property maintenance, like trimming bushes or picking weeds. There are weeds that are taller than me and I'm 5'6. Spiders are everywhere from the landscape maintenance not being kept up. The pool area has been closed for months because they want to get us a new deck area?! For freaking what!? So you can close the pool from May until now September. It's summer, we pay close to $3000 to be here and we can't even have the amenities we pay for, especially with school age kids who want to swim during summer!! The park they advertise on property has caution tape around it and from what I've heard from neighbors has been closed for over a year. This place is ridiculous. DO NOT MOVE HERE. They don't even give you a discount with the amenities being closed. These people are dumb and choose to do the pool maintenance during summer, instead of waiting after. They don't care about people living here, just want money and that's it.

    Still dealing with these people. No move out directions. The lack of management and communication…read morewith people that are moving out is horrible. We had to go ask how much our rent is for April on the first since we are being charge 10 extra days. They gave my brother a rent amount on a freakin post it. Not an outline number on what we are paying for. He had to come tell me, mind you I live an hour away now and we split rent. Came back on the 3rd and they gave him a new total! At that time I was not around to give him check. We ran out of time and we had to take it the 4th. But they said they will be charging late fee. How the hell can they do that when they just gave us correct amount on the 3rd? They said "oh renters insurance kicked it" Wouldn't that information be useful to us?? So dumb! Now the day of leaving "oh don't forget your clickers to the gate". I have to drive an hour away for this thing. They couldn't remind me on the 3rd on what to bring. It's just sad how they don't try to help residents. But just willing to charge for everything. The last apartment had a checkout list and even let us know our last move out date. Reminder if we were going to renew or put 30 days. They wanted our businesss. Made us feel good about being there! Complete opposite here!! I can't stress enough. Don't go looking to stay here!

    Worst maintenance team on the god damn planet. Put in a work order to fix my broken washer and this…read moreis how they leave it!???? Thank god I'm moving out!!

    I have just been approve so I cannot say others experiences on living here and others behaviors…read moresuch as neighbors and outside uncontrolled sources. McKayla however deserves a great shout out. I have been anything but easy through out our process from cabinet colors I wanted to lay outs and "natural lighting" silly little details that were important to me but silly little details that were not missed. Even days later three visits with my own indecisiveness she still remembered what I wanted. That alone shows the attention to detail they show. Managements and complaints I see on reviews are out of these girls controls. However they are 100% doing their job as I spent time with both gals. If you want people who pay attention to your needs upon looking for a home this is it. You can't control outside noise. Can't wait to move in

We have 3 dogs and the complex only allows 2. However, all are emotional support animals and appropriate documentation was provided. We still haven't received pet approval and had to obtain housing from another company because our move date was only a few days away. They are now saying our deposit is non-refundable even though we were never fully approved. Great way to treat someone with a disability. We dodged a bullet by not moving in here. BEWARE

The appliances are of good quality and repairs are made promptly, often on the same day. I doubt I ever waited more than 2-3 days for a repair, and the maintenance team does an excellent job every time. The grounds are kept clean. The landscapers keep the grounds beautiful. It's very quiet. I only needed to make one noise complaint during all those years. The security patrol showed up promptly and took care of it. In the few times we needed to report any kind of rule breaking or disturbance by a neighbor, the office staff was totally responsive. Unlike many other complexes, they never made us feel like we were a nuisance. Instead, they were grateful that we were looking out to help maintain the quality of life in the community. They're on top of everything and always take care of whatever issues come up. They have 2 nice pools and a decently stocked gym. Plenty of guest parking. The office staff always has a friendly greeting and is extremely helpful and efficient. They go above and beyond. If you're in the market for an apartment in Temecula, you won't do better than to get one here! I wish I still lived there but had to relocate for work.

It was really quiet, always a ton of parking, staff was also super friendly, anytime I needed help with anything in my apartment they were always on top of it.

If you're looking for a place to live highly highly consider here. You'll love it!

It feels wonderfully familiar in the best way, with great technology upgrades and thoughtful improvements since I first lived here when the community originally opened. The entire move-in process has been smooth and stress-free. The community is relaxed, clean, and well-maintained, and the neighbors are friendly and considerate especially the dog owners/etiquette. Most importantly, there's a real sense of peace of mind living here. A big shout-out to Athena and Katelyn, who were both wonderful on many occasions throughout the process. Their kindness, responsiveness, and professionalism truly made the experience even better. Highly recommend calling OSR your next home!

I kind of feel like I'm getting singled out here sometimes like no feeding birds and at one time no plants by the garages, that wasn't easy to be able to get that luxury here my neighbor had to complain to get plants by the garages, I personally get kind of afraid to go out to the tables at night or in general bc one time I walked over there I got held out to knife point once there with a friend and there was a mess there one time and some lady got really mad at me saying I did it and she worked here at the time I was scared I was going to get framed, she was really mean idk she was kinda going off, well I haven't seen that lady in a long time so that made that, well just don't grow plants
