    They have 2 floor plans and 2 different styles. Meaning one floor plan is more upgraded with the…read moreother. Naturally I fell in love with the more upgraded apartment. I didn't have an appointment, and walked in with someone that did. He was nice enough to let me tour with him and his daughter, so the Leasing agent didnt have to do separate tours AND I wouldn't have to wait. I forget the name, but the biggest upgraded 1 bedroom, but it was the one I liked mostly. mostly.

    Beautiful property, but READ EVERY WORD BEFORE SIGNING ANYTHING…read more The property itself is gorgeous, and my tour guide paid attention to details about my lifestyle when showing me units, which, that part was genuinely great. But unfortunately, I got badly burned on the application/holding fees, and I've learned I'm not the only one. I was never told upfront that I only had 72 hours to withdraw my application and get my fee back. I asked multiple times, both during the tour and on follow-up calls, whether I could get my $200 holding deposit back if I didn't like the unit once it was actually ready to view. I was told yes, every time. I specifically said I didn't want to sign anything with the lease, until I'd seen the actual unit I'd be living in. When the time came for the approval phone call, I felt pressured into moving forward on a unit I hadn't agreed to sight-unseen, and ended up losing $250 ($50 application fee + $200 holding fee) rather than deal with it further. (Now imagine multiple other applicants in the same situation... it can add up..) This is my first time renting in the US, so yes, I should have read the fine print more carefully instead of trusting what I was told on the phone and in person. That's on me. I can own that. But if they're loose with the truth before you've signed anything, I have to wonder what else is buried in the lease itself. TO FUTURE RENTERS AND OTHER FIRST TIME RENTERS: bring someone experienced with US leasing, bring a real estate agent, or at minimum read every single document before you hand over any money... don't rely on verbal reassurances, even if the staff seem trustworthy. I trusted the leasing team, including Toni, and it cost me $250 to learn that lesson

While the clean facilities and amenities have made living here pleasant, the events have made it an absolute joy. You can tell that the even coordinator, Kim, has put so much thought, effort, and care into the numerous events and activities she's provided us residents. She brings life to this community. She always finds new and fun ways to bring the us together. I anxiously await the calendar release at the beginning of the month to see what Kim has in store for us. She truly goes above and beyond and you can tell that she really has a passion for bringing people together. It's honestly what has set this location apart from any other apartment complex I've lived in. Everytime I talk to family and friends about the events we've had they are in disbelief! Kim and her knack for excellent event coordinating has been one of the top 3 reasons we renewed our lease. She truly makes the residents feel cared for and valued. I know I speak for the majority of the residents when I say we appreciate you Kim and you are the heart of Homecoming. I've docked a star because of the copious amounts of dog poop on the property grounds that crickets and roaches constantly feast on. Other than that, I have no real complaints.

    I lived here for appx 1 year with my husband and 4 kids. Everyone in the leasing office was amazing…read moreto us. Very professional, friendly and they assisted us in a timely manner. Christine, Brittani, Aaryn and Jeanine were great. Also Ralph but I don't think he's there any longer. The entire maintenance crew was also great. Mike, sam, and another SUPER kind gentleman but I seemed to have forgotten how to spell his name but I left him a review on another site. It started with a D so if you guys could remind me that would be great! So I can properly recognize him on here. The property is VERY well kept, and beautifully maintained. Pool has always been clean, same for the gym. I only have a few downsides (notice I didn't remove any stars for them) I know they do TRY. (Maybe corporate can work on the parking one). First is parking- please note your vehicle will have to fit in the tandem spot. (There are various sizes, some are long enough to fit a semi while others would only fit a smart car) I know it may seem like an obvious fact but some people actually get away with it if their neighbors seem fine with it. However, one of my neighbors did NOT. I have 4 kids in car seats and when we moved in, we had a smaller vehicle but we knew we were going to get a larger one. We got an SUV & Our parking spot was all the way to the back of the alley, so it was pretty "out of the way". But we still got complaints (pretty sure from the same person) that it stuck out of the given space. We tried parking it in our garage, but because we would be unable to open the doors and load all the kids in, it wasn't really an option. We ended up having to park in the visitor parking. Which was also unfavorable since we had to carry/ walk with our 4 small kids across the parking lot and up to our unit. So please be mindful of that. Second- while this specific area of Rancho is beautiful and overall "safe", PLEASE remember to lock your cars. I can admit I have left my guard down a few times and I didn't double check that the cars were locked so my car got broken into and my mother's bag was stolen. The vehicle was parked in our tandem spot. We did file a police report and the leasing office DID do their best to resolve any issues we had (they replaced my apartment keys and changed the lock on my unit.) so again I really couldn't dock them for that. I'm only sharing these things with you as reminders. I don't want these things to deter you from considering Carmel as a place to live because we did enjoy living there and we were very sad that we left. Overall, the highlights are the staff and the appearance of the apartment complex as a whole. Thank you Carmel for a great year with you!

My family absolutely adores the warm and effective team, including Chrissy, Shelly, Maria and the newest member Ian. I cannot rave about them enough! Chrissy and Shelly always make us feel welcomed and part of a community. They work hard no matter what the circumstances to make us feel heard, respected and to resolve any issues quickly. Maria and Ian not only efficiently and effectively work to make sure everything is clean and in working order, but also make us feel like family. When working on resolving issues in the apartment, they never leave a mess and they are very communicative with what's going on. They always smile and are great with my young kids.

Shelly and Chrissy are a great team of handling big and small requests from us. I remember one time, some random salesman came to my apartment wandering when I was not home, I caught that on my camera so I called the leasing office and asked for Shelly's help because I have a package delivery soon during that time. Shelly ran from the office to my apartment and requested the person leave the complex, and I never see any salesman knocking on my door since then. After Chrissy and Shelly came, the dog poop bags are always refilled, they even make the office feel like home to us, they hosted different events for different holidays celebrations and enlightened our stay a lot. We love Shelly and Chrissy, they are the reason why we would still staying in this complex, cannot imagine a day without them, especially Shelly. They are so good that actually makes the complex really dog friendly, including the office. Before this team came, we felt unwelcome and not truly dog friendly. But now, we hope to stay longer because of how good they are, will highly recommend this community to everyone who wants to live in a good environment with good energy people to manage the complex!

    Jamie was helpful at first upon trying to get an apartment but let me tell you after coming and…read morefilling everything out it has been nothing but a headache .... 1 let's start off with the fact Jamie DID NOT TELL ME THE DRYER AIR VENT GOES OUT TO THE BALCONY YOU PAY FOR SO BASICALLY DUST AND ALL WILL BE ALL OVER YOUR BALCONY YOU CANT EVEN USE IT OR PUT OUT DOOR FURNITURE BECAUSE IT WILL CONSTANTLY GET DIRTY AND IN OTHER WORDS CANT USE IT! So basically you're paying for only the unit not the balcony unless you don't care for air vent dust from people's dryers coming into your balcony while you're hanging out with friends and family . Next is parking they will charge YOU 10$ DAILY!!!!! For parking when they have OPEN PARKING SPACES EVERYWHERE!! Their excuse is those open spaces belong to 2 bedroom apartments but at that they aren't even being used or rented right now so why not let the people that are waiting for a parking pay for that for now or let alone not charge for guest parking when your already paying monthly rent here! It's pathetic it's like a scheme for them to constantly make money every month off you oppose to just your RENT! So instead of 25/26 for a 1 bedroom I'm laying 2900 basically after paying 10$ daily and at the end of the month it's an extra 300$ a month Sharon as well look they are both nice I get they doing they job and have a title they have to hold but man it's been a headache I don't have nothing bad to say about them Becuase I understand it's there job I'm just upset that this is like this especially in this day and age with how the world is with money and all ! I'll be updating as I live here I'm stuck in a lease and I wish I can get out but it is what it is. Community is nice yes they upkeep it like none other I can't lie about that but man cmon the parking is a headache! So again Jamie and Sharon aren't the issue I get Sharon is community manager so I'm hoping she can be a voice for others and let the people up high know like hey this has been an issue but it is what it is ... I can't blame them only gotta take accountability myself for not thoroughly making sure certain things were set in stone .
