They allow you to have pets. My dog loves having some friends and they are also putting in a dog park in our backyard. There is a bus system that runs through the apartment complex that is free to ride for students. It comes at convenient times and get me to my classes on time. Overall, this is a fun place to live. It has a volleyball court, basketball court, fields to play football and soccer in, a pool, and a frolf course. I never have issues with parking and the maintenance crew is on point and efficient for the most part. Rent is pretty good if you compare it with other common student housing around campus. Overall great place to live and I would recommend it as a MNSU student.

The people at Summit and Jacob Heights are crooks and they could care less about the people that…read morethey are serving in the community or that attend MNSU. All they care about is making the extra dollar. The apartments are not the best and they act as if it is a five star complex. The way that they carry themselves at that complex is uppity so if you like foul play and people that don't care about but look at you like a dollar sign then move on in.

Jacob Heights is poss the worst place I could've chose to live. On the outside it looks like a…read morehalfway decent place, but in reality it's not. The houses are made very cheaply and are designed to break over time. Good luck not getting charged on move out. There's not a single straight door in the house. Our front door seal was taking out so our AC was costing us more money than it should've. We moved in to broken doors, cabinets, flooring, you name it. If you're thinking about living her, let me spare you the trouble. Don't touch this place with a 10ft pole.

The landlords also bring residents donuts and cookies on holidays and special occasions. It is super convenient to not have to take a bus to school, and you receive a free parking pass.

the apartment is a cute and convenient place to stay; however, management there is horrible. The…read moreonly good one out of the office is maintenance (Pat). The other two in the office do not listen to tenant's concerns and will disregard anything that is said because they do not think people are serious. They expect to keep a place clean and undamaged but the place already was damaged when we moved in (renovated apartment too). It was like they rushed to get the apartment to be "move in" ready when it wasn't. There was gum stuck on the balcony, the trim was damaged, paint was chipped, etc. If I were you I wouldn't live here no matter how convenient it is.

Whatever you do DONT MOVE HERE or rent from this place they are scammers!! In it for the money and…read morethat's it! Rent is insane for the apartment size and quality ( plus it's going up since no one will rent from them and they're not making money) and they do not care. I've lived here for a year and have never once heard back from the management about any issues, NOT ONCE! i communicate solely with the maintenance men who are the only people that seem to care about the residents living conditions! when we moved in they failed to set up out wifi, and of course would not respond to our messages about how/where to go to get one. We ended up having to contact the company ourselves and scheduling a time for them to put in our wifi....almost 3 weeks after moving in. Had to pay out of pocket to extend my hotspot and they refused to pay me back for their mistake. They will enter you apartment and turn off the water without notice because they "forget" to send them out. They allow dogs but there's broken glass ALL over the property that I repeatedly have to clean up. For most of the winter they didn't clean our sidewalks and my boyfriend or the downstairs neighbor would go shovel and sand so people didn't fall. We have a large problem with theft in the mail/laundry rooms and had to create a petition for the management to even consider putting up cameras. Now it's been almost a year and still no cameras but supposedly they are coming. Rent wise they charge us an extra $32 a month for "resident benefits" that we never get anything from (supposed to be coupons or free stuff from local spots) and i just found out I also have to pay annually for my dog to have a pet account each year which is another $35 on top of the $100 a month it cost to have him + $600 pet deposit that you don't get back. Overall they don't communicate or try to improve their properties AT ALL and wonder why no one wants to move in. They also have people pretending to give them 5 star reviews on google to trick people into thinking some people like them. I know because some of the account name's are people I met with/spoke to when moving in... they've boughten so many properties I believe they have to money to make decent apartments they just truly don't care about making a safe, decent place for residents to live and want to make money

The overall ownership/management of Velair…read moreProperties aka Rosa Place I and Rosa Place II is at fault for this review, but the lack of experience as well as lack of oversight by the local management isn't helping either. You cant call ANYONE Direct locally or at corporate headquarters. You must leave a voicemail and HOPE someone returns a call. Great maintenance man but his hands are tied as well, due to corporate and only having so many hours in a work week. There is NO onsite management living here either so when they go home for the night or weekend, they could give two shits about what is going on, or needs attention! The manager her has about 110 units to manage between the two properties and is way overloaded with the amount of paperwork and compliance for the income based part of their property. Literally MONTHS to get approved and now the lying by management to appease residents will bite them in the butt. Turnovers are horrendously and painstakingly delayed which causes additional lies about your move in date and they could care less! The buildings were hastily put together as witnessed by things like crack in walls from ground settling, tons of missed powenails in mounting cupboards an d cabinets, now splitting the wood, not to mention the cheapest paint and carpet known to mankind. Tent raises are at least $50.00 a year while services and support staff have been nothing but cut. Elevators have been out at least three times in the 2 years i've been here, once for almost 10 days. No urgency in repairs, same thing with underground parking garage doors.

I caught hell 2 years ago with one of the property managers who called me names who told family card members but she can drive on a 3-year expired license plate and park it at Rosa Place and nothing was done.. the maintenance man is the biggest problem all he does walk around harassed stalks look at cameras and go back and forth and tell management what he sees have them putting fractions up on their tennis doors and they did this or they did that he doesn't clean up anymore he staying tennis business he's always in your apartment when you're not at home management believes and said everything he says he got keys to the office he got keys.. legal aid won't step in and do anything but I'm in the process of calling NAACP something has to be done I still have nightmares I'm still mad that I couldn't do anything about it because I had so many people against me..
