AS A RESIDENT Pros:…read more *friendly and knowledgeable staff who build a relationship with you *very well maintained property -- it always looks pristine *amazing amenities -- pool, game room, cardio room + weight room, wine bar, covered garage available, valet trash 5 days/week *multiple monthly resident events *resident portal for easy payment and maintenance *each unit is thoroughly and regularly maintained by the staff, including fire/smoke detector checks, fire extinguisher checks, AC filter replacements, dryer vent cleanouts, etc. *elevators available *very pet friendly including a dog wash room *carpet only in the bedroom Cons: *the other residents -- I don't know what it is, but everyone who lives here is very rude, entitled and inconsiderate of their neighbors. *people don't respect quiet hours -- I was consistently woken up to vacuuming and furniture moving above me anywhere from 2am-6am. And likewise, other people didn't haven't realistic expectations for regular living sounds during daytime hours. The person below me would bang on his ceiling for "rolling things" in the middle of the afternoon. *people don't respect that it's a non-smoking community -- my next door neighbor smoked so much weed in his apartment that it would infiltrate mine through the walls and vents. *pet friendly community, but very disrespectful pet owners -- it's a pretty small community with A LOT of dogs. The walking area is always covered in dog poop even though bags are provided. *elevators available but not always working -- sometimes one is out of service for weeks at a time *there's only 2 exits for each building which didn't seem like an issue until living in it, especially with the dog situation *package room is always chaotic, unorganized, and deliveries left in the wrong building *these apartments are too expensive and the staff work too hard for your fellow residents to make such a negative impact, but here we are. AS AN OFFICE RENTER Pros: *clean and professional office area *shared kitchenette/break room with a microwave and fridge *access to all community events and amenities listed above (except valet trash) *leasing office promotes your business to the residents *free coffee machine to offer your clients *conference room *guest WiFi available Cons: *residents are SO loud above you *conference room is first come, first serve *conference room was not sound proof (the noise from residents and music playing in the lobby was pretty distracting in a meeting). *separate entrance to the building through the office spaces, however, it is completely blocked by landscaping so you have to walk around anyway making that door kind of pointless

Any issues we've had were resolved immediately. The apartment is absolutely beautiful. We love that it's gated. That was a major plus for our family. Everyone for the most part that we've come into contact with has been beyond friendly. The neighbors in this complex has been the nicest we've had any where else. From what I've seen this place is very LGBT friendly as well. Which for my family of course was a great bonus. We didn't get any mistreatment or side eyes when we came in as a family to get our keys or when we went up to speak with the office staff. They've always made us feel more than welcome. We recommend this place.

We've had multiple problems, the latest being our bldg caught on fire on 6-19-26, due to negligence on the apartment complex. They had warnings, we lost power several days before the fire, the electricians that came out supposedly fixed the problem. This bldg has had multiple wiring issues for over a year and come to find out, it wasn't just our unit, several of the units have had wiring issues. instead of correcting the issue properly and by code standards they cut corners to save a dollar. The firefighters who came out called RedCross for the 8units they were dis-placed. The apartment complex did nothing for 6 of the 8units, they offered 2 model homes to 2 families, the other 6 units, they offered an empty unit for ppl to sleep in, I guess they were expecting people to move at 7pm at night or sleep on the floor??? No power for days, all food in fridge/freezer had to be thrown out. The worst thing about this whole situation...well Since this has happened, not one person from the complex has called/text or emailed to check on the displaced residents. They sent out a generic email saying they will keep up informed on the situation, no apologies, no well wishes, absolutely nothing from them! The decent thing would have been to reach out and check in and see how everyone was doing. But NOPE! Not to mention they take the weekends off so there's no one to get information from. The actual complex manager cannot ever be reached, they won't even give out her email! We've had gutter issues for months they keep saying they'll fix, they never do, we have holes in our ceiling from water leaks in the roof never been fixed! When asked about compensation for all the lost food, she replied, we'll talk next week! Like seriously, I need food before that, we had just spent over $400 at the grocery store, now all gone! But, Im glad they had a nice father's days weekend off!! If the gentleman who lived in complex next to breaker box was not home at the time, the whole bldg would be gone! And when he went to tell them something was wrong, the maintenance guy wouldn't listen to him, he looked behind the dryer thinking it was that. The resident had to tell him no, listen, look at the smoke, the maintenance staff is just as incompetent as the office staff lacks in decency! DO NOT RENT HERE!!! Go somewhere else

Unfortunately, there is not much good to say about the Station House at Lake Mary. They deleted…read moretheir old Yelp profile due to the number of bad reviews and created this new profile earlier this year, they also removed the reviews section from their Facebook page because of the negative reviews there. The buildings have been bought by a new management company who is nearly as incompetent as the last one. The management does not respond to messages in a timely manner and I don't think they do walkthroughs of the property, EVER, as there are issues like trash cans left in hallways, parts of the building falling off and laying on the floor for weeks on end, etc. Yesterday I went down to the parking garage and nearly broke my neck when I slipped on a flooded floor because the parking garages LITERALLY drain THROUGH the doors to the building, you have to open the doors with water coming down them and walk through a waterfall to gain access to the parking garage. The parking garage itself is so poorly constructed I think it rains more in there than outside when it's raining. There are also cars that people have abandoned in the parking garage over a YEAR ago that are still sitting there, flat tires, dust so thick that people write on it. Unfortunately every time they say things they are going to get better, and they might for a few weeks, but then back to the old ways. If you are looking at moving, I recommend that you talk to some of the actual residents who have been here for a while before doing so.

When my husband and I first toured Novel Parkway, we were enthralled by the amenities, space, and…read morekind staff. The leasing process was smooth and fairly efficient. We worked together with Ebony, leasing specialist, to ensure all rental concessions were applied and that our unit was move-in ready. Upon moving in, we were excited and hopeful to enjoy our new space. Unfortunately this excitement was short lived due to AC system failure about 4 days after our lease term began. We immediately alerted the maintenance team through the designated app for residents. The maintenance team came to take a look at our unit and advised the AC compressor needed replacement. The part needed for the compressor repair did not arrive until about 45 days later; leaving my husband, myself, and our two dogs without AC during that time. My husband and I both took turns discussing this issue with the leasing office and requesting possible reimbursement given the AC failure took place so soon after we had moved in. To our agitation, the leasing office was little help. My husband and I followed up for reimbursement for 6 months via email, telephone, and in-person until giving up completely. During the time of AC failure, my husband and I incurred several unexpected costs, such as electric bills that tripled in cost and the purchase of fans to assist with the Florida heat. We provided the office with receipt of these additional costs but little was done.The leasing office provided us with a $250 concession for the electric bill. Though, even that was minimal in our eyes because we spent about that amount on the fans alone. Altogether from this issue, my husband and I incurred over $700 in additional fees. All while still paying rent timely. Our AC was out from late August until October of 2024. Once corrected, we rarely faced any other issues (aside from WiFi failure every now and again) and thought things were looking up. We decided to renew our lease and were met with regret once more. Shortly after our renewal lease term had begun, our AC experienced system failure again. We are currently still without AC and have been for 3 weeks now. My husband and I have called and visited the office in-person but mostly receive the same responses stating they are "working on it." To this day, the leasing office has not presented my husband nor I with any remedy for this situation. We've heard from other residents enduring these same issues that gift cards were provided, hotel vouchers, etc. to mitigate the impact of this inconvenience. My husband and I have not received this same attention or care. In fact, my husband and I are usually the ones requesting an update and following up while the office has been radio silent otherwise. If you're looking to live in a complex that seems to ignore your needs and fails to follow up or update about important issues, Novel Parkway is the place for you. I'm incredibly disappointed that my husband and I renewed only to be dealing with the same issues once more. I can only hope that this complex does better in the future for the sake of its current residents and potential ones.

The maintenance staff have been called out to my apartment a few times during the year to fix a few things here and there and have ALWAYS arrived in a very timely matter.

Do not rent from Regatta Shores. Some aspects of the rental experience, such as additional monthly…read morefees and flooding-related issues, were not made clear until after the lease was signed. Parking fees, despite no assigned spots, and mandatory pest control charges were not clearly communicated. Trash overflowing from the dumpsters weekly, despite a monthly trash fee. There was a persistent mold smell in ground floor units, including ours following flooding prior to our move in that was not disclosed. Communication from property managers was inconsistent, and support to renters was limited. My overall impression was that the management approach prioritized profit, looking for any and every opportunity to extract money from tenants, and provide as little as possible in return. Ultimately my experience was frustrating and dehumanizing. Avoid this place at all cost. Update: 01/23/2024 I want to acknowledge UDR's response to my initial review below to say that it misses key issues. My main concern with the extra fees was what I saw as a lack of clarity and the scope of those fees not being fully disclosed until lease signing, forcing what I saw as a 'take it or leave it' situation. If they want to take the approach of an "all fees are listed on the website and in the contract" response, then fine. However, it doesn't address the misleading impression their approach gives. So, for those looking to rent, keep in mind that the rent advertised by UDR isn't the total cost you will be expected to pay them. Extra fees can greatly add to what you owe, making your total monthly costs higher than what the advertised rent suggests. Also, in their response UDR ignored other problems I mentioned, like unguaranteed paid parking, ongoing trash issues, and poor communication, including a surprise early move-out inspection. They only addressed the mold smell which they imply they attempted to address adequately. We will agree to disagree on that. Even disregarding many of my other criticisms, the photographic evidence of overflowing trash alone should have been embarrassing, yet they failed to acknowledge that in their response. How they've reacted here should give you some indication of what to expect should you choose to move there.

I also had a number of smaller issues, but the property manager, Jeff Hatton, took care of all of them. He's a good one!

We've had a rat problem since December, and despite submitting multiple maintenance requests--including a recent one from my husband--no action has been taken. We've had to catch multiple rats ourselves (photo attached) because there has been no proper pest control response. Additionally, trash is often left on the stairs, making the complex look unkept. Another issue is the sprinklers near my window, which spray out water with a strong, unpleasant odor, especially in the mornings. This place has potential, but the lack of maintenance and management response is disappointing. I hope these concerns are taken seriously because residents deserve a cleaner, more livable environment.
