    Here is the list of charges (and except the rent)

    *******Attention****** 1- Do not rent apartment 38J! There is an extremely horrible smell coming from the wall in the bedroom (mostly at night or early in the morning) that will keep you from sleeping. 2- Be aware that they will charge you for painting, cleaning, and other miscellaneous items after you move out, effectively keeping the $500 deposit regardless of how clean you leave the apartment. I was charged over $830 in total. Please see the attached file the list of charges!!!

    Mold test

    I lived there for 3 years. You are going to pay a lot of money to live in a low class community The whole place smells like dog piss and poop (in part this is the neighbors fault). But they could also do a better job keeping the place clean We paid a pet $500 deposit and were told that an additional $50 a month fee will apply to us for having pets, they did not offer to refund the deposit. They took all the grills from the pool and sent letters/emails addressing that we couldn't have grill outside. Even when the agent told us it was ok to have them. He probably just wanted to do his job and get the lease signed. So have fun paying $3.5k to not even being able to grill The trash is always flooded and it smells all over the parking lot On top of that our 1 year old son had cough all the time we lived there. There were signs of mold, especially when the mushrooms grew up to 3 inches high all over the garage and the downstairs laundry room and they refused to do a thorough testing. So I went a head and got one just to find that there were spores coming from the vents, because they weren't being clean. So my son was sick all that time mainly due to their negligence. If you can't find anywhere else to live then go for it and GL, but if you definitely have options you should choose carefully

Nick was incredibly patient, giving up some time in his day to give us a second tour so we could measure for furniture and even helped us choose the perfect apartment. He answered our questions thoroughly. The fact that this property even has real humans in their leasing office is a miracle. Our past complex and those we visited before choosing Reata either had AI handle all their calls or didn't have anyone in their leasing office, which took away from the amenities we were paying for (a clubhouse we couldn't use because no one staffed the leasing office where it was located). The move in was super easy; someone was parked in my assigned parking spot and the office took care of it within an hour. So impressed with our new home already. Thanks for all your help, Nick!

Everyone in the office has been so nice and helpful, especially Zach, Nick, and Hernan. They're always friendly, easy to talk to, and really make you feel welcomed. The maintenance team is also great, and I especially want to mention Adrian. He is seriously amazing! He's always so helpful, gets things taken care of, and goes above and beyond whenever we needed anything. We would definitely recommend Reata!

    Updated to add: I think the saddest part of this whole thing is that the Artisan has ignored us for…read moreover a year, despite sending us to collections for bogus charges. No one came to our move-out inspection, no one answered any of our calls or emails when we were moving out and after we received this absurd bill and reached out to the Artisan to request to meet in person to have a dignified discussion like adults, we were told it was out of their hands and they couldn't speak to us any longer. It's amazing how less than 12 hours after posting a negative review on the internet they suddenly become so available and want to be of service, as though they haven't been the ones orchestrating the nightmare the entire time! You want to know how you can help? You can stop spending all day on Yelp writing fake reviews of the Artisan, return our security deposit and clear our bill. Original post: If I could give zero stars, I would. Living at the Artisan Apartments was one of the most stressful and disappointing housing experiences of my life. We have tried to resolve things with them peacefully, but for some unexplainable reason, they have sent us to a collections company, years after living there, even though we already had a lawyer send a cease and desist formally opposing bogus move-out charges and demanding the return of our security deposit. Staff ignored this contact and now a year later we are being contacted by collections to collect on absurd move-out charges that we already told the Artisan we have photographic and video proof to show that their alleged charges are not true. We are now forced to take legal action and I want to make sure the community is aware of the hazards that exist at the Artisan Laguna Beach. Habitability Issues * Our unit was plagued by rodent infestations throughout the building. * Plumbing and water problems were never fully addressed after a massive 2021 flood that displaced many tenants. These issues made units unsafe and unhealthy for years afterward. * We endured living beneath aggressive pit bulls that created daily noise, safety concerns, and contributed to the property feeling unlivable. Management was fully aware but chose not to act. Shady Billing & Move-Out Practices * Despite giving over 30 days' written notice and leaving on time, Artisan tried to charge us $3,052 in "rent" for June-July 2024 -- even though a new family took over our apartment on June 28th. In other words, they attempted to double-charge rent for a period when they were already collecting from another tenant. * We hired a professional cleaning crew ($300) and left the unit sparkling clean. We also thoroughly documented the condition with photos and videos. Yet, Artisan slapped on bogus "cleaning" and "carpet" fees anyway. * Their own invoice shows they returned our $500 security deposit -- which directly contradicts their claim that these extra charges were justified. If cleaning and repairs were truly needed, they should have deducted from the deposit with documentation, not tried to invent new charges afterward. Dishonest Corporate Practices * When we disputed the charges, even Greystar's own accounts payable staff admitted the information from the property "wasn't exactly clear" and said they'd dig further. We never heard back -- instead, the balance was dumped into collections a year later. * Collections harassment continues despite the clear contradictions, the unresolved dispute, and the fact that their practices violate California tenant protection laws (Civil Code §1950.5 and §1941.1). Bottom Line Artisan/Greystar will: * Ignore major safety and habitability problems. * Charge you for things you don't owe, even while returning your deposit. * Try to double-collect rent. * Push disputes into collections instead of resolving them. Do yourself a favor: stay far away from this place. There are plenty of other apartments in the area where management respects tenants, follows the law, and provides safe, livable housing. Artisan is not one of them. I've included a few photos to show a sample of what living there was like but have many more.

One of the things I appreciated most was how spacious the apartments are. My family and friends always complimented on how well-kept and beautiful the place looked. I would like to recognize Dian Thompson, the Senior Community Manager. Dian is kind, upbeat, professional, and attentive. Dian always treated residents with respect and was dedicated to making the community a great place to live. Bridget Isaza was also part of the office personnel and she too was professional and kind. The landscaping was always beautifully maintained, creating a clean, welcoming, and peaceful environment. While some people may mention the occasional noise, I personally felt that the well-kept grounds and overall atmosphere made living there well worth it. Lastly, I want to recognize the maintenance team. Abel and Ignacio are incredibly hardworking, professional, and always have a positive attitude. Whenever maintenance was needed, they responded promptly and took pride in their work. Their dedication and commitment to keeping the property in excellent condition did not go unnoticed.

This wasn't about "fair enforcement" -- it was aggressive, unnecessary, and handled without any consideration or proper communication. Hiding behind "permit policies" doesn't excuse poor judgment or lack of basic respect for residents. Situations should be handled with professionalism and common sense, not by immediately escalating to towing. To anyone considering moving here: be very careful. Management does not prioritize residents, and situations can escalate quickly over minor issues. This has been one of the worst experiences I've had with apartment management. I would not recommend living here.
