OK, I am not a disgruntled resident but... I have lived here 5 years now and have seen this place continue to decline. I love the location and I got lucky as my unit is in pretty good shape.
However a lot of the units are awful and Canflor Management should be ashamed of how they rent these units and the price they charge. I think HUD standards would not fly for these places.
Granted, St. Augustine is a tough rental area. Most places want first, last and security to move in, these places do not, but that is most likely the reason they do keep them rented. But for 950 a month, really? No dishwashers, but you will have a garbage disposal. No central heat and air, just one of those AC units like you might find in a hotel room. You are paying for the location and not having to have much money upfront, not for a nice quality apartment. Most of the residents are really nice, or they just keep to themselves. The reviews with the mold are correct. There are some problems with that, your just gonna have to deal if you move in. The only reason I stay is that my income does not afford me the luxury of being able to save up the deposits and such to go to another place. So you might get lucky and get a half way decent unit but it's a crap shoot! So I just want people to be aware of the issues. Try to get them to show you the specific unit if you can before moving in or you may freak out. This is a truly honest review, I just want people to be aware and not get blindsided. Look at all your options first. read more
