Be careful in the winter!
Aaron R.

I lived here from 2016-2019 and overall it was a very enjoyable experience. Here are the pros: 1. Excellent location. It's about a 15-minute drive to downtown Portland yet it feels like you are in a rural area. There is a shopping center literally across the street. There is also a hospital right down the hill and easy access to Highway 26 which takes you to the stunning Oregon coast in about 90 minutes. The only negative about the location is that it can be tricky navigation through the hills in the winter with the snowy/icy conditions. 2. The apartments are very nice with what I thought was a unique floorplan. The balcony views are the best I've had from any apartment that I've lived in and there is plenty of natural light. 3. The gym and swimming pool/hot tub were nice amenities. 4. The staff was friendly and my maintenance requests were handled in a timely fashion. Regarding a user's negative comments about construction, the management did discount rent for three months. As far as negatives go, the only main ones would be financially-related. The rent was raised every time I wanted to extend my lease but I understand that it's a standard protocol for apartment complexes. When I moved out, they deducted money from my deposit and claimed that my cats did damage. I believe the apartment was in good condition when I left minus standard wear and tear. Also, I was paying pet rent for three years ($50 a month for two cats) and I think it's unfair to charge pet rent if you are going to take money out of the move-in deposit at the end anyways. Despite that, I would recommend living here if you move to the Portland area - especially if you don't have pets! ;-)

Construction wood just thrown about.  Management could care less what they property looks like.

Sunset summit= a construction zone with no regard to its residents. After living here for 2 years and going through 2 major construction projects it seems like it will never end. The projects are very poorly managed and they will NOT tell you about them when you sign your lease. Year 1= blacktop project. Instead of doing small sections at a time they tear up half the road all the way around the complex. Traffic jams, poor planning, pot holes, and a rushed project I fed up with tar everywhere and road conditions worse then they began with. Year 2= complete invasion and hostile takeover. Cosmetic repairs to the outside of the building= a take over of the apartment on the inside ( see pictures). Going on the 3rd month of this now and management refuses to do anything to rectify the situation. I also highly recommend getting a printed and signed copy of your lease. Management is known for sneaking things in at the end and trying to rush you through everything.

The view from my new home!!!

They clearly have a lot of pride in how the building looks as well as creating a sense of community for everyone that lives there. I was so sad to give notice. I truly thought I'd live there for years. Fortunately and unfortunately, I moved for an amazing job in California. Even that experience was great. They have been very communicative and thorough while I work out my deposit accounting. The apartments themselves are lovely and the amenitites really can't be beat (minus a pool). The finishes are modern and there's a floorplan that suits nearly every need. Definitely check this one out!

My time at Peloton Apartments has been marked by unresolved maintenance issues, rampant theft,…read more unprofessional notices/communication, and a lack of accountability from both on-site management/maintenance and the property owners, Security Properties Residential. One of the most distressing incidents involved the destruction of a custom planter containing my late mother's ashes during unauthorized maintenance. Despite reporting it immediately and providing video evidence, I received no meaningful response for over a week, only a request to "prove it," with no apology or offer to address the damage. This occurred alongside other issues such as ignored work orders, safety concerns, and illegal entry notices violating Oregon's 48-hour requirement, giving themselves all week to stop by unannounced. The on-site manager repeatedly blocked my attempts to reach corporate representatives, refusing to provide any contact beyond his team. Since formally filing a complaint, I've experienced increased discomfort in my home and continued disregard for outstanding concerns. All while getting notices of rent increases and credit improvement scams from Security Properties. Another issue is that the building is covered in dog and pigeon waste. The majority of tenants are dog owners and "walk" their dogs anywhere in and around the building, so do the math. The stench last Summer was ridiculous. The Hub Lounge was also covered in pet hair and waste on the deck when we booked it, along with a rancid meat-caked grill, and they refused us a refund. Zero accountability or goodwill towards tenants. This review reflects my personal experience and is based on documented facts submitted to the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) in an active tenant rights investigation. If you are a current or former tenant and have experienced similar treatment, I strongly encourage you to submit your complaint to BOLI. Your voice matters and you're not alone. I hope Security Properties and the Peloton management team take this as an opportunity to reflect on how they treat residents and to improve communication, compliance, and care for those who live here. Save the AI response as a certified letter and several calls and letters before that earned me no response or acknowledgment. My

The Heartline team, both in the office and on maintenance, is always friendly and helpful. They're communicative through the resident portal and quick to reply to emails, which is a big deal since the office is usually closed by the time I get home from work. There's also a real sense of community here among residents. Packages are super easy with (free!) Fetch. You just choose when you want your things delivered and they take them right up to your door. The call box makes it easy to buzz visitors into the building and up the elevator. Even with most people being home right now due to coronavirus, I almost never hear my neighbors. Additionally, management has been extremely proactive to help keep residents and staff healthy during all of this. I feel safe here and wouldn't want to be under "stay home" orders anywhere else. Sure, you could live at any luxury apartment complex in the Pearl and get similar apartments (well, most other places don't have GAS STOVES but Heartline does!) and amenities, but it's the overall experience you'll get at Heartline that truly sets it apart. I'm so glad I get to call this place home!

My family and I lived here for 2.5 years and it was definitely one of the more enjoyable apartments…read moreI've lived in. I greatly appreciated the beautiful view, how soundproof the walls were (we never heard anyone walking above us and any noise from other apartments was very faint) and how helpful the management was overall. When we first moved there they were a bit disorganized (didn't always complete service requests on time), but they improved some in this regard as time went on. It's also a very pet friendly building and it was fun to "meet" so many different dogs on the elevator :-) The only real downside was the location imo. The nearby parks, and neighborhood in general, are overrun by homeless people and drug addicts, the smell of human urine was on pretty much every street corner in that neighborhood, drug needles could be found lying around on the streets/sidewalks and if you like fresh air in the summertime be prepared for random yelling and screaming at night, sirens blaring day and night and road work first thing in the morning. So, yeah, not the best neighborhood but the apartment itself was very nice and quiet as long as you keep your windows shut :-P

Living at Modera Belmont was an unsafe and stressful experience. Despite repeated requests for…read moredisability accommodations, management failed to provide meaningful support. Our unit and common areas were impacted by flooding, pests, biohazards, and security failures. We endured harassment, including hate speech, which we reported but management did not adequately address. Several incidents rose to the level of police reports, and our service animals and health were directly affected. Providers confirmed the need for accommodations, but management's response was minimal and inadequate. Ultimately, conditions became so unsafe that we had no choice but to seek alternative housing at our own expense. Tenants with disabilities deserve safe housing and fair treatment, and unfortunately, that was not our experience here. Updating to add: Before signing a lease with Mill Creek Residential (or any of its properties), I strongly recommend reviewing their track record on the Better Business Bureau (BBB). You can search for complaints submitted by tenants across multiple properties, including unresolved issues involving safety concerns, ignored maintenance, and failure to respond to disability accommodation requests. Make sure you see the full picture before signing anything.

Real people, super supportive and helpful, the building is so well kept... can't find one thing to complain about! And as far as a home, I really like living here. My apartment is beautiful and has a great layout. I get so much light, the plants are thriving. The people in the building are perfect IMO (very friendly, tons of adorable dogs, but nobody is like intrusive or trying to be your new best friend). And this is a weird thing to say but the community spaces are great! There's VR, a movie room with an insane amount of comfortable seating, a game room, and a lovely living room/kitchen style hosting space (my waffle brunches are loving this one!) So yeah, kind of had to come in and leave a review. If you're looking to move into an apartment and they have an opening, definitely give it a tour :)

Let's get the part out of the way that most will look for immediately; Lucian's prices are not only…read morecompetitive, they're compelling. Ok, with that done, let's talk about the experience. I put out a request for bids to multiple bidders. Lucian was not only the first to respond, but he was the only one who committed to a time to be out and evaluating the site in person. He was right on time, he physically distanced to ensure no stress of COVID, and provided excellent guidance while actively listening to my wants for the fence. Lucian was exceptionally responsive to my questions in person and in email; he provided a timely and well-detailed quote. Two weeks prior, Lucian contacted me to see if I wanted to move up the date; since I'm not going anywhere, absolutely! He showed up - again, right on time with his staff. They started and worked well into the early evening, past what I would've expected on both days. My fence was completed in two days - not only was the fence EXACTLY what I wanted/what was advertised, but the area? Cleaner than it was when the crew started. Lucian is exactly the kind of business owner I want to go out of my way to support. And his crew? Top notch, worked non-stop, and the end result is that my house looks infinitely better with this quality fencing than it could have otherwise.

I have a pit bull, which probably already tells you most of what you need to know. I got her as a…read more9 month old puppy, and she immediately made short shrift of my entire, 25-year-old (pretty rotted) perimeter fence. Not a small job, and an emergency one, because she LOVED running around the neighbors' yards. Lucian and his Dad braved the elements on extremely short notice, and built an entire new fence (mostly in the rain) for a great price. They gave me lots of upgrades, like unknotted wood, and thicker footers, and were incredibly fast and efficient. Its beautiful. That should have been enough, but - no - then my about six months later my back neighbors got their own Bernadoodle puppy, and the two dogs decided they didn't want a fence, so my pitty figured out how to pound her head against the boards until they bowed, then get her jaws on the wood, and tear through it. Lucian agreed that metal roof panels attached to the back fence would probably work (either that or an electric cattle fence), so he and his son came back out with the panels, cut them to fit, and spent a day attaching them, which - it turns out - is not as easy as it sounds. Again, quick service and excellent value. This family business, NW Modern, is fantastic, and I highly recommend them. And yes - it appears the metal roof panels are working!
