This apartment complex is one of the most frustrating and predatory places I've dealt with,…read moreespecially as a military tenant. Their "military clause" is extremely restrictive and completely out of touch with real-life situations. They only allow early termination for PCS or ETS orders--nothing else. Situations like divorce, loss of BAH, or being required to move back into the barracks are ignored. Even official memorandums or supporting documentation aren't accepted. That means service members can get trapped paying $1,400-$1,500 a month for a one-bedroom apartment regardless of their circumstances. If you try to leave anyway, the penalties are excessive. You risk losing your entire security deposit and can still be charged monthly rent until they find a new tenant. In other words, you could be paying for an apartment you no longer live in while also paying for a new place. That is not reasonable. The move-out standards are just as extreme. The unit must be returned in near "like-new" condition--far beyond normal wear and tear. Even minor dust, small marks, or everyday use can cost you your deposit. They strongly push residents to hire professional cleaners at their own expense and provide highly specific cleaning requirements down to exact products. Meanwhile, units are not consistently held to that same standard at move-in, which makes the expectations feel one-sided and unfair. Their notice policy is also rigid and unforgiving. You are required to give a very specific 30-day notice, and if you miss that window--even if your lease is ending--you can be charged for additional time. There is no clear or standard renewal process, which creates confusion and puts tenants at risk of paying more than they should. The only positive is the maintenance team--they respond quickly and do solid work. But that is the bare minimum and does not make up for the overall experience. At the end of the day, this place feels less like a community and more like a system designed to lock tenants into strict terms and maximize what they can charge. There are far better options in the area for the same price or less. I would strongly advise anyone--especially military members--to think twice before signing a lease here.

I move out of this apartment on February 12 of 2022. This people claim that I did not pay my last…read morerent which I have bank statement to prove it. they kept my deposit, and worse they lied about me damaging the room which was false. I asked them for picture and line items of things that I damage but they couldn't provide because it was all lies. I left the apartment unit in the same condition I found it. I thoroughly the entire place before I live. Most part of the unit was untouched because I was living by myself. The guess room and bathroom was untouched because I barely use them. But they still find a way in 2026 to say that I damage the property so they sent me to collection. They will try to Nickle and dime especially if you are a soldier. The funny part is that I have more evidence then they do. They couldn't provide any proof that the unit has been damage no picture no nothings just false accusation.

My experience with Elon property management and Link Terrence/Stewart way apartments has been a…read morenightmare. Since the beginning, their customer service had been horrific. Trying to get information on the unit due to me moving from overseas was like pulling teeth. asking something as simple as the dimensions of the unit and they said no. When I asked if it was a renovated unit since they have 3 different styles of units available on their property they shut me down and said we don't know and won't find out. They wouldn't do a video tour or even take pictures when I asked. My move-in date was 2 weeks earlier than I needed, so I was paying rent for a unit I wasn't living in. That wasn't an issue at all. What the issue was the day I moved in I came home to what you would expect a clean apartment. But no instead I came home to dog pee all over the carpets. Right, when you walked in it hit you in the face. Paint all over the floors, the stove not working, 4 holes in the laundry room, cockroaches crawling on the walls, a massive hole in the bathroom, closet doors off the hinges, lights out and not working, black mold on the walls, the glass on the medicine cabinet all broken, rust on the sinks, this is just a few things from the 3-page inspection form of deficiencies that needed to be fixed. I instantly called and emailed the company and they didn't get back to me. The next day I went down there to talk to them in person and they told me that they forgot to turn my apartment. That their manager and 2 maintenance men just quit. Well, I can tell you from living here not even a few weeks if I was an employee I would have quit too. Even the current maintenance guys have told me that they don't like working for this company and that they prefer their old companies more. Sunny (the assistant manager) talked with the director of Elon property management and they said that they would fix the issues starting Monday. A week later I asked maintenance how long you think it would be till all the things on the list are completed. He told me it would be done by tomorrow. Friday comes and they are still working in my unit. But at least they are working on it so I can't be mad. They are trying. Now it's Tuesday of the next week and I finally finished unpacking since I couldn't unpack while they were fixing holes and painting in every room possible. I am trying to set up my internet and I noticed that there wasn't an internet wall port. So I call sunny let her know my issue. She says maintenance will come this morning to fix it. I said okay please get it done today I have college classes I have to attend. That was at 830am. At 11, I came back and I noticed the internet port wasn't visible so I knew it wasn't fixed . From 11-4pm I waited and they never showed up. At 4:30 I was told that it wasn't a priority even though they market as the apartments amenities and they would not fix it till 3 days later. I then contact the Internet provider and they stated that the previous resident that lived here had Internet so there's an Internet port somewhere. During this whole experience, they couldn't help me with anything regardless the request. I feel like they should at least have a little bit of customer service a little bit of understanding if someone is moving across the world. Maybe it's because we are next to a military base so they know they can get away with it. Finding residents won't be an issue. I have been in this unit for about 2 1/2 weeks and I still have holes in my walls. I still have parts of my apartment that are not even painted. Seals around the toilet and tub that are not sealed, a big hole in the wall behind the toilet, blinds that are broken and missing shades, and a massive tree debris pile right above my door on my roof, which has been flooding my front door when it rains. There are so many cosmetics Issues that have not been resolved. My experience with this management company and this apartment complex is appalling. If I were you I would never move here. It is my biggest regret coming to Georgia.

I was a tenant for 2 years, when I moved in the apartment was very cold and the carpets were dirty…read more The floors in the kitchen and bathroom were not properly done and there was a hole in the floor in the storage room. I moved out on December 15th i had to leave due to unforeseen circumstances and before moving out I gave them a 60 day notice on October 23rd which was valid until December 23rd. I had spoke to the leasing office numerous times about what would happen if I leave before the 23rd of December and they stated to me that I can leave whenever I want but I would have to keep the lease in my name until the January 11th because they said it would be "cheaper" to keep it that way. I left out of the state of Georgia on December 15th, turned in my keys and filled out the proper paper work before I left. I had Georgia Power come to the apartment and turned off the electric on December 18th because they had to do it the following business day. Link Terrance sent me my move out statement even though I told them my situation which should have excluded me legally from paying any fees. They charged me $400 for an "electric pentalty" and $100 for a late fee for January when I was not occupying the unit. They stated that a leasing agent advised me to leave the electric on in my name until January 11th even though I already had a final bill from GA Power. The leasing agent DID NOT advise me to leave the electric on in my name to prevent this, so they are liars and unprofessional!! They also said they won't charge me a late fee but they still did for January!! This place is a crock of sh**!! And if you want to be taken advantage of go ahead and move here!!

I love it here from the reviews it's all bad but I have been here since April and everything has…read morebeen fantastic and not one problem only thing I would change is the parking and that the tow company would not be able to come in to the complex I hate how I park my motorcycle to save room for other cars and I come out and there is a dumb green sticker that is extremely hard to get off on my bike warning me that it would be towed The apartments are under new management and they have done a lot of fixing up I have not seen one spec of mold and the one time my ac went out they fixed it the same day the staff is really nice and place is clean I have only made one complaint so far (and that's the nasty neighbors not picking up after there dogs) but once I reported it I haven't seen anything around since So all in all it's really nice and quiet here there's pool,basketball,tennis,volleyball,corn hole,weight room,computer lab, club house, and an awesome pool to swim in they even host yoga on Saturdays!!!!!

They took down my last review to silence me. Can't even reply back to true feedback…read more IF YOUR A SOLDIER, DO NOT LIVE HERE. let me first say I am a SSG in the army. I've lived here and tartersal village down the road. If you need a place to stay with your family, do not bother coming here. They do not care about your privacy, Trash which I have a lot of photos of. Also my rent was 1300 dollars and they jacked it up to 2000. Which Georgia law states there is NO amount they can't increase, and they abuse that. The amount of corporate greed is disgusting and predatory to new incoming soldiers and family's. The maintenance is horrible, my apartment was flooding and they didn't do anything about it for months. Mold in the vents, they put in new utilities ie. microwave, fridge stainless steal, but it's the cheapest you'll see. This place renamed to Luxury apartments and it's a joke. No parking, no trash taken, dog shit litters the bins and the dog park. You wanna swim in a pool? Too bad it's closed and has been since I moved in. Nothing about this place is luxury. Trash LITTERS the entirety of the apartment complex. Need to call the front desk? Call them 5 times a day? No response. This place is a joke. DO NOT COME HERE it is literal hell. Also have seen kids at night in ski masks walking around with guns, the kids also break shit and throw trash everywhere, next to the playground. They stuff trash in the bushes, there is not one place you will go without seeing trash. I cant say a single positive thing about this place. It is unsafe, unsanitary, disgusting, and literal corporate greed at its finest. This is corporate America. Insane price gauging, you might as well go live in a house, or find somewhere else to live. If you even try to address the front with ANY concerns, nothing will happen. Not a single thing.. id love to say more but there is a limit on reviews. They do not care about your family's safety or health.
