This is the worst apartment complex I have ever rented from. My lease ended in 2018. I would be very skeptical if Dawn and Jim are still in charge. They are quite rude And unhelpful. I had many problems with my water bills being too high when I wasn't even living in the apartment because I had to move south for another job. The water bill was higher than when I lived in the apartment. They also changed my locks before I turned in the key. I assume they had another person living in my apartment but we're still charging me. The structure of the apartments are beautiful, but the management made it absolutely terrible.

I stayed at SkyVue for my last 2 years at college. Reading the other reviews, I don't necessarily…read moredisagree with the complaints, but I do believe rating 1 star is a bit too low. Honestly, the day to day here was fine. Noises were rarely too loud or went on too late into the night, though that likely varies depending on the neighbors. Security was seen often, never felt unsafe. The rooms were comfortable, the bathrooms were well functioning, and overall my experience was fairly comfortable. Yes, the trash is an issue. It is not well maintained, the shoot clogs easily and other residents fill the trash rooms instead of taking it to the dumpsters on ground floor. Though the dumpsters were also often overflowing. The hottub gets turned off during the summer and they advertise it as a 'pool' when not heated but its maybe 4ft and they don't clean it over the summer. The couch did start to leave small pieces of fake leather everywhere, but new cushions were provided when requested. The maintenance staff was always kind. Smoke detectors and fire extinguishers were checked regularly and functioned well. The front desk workers were also very nice. Furniture is provided and despite some lack of general building maintenance, I can confidently say SkyVue is an ok place to live. I'm sure for quite a bit more money one could do better. But there is absolutely much worse out there.

DO NOT LEASE FROM THIS PLACE. These people are grifters. They do not hire enough maintenance so the…read morebuilding and property are literally surrounded by trash. They've got less than half the amount of parking necessary for the tenants and will give you up to a tow agency for a buck. DO NOT LEASE HERE IT IS TERRIBLE

I really enjoy the location and look of these apartments. This is my second stint in MI and I…read morecouldn't even get in 6 years ago. I got off the waiting list when I moved back last year, but ended up here after my other place didn't work out. I should have just waited. The office and maintenance staff are friendly and helpful and the location can't be beat. Also, the building feels secure with exterior keyed entry. My only complaint is that there isn't quite enough parking for all residents and their guests. There is a "lot" across the street, but it has no real defined space, is basically dirt and has NO lighting. Perhaps if it were cleared properly, laid with gravel and lit, I'd feel better about sending my friends over there.

I moved into a duplex on East Michigan Ave, which was rented to my boyfriend and I from the East…read moreMichigan Ave LLC/Gillepsie Group/Prudden Place Management. We were approved right away, and excited about our move to Lansing. Immediately we were told by the current downstairs neighbors there was an ongoing rodent problem. The neighbors essentially told us they had been listening to mice in the walls of the house since April when they moved in, and the company was actually having to pay to move the tenants elsewhere as a result. We began hearing the same noises right away, and my cat caught a mouse- but we were reassured time and time again the issue was being handled. That said, the downstairs neighbors insisted the house itself had been deemed unable to cohabit ate by one exterminator and encouraged us to keep our eyes and ears open. After the downstairs neighbors moved out, we began hearing individuals come into the apartment in the evenings. I complained about this, not understanding how this was happening, and the most which was done was that the manager- Sarah Frese- wrote a note to the squatters that the police would be informed. In fact, my boyfriend and I didn't understand how anyone was getting into the apartment, and so we went and checked the doors only to discover that weeks after our downstairs neighbors had been moved out, not only were the locks NOT changed on the main entry way doors, they were not changed on the downstairs apartment doors either. We locked the bottom locks of the downstairs apartment- and voila- no more squatters. We also found the mice issue was not immediately resolved, and not only that- we had a squirrel issue. Around October, after the squirrel issue was handled (and only discovered after coming home to a squirrel in front of my upstairs door way INSIDE) we got NEW neighbors. The new neighbors moved in with their trash bags in the middle of the evening. From the first evening the new neighbors were there, they began to cause havoc. The neighbors threw our laundry in the dryer on top of the dryer and onto the floor to make room for their own. They began immediately partying most nights of the week, blaring their music so loudly that our two children were waking up in our UPSTAIRS apartment over the sound of their fans. Pot smoke wreaked from stepping into the main entry ways, and the soon we were making phone calls to the non-emergency line four times a week, while simultaneously EMAILING Sarah each time. After we began contacting the police due to the noise complaints, the neighbors began harassing us, screaming through the ceiling. Twice the lease holder verbally threatened me, both times in front of my five year old. At one point the neighbor saw my ten year old daughter in the window, and began threatening her as well. I requested the name of the girl on the lease to attempt to get a PPO for my children and myself, and Sarah refused that info stating confidentiality. In the last days of our stay in the apartment, the police complained to us about how often the noise complaints were happening. The police told us the management company should be resolving these issues, and I informed the police I had been emailing for three months, and my manager had told me there was almost nothing she could do, and to continually call the police if we had issues. I told the cops I agreed that they have better things to do, and actually gave the management companies number per their request because they found it so shocking that a manager at a management company would rather have tenants getting visited by cops then simply taking care of the issue themselves. The morning after our next and last noise complaint, the downstairs neighbor- Lauren Velez- poured bleach into a load of our laundry, destroying everything in our laundry- including my sons bedding, and a good handful of our clothing. I have had to file a police report for vandalism, and Sarah has once again said there is nothing she can do It is now January and we have moved out of the apartment. The neighbor Last week- the 27th- our neighbors received their FIRST lease violation for NOISE. This is DESPITE three months of emails about the noise, pot smoke, cigarette smoke, verbal threats of physical harassment, and vandalism of our things. This company is a trumped up version of an old slum lord. Not only would i NOT recommend this company, but i would LOVE for the management company as a whole to be entirely cleared out if not taught some normal, functioning practices. Gillepsie Group seems okay in taking advantage of poor people.

We had only one month to find a new home and move across country. Redwood DeWitt wis a gem! My husband called and spoke with Meghann and decided to apply. We got approved for one of their 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment homes and we couldn't be happier. Seeing the unit for the first time in person was a huge relief. One of the biggest reasons we moved here was because my husband is going to need a quiet place to study while he is in medical school. It is very peaceful and not crowded. It could also be because the community is still being built. Two other reasons, we got a two attached car garage and you can install full size washer/ dryer in the unit. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We are very excited to be here. Worth every penny to live in comfort.
