Parkside Glen Apartments

I have lived at Parkside Glen for over 15 years I have been very happy here, raised my daughter here. They have Holiday events for the family’s, Santa Claus, Easter Egg hunt and once a year they have a Harvest Fair and a pool party. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Ok I would have to write a novel to let you guys know how bad this place is. Now when it comes to maintenance guys, they are very nice. But if you have to deal with the office, get ready for hell. That’s all I have to tell you. Oh ya, just a FYI make sure you read your lease before signing or renewing. I almost got nailed but get myself out.

I have lived in this apartment complex for quite a while. The first property manager we dealt with was really great and he helped us with all our necessary paper works. and helped us settle in.
After a year he was promoted to district manager, and was replaced by a not so nice person but workable. Joan was a strong property manager but you can talk to her and she would be willing to listen.
the next manager Han Kim, was also fine with us. He worked with us and have managed to get along with him. Jill one of the property lease person was great too.
Now, their property manager is Fernanda Godinez, and district Manager is Tom Wilson.
Both are very rude, seems like they don’t like old tenants. Both are very obnoxious and does not seem to listen and work with you. They aim arrows at you right away and just scare you that you will be kicked out of the property if you don’t follow they’re timetable for purposes of re-​certification. they said they have to «STRICTLY FOLLOW THE 120 DAYS RE-​CERTIFICATION» if you can’t you will be given a second notice and you will need to vacate your apartment in 90 days… if you don’t have your re certification papers in and make an appointment with them within the next week… Mind you the notice was given TODAY and they want you to come in, IN 3 DAYS!!! with all your papers!!! no IFS OR BUTS.
Without even trying to help you out she just throws that to you. It’s like either you have it or you don’t you’re OUT !!!
You CAN’T talk to them, and they are very inconsiderate of your situation. If ever you decide to lease an apartment here. Please be aware of the paper works that they need. They are merciless when it comes to you renewing your lease.
They said this is income base property, but all I see are new people with new cars, high end cars, this place used to be very strict when it comes to people fixing their vehicles in their designated parking spaces. Now you will see a lot of them and all over the parking lot. I wonder who these people are.
registration is expired, no parking permits… but you see them everyday… parked… in the property… and they are not towed. they are only given a notice of violation. I wonder… why???
But mind you if you are a visitor staying for the night without the parking permit and you happen to park on the uncovered parking space that says «compact» without the 24 hour visitor parking space written on the slot, even if your registration is up to date. THEY WILL TOW YOU!!! AND THEY WILL NOT GIVE YOU A WARNING!!! there’s no fair WARNING and they will not listen to you!!! EVEN IF YOU HAVE A NOTE… ON THE DASH BOARD.
YOU ARE BASICALLY ON YOUR OWN. they will accept no reason, specially if the office is closed and you just happen to come in late at night with a rental car!!! on a WEEKEND!!! and basically just had your own vehicle towed due to repair or accident!!! Mind you… you are NOT a visitor… but a tenant with a RENTAL CAR!!! AND A NOTE ON YOUR DASH BOARD, THAT SAYS!!! TEMP CAR… FOR APT SO AND SO!!! OFFICE CLOSED AND CAN’T GET A PERMIT!!!
OH YEAH THEY TOW YOU!!!
Be prepared with $ 500.00 dollars. because the towing company that they have are RUTHLESS as well. DON’T GET STUCK ON A WEEKEND BECAUSE YOUR BILL WILL BE A THOUSAND DOLLARS.
The property looks clean, but the appliances are breaking down, and they will not replace your over used appliances. You have to go through the property manager, all the way up to the District manager, just to have it replaced. What a red tape.
and of course they will not do it!!! I like living in this area, because it’s close to schools and everything else. close to work, etc. But it’s becoming too stressful dealing with the property manager and the district manager. It’s a lot of work now.
I should say am a fairly good tenant, we try to take care of the apartment we live in to the best of our ability, steam vac the carpet at least twice a year, vacuum everyday, scrub the tubs and toilets, replace what ever needs to be replaced due to wear and tear, we clean clean clean, every day… and take out the screens and wash them twice a year specially during the summer days. Clean the oven, the stove, clean the windows, the blinds. etc. etc. etc.
All these things we do because we want to upkeep the place.
We are never late on our rent at all for 8 long years we’ve lived here…
if you’ve lived there for quite a while you suffer the consequences of old dingy cheaply installed carpet until the day you decide to get the HECK OUT OF THERE… and be CHARGED for cleaning…
and as you all well know MOVING IS NEVER EVER EASY!!! but we will, as soon as we could.
ONE THING I LOVE ABOUT THIS PLACE are the other people that work here… ANA, JOSE, SAL… they’re the best. They know how to treat people and greet you cordially, they work with you and discuss things with you and help you out.
Their MANAGERS should learn from them.

INCOME RESTRICTED! What a colossal waste of time to drive all the way down there at lunch, walk around the property to find out I couldn’t qualify!!! How about disclosing that little tidbit when I called you in the first place?! Beware… and don’t waste your time.

Lived in this place for almost 6 years. Horrible, sketchy, and irresponsible management staff.
If you do decide to move in: 1. Do not drop your rent in the drop box (they will «lose» it and charge you an extra $ 50 for that month); 2. Always keep your paperwork regarding your rental agreements, no matter how many years you live there (you will need it when you move out and they charge you for everything so they can keep your deposit); 3. During the annual re-​certification process, be sure you know what you’re signing (they will slyly slip you a new lease to sign which then holds you liable for staying there another year); 4. You do not have to renew your lease after the first year; 5. Management team checks in your apartment at least 3 times a year with very little to late notices; 6. Again, be very careful and think twice before moving into this apartment complex or the next one down the street (green and white apartment complex) because they have the same management group.
Good Luck!

We moved into Parkside Glen directly out of high school when they were brand new. At that time the rent was income based so the application process was tedious. The old management staff (Jennifer and her crew) at Parkside Glen was useless especially when it came to enforcing who used the pool, pool hours, gym hours and unruly neighbors. The gym was tiny with one weight machine and 1 treadmill, and the office has a nice common room that can be rented out. Parking was ridiculous, even with assigned parking numbers, there was never enough to go around.
