The Pointe

I'm going on my 2nd year at this property. Not use to living in a complex, so this is new to me. There is some noise, but it's quite tolerable, though I live on the side away from the freeway. As for management, they've been great and very easy to deal with. The apartment (2 BR) is quite comfortable and the complex is conveniently located near OC/LA boundary. I highly recommend.

Despite expensive living, The Pointe doesn't care much about cockroaches in the hallways. I saw many on the hallways very often. Also, no cell phone signals and you cannot receive any local TV signal. The management is very difficult to deal with. Don't expect to see your security deposit back when you leave. They would come up with reasons to charge for more than $200 even when you cleaned the place and didn't damage any thing. They said their policy is different from other apts. I feel the… security deposit should be used when things are damaged; not for increasing the resale value, which should be regular budget from the company. I would not recommend any renter who do not want to deal with bad management to The Point apt Read More

We moved in this past January '14 and have had no problems at all thus far. Previous reviews discuss noise but we've had no complaints. Our apartment faces the inside and is away from the freeway and pool so this may be part of the reason we haven't had any noise issues.

The pool is underwhelming though. 3 1/2 feet and it's a tiny square. No spa.

We pay a little extra to be on the 4th floor and this may also help with the noise, from outside and/or above (there are only 4 floors).

My boyfriend and I just moved out and so glad we did. We read some reviews online but we didn't listen.

The apartments are nice, but overpriced. The office staff are only there Monday - Saturday so if you work during the week don't count on ever seeing the manager.

Kids running and screaming, constant noise in the hallways. They claimed it was a smoke free community, which was the main reason we moved in, but it wasn't.

The turnover is constant, people seem to want to leave after 3 months. If… there is one good thing about living there is the City of Brea. Nice mall, restaurants and easy freeway access...oh don't take an apartment facing the freeway...or the fountain area like we did.

The noise from the freeway is amplified in the fountain area. And the maintenance people are cutting the lawn at 6:00 am. Read More
