Plumtree Apartments

Since moving to Plumtree over a year ago I've loved it! The staff is friendly, parking is easily accessible, and the location cannot be beat! You should seriously consider living at Plumtree.

Plumtree is the best value in the Lansing metro area. The apartments are spacious, and have forced air heating and cooling systems which are FAR cheaper to operate than the electric baseboard heat and window box A/C that their competitors all offer. The location is also prime; with Meijer, Target, Aldi, Big Lots etc all within easy walking distance. Office staff are always friendly and professional and strive to meet the needs of their residents. We just signed our third lease, and are very... happy to remain residents here for the foreseeable future. Lee mas

They lie to get you to rent here. The buildings are old and smelly. My building smells like poop, as if there is a cow farm outside. My apartment smells like smoke even though I do not smoke and even though we were told they do not allow smoking in the buildings. They're out for money and it's obvious.

My boyfriend and i have been living here since June. It seemed all good at first but as time goes on you see the flaws. Maintenance is okay, not very smart because they couldn’t figure out why we didn’t have cold water, when it was just a simple valve that was turned off. They ended up tearing my wall apart and messing up the sink to try to figure it out. Cops are here often and someone got robbed right outside of our apartment by three men. Doesn’t seem like a safe place. And when it comes to... rent it’s never the same. They’ve charged us double the rent for two months, i called and was wondering why so they figured it out and realized we were getting charged double everything. So they gave us the credit back but i’m still having issues with rent. I have to call them every 30 days to figure out why rent is more than it should be. Its just tiring. At first we were thinking about staying two years but now we want out when the lease ends. Shouldn’t be having this many problems. Lee mas

Don't even bother with Plumtree. My fiance and I moved here from California and it has to be the worst apartment I've lived in. The staff lies, the apartments are disgusting, and the rent is NOT what it is on here,try add another $50-$100. We were told if we moved in during May we would receive two months free rent and water, heat, internet, sewage, and electricity were included. So we signed our lease and on paper we were moved in on the 31st of May. We were charged rent for ONE day and then... charged on June 2 for our second months rent. So the "two months free rent" was gone in 3 days. We were also told our apartments was recently renovated. Once we arrived, the apartment was APPALLING. There was garlic on the floor and in the cabinets, there were onions all over the floor, the shower drain was clogged with hair and wouldn't drain for the first 4 days we were here and the whole apartment smelled awful. After moving our stuff into the apartment, we decided to look around and check everything out. Once we started looking, we realized we were essentially lied to and given a dilapidated, disgusting apartment. In the living room and in the bathroom, the ceiling is warped from water damage most likely, and emits an awful, musty odor which we believe to be mold. Numerous outlets around the apartment don't work at all. The appliances are all rusted and the cabinets in the kitchen are warped and are strangely sticky, and the medicine cabinet in the bathroom is rusted beyond belief. Also, the neighbors are awful. Since June 9, there have been fireworks launched every single night, going from 10 PM to 2 AM, and there is always yelling which can be heard around the apartment complex and through walls. Also our neighbor above us would constantly stomp throughout the night and would wake us up almost every night between 3 AM and 5 AM. When we confronted our leasing agent about the numerous flaws in the apartment, we were told "That's just 50 years of living, its just like that" and didn't offer to fix anything. When we also brought up our neighbors he also offered no solution. The hallways also smell of some unknown odor, it smell like a wet dog mixed with rotten food and cigarette smoke. So after a month, we have already decided to move out. Don't bother with Plumtree, they will lie straight to your face and charge you for anything and everything. Don't waste your money here. Lee mas
