Cedar Ridge Apartments & Townhomes

I arranged an in-person tour of a unit. When I arrived, I was told there were none to view. After meeting with the manager & asking many questions, I was told I needed a co-signer or guarantor even though I had a sizeable checking account balance (which I showed the paperwork). Then was told I could pay for a 1-year lease in advance ($12,000). When I questioned this, I was told it was with the Fair Housing Act. I walked the property (which I had lived at 20 years ago). The buildings had... not been maintained, there were loose wires by the A/C units, standing water, and rusted handrails. Very disappointed in the entire interview process.

I’ve lived here for almost a year and please If you do move .. try to move the furthest from the car wash .. I don’t know whose genius idea was to put a loud car wash next to apartments but it gets so loud my apartment shakes .. Nice apartment but trash also comes from the car wash and maintenance takes their time picking it up .. experience 5/10

There was a sewer gas leak the entire year we lived there, and we didnt know until the third professional mold inspector found the uncapped drain in the laundry room!!
My family and I had to evacuate last November from symptoms that mimicked that of toxic mold. We all had symptoms, like burning eyes, irritated throat, hacking, headaches, nautious, lethargic. I was becoming very ill and could hardly function with shortness of breathe, confusion, very tired, dizzy and I believed to be near... death before the second time we evacuated. When I reported that i thought there was toxic mold in our unit to the office, they came by and did three home kit mold tests. After that we were treated so horrible, like we had done something wrong. I told the manager that there was something in our unit making me ill, and instead of looking further into the problem they sued us for rent due. We had not paid our rent for two months because we were using our rent money to pay for hotel rooms. We were homeless and the cedars knew this, but offered no help to figure out what was causing these symptoms and illness. Finally after 2 negative mold tests, we had one more by a different company. During the third test,The inspector asked if we smelled anything like sewage in our townhome during the time we lived there. He found that the drain in the laundry room that went to the sewer was uncapped! This was also the case in the garage where i had my art studio set up and spent many hours in there a foot away from drain with sewer gas leaking. This is why I was so sick compared to the rest of my family! I reported the exposed drain to Ashley, the property coordinator, and told her how sick i was. She sent maintenance over who did NOTHING to fix the leak and still left them both exposed leaking sewer gas. We were needing to pack, my husband had to put saran wrap over the drains so we could. We tried to get everything out in time but we couldnt. They made us leave the property last Thursday without our things. Then they took our things and threw it all into a huge pile on the curb damaging almost everything we had. This situation was horrible and we were treated badly by the cedars. The maintenance worker was even laughing and taunting us as we got thrown out by the sheriff. This experience has left me with permanent health problems and an eviction on my credit and damaged property. I have never been treated so horrible. I wouldnt recommend my worst enemy live on this property! Lee mas

They do their best to wring every penny out of you that they can. They charge you fees and then charge you more fees for charging you fees. They say they aren't going to charge you a fee and then do it anyway and refuse to do anything about it.

Also, a tenant and her dog were shot to death here a few weeks ago and they haven't even acknowledged it or attempted to help their tenants feel safer. They do not care about you, only your money.

Staff are awful to deal with. They don’t return calls, they are rude and they will throw fees and fines your way just to do it. The pool was never open the years I lived there. Air conditioner never works and made our bills so expensive.
