Montecito Apartamentos

I’m starting to reconsider if my decision to move here was a good choice or not. First off, I’d like to acknowledge that the office staff isn’t as responsive as they should be which leads me to my next point. I’ve sent multiple emails regarding a few things to which I still have yet to receive any response from them from this email I sent a couple weeks ago. As of now I still have yet to receive a key fob which is stated in the leasing contract and it’s been a little over a month since my move... in date and I still haven’t gotten any update on it. Secondly, I can confirm that maintenance requests do take a while to get done which was previously mentioned in a review posted in the fall of 2024. However, what baffled me the most was when I logged in to submit a different request regarding a leak with the dishwasher, I look through the most recent request I submitted back on January 15th regarding a dining room lightbulb that needed to be replaced only to find out that it was marked as “completed” the very next day, January 16th, when clearly the lightbulb still hasn’t been replaced as of today Feb. 1st. Even though these issues may be minor to some, it feels like I’m not being valued as a new resident of this community and it is very disheartening only after a little over a month of living here. With all things considered, rating this property 2 stars in my opinion is a fair and honest evaluation of this management company after living here for at least a month. Please note, the 2-star rating is an evaluation of the MANAGEMENT COMPANY, not the property itself. If the staff in the office actually took care of the issues I’ve been having, this review would honestly be 5 stars and I’d recommend others to look into this property. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case. So if you’re looking for places to live, I hope everyone takes the time to read the most recent reviews of this property, including this review, when making your final decision to move. Lee mas

Do not move here. For the amount I pay in rent, is utterly ridiculous how horrible the community is. Save your money and find somewhere decent

Bad, they don’t take care about the apartments, someone broke into my apartment and stole everything while I was away and the office didn’t care

The new management company that purchased the apartment a little of a year ago is a nightmare to deal with. Most of the issues/complaints I've had take way to long to deal with, and they towed my vehicle over night that was Registered in their new mandatory Virtual Parking system, that now one asked for. Old building, best to look elsewhere.

Great apartment ! Nice Area ! Warm vibe love the front office and scenery around the apartment
