Forum Tallahassee Apartments

I would not recommend this apartment complex at all. The campus is filthy, with trash and debris everywhere, and it looks nothing like what’s advertised on the website. The amenities are a joke—most of them don’t even work. Property management is practically nonexistent, making it impossible to get any issues addressed. The apartments themselves are moldy and poorly maintained. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere.

I dont know how this has a 5 star rating. This office is incredibly rude and refuses to help residents. The elevator wasn't accessible from the 4th (top) floor, there were loose wires hanging out instead. In an outside area. they claimed they had ordered the part over a year ago but COVID supply chain issues were why it wasn't fixed. Randi in the office was rude and insisted this wasn't a safety issue. it took them 10 months to put an updated certificate in the elevator. The one in there was... from 2016!

During my whole lease, I never had a mail key that worked. I kept asking but they claimed it was because of COVID issues as well. They told me to make a copy of roommate's key, but her's never worked either so we had to go to the office anytime we had to check our mail. Once when I asked they told me I could get a new key but I'd have to PAY for a replacement even though I never had a functioning one.

The apartment is furnished but we didn't receive the promised TV for 3 months. Both showers in my apartment were clogged during move in and the kitchen was dirty. Our hallways always smelled like trash and urine. The floors outside were extremely dirty and they didn't clean them for 11 months. The lights in the hallways were always burnt out, leaving it to be super dark when coming home, day or night. There was dog poop all over the grounds. The gate clickers kept breaking and they never told me the code to get in. The gates were actually open most of the time I lived there.

THEY messed up charging the utilities and they kept billing me twice for the first couple months. You had to pay a ridiculous fee to SimpleBills before moving in, unlike if you deal with Tallahassee Utilities directly. THEY messed up again tried to charge everyone high fees the last few months because they claimed to forget to do it the first 9 months.

HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT and I wouldn't recommend living here to anyone. Read More

Parents and student please beware!
This is my story and experience!!
Poor management!!
It’s been so draining living here the happiest day of my life thus far will be when I move out this July!!
Year 1- My roommates and I filed serval maintenance requests for August 2020 and they didn’t get resolved until June 2021. It took almost an entire year to replace our kitchen lightbulbs! My roommate at the time had 2 major leaks/holes in her ceiling and all the Forum was able to do is cover it with... cardboard! Which, caused an insane amount of mole within our apartment. I had resigned like a naive college student to originally keep my special rate and was given such a hard time to breach my lease. Then, I was given a short period of time to find another apartment in mid-July. Unfortunately, there was no better option FOR ME financially! So, I unfortunately had to stick it out for one more year.
Year 2- I had to move a building over to just keep my rent rate that was a process in itself. This year has not been a walk in the park either. I WAS TOLD OUR mailbox keys had some issues due to covid and they were NEVER delivered, so every time I have needed to check my mail this year I have to go into the office so, they can come out with a key. Again I faced AC issues and we (my roommates and I )are left to deal with the bill. We have spotted moles in our air vent and certain spots. Our dryer does not work and a maintenance request was filed serval times. We are charged for trash services, but the trash have been left sitting in front of our doors for days, which causes horrible odors and flies. Now, we are being back charged for water there’s always an issue with our utility bills. I had to literally call the utilities companies every or other month. The list goes on this is simply the surface level of the EMOTIONAL DISTRESS I HAVE experienced these past two years! Strictly due to the Forum is ridiculous.
This is just a small portion I can go on for days. So please do your research! THIS HAS BEEN FAR FROM LUXURY LIVING IN MY OPINION. Read More

The gym and apartment were in bad shape. The gate did not work. I was also charged $75 for a rubber bracelet.

This has been the worst experience of my daughter living in Tallahassee yet. Her apartment has had a leak repeatedly 3 times over the last 2 months. The management here is unreliable. They give a lot of lip service and no follow up. I would not advise anyone to live here.
