Seven Lakes at Carrollwood

BUILDING CODE VIOLATIONS! This company is renting crumbling buildings and then attempting repairs without obtaining the required permits. The entire staircase leading up to my unit was severed from the main building, which was right behind the wall where my bed was! I was scared for my life with hurricane season around the corner! Electrical outlets were popping bc the wiring was out of code. I had to take a shower at the gym frequently because the shower knob kept falling off. I assume the… plumbing is also out of code. The front door to the apartment would not close completely and management outright refused to replace it because it "still works." The walls have holes and cracks that are "fixed" by just painting over them. Mountains of trash bags are constantly overflowing the dumpster and all over the streets.

People constantly dump trash and leave pet waste literally everywhere. I did not get a chance to tour my unit before I signed and the office put me in front of a soccer field where people who don't live in the complex trespass and hang out until late at night, yelling and loitering. What's left of what used to be their grass is now scortched earth, dog poop and garbage mixed together (see pics). Random people that I did not recognize were banging on my door every night bc there is no security, gate or any safety measures whatsoever. You also have to pay your rent on shady third-party app. Front office staff was ultra-rude and dismissive once the lease was signed. Seven Lakes is exploiting low-income people by renting these ancient buildings that are decades out of code. Avoid this place at all costs! Read More

We have been living in this community for a few years. I would recommend anyone moving here to think twice before making that decision. the most recent experience took place last night. Our AC unit was giving off sparks, which clearly is a fire hazard (mix sparks with this heat and bushes can lead to a fire). we called maintenance and they stated it was not an emergency. they came to fix it this morning but as you can see poorly done! Some of the maintenance guys spend more time helping one of… the residents repair cars then doing their job.

This doesn’t include the pool area always being packed with people that don’t live here. Homeless people living in the pool area. Other individuals blasting music late at night! I can go on! It’s honestly disappointing Read More

These people that live here are quiet and respectful. The staff is always friendly and kind. The mailman is kind, thoughtful, and caring. Most of all, Dion is efficient, kind, courteous, and respectful. The trash service personnel are nice also. The gym amenities are clean. It is a wonderful place to raise a child.

The leasing office is horrible, the size of the apartment for the price is completely absurd, the massive chunk of ceiling that caved in on my porch was covered with chicken wire almost a year ago and that's their "fix" to the problem, black mold is persistently growing back every time I clean it in the bathroom, the black mold in the closet was "fixed" by painting over it and now the paint is chipping off with a 10in circle on my ceiling now, I'm being charged extra every month for the "service… fee" to pay my rent even though I'm already paying it and have sent proof, so now I have to send a photo of the receipt every month and have a battle with the office to hopefully take the charges off before my lease is up, the pool has chewed up pizza crusts on the ground, garbage wrappers floating in the pool, the front door has about a half inch gap between the door and floor so the air just flows out and the maintenance put a new strip in that did nothing because it's the actual door that's the problem.. honestly I could go on and on. I've been here since March of 2021 and have hated every second since the new management took over last year. I CANNOT wait to leave. Read More
