Champions Green Apartments

I recommend that anyone that is looking for an apartment to keep looking. This has been my worst experience ever with an apartment. Management is completely unprofessional (No one answers the phone, responds to email, and I received a nasty attitude from the head of the office when mentioning not getting responses). Often times maintenance has to be called numerous times for issues to get resolved. I've dealt with mold, leaks, and bugs during my stay. Recently it has become extremely noisy,... people can be heard partying by the pool well after midnight, and management has done nothing. Read More

I recently moved after being there for 5 yrs. The apartments are spacious since they are older; however, the rent has gone up way too high. Addition of the "smart system" is not enough to justify the hike in prices. The apartments need to be completely refurbished for the price to be worth it. Parking is horrible. Roaches due to leaks and they make you pay for damages to your apartment caused by the complex's failure to completely fix the issues. Not worth the money at all.

Pros: Friendly Neighbors (Not much disruptions unless you count my crazy neighbor and her cheating Fiance....They just moved in 2 months ago [A lot of yelling] from this post so hoping they get it together by the time I leave.)

Family Friendly ( They do a lot of family related events so if you have kids they will like it here.)

Safe area (other than the 1 time we had some cars broken into nothing else crazy has happened in the complex.2019)

Maintenance (believe it or not the maintenance team... especially Sam are very nice.)

Now for the cons and why I put this as a 3...

Parking: Some people have too many cars to 1 household..... so if you go somewhere at 7 pm and come back after 9 good look finding parking in front of your apartment. I have had nights where I would have to go 2 building up to get a parking spot.

Cats: Yes, there are a lot of cats that roam around the place. I have 1 cat that likes to hang out in our breezeway, sometimes in front of my door.

3: BUGS: this one alone contributed to me leaving. I am a relatively clean person no food left out but OMG the bugs is a problem. Im on the bottom floor labeled first floor so at least once a week I feel like some bug is in my home ready to die. Spiders, this weird love bug looking bugs, roaches, 1 time it was a lizard.... Imagine waking up in the middle of the night and BOOM roach on your arm. not once, but TWICE. yeah, I am not with that. At my last apartment complex (Barrington Hills) I never encountered a roach, so this was too much for me. And the bugs are only docile when its cold. So spring and summer it gets real.

Nature: Specifically, for me it was the snakes. Yes, this place has snakes. the reviews did not lie. i was thinking maybe it was a one off thing....no. I am scare of snakes and in the 3 years being here I have seen 4. 2 dead and 2 alive. the first month moving into my place I saw a baby snake (the ones with the cone head) and i screamed and met my neighbors for the first time.....embarrassing....

mold: IDK why but when it rains alot my sunroom got ALOT of mold. I feel like I constantly had to clean it off only for it to come back. That isn't healthy for a person to deal with. They need better window insulation or something...

This is a long review, but I had to give all the tea.

In Summary: The staff and maintenance are nice, the bugs is what killed it for me. I couldn't do another round of this to save my life. SO stay at your own discretion.

My air conditioner suddenly stopped working. I called the office and in less than 24 hours, the maintenance staff came out to help. They quickly determined the source of the problem and were able to fix it within 10 minutes. Thank you Sam and Nina for taking care of family and me!

The water is ALWAYS out. They can’t seem to fix a plumbing issue that’s been going on for what seems forever. We get no warning, they just shut the water off and won’t tell anyone when it’ll be back on. Super inconvenient. Happens way too often!!!
