Davenport Apartments

The blatant disrespect and lack of communication at this complex is the worst of have ever experienced in any place I have rented in the last 20+ years. The cockroaches, the rude staff, the lack of follow-thru on anything is horrible. There are cars in the complex that have been left by past tenants, yet not removed. The screaming and yelling and swearing by the trashy neighbors has been horrible to deal with. It has gotten worse and worse, and even with new management, I hate it here. I am... moving as soon as I can! Be smart, and move ANYWHERE else! Read More

Called this place home for quite a few years. But every year the amenities and quality of the home goes down and rent goes up. The ability to talk to a real live person without a hastle has waned as well.

Look elsewhere if you can. These apartments are older, and despite a fresh coat of paint in a lot of the exterior areas (already scraping off in numerous places), there's a whole lot that needs to be updated. Or fixed just because of age and/or normal use.

Expect that to come from your pocket... every single time, not theirs. Rented for 7 years, always on time with payments and kept finding excuses to stay somehow. Tried to deal with the lack of communication, day of notices (or attempts to retroactively give notices), and being told that they do one thing and clearly demonstrate or have a history of doing another. Gravity and age and 3-5 year durability blinds going on at least their 8th are finally my last straw.

Find somewhere else (and take me with you). Read More

I just called the leasing department to see if I can take a look at a 1bed/1bath/1012 sq ft unit and also to discuss some of the concerning reviews I've read about this place (primarily, the roaches). Carmen answered and confirmed that the rent and availability is correct as advertised. She was nice and professional. However, I was directly told that I CANNOT look at the unit unless I apply to live there in that unit (you have to pay an application fee, by the way). I was told it's not ready to... view and that it'll take 7 days to get ready once I apply. I asked if there was any way I can look at it so I can decide if my things will fit and get a feel for the layout of the unit before I pay MONEY TO APPLY - I was told "No, it's our policy not to show units until they are ready and we only prepare our units for showing once someone applies to live there." Also confirmed with her that the policy is absolutely stupid and it makes ZERO SENSE to apply to live in a place and not be allowed to see it beforehand, WTF?? Obviously a shady place based on that. Essentially to summarize - "no you cannot see the unit you're interested in because it's not ready to view, and no we will will not get it ready to view unless you pay us money to apply. Once you've paid an application fee and we get it ready for view, then you can view it." ABSURD WAY OF DOING BUSINESS, STAY AWAY! Read More

Do not move here. It’s tempting because they have great prices for the amount of space you get, but it isn’t even worth it. This place will drive you mad. The apartments are very cheaply made, the walls are paper thin and in the townhome section we basically share the floor all the way across. So you can feel and hear your neighbor stomping around. When you’re downstairs it sounds like they’re right above you, but it’s your neighbors. There are kids running around yelling and setting off... firecrackers everywhere and leaving the trash all over. The trash bin is ALWAYS overfilled and flowing into the street. My current neighbor has a dog that barks incessantly all day, I’ve complained and the apartments do not care at all. We’ve had to have maintenance out to our place for issues not caused by us over seven times since moving in back in June. There is literally dog poop everywhere when walking through the apartments, the people don’t clean up after their pets and neither does maintenance. Like so much so, it stinks in the middle of the complex where most of the grass is. You can’t even see your building number because the design is so poor, so getting deliveries is stressful, that’s minor compared to what we’ve dealt with here though. All in all, I just wanted to warn people. We’re getting out of here as soon as possible. Read More

I am so impressed with the staff here. I looked at a lot of apartments in the Dallas-Irving area and this place blew me away at the value. Carmen rushed through the process (on a holiday weekend) so I could move in as soon as I needed, when she easily could have filled the apartment with a non-college student. The staff is always happy and I feel like they actually care about me. Even non-urgent work orders get done within a few days. I've found the community to be a short commute from virtually... anywhere in Dallas, but I'm definitely not paying Dallas pricing, especially for such a big apartment. The neighbors I've found to be very friendly. Love the huge kitchen, love the area, and look forward to staying here for a long time. Read More
