Absurd Move Out Fees, bad management
I never post reviews, but my experience at Springfield is my only negative living experience out of any of the apartment complexes I lived in. We moved in initially due to the positive reviews, but this must've been under previous management. We lived in this complex for two years and moved out due to constant problems with unleashed dogs plus management. I'll list out some of the pros and cons but BEWARE, this is a complex that WILL get you in the end for cleaning costs. I've never had such an... awful experience. We spent 2 entire days detail cleaning our apartment. Even detaching the oven and scrubbing it down, went over the carpets, even mopped the balcony. We left it in far better condition than we entered it. Even with those efforts factored in, they charged us over $700 for cleaning services and deducted our security deposit, leaving nearly a $600 bill which is absolutely absurd. They provided the report after I requested a copy since I couldn't comprehend such an excessive bill and nearly all was listed as good condition except THE FIREPLACE and the WATER HEATER! We never used the fireplace the entire time we lived there. We even spoke to management in regards to our apartment filling up with smoke due to OUR NEIGHBORS using their fire place and their only solution was recommending we put plastic over the fireplace, which we did.
Pros:
Yard maintenance is done once a week
A good amount of storage
Only two stories tall, so not a lot of shared walls if you're lucky enough to have great neighbors.
Cons:
Sleazy management
Cost of rent is not worth the property
Dogs consistently offleash and owners don't pick up after themselves
Smoke leaks from their chimneys to the point our upstairs complex filled with smoke and made us and our friends sick.
I HIGHLY do not recommend living here, it was truly the worst apartment I've ever lived in.
