Not the best place to live. People at the office charge you way over rent amount. It is not as affordable as other apartments. Have to work two jobs just to afford it. I only work one job and they keep charging me for no reason. Dont live here.

Property Manager at The Highlander responded to this review

Hi there, I'm sorry you feel you're being overcharged and aren't enjoying living at the Highlander. The lease you signed with us is a legally binding contract that dictates what rent amount you're charged each month. That amount doesn't and can't... vary. Perhaps there's been a miscommunication? I'd like to help resolve any problems you're experiencing, can you contact me at jenny@stevebrownapts.com?
