I moved to Farmington Hills recently and after hunting for apartments for over two weeks, I found The Retreat at Farmington Hills to be one of the most elegant and spacious apartments here. These apartments have been renovated COMPLETELY, so everything is basically new.There is amazing Washer Dryer facility in the apartment, and an open kitchen with all modern appliances. There is still a little bit of construction left in some buildings, but apart from that, I love it here and would recommend it to my friends.

I just moved in. Everything is great. Ashley in the office took very care of me. She was outstanding in her service. She went above and beyond to make my move easy. Highly recommend! Also everyone else in the office were very friendly.

Okay so this has been a bit of a rollercoaster so ride it with me as I explain the ups and downs…. I’m giving 5 stars simply because the staff have simply gone out their way for me & although some of it is owed other times it was simply just because they really do care. So I originally came in and met with Dominic to schedule a viewing. I was a little late to the appointment but Sean was happy to take me because Dominic had another client visiting. The viewing went great and I loved the apartment. Of course the show apartment is always nicer but we’ll get to that. A few weeks go by and I decide this is the place I want. Well I call and get Ashley and she walked me through what to do to get the apartment online. I do the application and at this point I need the apartment by the end of the week. Ashley literally pushed everything through for me to get the application quickly approved and called me every step of the way. She understood the assignment and I am forever grateful! Now I get there and move in and the apartment was not in the condition for me to move in but I came so far and was so tired from the drive I unloaded and said I would address it the next day. As I unloaded I found multiple things wrong that should’ve been caught but weren’t and I was in deed frustrated but I felt this just needed to be a conversation with all feelings aside because the staff had been so great and there was no way they would’ve let me move in here KNOWING the apartment looked like it did. So i send a very detailed email and a few hours went by so I stopped pass the office. I was met at the door by Autumn the property manager and she was just about to respond to my email , she literally had it on her screen. We spoke, she compensated me, had the apartment professionally cleaned, and took note of the other issues which we have agreed on solutions for… She was absolutely amazing! Bruce the maintenance is now my new bestie because he responds to every call I make to get things right. He even brought his manager Ken over at one point just to make sure everything was ok and to see what else was needed. We are still working on some things but at least we’re working on them. Thank you to everyone who played a role in making a bad experience turn good! Your hard work and dedication is truly appreciated and I’m excited to continue my lease with you all.
