I have had such an amazing experience with the staff and the complex is gorgeous. The roads look amazing! The renovations that they are doing to the rooms look amazing! I had an exceptional experience with Kimberlynn In the leasing office. She was extremely helpful throughout the entire process and can’t thank her enough.

Kim has been absolutely excellent in the entire process for applying to Briarcliffe. She was super patient and kind and always checking up on me to see how the process was going. She was always able to answer any of my questions at every point of the application. She reassured me during the process and was able to make sure I was always taken care of. Her kindness and positivity throughout this process shows how much she cares about giving each applicant the appropriate consideration and care they need. Kim made this process very enjoyable and I am very grateful for Kim and her abilities!

UPDATE: They did clean it but we still need two trash cans.
There is only one section of townhomes that are trashed and it’s the ones near the road/car wash. No other units have this problem. We are the only ones that have ONE TRASHCAN.
Sidenote-no issues with home or anything, just tired of seeing trash everytime I walk out the door. It’s very distasteful. Would I recommend living here? YES.

Moving into one of your renovated townhouses and Kim has made the whole proccess super easy. There was one slight hiccup with our mov in date but she was able to pull some strings and let us keep our original move in date. Kim will definitely go above and beyond for any needs and concerns you may have.

The women in this office are AMAZING! I was moving to Lansing, and they made this transition as smooth as possible. I believe they went above and beyond any expectations to help me and my family. So happy I was able to work with Kim and Kathleen.

The new management company (Bender) is a breath of fresh air compared to all others in the past. I want to give a big shout out to the current maintenance supervisor "Clarence Street" who has gone above and beyond the call of duty to make sure that the work that needs to be done, is done correctly, and everyone is happy.
