Review from the web

I lived here for 12 years and I can honestly say this is the best place ever! Never had bugs, it was safe, my car was never broken into, never had any problems. Maintenance all the guys were very nice friendly and helpful, they were quick almost always they were there the day you put in the complaint and fixed the problem, the only time it wasn't fixed immediately, is when they had to order something. Special thanks to James Oliver and Jose. The office staff were always friendly and helpful and always made me feel important. Special thanks to Michele and Elliot. You guys made it a great place to live! BUT I would of lived there another 12 years, but the Company who recently bought the building DON'T care about anything but MONEY, cause they kick every on HUD, or LOWER INCOME, out to raise the rent and still they have many vacant units! The Company who owns Santa Fe Ranch Apts are Crewel Heartless People ! Thanks, Sharon Hughen J202
