Spyglass Apartments

Spyglass Apartments used to be a good place to live when, but this place has gone downhill faster than you could think possible. Under new management, THE MANAGEMENT IS THE WORST! They are both incapable and incompetent. You'd do better talking to a brick wall than trying to talk those people. more

We have been living in Spyglass since Feb 2007 and love it here! I guess we got lucky and live in a very quiet area of the complex. We have never been treated rudely or unfairly. If we don't find a house by Feb 2009, we will stay here til we do. It's nice here... I put in work order requests and they are completed in a timely manner, no complaints there. To those who complain about Spyglass Apts, MOVE! I don't want to live with BAD and RUDE residents.... more

I recently moved out of Spyglass summer 2007. My family and I are long time residents of Mansfield, TX. I am ashamed that this business is in operation considering the way they've treated residents like me. We didn't receive a water bill for months on end, but our eviction notice came when the apartment office staff failed to send a water bill. There is only one trash dumpster and it was emptied once a week. The trash around that one dumpster would get very big on the weekends and the days right before the trash was dumped. In our second month living there the trash was not picked up for over 2 weeks. You can't imagine how much garbage was in the area of the only dumpster. Electric bills are very high here. Our small one bedroom apartment averaged over $225 in the spring months long before it ever got hot. If you live downstairs be ready to hear everything your upstairs neighbors do! Parking is very difficult after 6pm. On the weekends don't even try to get a spot near your building! *************************The worst part about living at Spyglass is the manager Abby and office staff such as Megan. They do not explain the complicated lease terms upon move in. NO matter if you paid all your rent on time, left the apartment totally clean, and checked out early (like we did and didn't request or expect a refund) you'll be sent a $600 bill. And they will not give back your deposit. Abby makes no effort to call you on the phone or send the bill to a proper forwarded address when problems like this occur. Instead she is quick to turn you over to collections. ********************** Please be very careful when you rent here because the manager will do everything to make sure your rental history and credit history is ruined if you decide to move out. Not worth it! Pros: This complex is in a wonderful community of Mansfield that they are working to trash it's reputation. Cons: Management (Manager Abby and Megan) are unprofessional, rude, and misleading. more

Spyglass Apartments used to be a good place to live when it first opened, but this place has gone downhill faster than one could think possible. Noise, crime, parking, safety and poor construction are all major problems. The management is the worst! Pros: Location Cons: Everything else! more
