These people will give you the kind of nightmare stories you think couldn't possibly be true when you hear them. Do not think you are the exception.
If you move into an apartment with Beach Lane and miraculously have 12 months of bliss with no need to reach out to Beach Lane, great, you're very lucky. However, if you have a minor maintenance problem or worse, a major maintenance problem, you will be ignored and your life will become a living hell for the months that follow. Beach Lane does not care about your quality of life. They will not pick up the phone if you call and they have no sympathy for your apartment problems.
I remember finding this page on Google and thinking "well, only the people who have bad experiences write reviews, I'll be fine." That's often true, but I cannot emphasize enough what a huge risk you're taking signing on with these scumbags. They get away with murder because they rely on high demand, and no matter how many bad reviews/press they get, there will always be some naive 20something willing to shell out $1400 without thinking twice about it. If you're smart -- THINK TWICE. You don't want to get involved with these people.
