Beware of Belle Parkland – Looks Can Be ...
Beware of Belle Parkland – Looks Can Be Deceiving I lived at Belle Parkland from 2016 to 2023, initially drawn by the schools for my kids. While the landscaping is beautiful, the safety and green surroundings were overshadowed by serious issues with the new administration.
The buildings are old, and mold is a major problem. I experienced severe mold growth in a closet due to structural issues with the building’s roof. Mushroom come out on the wall inside the closet one of the rooms. Despite having renters’ insurance and hiring a specialist who confirmed the walls were 100% wet, Belle Parkland refused to take responsibility. Instead of fixing the problem, they sprayed Clorox and sent someone to clean the carpet—who also stole my son’s headphones!
I lost $3,000 worth of belongings, including my kids’ clothes, shoes, and my karate gear. My family’s health also suffered, with lung problems caused by the mold. The management, especially Karen and Dakota, was dismissive and unhelpful.
On top of that, I was charged $173 after moving out for leaving one mattress behind, even though I left the apartment in excellent condition. I also paid $138 for a closet mirror I was told I could remove.
Belle Parkland cares more about painting the buildings to look pretty than addressing serious internal issues like mold, which is dangerous to your health. If you’re considering living here, think twice and be prepared to face the same nightmare I did. I have proof of the mold and how poorly it was handled.
