Belmont

My sister and I went to look for apartments and townhomes, and as we were driving by we decided to stop in. We did not see an official website with information to tour. We went up to the leasing office and rung the doorbell and no one answered. We saw maintenance working at the other end and asked if anyone was in the office. The younger guy was very nice, but the older guy was rude and told us with an attitude to ring the bell to which I responded we already did. He said the lady should be in the office so I tried walking thru to get to the counter, but he told us to walk around from the outside again. When we got back to the door and rung it again, we could see him come around the corner and tell the lady to let us in. She was there the whole time, saw/heard us ringing, and didn’t open the door. I can’t recall her name but she has a British accent, has braids, and wears glasses. She greeted us rudely when we first walked in. I said we were looking for a 2/2 and would like to tour if you have anything available. She immediately started asking for my credit score and assumed it was lower than the requirement.
She was saying anything to get rid of us and didn’t bother pulling up any information or any available units. She even recommended us to look at St. Croix apartments in Lauderdale Lakes… She kept talking about HOAs and kept saying my sister understands and I don’t😂 I understand that there are private owners and some work with realtors and some leave the keys in a lockbox, but she didn’t pull up any information at all to try and look. She didn’t ask for our IDs or anything. She didn’t answer any of my questions and it was a rather irritating experience.
We were not welcomed and the atmosphere was not friendly or inviting. The staff is very off putting and even though my sister and I exceed the requirements we will no longer be looking here. The appliances and units are barely up to date and are not even luxury units for the staff to act like this. We went to view more modern, up to date, and luxury style apartments and were treated 100x better and actually able to view the units and property. Don’t assume someone’s income, knowledge, or credit score just by looking at them (we were dressed nicely by the way so I’m assuming it’s because of how young we look and the obvious). Reading some of the reviews it seems this is a recurring issue among many issues here. Needless to say, it was a blessing in disguise and we’ll take our money elsewhere.

Mr b nutty/ Sean director of operatives is the best. He’s ontop of things and on point. We were having issues with our car and he came to help within minutes 💯💯💯

The worst place to rent. They tow your car for everything and fines are ridiculous. The property management and the association simply horrible 😕

Do not try to move over here. I was trying to rent apartment 504. The owners had me sign a lease do background check pay the deposit and etc. which I had to do all over again with the hoa, made no sense anyways  I told the owners that I had two vehicles she said that was fine. Then when it was time to submit my application to the HOA a rude B by the name of Sasha said your car has two name on the registration I said yeah so it’s my car and my name is the first name so what if I had a co buyer, she said that the co buyer has to fill out a application even if he’s not going to live there, I’m like that’s ridiculous so he would have to pay $150 even if he won’t be living there? And if he gets denied I get denied. The apartment had a garage so I said ok take that car off I will just park it in the garage then the owners son Diego called me and said that was not a option after his sister already told me that was fine. They were very nice but didn’t understand their own hoa rules, wasted my time and money. I end up having to ask the owners for my money back and I lost my money for the application fee. Brenda the President for the Hoa  is unfair and needs to retire her rules are ridiculous. Happy I didn’t get the apartment. Over there is old and not upgraded anyways. It floods when it rains and they tow the cars. They work with on call. Also the owners do not know the updated hoa rules, she told me one thing and the hoa told me another. I lost $300 just on application fees alone. Don’t move at the Belmont.

If I could give NO stars I would !!

Enjoyed working with staff on continual maintenance of the property.

Do not rent. Rented 701 They don’t upgrade the apartment but keep raising rent. I touch out all spots and deep clean and they wanted to charge for full painting after living there seven yearsThey don’t want to return the your deposit when you move.
