What we found

Most residents praise the leasing team-particularly Airian, Priscilla, and Will-for attentive help through the application and move-in process, and the property itself for its clean, modern look and amenities like the pool and gym.

However, several long-term residents and recent applicants report serious issues: slow communication (taking 4+ emails for basic responses), management approving applicants for units already rented, pest infestations (roaches and ants), and inconsistent hallway maintenance. These problems suggest the business excels at first impressions but struggles with ongoing operations and accountability.

Praised for
  • responsive leasing staff
  • clean, well-maintained property
  • smooth move-in process
  • helpful office team
  • modern apartments
Watch-outs
  • poor communication and slow email responses
  • management oversight (unavailable units approved)
  • pest problems (cockroaches, ants)
  • hallway cleanliness and upkeep
  • unresponsive office staff

Think twice if: Consider elsewhere if reliable ongoing communication, pest-free units, and consistent maintenance matter to you; several tenants reported slow responses and cockroach/ant infestations.

44 South

4.0(302)✓ Google-verified

Most residents praise 44 South for exceptional staff and fast maintenance turnarounds. Units are modern and clean, amenities (pool, gym, study rooms) draw regular use, and the SoCo location puts downtown and highways within reach. Multiple residents named staff members like Jared, Fallon, Freddy, and maintenance crew Val, Dominic, and Philip as standouts. A minority report serious security gaps: car break-ins occurred repeatedly despite gate access, and the garage gate has malfunctioned for weeks. One tenant discovered an undisclosed $24 monthly convenience fee for rent payment through their Yardi system and felt misled. Noise and hallway cleanliness occasionally detract from the experience, though most residents overlook these against the overall property quality and team responsiveness.

Most residents find Bishop Momo a welcoming place to live, praising the leasing staff (especially Cristal, Kris, and Saiah) for going beyond a typical move-in, the quiet units, and the nearby walkable scene. Maintenance responds quickly when called, and community events happen regularly. The major complaints center on parking enforcement paired with a towing company residents call predatory, plus ongoing issues with hallway cleanliness and one reported black mold concern that residents felt was poorly handled. Some units face road noise from South Congress, and package theft is a recurring mention.

The leasing team earns consistent praise for helpfulness during tours and the signing process, with staff like Rashod, Miriam, and Diane singled out by name. Once moved in, however, residents face a stark divide: apartments themselves are well-finished, but maintenance failures and safety issues dominate complaints. Mold appears repeatedly, appliances break within weeks, and residents report the management becomes distant. Broken elevators, non-functional gym equipment, pool neglect, and lack of security (homeless individuals entering buildings, cars broken into) underscore a pattern of deferred upkeep despite amenity fees. Communication deteriorates sharply post-move-in: calls route through an AI system, emails go unanswered for days, and emergency maintenance is slow or unresponsive. Management's responsiveness to specific residents (one reviewer noted Rashod's urgent response to harassment) suggests selective attention rather than systematic care. The building itself appears divided in quality and security, with the south building cited as particularly neglected. For renters on a budget, monthly charges for non-working amenities compound frustration. Former residents also report difficulty obtaining proof-of-residency documents for future applications.
