What we found

Jessica, Arleen, and the maintenance crew earn consistent praise for community events, responsiveness, and keeping grounds clean. Residents value the spacious units and long-term stability the property offers.

However, multiple reviewers report robberies, break-ins, and zero visible security presence; others cite cockroach infestations, dark parking areas, and management's refusal to share footage or resolve maintenance complaints. The wide split between five-star and one-star reviews reflects a property serving committed residents alongside those facing serious safety and pest concerns.

Praised for
  • responsive and helpful staff (esp. Jessica and Arleen)

Watch-outs

The property draws praise for its modern apartments, comfortable layouts, and standout staff members who go above and beyond. However, systemic problems undermine the experience: inconsistent communication from the leasing office leaves residents frustrated, trash accumulates across grounds despite the luxury positioning, and advertised amenities like the pool remain closed for months. Those considering a move should insist on written confirmations and expect to advocate for themselves.

Most residents praise the maintenance crew's quick response times and a welcoming leasing team led by Maria, Sean, and Lisa who guide the rental process with care. The pool and gym stay clean, units are modern and spacious, and the vibe is quiet and inclusive. However, some note the property markets as luxury but delivers basic finishes and amenities. A few complaints surface: front desk rudeness on one tour, gates that don't lock, and parking or trash slowdowns. The divide between glowing testimonials and budget-conscious skeptics is sharp and worth understanding before you move.

Cedar Heights draws praise for its new, well-maintained interiors, generous amenities (pickleball courts, pool, dog park, fitness center), and a handful of exceptionally attentive staff members, particularly Jessie and Mary. The peaceful setting and convenient Southeast Austin location appeal to residents seeking tranquility. However, thin walls and ceilings transmit neighbor noise and late-night disturbances, and management responsiveness is inconsistent. Some residents have encountered dismissive leasing agents, while others report months-long delays in elevator repairs and unanswered emails, particularly during move-outs. Build quality on fixtures and cabinetry feels basic for a luxury property. New residents and those on lower floors generally report positive experiences. Prospective tenants should ask specifically about current building maintenance issues and test the leasing office's responsiveness before signing, especially if noise sensitivity or reliable maintenance are priorities.
