Element 84

Living at Element 84 has been a terrible experience ; The condition of the unit when we moved in was gross and not deeply cleaned - the general dis-repair and lack of cleanliness and trash around the entire property / the abysmal condition of both the grass / flower beds with exposed piping from mulch running off - to the treatment from the staff / the condescending and unprofessional letters posted and blasted throughout the property threatening the removal of amenity privileges / ETC for the entire community because of the few that break the rules - the delayed or non responsive office. Not to mention the over 11% rent increase on just the base rent in one year (with an excuse about "inflation" - yet they can't maintain the property as-is) The entire experience has been poor. The property acts as a dorm for the Briggs & Stratton College ; as a result there as college students trashing about / being loud and generally making living at the property feel like a dorm. You can see the bus come and pick them up and drop them off daily M-F. As soon as we gave notice to vacate, the staff began constantly scheduling tours of our unit - I took time out of my day each time to be at the unit for each tour ; each time nobody showed up / or updated me with the cancellation. When we came a year ago ; we were told we could not tour occupied units - now they have flipped on that stance and make the final 2 months of your residency unenjoyable with constant tours of anyone off the street who wants to see the unit. The straw that broke the camels back was management's un-authorized entrance of our apartment to film a video of our home - luckily I caught this on our home film or I would not have known they violated our space. When discussed and told about how upset we were ; and what would be done - we were promised there would be no more in person showings until we vacated the property - a week later they began scheduling tours again against their word. Ultimately I have been very hesitant to write this review / or say anything at all as I fear retaliation from the management team. I will be updating this review after my move-out , to update on our treatment and the move-out process. Do yourself a favor and RUN far away from this property.

Element 84 is a pretty good place to live. I've lived here since May 2021 and have had a generally good experience. For the price and location it really can't be beat. That said there's been numerous issues with the elevators and garage doors over the past several months.
