Oaks of Lakeville

Having been in outright legal battles at previous apartments- this has been the best move me and my wife have ever had. We've been here a little over a year and it's shocking how consistently management actually does their job. Jennifer is great, well for for the career. Maintenance crew (especially the guy I see the most, I think his name is Angel but I could be wrong- that might be someone else) is absolutely amazing. Reactive, quick to fix issues, and they don't act like you're bothering them for asking for those things. They'll even give a hello in passing and sometimes get into a conversation. Just all around nice people. Lakeville isn't my personal favorite type of neighborhood but the area is nice. Fairly low crime in my experience.

Jennifer was SO amazingly helpful with me getting my beautiful apartment. She knew I was operating with some urgency, and did all she could to make sure I was able to secure my new home and move in a timely manner. The grounds and hallways, laundry area, etc are well-kept, clean and the building is quiet and welcoming. I couldn't be happier!

They have a no warning tow policy for tenants. If your tire goes flat overnight, you will get towed with no warning. If your pass falls off, your tire goes flat, or your tags/plates expire they will tow with no warning, and no notification as to where your car went. My pass fell off my mirror, and my car was not there the next day. I had to call 911 to locate it. Management made it clear that they did not care when I raised the issue. The lot is not busy, so not sure if they're working with the towing company or what. Easy solution here is to leave parking tickets or notices 24 hrs before towing, which I suggested. If any effort were put forth to fix the issue, I wouldn't be leaving this review, but here we are. Laundry room is nice, but you cannot simply pay for laundry, you have to use

The new property manager, Kristen, is phenomenal! In the couple months she's been there things have noticeably started to change. My daughter and I appreciate how quiet it typically is in that neighborhood, and it's nice to be within walking distance of downtown Lakeville and bike/walking paths. If you are looking for a more updated apartment, The Oaks would not be for you, but it provides us with everything we need!

Lived here for 4 years, and I DO NOT recommend renting here. Current property manager does not handle any complaints, she just expects you to live with it no matter how bad it is. Place is riddled with section 8 renter's which really drags down the property with not so good people. It is not quiet at all if you face the court yard, too many people use the playground as a babysitter for their screaming kids. The good reviews you see are because they offer an incentive like a gift card or Thanksgiving dinner if you write a positive review, they will put your name in a drawing. The amount of rent I paid is way more than what they are offering for new renter's, so beware, your rent will increase every single year. And if you commute for work, just know it takes them forever to get the pa
