Sparrows Point Townhomes and Apartments

I seriously LOVE it here! Zero pest problems, ever (see a few people saying this, opt in for pest control! Kelly is great and has sprayed my home monthly just because I like to keep up with my home! My apartment is super cozy and honestly this is hands down the BEST community I’ve ever lived in. The price is fair, the maintenance team is lightning fast (Randy & D — you two deserve a standing ovation!), and the office crew (Tara & Nick!) always helpful!! I just went to my first resident event at the HOA, which was awesome since I don’t know too many people in VA yet... met some amazing neighbors! This place has such a good vibe. Oh, and did I mention the SMART HOME FEATURES?! Total game changer.

Here's the truth about this place: ALL MILITARY AVOID Move-in condition of unit was dirty. Apartment was dirty when we received keys not "a little dust," but filth, stains, and clear marks it had not been professionally cleaned or turned over. Paint job was executed with all the professionalism of amateur, with uneven coats, streaks, and slop remaining on trim and fixtures. Even holes. • HVAC was out of commission for a month. We waited during Virginia heat ( my wife being 7 months pregnant) while they dawdled. No air conditioning for that time frame is completely unacceptable. Not to include humidity being extremely high after the fix. • Mold. We had mold showing up, and instead of real remediation, they did "band-aid" fixes that didn't address the root problem. •Terrible communication.

Did a transfer because I LOVED IT so much here. Office is great and maintenance is AMAZING! THEY ARE QUICK! A lot of comments about move out but my move out was easy. Did my walkthrough. Asked questions and cleaned my apartment before transferring to avoid cleaning fees. They do provide a sheet that displays all charges. Do your homework, its standard for moving out any apartment! 5 STARS EASY!

Update: I’ve been living here for about three weeks now, and while I will say the maintenance team is amazing and very responsive, I can’t ignore the ongoing roach activity in my apartment. I’m seeing 5–6 roaches within an hour, mainly in my bathroom, hallway, and kitchen. With kids and a pet, this has made settling in very uneasy and frustrating. The move-in process was smooth and easy, and I truly wanted to love this place. However, if the pest issue isn’t brought under control soon, I’ll have no choice but to take the next steps to move. I just want to give others a heads-up to be mindful when choosing where to live — great move-in experience doesn’t mean much if you’re constantly battling pests. If I see a change I will update this.

My move-in was very smooth. I really enjoy living on this property. Everyone is so very pleasant. Management is very friendly and focused on providing excellent service. The neighborhood is very safe and quiet.
