The real story

Despite a convenient location near UTA and Downtown Arlington, 101 Center struggles with tenant satisfaction across maintenance, billing, and management responsiveness. Reviewers report persistent pest problems left unfixed, maintenance requests marked resolved without action, and difficulty reaching staff through phone or email.

Staff performance varies sharply: some maintenance technicians earn praise for quick, respectful work, but overall management frustrates residents with billing discrepancies, lease-signing tactics that leave tenants worse off, and a perception that concerns are dismissed. Multiple residents document pest issues lasting months, parking garage security failures, and lost packages. Those seeking quick, hands-on support before move-in should look elsewhere.

Praised for
  • Helpful maintenance staff on specific requests
  • Convenient location near UTA and Downtown Arlington
  • Spacious units with covered parking
Watch-outs

  • Slow or non-responsive maintenance and management
  • Billing errors and deceptive charges
  • Poor communication via phone and email
  • Disruptive noise and early-morning lawn maintenance

  • Move-out charges disputed; deposit recovery frequently contested

Buffalo at Arlington

3.2(344)✓ Google-verified

Buffalo at Arlington offers apartments blocks from UT Arlington with modern amenities that appeal to many students. Yet the experience is drastically split: those who navigate move-in smoothly praise clean units, responsive staff by name, and facilities like the rooftop pool and fitness center. The overwhelming complaint is catastrophic move-in chaos, with hundreds moved simultaneously, hours-long key delays, and units arriving uninhabitable (roaches, broken windows, dirty floors). Staff turnover and communication breakdowns compound these issues, with residents reporting unresolved maintenance and unclear billing practices. Management struggles appear structural rather than occasional. Reviewers note understaffing during move-in season, non-functional fingerprint scanners forcing unsafe door-propping, and a disconnect between front-line staff goodwill and backend systems (Cardinal Management handling billing disputes). Charges for damage not caused by residents and lack of proration for mid-month arrivals frustrate cost-conscious students. The 49% five-star / 44% one-two-star split reflects two sharply different realities: smooth arrivals versus logistical collapse.

Liv+ Arlington

3.8(624)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Liv+ lures students in with a polished showroom and friendly leasing staff like Calvin or Cassandra, but many who move in face a harsh reality: roach-infested units, dirty fixtures, broken furniture, and water-marked walls nowhere close to the tour experience. Maintenance responds quickly when called, and some team members (Calvin, Josh, Abigail, Quay) earn genuine praise for patience and professionalism. However, office communication falls apart after lease signing-calls go unreturned for days, billing errors are hard to dispute, and fees for early move-in or paid valet trash feel arbitrary. The office manager Karen has made residents feel dismissed and disrespected when raising legitimate concerns. For students, the furnished rooms and campus shuttle appeal, but the gap between promise and delivery, combined with ongoing pest battles and communication breakdowns, leaves many wishing they'd chosen The Arlie or Campus Edge instead.

The Arlie

Tours are consistently praised for friendly staff like Musab, Daniela, and Genesis, and proximity to UTA is a genuine draw. Residents report a marked decline in property upkeep, management responsiveness, and problem-solving over recent years, with pervasive roach issues, grimy common areas, and surprise fees dominating complaints even from those who initially found the place liveable.
