The real story

Reviewers describe a split experience tied partly to recent management changes. Some praise Hayden's leasing responsiveness and note that Clayton and Mackenzie have improved maintenance turnaround and communication. Others, mostly students, report a pattern of building-wide roach problems management refused to treat, slow or failed repairs (AC in summer heat, dishwasher for months), lost packages, broken security gates, and deposit charges arriving months after move-out. Current residents with responsive staff contact report quick fixes; longer-term residents and those unable to reach management cite frustration and feeling ignored.

Location near UT Arlington and furnished options draw renters despite the complaints. The gap between positive reviews citing staff by name and negative reviews about institutional failures suggests experience depends heavily on which manager and team members a tenant encounters, and which stage of the building's maintenance cycle they occupy.

Praised for
  • responsive maintenance team on current staff
  • strong leasing staff (Hayden cited)
  • responsive leadership (Clayton, Mackenzie improvements noted)
  • convenient location near UTA
  • spacious units
Watch-outs

Best for: Students with stable housing needs and strong communication access to property management.

  • Furnished apartment options available
  • Some staff members highly attentive (Hayden, Clayton, Bazara, Mackenzie cited positively)

Buffalo at Arlington

3.2(346)✓ Google-verified

Buffalo at Arlington draws strong praise for maintenance staff responsiveness and fresh renovations, with many students highlighting the proximity to UT Arlington and useful on-site amenities. However, the complex struggles with operational consistency: some residents report maintenance requests left unresolved while others are told they're complete, move-ins were chaotic with hours-long delays, and common hallways showed visible neglect and dirt buildup. Staff performance varies by department. Leasing team members like Anais, Jacob, Xen, and DJ earn repeated recognition for friendliness and efficiency. Maintenance standout Femi resolves issues promptly. Yet billing remains opaque, with residents citing unexpected extra charges, and management communication appears fragmented between the property and Cardinal Group oversight.

Tenants who stayed report strong connections to the property and consistently praise location, cleanliness, and staff like Christie, Adriana, and Cristy for quick responses. However, multiple reviewers describe severe pest problems, unanswered maintenance requests spanning months, aggressive staff behavior, and discriminatory conduct during leasing. The roach complaints are specific and detailed, with tenants noting they hired outside pest control and found visible infestation upon move-in. Some reviewers felt disrespected or belittled; one reported racial bias. The divide suggests vastly different experiences depending on when tenants moved in or which staff member they dealt with. Recent positive reviewers focus on location, design, and responsive management. Older one-star reviews detail systemic failures: an eight-month broken dishwasher, managers blaming tenants for pest issues, and a blonde manager described as rude and dismissive. Financial complaints center on unreasonable move-out charges (a $1,500 fee plus retained deposit for carpet damage) and alleged application fees. The pattern hints at either resolved problems or inconsistent standards between units and management shifts.

Center Chase Apartments offers loft-style units steps from UTA with in-unit washers/dryers and a strong property manager.
