The real story

Most tenants describe a complex in serious disrepair where basic requests go unaddressed for months, management ignores legal notices, and residents resort to court action to force compliance. Staff turnover is constant, billing is unreliable, and pests (roaches, beetles) persist despite cleaned units. A handful reported helpful staff, but systemic issues dominate the experience.

Praised for
  • responsive staff member named Rita
  • fast repair when completed
Watch-outs
  • severe maintenance backlog and avoidance
  • sewage backups and water damage
  • pest infestation (roaches, beetles, fleas)
  • billing errors and hidden fees
  • unresponsive management and poor communication
  • no security gates or lighting
  • structural decay
poor-communicationslow-maintenancepest-problemsclean-facilitiesoverpriced-feesoutdated-units
Think twice if: Prospective tenants should investigate maintenance history and legal disputes before signing. Multiple reviews reference court orders, city complaints, and an owner with reportedly outstanding warrants in Texas.

Where it delivers

  • individual staff member (Rita) praised for helpfulness
  • repairs completed promptly when action is initiated

What to ask before signing

  • Supervisor Bailee Bench was described by one tenant as providing no help; prior managers Jessica Blanco, Jessica, Penny Sheetz, and Hailey mentioned in reviews
  • one tenant won a court case in March 2025 and obtained damages and rent reduction; complex delayed payment over 60 days
  • one building boarded up with sealed doors and windows
  • sewage flooding documented in kitchen and living room for 5+ weeks; city complained about grass uncut for year
  • pest issues include roaches, large beetles, fleas
  • water shut-offs occur monthly without notice

Common questions

What happens if maintenance takes a long time?
Multiple tenants report months-long delays even for emergency issues like sewage backups and non-functional AC. One tenant pursued court action; another waited over 60 days for a court-ordered payment. No guaranteed response time is documented.
Are there any documented billing issues?
Yes. Tenants report overcharges, unexplained fees added to rent portals, refusal to refund incorrect charges, and late fees for amounts owed. Management lacks clear documentation of charges when questioned.
What are the common maintenance problems tenants face?
Plumbing backups, sewage flooding, non-functional AC, water damage, pest infestations (roaches, beetles, fleas), broken appliances, loose fixtures, and lack of security lighting. Many requests are not followed up or only partially addressed.

Long-term residents praise Diana and Johana's personal attention and responsiveness, alongside affordable rents and move-in condition. Others report months of ignored noise complaints, slow maintenance, safety worries (vehicle theft, nearby gunshots), and leasing office delays that cost applicants time before rejection or approval notification errors.

Spur Canyon's 3.3 rating reflects a property in crisis. While leasing agent Jermaine earns consistent praise for tour friendliness and technician Brandon received credit for swift AC repair, nearly 40 percent of reviews are one or two stars. Residents report months-long waits for AC fixes in summer heat, repeated flooding, rotten wood falling outside, raccoons in walls, and roaches inside. Fees surprise tenants, management avoids accountability, and the emergency maintenance line does not answer. Multiple reviewers say the property is unsafe and regret signing leases. The complex is 50 years old and shows it. Exterior damage, water ingress, pest infestation, and lack of emergency response form the core complaint. One resident reported waiting four months for repairs after flooding on November 4, 2024, with no resolution as of June 2026. Another pregnant tenant terminated her lease after a two-week wait for AC in 93-degree heat. Residents say the advertising misrepresents the unit and location condition. Staff turnover has made management worse since a new manager arrived.

Cory's recent management and maintenance staff (Tim) have earned strong praise for responsiveness and professionalism, especially among new residents and those who have seen recent improvement. Serious infrastructure issues-summer heat failures, unresolved pest problems, closed amenities (pool, social area) despite repeated promises-frustrate established tenants and suggest maintenance backlog over quick fixes. Long-term residents report feeling deprioritized as the community prioritizes new move-ins. Hidden fees, sporadic security, and amenity hours that don't match resident schedules add to wear and discontent despite the friendliness of some staff.
