What is the best website for accurate apartment reviews?

Sarah: What is the best website for accurate apartment reviews?
I am looking for apartments in the North Dallas (TX) area and I feel like every apartment I look at has the most horrible reviews ever. I get that some people have higher expectations of apartments, and that sometimes managers post “anonymous” positive postings. Has anyone found a site with reviews that pretty well reflected the apartments you looked at or moved in to? Just feeling a little overwhelmed right now.

I even use the Dallas police website to check on crimes statistics for a specific apartment. It will be a tedious job to keep searching. I suggest talking to “Apartment Locator” and define exactly what you’re searching for, what area and the maximum rental amount. “apartment Locator” services are free and will promptly provide you all information to make your decision.

I could say apartmentratings.com, but as an apartment locator myself let me just say that most (if not all) apartment review sites are basically worthless. I say that because, based on my experience, all you find are people venting about their most recent negative moment rather than providing a full picture of their overall experience (which I assume is what you’re looking for).

If you’re interested, I can send you a list of properties in North Dallas that are all above average and worth visiting, or feel free to browse our listings in general:

But feel free to reach out to me at [email protected] with any other questions. I’m only here to help!

Well I moved to Huston, TX about two months ago and what I did was not to pay much attention to apartment review sites. Rather I simple looked if the place was being kept up well and looked at the surrounding area. As long as they checked out and the place had the features I wanted in my price I was happy. The site i used to find my place was ForRent.com. I would highly recommend them, because I am so happy with the place I found. Good luck!!

Contact the BBB. I also asked people who lived at mine. If you drive through the parking lot you usually see at least one person outside
