PLEASE READ -- Clearly all of these most recent reviews are a sad attempt to rebuild their image in the ATX real estate scene. Whether paid by 512 to write bogus reviews or the reviewers are relatives of the owners, please do not be deceived by 5 stars. After finally being let out of my lease in early 2014, other companies asked me about my horror story and simply said, "I'm guessing this was with 512 Realty?" During my stay with 512 Realty, I experienced the following: My ceiling collapsed in my bathroom 3 times My kitchen flooded My power outlets in the kitchen were broken and "unable to be repaired" My fridge broke, costing me over $100 in rotten, fresh food while the fridge took nearly a week to be fixed MY AC unit broke Cockroaches littered the bathroom Mold grew on the popcorn ceiling - which 512 refused to fix The dishwasher broke RATS infested the entire unit, eating their way through my food and giving me RINGWORM ... The list goes on and on. Additionally, 512 IGNORED my explicit requests to please NOT allow random repair crews to enter my property WITHOUT my permission (this is something I not only emailed my apartment manager, but would mark in the box provided through their "tenant portal" when submitting a request). You can imagine my surprise to come out of the shower to find an old man in my living space, unannounced, who clearly heard the shower running and decided to stay. After threatening to sue 512 and gaining legal representation for my horrible living conditions (rats and live rat traps LITTERED my living room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. I was expected to simply sleep in bed, and ignore the sounds of rat's heads being smooched in the adjacent room), 512 finally let me out of my lease. I was left with copious amounts of ridiculous fees and "microwave removal cost -- $75". Indeed I did purchase my own microwave (it was not provided), and I had forgotten to take it with me upon my exit. Out of curiosity, when I revisited my old apartment later, I saw my unit became the show apartment for the complex. Through the window, in the exact same location, I saw my microwave - complete with its off-white color, askew buttons, and red stain from nail polish on the front door. You're welcome for the free microwave, assholes. HONESTLY PEOPLE, I know that you're looking for an apartment and you're desperate and you think , "hey, the new reviews look good maybe they changed management", I promise you: they didn't. See through a bad PR attempt to improve their image: 512 is run by a bunch of arrogant, morons.
