Griffis/blessing, inc. Reviews

Edit: Christina, a new property manager at Veridian at the Edge, reached out to me and was very attentive and reasonable. Made me feel much better about the situation and the state of the apartment complex I live in. While there wasn't much she could do on the rent issue, she tried and I did really appreciate the sincerity in her attempts over her first few weeks to work with me. I'd always recommend a property with managers like her. She gets five stars in my book. Happy to stay for that reason.

Times are tough with the current rental and housing market so, it's really hard to justify giving any company higher ratings who are renting out apartments. Especially considering their properties are probably at least double in value than they were half a decade ago, and without much value added to the units themselves.

I love my apartment! Love where I live! Just hopefully property owners can chill out with the rent jumps next time. Even if we're still below market, not sure how people are getting by.

Original review:
Ah yes. Upping rent to obscene levels for current and future tenants. Why? Because everyone else is doing it!

Tried talking to them about a pretty large jump in monthly rent on renew. Got ignored.

Cheers.

I have been complaining for MONTHS about the neighbor s pot smoking in their apartment and the management has done absolutely nothing. Security did nothing. I have called, emailed, left messages, visited the office. They tell me to call the police. To enforce the lease? So I feel safe living in my own apartment? Horrible.

The Griffis/Blessing team is a pleasure to work with. They share a common passion of top quality customer service and a dedication to their customers.

We've worked with Griffis Blessing for years and greatly appreciate the partnership we have with them. They have a high standard for service and they don't cut corners when it comes to maintaining their properties. It all starts with caring and they have a high capacity for it.

We have worked with Griffis Blessing for many years. They are a great partner and care deeply about their residents and staff.

I scheduled a tour at accent ,went to the tour which didn t happen after driving 12 hrs to get there was meet by this Brenda Gordon whom for some reason or another gave me a flyer for canyon stone apartments which after driving from Louisiana to Colorado with all my belongings the flyer stated that the Rent was under $1000 when I went online as they have you do to apply for the apartment after taking Triple the amount out of my account and charging me a pet deposit for my emotional support dog even after receiving all my paperwork it s a Shame the the company seems to be taking advantage of people the way that they do.. they caused me to be homeless and having to drive back to my daughter house in Virginia since my hometown had flooded..it s been a whole Month and I still haven t received the money that was taken out of my account..they falsely advertised theses apartment and when you apply and get approved they overcharge you.. I have receipts and text messages where I had been calling this Brenda Gordon and her not responding.. I even called their Corporate office and to this day over a month later I still haven t received my funds back

Retreat at Waters Edge Apartments, the Ghetto!
There are approximately 45 Apartments in each of the 6 Buildings in this Complex, Tons and Tons of Residents living in most of the Apartments which means Tons of Filth. However Griffis Blessing the Property Managment Company has a Cleaning Crew come through 1 time per week. This is not nearly enough! On top of the Once A Week Cleaning Crew they are contracted so they run through each building faster than anyone I've ever seen in the past. They clean NOTHING, the Laundry Rooms are Filthy Dirty, the Washers & Dryers in the Laundry rooms are ANCIENT and Broken Down and So Filthy Residents typically take their laundry to the neighborhood laundromat in fear of putting their laundry in the Disgusting Machines.
They claim this to be a Security Complex with Security Entrance Systems on all the Entrance Doors, however for the past 6 months the Front Entrance Doors have not worked properly and are typically unlocked due to the locks not operational. The New Fancy Phone Intercom System was installed Over 2 Months Ago and has never been operational, Griffis Blessing Managment Claims "It's out of our hands, we've done our part by telling the contractors" This is inexcusable when we pay HUGE Rent to live in a Security Building that this has been happening for the past nearly 3 months. Half the time the Doors to the Entrance are Unlocked, the other half of the time they are Locked yet you have to hope your visitors have a phone with them so they can call you so that you can haul yourself down to the lobby to let them into the building.
The outsides of the Buildings have been Repainted, yet it looks like we live in the Ghetto with Residents Storing Everything from Livingroom Couches, Recliners, Mops, Mop Buckets, and General JUNK Piled High, Enormous Stuffed Animals Hanging from Balcony Railings.
Stairwells are full of Filth, Have Not been swept or mopped in years, yes years!
Garages are Filthy Dirty and not free by any means so they should be kept cleaned and swept and power washed on a regular basis yet they are not. People that rent garage spaces are expected to take brooms out and sweep their own garage spaces if they want them clean. Doors to rental garages are not secured or locked and half the time the doors to the garages do not even shut or latch.
These issues and many more are given to the Griffis Blessing Onsite Management Office over and over and over again and we are told the same thing over and over and over again "It's out of our hands, we're doing the best we can with what we have." This response is Very Old and So Ridiculous to tell residents that are paying huge rent.
There are Section 8 Residents that sub-let their apartments to Drug Dealers and this has been brought to the Griffis Blessing Management Over & Over and they do nothing about it because they are getting guaranteed paid rent by Section 8 for the unit.
Elevators in buildings break down and Stay Broken Down for 21 Days, Griffis Blessing Management blames the Elevator Repair Company yet does not fire them and hire a new Elevator Repair Company, they just leave the Elevator Broken Down Not Operational for 21 Days and there are Residents that are in Wheel Chairs, use Walkers, and are Very Elderly that live on the 2nd & 3rd Floors and again Griffis Blessing Management just blames the elevator repair company yet DOES NOT offer any assistance to those Residents.
Sprinkler Systems on the grounds do not work so the grass IS NOT grass in some areas, it is Straw. Does the Maintenance Team ever walk the property and note these things and repair them? NO, No They Do Not!
Entrance Door Mat's were ripped out 6 Months ago and as you can see we have Simply Gorgeous Entry for our guests to experience.
Griffis Blessing Onsite Managment Team claims they are doing all they can, I must say they are a super nice onsite staff, However NOTHING GETS TAKEN CARE OF LIKE THEY PROMISE IT WILL!
I would Seriously Consider Signing Any Lease At Glenbrook Apartments with Griffis Blessing in charge, it is Simply Ghetto!!

I had the privilege of living on multiple sites managed by Griffis Blessing. They have treated me with respect. They answer all my concerns and address any issues in a timely manner. They will go out of their way to make sure I enjoy my home. Some experiences can be bad; however, the good experience always out ways the bad. Any charges are explained by the staff. I would highly recommend this management company.

Griffis Blessing has been great in every aspect, always helpful and kind to work with. 10 out of 10

Worst management ever! My mother rents from the Boulder Crescent Apartments and she has complained numerous times regarding homeless and items not being fixed in her home. I reached out to her manager, no response. I reached out to the managers regional, no response! I need the phone number to the owner of this company, her complaints are going to be heard one way or another!! Why have a regional manager if they can care less about their residents? Makes no sense!!
