Hi-Vine Apartments, west-lafayette-in

literally the worst management. my apartment flooded and they made a racist comment asking if we were US citizens when we went to the office and asked for help. blamed us for leaving the apt and not answering when we left since it was completely soaked? Also blamed us while we were on break but we set our temperature to the normal temperature at 70. Wasn't even going to help us relocate AT ALL during the period when the floor was soaking but instead yelled at us for ruining their equipment in the garage below us? (instead of the fact that their pipes burst because of how old the apt is). The entire apt was carpeted btw and only offered to put a bunch of fans to try and dry it (not the fact it def was molding). Only offered a diff apt unit after continuous argument. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

If I could put 6 stars I would ! The service is remarkable. Maintenance is done quickly and responsively. Everyone in the office is a pleasure to deal with, especially Niko and Jerry who demonstrated professional skills when I needed help understanding how the washing machines work. Two years ago I tried working with the Banana people (Granite) and they were rude.

Look I know there aren’t many options, but please go anywhere else. I lived here two years because i had no choice. If you do don’t choose here. 1. They have not cleaned their washing machines out in ages. I decided to wash my clothes in them and got rust stains on my clothes. 2. They do not clean the apartments before you move in. There was black mold completely covering the toilet when we moved in which came off when I cleaned it. 3. The staff is extremely rude when you have a problem. I had a question for staff about the lease and she proceeded to ask me if I could read. 4. The heat in the apartment went out for a few extremely cold days. The apartments gave us space heaters which racked up our electric bill to way more than usual and did not offer reimbursement. 5. This one might be the most insane one. There was a weekend we smelled gas in the apartment. We called the emergency number twice and they ignored us both times and said there’s no gas in the apartment. A car in their storage that was not a residents was leaking gas and the gas fumes filled our apartment for an entire weekend. I eventually had to sleep somewhere else because it got so bad. Absolutely horrid experience. They take advantage of the location because it is not worth the price. They are greedy.

I have loved every minute of my experience with Weida Apartments! I have never had an issues with the maintenance and the front office is extremely helpful and welcoming. I was so nervous and intimidated by the renting process, but every single person I talked to reassured me and helped me meet every one of my requirements. I moved in this year, and my main concern was having a nice kitchen due to food allergies. 350 S. Chauncey Ave has fully remolded rooms that are extremely modern and affordable for a college student - I would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a beautiful space on a budget.

Downright predatory, required all 4 of my roommates to pay a $50 application fee each, refused to give it back after they failed to mention the property had no AC, Dishwasher or washing machine for $700 a month. Not to mention they charge you an extra $250 if you want that 4th roommate to join. SCAM, SCAM, SCAM, stay far away as possible. You can tell they are just a money hungry company when even their realtors drive 90 thousand dollar cars. Update: While I do appreciate the response especially in a timely manner, the problem with the property was not proving that we had 4 (with relation which we did), the problem was it wasn't mentioned until after we saw the place and our application was approved that we were told there would be an additional fee for a fourth person. Mind you we didn't ask about it because we wouldn't think there would be a fee like that, but I think it was wrong that weida wasn't upfront about it. So to note, it was not advertised properly and that's fully on purpose because you guys are a money hungry machine
