Testimonials

Me and my family have been here just over six months and we truly love it. The office staff made the application process simple and straight forward. They actually went far beyond what any other property managers were willing and able to do to accommodate our needs. The maintenance staff responds quickly and never hassles us or make excuses. They even respond after hours and weekends when necessary. It's peaceful and quiet here even on Friday and Saturday nights. Plus, Suson Park is less than 1

I had a accident and was put in a wheelchair and a walker and when I called the office she immediately said yes they would put a ramp up for me to get out of my apartment. The maintenance men here always ask about how I'm doing also. I never had a apartment complex go out of there way to help there residents and I truly appreciate them for the help.

I went to Suson Pines Apartments on the Monday before Thanksgiving to look for a place to rent, and I was able to move in the next day. The leasing process is comprehensive but organized and easy to navigate, and the professionals at Suson Pines Apartments were very helpful in answering any questions that I had. The leasing office offers many options and accommodations for leasing, and their online application makes it easy to choose.

I love living at Suson Pines. All of the staff are very professional and friendly and maintenance does a great job at coming out quick if something needs to be worked on, which is not very often. The apartments are nicely sized, with lots of closet space, a large walkout patio, updated appliances, and the grounds are very pretty and relaxing. I also like the fact that they are centrally located and very close to restaurants and businesses.

Everyone has different experiences and I would never want to take away from their own experience, however mine has been great since I have moved in. The staff has been accommodating and beyond helpful when it has come to my anxieties, from little questions, and to my bigger concerns. Sam has worked with me the most, and I can not express how she made what seemed like a scary and stressful transition into something peaceful and simple. Maintenance has been good to work with.
