Avalon at James Island

I loved my apartment and community amenities when I lived here, but can only give a two star review because of certain situations I had with the management team. When I moved out I left my apartment in near-perfect condition, but the apartment held my deposit and stated they were doing so for "damages." There were a couple small marks on the carpet (probably dime-sized) in the bedroom, but nothing that was beyond normal wear and tear. As someone who has worked with various property management companies, I know how to leave an apartment in an acceptable condition along with the consequences of not doing so. On a few occasions when I emailed the management team with questions, they went around them and didn't give me direct answers. The apartments are beautiful, I loved the amenities, and I had no maintenance issues while I lived in the building, so there were many positives, but at the end of your lease, they will likely try to keep your deposit regardless of how your apartment looks. As a note, I moved out several months ago but was reminded to write this review after recently receiving communication from a debt collection agency regarding the cost of the "damages" I allegedly left.

Love love love it here! Management is very friendly, maintenance requests are fixed day of, best amenities, and they keep the community very clean! And the location is the cherry on top! Could not recommend this place more

Moving in was incredibly easy (even during the week of Thanksgiving). The staff answered all my emails and made sure I was able to access my apartment to move in and bring packages inside.

I had signed a lease at another apartment complex, and was supposed to be moving in, and the day of the entire thing went downhill. We couldnt move in because the entire unit was incorrect. I walked over here because it was in the area. I was in desperate need of a unit, and Lindsay in the front office was so kind and helpful. She walked me through multiple units and even allowed me to start the application on site. She was aware I needed to be in a unit the day of. I then met Daniel, the property manager, who helped me get into a unit while waiting for my roommate to finish her documents, because she was at work when all of this was taking place. I have never in my life experienced such kindness at an apartment complex. The move in process was incredibly easy and the apartment themselves are stunning and so far all appliances have functioned properly. I am so excited for my year here and am so thankful to the team that helped me make this my home.
