  I would give it a 3 1/2 give or take. I’ve been a resident here for all my life, so a lot of the overall aesthetics and initial visuals. Don’t look too much different than they used to five, 10 even 20 years ago. Apartment didn’t look too well furnished and renovated. Floor was uneven, showerhead looked dingy, dirty, and looked like the piping wasn’t too well. I wish there was a little bit more of an emphasis on cleaning it up and making it more appealing and comforting, but, life goes on, I guess I will say though, Lami was GREAT. Seemed a little nervous, somewhat overwhelmed, considering a lot happened on the visit I took. But she navigated it as best as she could. I hope y’all find a way to keep her, or help her grow and improve in whatever way she needs to.

  Lami (leasing agent) & Tammy Ray (property manager) are magnificent! Both helped me with a towing situation where there was a glitch in the system resulting in my car being towed, but were able to get it released for free! Lami helped me find my new home with my girlfriend, and we’re blessed to receive her assistance! Thankful for both!

  Spark is, without a doubt, one of the worst apartment complexes I have ever dealt with. I’ve only been living here for one month and a few days, and I have already experienced enough issues to feel that other people deserve to know what they may be getting themselves into before signing a lease. The communication from the management and front office staff is absolutely horrible. There is a serious lack of communication, accountability, and professionalism. Important information is not properly explained to residents before or after move-in, and when problems arise, it feels like the responsibility is simply pushed back onto the resident. For example, my car was towed, and I was told that it was my fault for not providing information that I was never properly made aware that I needed to provide. If something is required of residents, that information should be clearly communicated before residents are penalized for not knowing about it. Trying to contact the office is another issue. The phone frequently goes straight to voicemail or to their AI assistant. The AI assistant says it will transfer you to a team member, only for the call to disconnect instead. When you are dealing with an important issue involving your home, vehicle, lease, or money, you should be able to actually speak to someone. What makes this experience even more frustrating is the lack of accountability. Instead of taking responsibility for poor communication or helping resolve issues, it often feels like residents are left to figure things out themselves. I am sharing this review because I genuinely wish I had known more about these issues before moving here. If you are considering Spark, please do your research, ask questions, get everything in writing, and make sure you fully understand every requirement before signing a lease. Based on my experience so far, I would not recommend Spark to anyone looking for an apartment. I have only been here a little over a month, and I have already dealt with more frustration than I should have had to experience this early into my lease. Save yourself the headache and seriously consider other options before choosing this complex.

  I still can’t unlock my own door without having my phone on me, which has caused more problems than it should. And my alarm continues to randomly beep FIVE times a day for absolutely no reason. At this point, staying at home on a day off has actually become a burden because I never know when the alarm is going to start going off again. The gym is only open during business hours, basically 9–5, and the pool is only available during the week from 9–5. So if you actually work normal hours, good luck using either one. I honestly don’t understand who these hours are supposed to accommodate. The only reason living here is convenient for me is because of my ill mother, who is somewhat stuck in this complex, so being close to her is important. Otherwise, I would seriously question why I’m paying what I pay to live here. At this point, I feel like I’m paying for convenience, but I’m not actually getting what I’m paying for. Between the constant alarm issues, needing my phone just to get into my own home, and amenities that are barely accessible during normal working hours, it’s honestly become more frustrating than it’s worth. This is crazy. I left this review yesterday and now my app isn’t working so that I can get into my home.
