“I have lived at Flora for about 3 years. I have loved everything about this community from the moment I stepped foot on Flora Ave.! It is quiet, secure, very well maintained, pet friendly, and the neighbors are lovely. The team here is top-notch. The location is perfect; close to downtown (less than a mile) but not in downtown itself.
Joe and Sam (maintenence team) are wonderful; they respond so quickly to requests, and they make sure everything is done well. Just today, my handle broke off my sliding glass door (it gets lots of use), and I put in a maintenence request through the resident app. Within the hour, the job was complete, and Sam even brought in a package that was at my door for me. He texted with me to communicate that everything was fixed, and that my dog was well behaved while he worked ?. Sam really goes above and beyond!
My previous dog who passed away in the spring, as well as my newly adopted dog, love the dog run to get out those zoomies! It’s so convenient to have the dog wash station here as well.
I’ve made friends with quite a few neighbors from socializing at the dog run, through the community events that management puts on, or hanging by the well maintained pool when it’s warm.
If you’re looking to rent a home, Flora is well worth checking out! I cannot say enough good things about my home. ❤️”

“Deeba is wonderful to work with! She is very kind, personable, and on top of any issues that may arise. I have lived here for going on 5 years, and there is a very good reason why we stay. If there has ever been any issues with our place, the office has always been proactive and gets it handled immediately. Danielle and Taliaya (I’m so sorry for the misspelling) have also been wonderful to work with as well. Christian is a great maintenance person, making sure all of the homes are safe and working properly. Everyone that works here has always been very polite and professional, and they always try to do everything in their power to make our lives easier.

Overall, the property and the staff are great, and we are renewing our lease to stay here for another year. Thank you Plum Tree for making our living experience seamless and easy!”

“This place has honestly been a life saver, the price and location is amazing, the entire staff is super helpful their maintance team of Cruz, Zimeri and Natalie have been instrumental in our move and making sure that our comfort needs are met”

“Jesus is BOMB.COM!!!! He was quick and efficient. Jesus saw small things that needed to get fixed while repairing what was on his list and fixed them...WHO DOES THAT!! Jesus does...”

“Shaun, Royia and the whole team at Canyon Creek Apartments have been fantastic. My experience touring was very personable and professional as was the rest of the process moving forward. I felt very confident knowing what to expect when moving here thanks to the valuable insight provided by Shaun during my move-in tour. I have also been very impressed at the quick response times they offer to any inquiries. Definitely recommend!”

“Marshall R. gave an amazing tour! He was kind, informative, and easygoing. He informed us of their community events, and even offered us food because he was hosting one that day. Great community, can’t wait to join.”

“I move. A lot. So, I've lived in my share of apartment buildings. 1200 Lakeshore is, by far, the best managed building I've lived in. Everyone who works here is the best. They know the residents and their pups. Mrs. Hudson misses her neighbor, Christiana and her daily ear rubs. Maintenance is fast and seamless. The management is top-notch. They have events and doughnuts for morning commuters every once in a while. The front security staff are friendly and professional and the building is super secure. Proximity to BART and living on Lake Merritt is amazing. The spaces are large and open. The residents are also fantastic. Say hi to Maya the bulldog if you move in. She loves some love.Now, not everything is always perfect. The building is amazing, as I said, but the noise is a thing. I'm a city person so the sounds of a city aren't new to me. The units facing 1st Avenue are NOISY. If this is something that doesn't bother you, then you're golden. If you're sensitive to that, opt for a higher floor on the lakeside. It's in Oakland. There is crime. Like all cities. Don't complain about it after moving in and then blame the building management. Due diligence on your part makes life better.Yes, I really lived here. No, I'm not paid nor friends with the management or ownership. It's just a great place.”

“Mandy and Fernando quickly arranged a time to address a few minor issues in my apartment, including replacing a light. Everything was left clean, and I especially appreciated that they double-locked my door when finished.”

“3 1/2 stars. I purchased a condo here last September. All and all, I'm quite happy living here but somethings have surprised me, considering the cost of the units and the high cost of the monthly HOA fee. As another reviewer here mentioned, cost wise, you should really consider whether it is better to buy or rent here.

In general, this is a building built in 2001, and the units reflect that. Both the bathroom and kitchen have lower end cabinets and fixtures. Due to this, if your used to something a little more high end, you'll most likely have to go through the process of applying to the HOA for replacing these. It's not exactly turnkey.

Another thing that surprised me was the antiquated/outmoded heating system (there is only heating). It's something that was installed, in each individual unit, when the building was built. It's a one of a kind system that's not easily replaceable. There are no instructions/manuals available for it. It's very expensive to run (about 3-times the cost of my previous heating bill, prior to moving here). Kind of crazy for a 900 something sq ft condo.

Then there's the units 7-smoke detectors, 3-hardwired. What the what!? Trust me, it's not at all fun when one goes off as it takes forever to figure out which one it is. I was told by engineering that for the hardwire ones, the whole unit has to be replaced (at my expense).

Also, when the building was originally built, it would have been great if they had installed a water block off for each unit. Whenever any unit has a plumbing repair/upgrade, the water for all the units need to be shut off for 3 to 4 hours.

I really expected a more high end unit and experience.

There are a couple of engineering guys on site, but you quickly learn all that they don't do, as far as the units are concerned. These guys are primarily here to deal with the building itself.

The front desk staff is great. It's always a pleasure interacting with them and they are very customer service oriented.

The main attraction to living here, for me, is being on the lake, with all that has to offer, feeling safe living in this secure building, and how well the building is maintained.”

“I was a tenant last year. The on-site managers were amazing. They responded to my emails quickly and tried to accommodate my needs asap. Also, they tried to make the place very cozy. They decorated the halls and kitchen for each major holiday. The only thing that sucks is that one of them is a Clippers fan.”

“Ky Thompson was absolutely amazing during my tour at The Logan! From the moment I arrived, she was welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic about helping me find the perfect home. She took the time to answer all my questions, provided detailed insights about the property, and made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Her professionalism and friendly demeanor truly set her apart. If you’re looking for a top-notch leasing experience, I highly recommend working with Ky.”

“I would say that Sarah Date is the best, most responsible, and most knowledgeable complex manager I have ever encountered in any of the apartments l've lived in. Additionally, Anthony is truly the best handyman in the entire complex-reliable, skilled, and consistently exceptional in the quality of his work.”

“I had a great experience touring the property. Adriana was friendly, knowledgeable, and made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. While I’m specifically looking for a 2-bedroom apartment and none are currently available, I was very impressed with the community and would gladly revisit if one becomes available.”

“I’ve lived in this apartment complex for 3 years. I want to share the improvements I noticed since the new management took over. I recently had a leaking dishwasher. After I emailed the manager, they responded quickly, sent a handyman, and replaced it with a new one shortly after. Really appreciate the fast service!”

“We’re moving our daughter in next month and want to thanks Priscilla for all her help and guidance through everything. We met with the maintenance supervisor and he also was able to show us around. Thank you and we look forward to visiting our daughter as much as we can!”

“Rowena was very welcoming and efficient in showing us several units; so far, it's a nice location, good maintenance crew and I like my apartment over playground, pool area and gym. Parking space is located for easy access and departure.”

“Horrible place to live.Roaches everywhere.parking is terrible.They have constant problems with leaking water heaters and pipes .Dangerous mold growing in the walls of apartments and they dont do anything to fix it.”
