Soleil Blu Luxury Apartments

This is a wonderful community! We’ve been here a month and the office staff and residents are so nice. I love the fun activities they provide here for residents like food trucks, doughnuts, the waffle bar, and contests. It’s great to walk around the grounds in the morning or evening because it’s so peaceful. Also, we rented here without prior history of renting from an apartment complex and had no problem getting in.

DO NOT APPLY IF YOU DO NOT HAVE RENTAL HISTORY FROM AN APARTMENT COMPLEX! As we all know prices are raising in rent and I understand that, but what Soleil Blu Luxury Apartments is doing is misleading customers to apply for these apartments while leaving out information as why they wouldn’t be approved for a $300 deposit which is what they advertise deposits start at. I toured the apartment complex at the end of May and was told that the approval process would take 48 hours and that because I would be approved for an employer discount that they would waive my application fee. They encouraged me to apply due to increasing prices but didn’t advise me what circumstances may lead me to a higher deposit or disqualify me. I paid a total of $300 for two applicants and a holding fee. I went back and forth multiple times with the leasing staff with what they were missing and they would continuously dodge my questions when I asked what email they were sending my employee verification too and where they were sending rental verification too (proof can be provided). I provided my two most recent homes I lived in with private landlords and when I contacted those landlords personally they said they had not received any rental verification requests. It wasn’t until I told the leasing staff this they decided to send the rental verification forms after about a week of processing. No where on the application does it state they need a certain amount of years of rental verification/history or that it had to only be apartment complexes they approve for rental verification. In the end I was quoted a $3884 deposit because my co-applicants credit was “low” and that we did not have enough rental history. Assuming that the apartments they did contact from 2013-2016 did not respond to them as management has changed since then. Nothing in our credit history states that we have had an eviction or broke a lease and they wanted $5587 upon move in date for a 2 bedroom 2 bath because of this. When I disagreed to pay that amount and asked what would be my refund for not accepting the offer (thinking $100 would be refunded since it is technically suppose to be waived) they stated nothing would be refunded because I did not accept the offer. People need to know that this is happening because if I was advised they do not approve of private rentals as rental verification I would not have applied. And although I do have rental history with other apartment complexes because they did not respond to their requests I must pay the price. I can only imagine how many people they are either swindling $300 from or even $5000 during desperate times. In the years we’ve done renting and the process for it we have never been asked to pay this amount for our previous apartments and homes we’ve rented and when I mentioned it to the manager Kristalina she laughed and stated “well times have changed”. *UPDATE 06/14/2022* They state that I was aware of the high deposit? I was advised by the manager that I can do a payment plan for my deposit but was never given an option after that discussion just an email stating I owed $3884 by June 10th, shows lack of proper communication. I was contacted on May 31st to bring to my attention that the leasing agent contacted two separate apartment complexes but never the private owners. When I communicated with the private owners to see if they received communication from Soleil Blu on June 2nd they stated they never received anything. That’s when I brought it up to leasing staff who only sent a communication to one of the private owners I rented from and I have proof of that communication. So for you to say I don’t have enough rental history when you only communicated to ONE rental reference makes no sense and because you did not receive negative or positive feedback from previous apartment complexes but you see I rented from them from your report, now I have a higher deposit because of this. Make that make sense. Do better and stop taking peoples hard earn money during a housing crisis.
