Power Properties

It's interesting that the only ratings with any detail are the negative ones. It's not hard to make a few fake accounts on here or yelp to up the ratings.

But, if you're considering moving to one of their properties DON"T. They may look fun but having your AC go out in the summer? having maintenance take days to fix problems even if it means a giant hole in the ceiling?
If you don't mind that then good for you. They'll charge you thousands of dollars upon move out without giving you any LEGIBLE written description (a blurry iphone photo is extremely unprofessional and sketchy) of why you're being charged and will threaten you if you don't pay within a certain timeframe.
ENJOY!

This is absolutely the WORST experience I have EVER had with a property. Everyone in the office has no clue what they are doing and never solves any problems. They just give you the phone number for emergency maintenance. Whenever I spoke with the emergency maintenance they were furious that they just keep giving out his number for things that only THEY can deal with and said it was such a mistake to have a contract with these properties because of all of their issues. Everyone failed to let me know there was a cooler/boiler system ONLY prior to moving in. It is not on the lease (even though they tell you it is). When I moved in I had no blinds and they told me I would get them within a week. It has been 7 months and still nothing. I have made repeated phone calls and submitted maintenance requests and they put that the request was “completed” but there are still no blinds!!!! You can’t get in contact with anyone and no issues will EVER be resolved. It is WAY overpriced for the terrible location and terrible staff. DO NOT MOVE HERE if you like to get what you pay for because I can’t even stand to be in this sauna of an apartment with no AC in Texas. I have had several people step in to my unit asking if this is even legal for it to be this hot and stuffy, not to mention there are NO WINDOWS I can open!!!! Only a big one that you are not able to open where the sun shines in ALL DAY and makes it about 20 degrees hotter than normal because of NO BLINDS. Don’t waste your money with this property.

The people at Power Properties care about what they do. From the time I reached out to them on Craigslist, through my entire move from Arizona, to now they have been nothing but thoughtful, kind and ON IT.



My leasing agent Katie is amazing at what she does and very clearly an awesome person as well. Very mellow and easy to deal with but gets things done. When I contacted her about apartments she offered to pick me up the next day and showed me everything I wanted to see and more. I had only been in Dallas a couple of days, so not having to deal with traffic and getting lost made the experience much less stressful. She was also kind enough to show me around the vicinity of the apartments I was looking at (ie grocery stores, restaurants, yoga studios etc). I certainly didn't expect her to do any of this, she didn't have to, and it impressed me.



Before I had even decided whether or not I was going to live in one of their apartments, the people at Power Properties offered to store all of the stuff that I had brought out to Dallas so that my car wouldn't get broken into. Aaron, the Service Manager, literally unloaded my car for me and after I signed my lease he brought all of the stored items to my apartment. They even offered to let me stay in one of their furnished lofts while I was searching for a place. All of this is unheard of to me and I couldn't be more grateful.



When I moved in, Katie asked me what I needed to feel comfortable in the place. In a few days I had floor to ceiling curtains for privacy, a new window AC unit, two doors removed/fixed and an updated showerhead. She proceeded to follow up on whether all of these items were working out a few days later. I appreciate the follow-through that Power shows in their business and Katie is a shining example.



The timing of my move to Dallas was not ideal-- right around mid-late February during the ice storms. Please note I'm from southern Arizona Throughout this time Katie was checking up on me to see if I needed anything, if everything was ok with the apartment and even offered to take me to the airport when everyone was frozen in. Again, completely unexpected and above and beyond anything I've ever seen from an apartment.



I had the pleasure of interacting with Daniel Davis, the General Manager at Power Properties on several occasions and he is phenomenal as well. He seems to be constantly thinking about how he can make the properties safer and more attractive inside and out for the tenants. He didn't hesitate to ask what I thought about some of the company's policies, my take on what people want and how my experience with Power had been. Daniel pays attention to and cares about the little things that I think a lot of property managers miss.



On top of the people at Power being wonderful to deal with - I love vintage properties and theirs are badass. I looked at several other properties from various owners and none of them had the visual finesse that the Power properties had. Power obviously puts a lot of effort into making these wonderful old buildings convenient and stylish to live in while respecting and preserving their vintage charm. Some problems can be expected with vintage buildings but any issues I have experienced have been handled very quickly and I think that's all one can really ask for.



Overall I think Power Properties is a company built with good people who care about what they are putting out there into the world. For this reason I think they will continue to be successful and I would truly recommend them to anyone I care about.

My husband lived at 6011 Gaston several years ago and has always talked about how much he loved living there and how it was the most unique space in Dallas to live. Since I am a student at Baylor down the street, I recommended a couple of friends to go visit the property a couple of years ago and they told me they were disappointed that it was under construction and far from being finished. I felt bad because of the recommendation. I finally heard that they completed all the properties so my husband and I went to visit the same building he used to live in and we were blown away.



The courtyard and the apartments are some of the most beautiful and unique we have ever seen. The first thing we noticed was the new entrance and all the stainless steel trim they used. In the courtyard there is 20 foot tall arch cabana covered with vines, king size daybeds to lay on, all new outdoor furniture and a bronze angel fountain.



Congrats to Power Properties for upgrading their properties to a whole new level!!

My girlfriend got a job in Dallas so we're going to be splitting cities, LA/Dallas. We had to get a place fast and these guys have a lot of great buildings to choose from.



The only trouble was, most of the apts were rented. Luckily they had an opening and they got us an awesome place. The rental agent was super helpful, they even drove us around, because we're still getting used to the neighborhood, they even recommended a bunch of cool places in the area.



Pros: Very eclectic mix of lofts, apartments, houses, etc. Great neighborhood. loved the hisotoric mansions, trees and greenery. Price. I rented an apartment that looked like it could have rented for a lot more. Crowd: Seemed like a really fun community. Definitely youngetr crowd. Didn't see any kids.



Cons: Busy leasing office, had to wait 30 min to see a unit. Because all the buildings are in so many different neighborhoods, it took about 1.5 hours to see only 3 apartments. The styles of the places are pretty different, ranging from modern to more traditional, but all of it looked pretty cool.



No gym, but the agent told me there's a huge new YMCA that's about to open a few blocks away. I checked it out and it looks pretty good. It was just annoying that they did not have more units available. But I guess that means people like it here. It's only been a week, but we are loving it.

I Absolutely love it the best place I have ever lived !! The Staff is great, the Maintenance is always on time. the Community is great. the Location is awesome. 24 Hour Emergency Service cant get any safer and i just found out it has a doggie park now. I'm gonna have to purchase me a puppy

the pool is totally awesome i mean its always well kept the neighbors are super friendly couldn't ask for more

Power Properties is located in beautiful area with low crime rate with no disrespectful or noisy neighbors in a gated community. lavish hardwood floors that running thought out the loft.It even has a private park for me too walk my dogs. the pool is always clean along with the lawn and i am so glad to have brand new appliances and last but not lease the staff here is very accommodating to my each and every need

I moved in 2 month ago. So far great neighbors and experience

I have lived in lakewood for 15 years. Recently, I split from my ex and moved into 6011Gaston. At first, it was hard but great after I met some new friends. 6011 Gaston has a great vibe and has been great so far.
