Info on Apartments in F/M

[Grr]

Curious since so many of you have been residents of the different buildings up there, are there any particular buildings to avoid or look into? 2 bedroom up to $700/month and nothing shitty (<500/month).
I know everything up there is basically owned by Goldmark and some of you have had problems with them as well, but there isnt many other options for a quality building. Basically anywhere in the metro area is fine. Lets hear it!

stay away from goldmark. There are plenty of properties across fargo that arent managed by goldmark. I have rented from Valley rental and did like them, Alerus financial was alright to rent from as well, but i dont think they do property management anymore. My friends have rented from Skaff and liked them as well. If you find a place with a 99 dollar deposit be prepared that more than likely you wont get it back. And if the apartment is behind the kmart area, stay away, its pretty "dark" and plenty of crime back there.

thats the kind of info im looking for, just gonna throw it out there as well, but NO FUCKING JAWAS! Ill move if them fuckers move in next to me

Definatley dont want to live off of 32nd ave s, by innovis hosiptal then. might as well as call that area "little bosnia".

[RidinRails]

Theres bosnians living in just about every apartment building in fargo nowadays.....so good luck finding one without them, unless your willing to waste alot of money on a spendy apt.

IMHO, thats not a waste at all, sounds like a good option. I have no problems paying +700/month to not have undesireables around me

[Grr]

btw I just looked into the valley rental units and they are on my list, I liked the Central Park floorplans and most of you guys live on amber valley anyway

Amber fields is great. Managed by property resources group. A 2 bedroom is 680 a month. 2 bath, large double garage, heat paid, washer and dryer in unit. Nice buildings. Not a through street so very little traffic. North of 94 behind petro.

Goldmark is not understanding, but honestly, they get shit taken care of right away. Just get a professional cleaning company clean your place and you'll get your deposit back. They aren't impossible to deal with, you just have to be damn near perfect. It sucks living there after you put your notice in tho, they will call you once, knock once, and walk in. Not real convenient when you're fucking.

I've been with Property Resources Group for over 3 years now and no problems.
I was in Amber Valley over by Pracs and my only gripe with that area was getting in and out of the area in the winter. I think those were cheaper than Central Park when I was looking.
I moved down to Osgood (also managed by PRG) to get a 2 stall with a 1 bedroom. Apartment is a little rougher than AV but otherwise no real complaints.

PRG was always the cheapest of the newer apartments when I looked.

Dakota Park and Park Avenue are/were really nice. I'm pretty sure Park Avenue is mostly the older crowd.

I'm in the same area Dubbsy used to live in and I'm really liking it so far. Managed by JM rentals, rents a little high so I haven't seen any jawas yet but there is always one or two. They have two properties just south of the softball diamonds in between 42nd and 45th, one is Stoney Brook I think and I'm in Woodstone. The only thing I pay for is electricity, and cable if I wanted it, internet is free, and there is a washer and dryer in every unit and everyone gets a big 2 stall garage.

heard nothing but good things about Prarie Property Management. I can attest that the majority of Goldmark apartments I have lived in were managed very poorly.
