I have lived at Brightleaf for a few years now and can say that overall, the living situation itself has been a positive experience. The maintenance team in particular is amazing and always quick to address any issues as they come up. My experience with the leasing management has been a different story, however. Having renewed my lease a few times now, I have noticed the rate keeps going up for my renewal while they continue to charge significantly lower rates on the same floor plans for new residents. After bringing this discrepancy up to management, they could not provide any justification and ultimately blamed it own their own upper management. I am leaving this review here to warn future residents about how exploitative this place has been on lease renewals, so keep it in mind if you are looking for a place you would plan to stay for more than one lease term.

Managrment is sub par at best. Moving in was a nightmare and they did not work with me at all. They are impossible to grt in touch with. Maintenance is fantastic however. Hard working, kind, and quick response time.
