Kingswood

Good for NDSU students!

The price and location of these apartment buildings were the deciding factors for moving in. My roommate and I are both students at NDSU, so the 60 second drive and less than 10 minute walk, along with pretty affordable rent, were appealing. It’s also nice to have designated parking spots, though one of our apartment’s spots has a large telephone/utility pole blocking about a quarter of the space. We’re lucky that I have a smaller car that can maneuver around it, but it’s still pretty difficult to avoid. We’re also lucky that we’re in the 1001 Kingswood building rather than the 1011 building, because those parking spots aren’t side by side; it’s one car in front of another for the same apartment, which just seems a bit inconvenient. Something that is a bit confusing however, is the maintenance for Goldmark. I’ve put in maintenance requests and called for updates week after week and month after month, just to eventually hear that my request was marked as completed when they were definitely not completed. This has happened several times, and I’m not sure how, but oh well. A second thing about their maintenance- we moved into these Kingswood apartments summer 2021. And almost every single time I’ve called the Luxford office for updates on maintenance requests that I’d put in weeks/months prior, I’m told that the reason it’s taking to long to complete the requests is because they’re trying to catch up from the busy summer 2021. I completely understood that from the months of June to September or October, but I have to admit that it’s difficult to understand that reasoning when they continue to tell me that in March and April of 2022. It seems like if I don’t take the time to repeatedly call the leasing office, the maintenance requests won’t be done. Also, we’ve had our water turned off twice with zero notice whatsoever, which I’ve called and left a voicemail about, but never received any responses? But in general, I do enjoy our apartment, the price and location!
