Jun 2019: Just moved in and I am so pleased! The staff is incredible. Rosemary feels like an awesome friend who’s always got my back. Same with Eric. Even Katie the maintenance head is fantastic. The apartment we moved into was a bit behind schedule as far as cleaning and repairs from the previous tenants and they made sure not only were we reimbursed, but the repairs were quick.
I’m gathering most of our neighbors are new tenants, and seem as pleased as I am with the complex. It’s clean, the woods surrounding the property are peaceful, and the only dig I can think of is that parking is tight. I drive a small car so it’s nothing for me.
All and all? I totally recommend this place. Affordable, comfortable, and really just feels like home. Review from Google Nov 2018: Neighbors Dogs barking for hours all hours. Neighbors leaving food, beer bottles after charcoal grilling on wooden balconies. Cars with flat tires, smashed front ends etc in lot for 2 months and never moved. Refrigerator backordered broken parts...Only been here a couple months Will be moving at end of lease
Update: a month later still not resolved :(((( Review from Google Jan 2018: Take your money and yourselves somewhere else! This apartment complex is extremely old. Ceiling was like it was going to collapse in any second. Floor was old and badly damaged by water or something. A/C constantly acted up.... the unit had gaps between windows and visual gaps around doors (the unit gets flooded consistently in heavy rain) ; therefore, the unit can never be heated up in winters(Likewise in summer you can’t cool the unit). Not to even mention, my KUB bill went up to 300 dollars/month. Beware they are extremely non-responsive (Won’t answer calls, emails etc in a timely manner). You could have a broken item reported and they don’t come by and fix until weeks later. Roaches, ants, SNAKES, all kinds of insects are crawling in hammond units. just beware... I wish I could give 0 star... BEWARE THEY RAISE THEIR RENT PRI Review from Google Jan 2017: Went to see the apt. the staffs were push. the apt itself had mold smelling terrible, with even a relatively high rent. With the same amount, you can definitely find many other nice places to live in. Will not consider Hammond. Review from Google May 2016: Lived here for nearly four years. The location is perfect, and the apartments themselves aren't bad, being that they are apartments. I recently rented one of their basement apartments, however, and it just teemed with mold in my bedroom wall. Other than that though, the apartments are spacious and the staff is nice. They just got taken over by a new company, and changed their rent to inflated flat rates, which is why I'm leaving. Well, that, and the mold.
Review from 5/24/16 on Google May 2016: To start off, I love the staff at this apartment complex. Sunflower has recently been taken over by Rand Property Management, and that has lead to a complete turn around for them as a business and housing facility. Dog breed restrictions do not exist here, which means this is great for all Pitbull owners, including myself. The staff really puts what you have to say into the highest regards, and does their absolute best to fix whatever was wrong. The new management group has done so many renovations already to the property, with a lot more in mind. They're real people, that have been in our shoes at some point, and want to make this a great living experience. Review from Google Mar 2016: Beware bugs, outdated a/c units (causing nearly $300 kub bill) and fire hazard in attics. I lost my apartment in the fire of 2014 and relocated to a new unit until my lease was finished. I've lived in quite a few apartments around Knoxville and this was by far the worst. Stay away.
Review from 3/2/16 on Google Oct 2015: I've really enjoyed living at Sunflower Apartments. The staff is kind and available - a HUGE plus for me. The location is great too. I can get almost anywhere in Knoxville within 10 minutes. I feel safe tucked away in its neighborhood too. Review from Google Oct 2015: Lived in an apartment next to the maintenance guy and his son. Yes they live together. They chain smoke all the time and when it gets cold they smoke inside. The smell leaks through the wall like nothings there. The maintenance themselves are slow at everything. CAUTION: When looking at these apartments look for leaks and attempted cover up of leaks. They try to paint over it, but it is so noticeable. When I lived there they said it was not a big deal, but the leaks kept happening again and again and they came and "fixed" it every time. We found mold in a corner of the sink, took pictures, then asked them to come look at it.
Review from 10/20/15 on Apartment Ratings Oct 2015: Great place to live and an extremely beautiful view. Community at sunflower is amazing, always friendly and involved with residents. Amenities that are available are phenomenal and staff really seems to really want to know residents on an individual basis! Review from Google Sep 2015: Great staff and even better cookies! They were incredible helpful and made the move in process extremely easy and hassle free. There were a few issues with the unit on move in but they were all resolved within days. Review from Google Sep 2015: I have had a okay experience! Just ready for the construction to be over with! Other than that everybody is very friendly, and very kind. Only problem is the construction workers at the time and the limited parking!
Review from 9/15/15 on Apartment Ratings Sep 2015: Great people who live here.
We have had to wait a few months for a new porch, so we haven't really been able to enjoy that feature. However, our apartment manager has been really accommodating by dropping out rent until that project is completed.
We haven't had many problems. Almost every problem we've had has been fixed right away.
Review from 9/15/15 on Apartment Ratings Aug 2015: I will say the apartments look great upon a showing that I received last month. I did decided to go ahead and lease the apartment and on a move in date, have already paid my deposit and first prorated month's rent. Upon receiving news that my work schedule would be changing I called to move my move in dat up a week, which was after the date that they said the apartment would be ready for move in. Both the women who work in the office said they would call me back with a response as to of the apartment would be ready, now a week later have still not received a response. I have called since and left messages and still no one will call me back. I have gone to the payment and looked in the windows and the floors are done. If you ever have to deal with this apartment complex be warned their office staff is not helpful or responsive. Review from Google Mar 2015: Was very pleased with the my five years spent here. The staff is professional and efficient and the residents are one huge community! Great place to live and happy to recommend! Only complaint is no community garden!
Review from Google Aug 2014: GOOD NEWS! I am responsible for the review below stating that sunflower apartments refused to pay 500 deposit back. I AM PLEASED TO SAY that after talking to the right people we were able to successfully get our deposit back. They were happy to fix the problem. Review from Google
