Hello everyone!
I am supposed to be moving to the Boca/ delray this weekend but all the condo and townhouses we were given to look at have gotten horrible ratings by residents and now we don't know what to do! Can someone please recommend a gated community that has condos/townhouses to rent.
Any info will help! THANK YOU!!!!

Are these "horrible ratings" things you've seen online?

Well, you have to remember that the people usually motivated to rate apartments are those that have had negative experiences. We've all been tempted to "write a letter" or complain to management when we get bad customer service or have a bad experience, but when do we ever ask to see the manager to compliment a good worker?

One thing you can do is talk to residents out and about in the communities you are looking at, rather than reading comments online. Might get you a more balanced sample.

That being said, I'll let the Boca people expound on and recommend complexes in that area.

I have looked at most of the rentals in Boca apartment wise and many condos. The issue with the condo is you are going to need to be approved by the HOA which takes 2-4 weeks. I am super picky like beyond. Now I agree that the apartment rating sites rates everything as horrible it seems. What is your price range? Off hand I think San Marco at Broken sound though older inside is nice. It is a townhome 2 or 3 bedroom with garage. Gated and in a nice area. Also another but more expensive and when I called they did not have any 2 bedrooms available but this may have changed is Charleston apartments.

BWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Oh, excuse me. Where was I? So, I need a schoolin' in Boca. My husband wants me to fly out there and spend 1 1/2 days and magically rent a condo/apartment/house that we will be pleased with for at least a year. So school me on this rental market so I can school him. I just picked myself up off the floor and walked out of the room. He has been watching too much Star Trek Next Generation...that line where Captain Picard says "make it so".

He has to be there ready to work January 18th. We are pretty certain we want to live in Spanish River High School zoned area.

Hit me with all you have. (try not to hurt me).

I am excited and overwhelmed. Have never been to Boca. Hope I like it.
