Who This Residence Suits (and Who It Doesn’t)
PDP 85019 is a shared house in Chandler, Arizona, that targets students or young professionals looking for a room in a group living setup. The property offers 8‑bedroom units, meaning residents share common areas and facilities with up to seven other people. This arrangement is best suited for those who are comfortable with a busy, communal environment and want to keep housing costs predictable by having bills included in the weekly rent.
Suits:
- Individuals who need a short‑to‑medium‑term lease (minimum 16 weeks, available from 5 July 2026).
- People who prefer an all‑in‑one package where internet, parking, and utilities are covered (the listing tags indicate bills are included).
- Roommates who are already in a group and want to secure a block of beds together – the 8‑bed configuration often works for friend groups or cohort‑based travel.
Does not suit:
- Those who need private, quiet living. Shared houses with eight residents can be noisy and require compromise on space and schedule.
- Anyone who expects responsive, customer‑focused management. Available reviews (see next section) suggest serious concerns about communication and dispute handling.
- People on a tight move‑in schedule who cannot afford last‑minute uncertainty. The same reviews warn about late housing confirmations.
Because no specific price is published for PDP 85019, its affordability relative to other Chandler options is unclear. The city’s indicated starting price for student housing is around $166 per week (indicative – confirm with the operator). If PDP 85019 falls near or below that benchmark, it could be a cost‑effective choice; if significantly higher, residents might find better value elsewhere. Always ask the operator for a firm weekly rate before committing.
What Residents Actually Say
Three Google reviews are attached to this property (overall Google rating: 2 out of 5 stars, based on 89 reviews). All three are strongly negative and centre on the management’s slow response, lack of help, and unexpected fees.
Emily Posey (rating 1):
“I absolutely can’t wait until I finally live off campus. I have been with ASU housing for a year and a half and I have always had problems with them. They take forever to respond to emails, and when I finally get in contact with them, they are not helpful at all.”
Marie Twyman (rating 1):
“Absolute worst nightmare dealing with housing with ASU. They will not tell you if you have housing until 2 weeks before class begins. How can you plan for such a time consuming process in under two weeks. You can’t! So you take your chances and pray you will have housing, or you try to find living off campus.”
Celia Polley (rating 1):
“I wish i could give them 0 stars. I moved out of my room in may and realized they charged me $50 to remove a command strip. YEP FIFTY DOLLARS FOR A COMMAND STRIP. Not only did this happen but i also had many issues throughout the year when my roommate threatened to kill me and they did nothing!”
These comments appear to reference a housing operator that may also manage PDP 85019. The consistent complaints are:
- Email replies take weeks.
- Housing confirmation is given only shortly before move‑in, making planning difficult.
- Charges for minor damage (e.g., $50 for a command strip) are seen as excessive.
- Serious roommate safety concerns were reportedly ignored.
Prospective tenants should weigh these experiences heavily. If the same team runs PDP 85019, residents should expect minimal support and potential last‑minute changes. It would be wise to contact the operator directly, ask about response times, and request a written confirmation of move‑in procedures well in advance.
Price Positioning vs. City’s From‑Price
Chandler’s student‑housing market (48 properties listed) shows a typical starting rate of $166 per week (indicative – confirm with the operator). This figure is a baseline for shared accommodation with bills included.
PDP 85019 does not currently display a minimum or maximum price. Without a listed rate, it is impossible to say whether it is cheaper, comparable, or more expensive than nearby alternatives. When you inquire, ask:
- What is the weekly rent for an 8‑bedroom house?
- Are there any additional fees (application, cleaning, deposit)?
- Is the $166/week benchmark typical for this property, or is it higher?
If the operator quotes a figure close to $166/week, the value proposition hinges on the quality of management and room condition. If it is higher, Chandler has at least 47 other properties to compare.
Room‑Type Guidance
PDP 85019 offers only one room type: beds within an 8‑bedroom shared house. There are no private studios, one‑bedroom apartments, or smaller shared units.
- What you get: A room (likely private, but confirm with the operator) inside a house with seven other residents. Common areas – kitchen, living room, bathrooms – are shared.
- Tags indicate: Parking and internet are included; bills are covered in the rent.
- Lease term: Minimum 16 weeks, starting from 5 July 2026. This suits a summer semester or a short‑term work placement.
For those who need a more private or flexible arrangement, Chandler’s other listings include studio apartments, two‑bedroom flats, and smaller shared houses. Compare the total cost (rent + utilities) per week with the inclusive rate offered here.
Booking Timing
The property becomes available on 5 July 2026. Given the negative reviews about late confirmations (two weeks before start), it is risky to leave booking until the last minute.
- Recommended booking window: 2–3 months before move‑in (i.e., April–May 2026). This gives time to sign a contract, arrange payment, and secure a specific room.
- What to do now: Contact the operator early, ask for a written lease offer, and request a firm confirmation date. If they cannot provide one, consider a backup option.
- Minimum lease: 16 weeks, so the earliest move‑out would be late October 2026 (if moving in on 5 July).

FAQ
H3: What is the minimum lease length?
The property requires a minimum lease of 16 weeks. This is shorter than many academic‑year contracts, so it works well for summer sessions, short internships, or residents who only need a few months.
H3: Are parking and internet included?
Yes, according to the listing tags, parking is available and internet is provided. The tags also indicate that bills are included (likely electricity, water, gas). Always confirm exact inclusions and any caps (e.g., internet speed, number of parking spots) directly with the operator.
H3: How reliable is the management based on reviews?
The three attached reviews give a unanimous rating of 1 out of 5. They describe slow email responses, last‑minute housing confirmations, an unexpected $50 charge for removing a command strip, and an unaddressed roommate safety issue. While these comments may refer to a broader operator rather than exclusively PDP 85019, they are a strong warning. Prospective tenants should test responsiveness by sending an inquiry and noting how long it takes to get a clear answer.
