Looking for Apartments in Midlo/Forest Hills

Some of the Forest Hill apartments are brand spanking new so won’t have any experienced tenants. I can say that the neighborhood is outstanding. Also Forest Hill is still within Richmond city limits.

Hello, I am looking for a house or townhouse in midlothian area (or within a 20 min drive). Needs to be 2+ bedrooms. I have one dog, he’s 5 yrs old, housebroken. Everything I find are either scams or have 300 inquiries already. I need to find something by the end of august at the latest. Ty!

I lived in the Forest Hill Apartments managed by Tuffy Properties right next to Forest Hill park. It was awesome and a great place that was really affordable. The management team is awesome too. They were great to rent with
