I am a current renter who has lived here for several years, and I am sharing this review across…read moreplatforms to strongly caution anyone considering renting here under Sparrow Property Management unless you are prepared for neglect, poor communication, and a steadily declining property. Since Sparrow Property Management took over, the building has gone downhill quickly. The property is consistently filthy -- common areas are dirty, trash is poorly maintained, and basic upkeep is not being done. It feels like no one is responsible for keeping the building livable. Basic services are also being neglected. For example, there has been no heat in the lobby or elevators for over 72 hours, with no vendors on-site to address the issue. Snow removal is inadequate and unsafe. Entrances, sidewalks, and walkways are poorly cleared during storms, creating dangerous conditions for residents. Management is essentially nonexistent. The property manager is rarely on-site, there is no visible oversight, and communication is terrible. When issues are raised, they are often ignored or dismissed. Being told directly that "monitoring the property is not her job" is both shocking and unacceptable. Like many renters, I do not currently have the financial ability to move, so I am forced to live with these declining conditions. There is no pride in maintaining this property and no real accountability. Profit has clearly taken priority over providing a clean and safe living environment. AVOID THIS BUILDING AT ALL COSTS!

First the tennent upstairs was very noisy and was reprimanded several times to no avail. Although 95% of the maintenance department were friendly, the supervisor was a real curmudgeon! Most of the residents are either empty nester's or work in the city and found that most had a chip on their shoulder. We tried to make friends but a lot of people weren't very receptive. If you like pets, this is the place for you. One thing, the airplanes start flying overhead at 5am so don't plan on sleeping late and the property sits on the former site of a jail and sanatorium. There are a lot of woods behind the property which freaks me out. The pools are nice and the gym is OK. They built a yoga or Pilates studio for the snooty, pretentious women there.

All the buildings are numbered incorrectly, resulting in delivery people driving in circles trying to find the right address. I once had an emergency in my apartment and the fire department could not even locate me until 20 minutes later, thank god the building wasn't on fire! Parking is a fight, if you don't get home by 430 be prepared to hike to your apartment. The only good thing about this complex is the beautiful hiking trails in the back that go on for miles. Also, the laundry rooms are disgusting, the floor is covered in dirt and debris, if you drop something you HAVE to re wash it. Most of the time only 1 of the 3 washers actually work, making it very hard to do more than one load. You are better off going to a laundromat. The woman who runs the front office is extremely rude and unhelpful. She does not know how to manage an apartment complex. We have a neighbor here who watches everything that goes on all day and reports into the office about it, it's like you are in a prison. DO NOT MOVE HERE.

Lets start with the bedroom sizes. Where in North NJ can you get a 1 bedroom apartment with a HUGE walk in closet and bedroom size of 15x12 for under $1100??? This $1100 also includes refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave attached to the stove, large pantry, updated kitchen and bathroom, 2 air conditioning units, wall to wall carpeting, chandelier, blinds heat and hot water. The complex sits right on top of highway route 46 and depending on you unit, you WILL hear the highway every second of every day. Some units are louder and much closer to the highway then desirable. They offer garages with electricity built into the bill at a preimum price. There is a pool available for summer months to enjoy though it isn't that big. Its location is close to everything you need and for college students, graduates and couples just starting out its a great place to live. The superintendent lives in the complex and gets around to service calls within a few days depending on the severity of the need. I really didn't have any complaints living here. I think it was a good price for what you get. The highway being so close is definitely a negative and if you don't get to know the property manager and super, you might wait a tad longer for your service call to be completed then you would like. So just make your face known, give a call every now and then and you really shouldn't have a problem.

Yes, you are right on 46, but it's not too bad depending on where your apartment is located. The complex itself is very quiet, with the occasional party which quiets down at night. All the tenants are, for the most part, courteous but a few could use a lesson in parking lol. But all in all, it's a great place to live. Depending on which floor you are on will determine your price. From $1100 to $1600 for a 1 bedroom - the higher price being the top floor. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND renting here!

I recently completed my stay at Valley and Bloom, and I want to be very clear: the on-site…read moremanagement team led by Magda and Reggie is the sole reason this review has any positive stars. They are exceptional at what they do--professional, kind, responsive, and genuinely committed to keeping the building clean, functional, and welcoming. Their team works early mornings, late nights, and everything in between. They are the heartbeat of the property, and any praise this building receives should go directly to them. Unfortunately, the ownership and corporate leadership behind Valley and Bloom--LCOR--operate at the opposite end of the spectrum. My experience with the owners was unprofessional, dismissive, and at times completely negligent. Parking Garage & Security Issues The garage is marketed as a benefit of living here, but what they don't tell you is that it's owned under a separate LLC. When my car was hit--causing $1,700 in damage--there was zero accountability. The building has cameras only at the entrances, not throughout the garage, and ownership made no effort to help identify what happened or take responsibility. It's promoted as part of the lease, yet structured in a way that shields them from liability. Construction Delays A "two-week" second-floor rehab project dragged on for more than two months. During this time, access to the main level was frequently blocked. They brought in day laborers from Pennsylvania, which may explain the delay, but what's worse is that tenants continued paying full rent despite the inconvenience and reduced access. Internet & Data Security Concerns The building's internet offering--also owned by the same parent company--raised serious red flags. Management has access to passwords for tenant access points, and during one troubleshooting call with a help desk in Asia, I was given access to a neighbor's access point as a way of "testing" my end device. This is a complete breach of security and privacy. When I raised these concerns to LCOR's COO, Mike Hogentogler, I received no response to either my email or voicemail. After eight years with the company, perhaps he doesn't feel the need to acknowledge "petty renters" paying $3,400 a month. Final Thoughts To be clear: Magda, Reggie, and their team earn a 5-star rating. They are outstanding people doing the work that corporate leadership fails to support. I would recommend them for any property management role--they are the only bright spot in my experience. My experience with LCOR--the ownership--was genuinely awful. The lack of accountability, poor communication, questionable data security, and total disregard for tenants make them a company I would never do business with again. I moved into Valley and Bloom after a house fire, with insurance covering most of my costs. If I had been paying out of pocket, I would have chosen a different place to live.

This was hands down the worst experience applying to a "luxury" apartment building (and I use that…read moreterm loosely) I've ever had. Reggie is your typical "nice guy" salesman, but don't be swindled by him. After we applied, they spent over 3 weeks dragging their feet and making up every excuse in the book on why it took so long for my application to get approved. Everywhere else it only takes 1-2 days. And it ONLY took 3 weeks because I kept calling and asking for updates...otherwise, they won't update you or remember to even submit your application. After stealing our money for the deposit, it still took me multiple attempts to contact them for them to say "oh yeah, we've been meaning to call you, the apartment you applied for actually isn't available. But don't worry! We'll get you in an even smaller and more expensive unit!" No sorry, no discount, no nothing. We lost a month waiting to hear back from these people and now are left scrambling to find housing last minute. They even seemed offended when I demanded a quick refund- and again, zero apologies and said the refund would take up to 10 days even though the whole mess was their fault. Brian actually hung up on me mid-sentence as I was asking for my refund, which is alarming. We had to reach out to LCor/Terri Burkett just to get our money back because this place is run like a scam. Save yourself the headache and apply to literally ANY other apartment. Unfortunately I didn't see the low yelp ratings a month ago, which now make sense.
