We're now in our third year of being at home as residents of this beautiful apartment complex. In…read morethis time we've never had a bad moment. Small problems are always immediately addressed, fixed or solved. The maintenance team is by far the most exceptional group of hard working, friendly, happy and professional men. The average wait time for response is literally just hours. Your request for service is immediately acknowledged. Then the assigned team member, Mike, Jesus, Anthony...They make the friendly call, schedule for when it's convenient for you, then it's fixed. Simple as that. But not simply done. They always ask how we're doing. How are family is doing. Sincerely so. They're friends. Neighbors. There to help. Ask what else they can do for us. (We're two older women, mother & daughter and are always made to feel listened to and cared for, in a lovely maternal way) Then there's the office staff. Caitlin, Regan, Dave.... Regan and Dave took us through our 2021 renewal recently. They're just so fabulous- always honest, clear and professional . We are looking forward to 2021 Summer at the pool and enjoying the beautiful brand new clubhouse, technology center with super comfortable spaces and a NEW professional level gym!!! I can't wait to get onto the recumbent bicycle that is exactly what I had hoped would be added in the new equipment set up. The trees flowered so nicely this year. My one grump with the extensive landscaping is that they don't put iron nails under the hundreds of hydrangeas to bring out more colors! But there are always flowers. The waking paths are very well maintained. I use a rolling walker so the annual upkeep of the asphalt walk is very much appreciated. A really nice surprise this year was the upgraded gas grill areas. Now there are two grills, set into large cooking spaces. Thanks! Maybe next year we will see an overhaul of the dog park? There are dogs everywhere now. Owners are responsible with cleaning up for the most part and pups are leashed. The park is too small even for our little guys and it's on a slope making it difficult for dogs and owners alike. It's kept super clean by use of washable astro-turf. All in all its just a happy place to call home.

Beware!! My lease started less than a month ago and I am shocked at how Windsor manages their…read morecommunities. My experience at Windsor at Oak Grove has been incredibly disappointing. First, they did not clean the apartment before move in. There was food debris on the refrigerator shelves. The floors were extremely dirty. Huge spiderwebs in the windows. Dead bugs everywhere. Years worth of dust and dirt on surfaces. Then, I had to send daily emails for 2 weeks for it to be partly cleaned. They did not want to clean the piled up dust from surfaces before my furniture was moved in 2.5 weeks after my lease started. DO NOT EXPECT YOUR APARTMENT TO BE CLEANED PRIOR TO MOVE IN! Second, Windsor also did not provide all keys to all the tenants until multiple emails and visits to the leasing/management office over this 2 week period. Third, the apartment floors are not well constructed and you can hear everything the upstairs tenants are doing. Every step, every door opening. Everything. You can also hear your neighbors conversations at times. Last and Even more concerning, they assigned a parking space (on my lease and on my move in paperwork) that was already assigned to another resident. I have been paying for someone else's parking spot and they are unresponsive on providing me any paperwork on another assigned parking spot. Multiple phone calls and emails without a response. DO NOT EXPECT TO RECEIVE WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR. The only positives about living here so far: the maintenance team is amazing. Super responsive, effective, and friendly. Neighbors are very friendly. The location is incredibly beautiful and convenient. Extremely dog friendly. Apartments are large.

Isabella and team is ultra professional and very responsive to resident"s needs and concerns. Location is superb, there is a nice gym , plenty of common open spaces to walk and hang out. Building is pretty and windows are huge- they do have a garage next door and some construction nearby in the seaport area. I never had an issue with noise and I am a light sleeper. Front desk staff is extremely helpful and friendly. They went out of the way to send my mails when I moved out few months ago ( due to revolution in a different city). Very much appreciated. They even found a tenant as I had to leave earlier than my lease expired, and saved $$ for me. Maintenance is awesome and quick. You don't have to worry about anything 24:7 pretty much. Very clean and well designed. I can appreciate them even more now that I have moved to another apartment and the management is not even close. When I was looking to rent in seaport area last year, I saw a number of places. This place gives you maximum for your buck! Highly recommended any day. They can be a bit pricey than some newer places but they are worth it.

They closed half of the amenities all winter after promising they'd be open, and then raised the…read morerent across the board by an average of $1k. They also give you roughly 65 days notice when increasing your rent before your lease is up, and ask for 60 days notice on a renewal. Makes sense! They can't seem to fill all vacancies for a reason but they're trying to keep up in pricing with the nicer buildings, would not recommend.

I'm very happy to have moved to Oak Row a month ago. It seems like many reviews online are from a…read moreprevious management company. The current management has been great from my experience so far and Matt and Ryan in the leasing office are phenomenal! They smile and greet you as you walk by and are very approachable and quick to address any questions or issues. The apartment itself is very nice with an open floor plan and new, brand-name appliances. Side note - the water pressure in the showers is amazing. There are some great amenities like game rooms and a well-rounded gym. They also have work from home spaces and a kid's play room. Outside there is a fenced-in dog run to let your dog off leash. Some owners don't pick up after themselves but that's the same anywhere you go unfortunately. The place as a whole is very pet friendly and I see a lot of dogs around. Also, it's just a 5 minute walk to Millennium Park which is a great spot to walk your dog. Did I mention there's literally a dog daycare across the street and it's one of the nicest ones I've seen? For parking, there's assigned spaces outside in the lot and inside the garage. They also have 4 electric vehicle charging stations (8 spaces) which is a huge bonus. You pay for your parking spaces but the charging station is free so it's not so bad. Although no apartment building is perfect, I can say that I'm very happy with Oak Row overall and I'd highly recommend it!

Pros: 1. The apartment complex is clean and they have…read morecleaners vacuum and wipe surfaces weekly. 2. The amenities are nice and maintained 3. The leasing office and maintenance are responsive Cons: 1. Utilities are too high and property management/ leasing office refuse to do anything about it. For a 2 bed/2 bath my average water bill was $85 for normal use ( e.g. - quick daily showers, wash clothes once a week or every other week etc). The electric bill was an average of $250 and closer to $400 in the winter months because heating is also electric. So if you actually like to be warm during the winter months keep that expense in mind. 2. The walls are paper thin, you will not hear your neighbors next to you but you can hear every foot step of upstair neighbors. Hopefully you don't have a family with young kids above you, unfortunately I did. And the leasing office did nothing about it. 3. When I moved out, I was charged for scratches on the stove and +$200 was deducted from security deposit for "damages" so be aware that they will do anything to take out of security deposit if and when you move. 4. Although the apartment complex is nice, I believe the rent is overpriced and charging $100 for parking is also too much considering how much renters pay in rent; ultimately its not worth it and renters can find apartments just as nice that don't have as high rent and better located.

He answered all my…read morequestions thoughtfully and did a wonderful job of showing me all the fantastic amenities and modern apartments Windsor had to offer. He went out of his way to address my specific questions and ensure I felt comfortable and confident about my decision. He was positive and clearly cares about the residents, personally greeting tenants as we passed them on my tour. It is evident that there is a wonderful community at Windsor and I look forward to joining it! Brent is great and I would highly recommend meeting with him during your apartment search!

The person in charge of maintenance has worked for this company for almost two decades, I believe. He is friendly, trustworthy, and good at what he does. One day, he came up to fix my dishwasher, and noticed that I was about to take my trash out, and offered to carry it downstairs for me. So thoughtful! He is also available on call if you accidentally lock yourself out (which I did once). The leasing office staff is incredibly kind. And after shopping around for housing in Boston, I can say that this is rare but so important! During a tough time of transition for me, Allie Hajjar was especially helpful and thoughtful. She was creative in coming up with a housing solution that worked for me, understanding what I needed, and demonstrating concern for my well-being. Her understanding, along with a series of positive interactions with the property manager, Kristen Drew, was salient to my decision to renew my lease, despite having a long commute to work. Coming home to a place where I feel part of a community is worth it. There is a way to blend personal warmth with professionalism, and the staff at Maxwell's Green exemplifies this perfectly. I highly recommend this property to prospective tenants in the Boston area.

We lived here for almost two and a half years from 2017-2019. It was a decent place to live,…read morethough we had many issues. I noticed that there were a lot of 5 star reviews. I'm glad most people had a good experience here, but I felt like I really needed to take the time to document my experience in detail for the Yelp community. It has been over 2 years since we lived there, so the property managers may have changed, but the mechanical issue likely still remains. First, the positives. It was really nice to be right off the bike path. It made it very family friendly and definitely felt very communal. We were walking distance to Davis Square, and it was a nice and beautiful walk along the bike path. The movie and community rooms were really nice. It has a pool table, full kitchen, multiple TV's, and a massive table. The room was definitely under-utilized as I hung out there quite often! The maintenance team was also amazing. Dick and Evan were very skilled, prompt, courteous, and professional! They definitely went above and beyond the call of duty. They live on-site, which made thing super convenient and their off-hours response time super quick. My biggest complaint is a design flaw with their HVAC and hot water system. They have a single device that heats both the hot water and the central air. The apartment has an instant hot water Navien boiler that also provides hot water to heat the air. It can only work on one of these at any given instance. So, at any given time, you have to choose to have either hot water or hot air. Being in Boston with sub freezing weather, this was not acceptable. If you take a 15 minute shower, the apartment would not be heated for the duration of that shower, so it would be freezing cold in the apartment. We were a corner unit, so the issue was likely worse in our unit than others. This was especially a problem in January/February when the temperatures dipped below 0. We had a 2 year old living there, so the temperature fluctuations was definitely a problem. We ended up having to get multiple space heaters, which proved expensive to operate. I escalated this complaint to the regional manager of Windsor communities, and they sent their regional maintenance person along with an outside plumber. They kept repeating that the system is operating normally, according to specifications (see attached letters). Never once did they recognize the design flaw in their HVAC system, or apologize for the way in which the "correctly working system" decreased our quality of life living there. The management company is not very helpful or friendly. There was high turnover (I think because it was such a stressful job), and when we had complaints, they would typically try to tell us why we were wrong or change the subject. I was disappointed to find out that the regional manager acted in the same way as the on-site property managers, which makes me think that avoiding concerns and issues by trying to explain them away is a company culture issue that comes from the top. Other issues we had: - Recurring pot smoking from a unit below us - Fire alarms randomly going off in the middle of the night (seemingly just in our unit) - Lack of guest parking spots - People parked in our assigned garage spot, and management not stepping in when the tow company did not come - Difficulty getting packages. If UPS delivered something to the front office, we would have to pick it up by the time the office closed, or remember to email them. This was inconvenient and I suggested they get a storage locker multiple times. - Constant construction nearby. This affected our water pressure multiple times. Thankfully we got out of there before the green line construction really started to take off.
