Let's start with the good: great location next to the park, far enough away from the college, in unit washer and dryer.
The not so good:
Numerous issues with maintenance, especially when the new property manager took over in the past year or so. Took a literal month to get my oven fixed. Instant pot meals it was, for a month. It was around Christmas time so I would've loved to been able to make cookies. There was an also a leak from upstairs that messed up my wall, and I'm not kidding when I say maintenance had to come to my apartment 6 times, and they couldn't match the paint. They ended up asking me if they could just paint that wall a different color and have an "accent wall". My partner ended up just going to Home Depot himself, brought a paint chip in and they matched the color perfectly there. Why a maintenance person wouldn't know to do that, I don't know. I'm pretty sure all of the apartments are painted the same greige color anyway. Also dealt with a noisy upstairs neighbor that had a drum set. Multiple complaints were made, and nothing was ever done. I was told it was being addressed, but the noise continued so I decided to give up since I knew my partner and I were moving out to buy our own home in a few months. Be warned your pet deposit is non-refundable so don't get your hopes up about getting that money back when you move out. It's ridiculous to pay both a pet deposit and then $35 a month in pet rent. I would definitely recommend that only applicants with emotional support animals to apply for this reason . Rent went up a significant amount every year. One year they added an additional utility to the lease. They also only allow long-term residents who have been there for years, either only be in 6 month leases if their apartment is not a renovated unit, each renewal raising the rent or having them move to a new, renovated apartment which is a lot easier said than done for 75 year old. I'm not a long-term tenant-- been there for 3 years, but when I was told this by neighbors I was saddened to hear about this. In my opinion, this is seemingly predatory. I would expect nothing less from a property management company such as Post Road Management, with hundreds of properties in their portfolio. Corporate greed is real. It's the norm now unfortunately. Anyway, eat the rich . Hope this review is helpful! read more
