The very tone Northborough sets in its support service is highly negative. It is never their fault…read morebut the fault of the vendors. It's managers are unreachable outside of their office hours and the emergency number comes not only with many caveats, but included in the message are threats of fines and banning if one need to ask for help outside its narrow list of acceptable emergencies. They seem to gain favor of the boards but fail miserably to serve the unit owners with any graciousness or courtesy. If you have any say in your association, advise your board to run as fast and as far as they can from this management company. As one who have led property management departments and companies, I can tell you that the petty oppression practiced by Northborough is sadly not uncommon but should have no place in our community. They are disrespectful to unit owners and downright dismissive to renters. They will make our association or complex a darker place than it is without them.

I am trying my best to get rid of these frauds and thieves. If your condo association is looking for a property management company take a pass on these clowns. We are a small complex in Marlborough and whenever there is a problem, they normally say you are not our only client. They tell you a date and time they'll show and don't show. We pay outrageously high condo fees and get so little in return. I am currently trying to get other owners to join me in kicking these punks to the curb.

When I called business office they said they're not responsible for others driving when it's their construction truck, and we pay HOA to live here! Quite honestly in the year we lived here, I never had such lack of concern from the corporation. Oh, other thing they said to me on phone is that the Valle Group (builders) hirers sub-contractors, so it wouldn't even be their trucks. Now as I understand it from a legal point of view if I hired someone to work on my home, and they damaged my neighbors home, wouldn't that be my responsibility?

I went right to their office as I really struggle with online applications. In their office asking .Elissa for help. She said to just follow the prompts as they are not allowed to help me. It asked for my credit card. .Elissa said it won't charge me, just do what it says. When it thanked me for my payment, again I asked Melissa what was going on. Then I got all these fraud alerts. Their website brought me to a hacker website. I had to cancel my credit card. Not only that, but they refused to give me a paper application saying if I couldn't do it online it was not their problem. I left multiple messages for the owner Randall as he showed me the property and never got a call back. Very disappointed with this agency. Trying to move back to the Northbride/Uxbridge area, have awesome credit and the agency has most of the listing's. I will report them to the BBB. What they did was unconsciousable. Terrible people, didn't even get an apology...​​

This is a nice quiet condominium, set back behind a new section of the Alewife Greenway Bike Path…read more I'm surprised to read the previous review, from 2011. I've lived here since August 2012 and I've enjoyed my stay here. The living space is small but comfortable for couples. The location is amazing - a mile from Alewife T and Davis square. A 2 minute walk to the bus station. You cannot hear traffic. There is a nice grassy area to throw a ball and sunbath on the pool deck. The pool opened in early June and stayed open into September, and the water was always clean. This is cat city, I have indoor cats but there is a nice area to let them out on the leash. But it seems safe for outdoor cats if they are street wise. We have no bug problems (perhaps because we are on the 3rd floor?) The building is older but they seem to be slowly renovating. Our ceiling leaked during one rainstorm (apparently a seagull had drilled a hole through the roof), but maintenance was very speedy in sealing the leak and repairing the water damage to our wall. Other than that, we have had no issues to speak of. The place is clean and the grounds are taken care of. I can't get over how nice it is to have an outdoor balcony with grassy space, a bike trail, and walking distance to Somerville, Cambridge, Medford.... Davis Square... Alewife... Tufts University... the commuter rail, and to be able to afford it. Really, its a gem if you don't mind the smaller size of the apartment.

I hear and agree with both reviews- except the bit about creeps, David, that's not quite right. We…read morehave some retirees, and at least two ADA tenants here, but I've owned and lived here for over a decade. Most of the creeps are gone. The location is terrific, the "bones" of the property are good, and most all the owners are decent people. The current board however self-manages the place, and volunteer management has no time for detail-- and half the board is comprised of multi-unit absentee owners. I call it "selfish management." This mindset keeps the quality down and the slum up, by lowballing vendors and omitting quality oversight to the present day. Sometimes contract work has to be done over. Most all major capital projects done here are strictly for legal compliance or result of a class action by owners. A group of us are now petitioning all owners to hire straight-shooting professional management, which is designed to enhance our board's ability to improve Brookside with competent oversight, while observing condo law regarding accounting, legal. and other issues - and while keeping unit fees low. Just like Chuck says, we think we can do better. A motion was placed before the board for this purpose at April's annual meeting-- it was disrupted by our board leader, an owner of 8 units here. That is of course against procedure-- you never interrupt a motion. So a mailing of the motion petition is going out at our expense. If you're an owner, get in touch with me at lormiller@rcn.com; if you're a renter, have your landlord contact me to discuss this change. I want to see at least 3 stars for our rating within a year, and nobody hit in the wallet! Loren Miller Concerned Owner at Brookside
