    Week 2 from leak of last year

    After a month of back and forth - the issue is temporarily fixed. To whoever rents this unit. Be aware that this issue will come back each year and that they do not actually fix the issue and they still charge you full rent price knowing that it comes back and then they take a month to fix. Whatever they do here is shady af. If they own the building, run. If they don't, and it's probably okay.

    I do not recommend root realty for renting any apartment they put cameras and listening devices in your apartment when you are not home this is the third time I have found them in my residence and I really don't know what to do I have pictures and still have the cameras and everything to prove it so I highly recommend do not rent an apartment from root.

    Deplorable people. They think nothing of systematically gouging or outright pricing out every…read moretenant, every year. Despite numerous maintenance issues, a laundry room that's almost always defunct, violations of the RLTO's access rules, illegal utility billing fees, ignored maintenance requests, nonstop lies and deferments, oh, and not having been able to get paper mail for months because their striker is broken, they tried to raise my rent 10% after my first year. No negotiation. My 12-resident WhatsApp chat is nothing but torrents of frustrations and complaints about Rany's despicable behavior. Notice that the positive reviews here and on Google usually focus on the leasing agent, or are over 2 years old. Rany bribes new residents with a $20 rent credit to write positive reviews. These people have no sense of responsibility toward their residents or the communities they profit from. Everything is about gouging as much money as possible out of tenants and doing as little as possible. Avoid avoid avoid.

    Somehow the review on google went mysteriously missing? They still have not addressed the rat issue…read more(rats running wild in the courtyard) and all the dryers are still broken. Original review: I was visiting my cousin, and he unfortunately and recently moved to the 4828H W Addison St apartments. I left towards the end of the day. When I got into the interior hallway, I was surrounded by several large rats (about the size of cats) and they looked like they were going to attack me. I freaked out and slipped down the whole flight of stairs, slightly injuring my leg. I asked him about this, and he said that the door to the outside has been broken since he moved in and that he has been trying to contact the management regarding the issue. However, when he calls, the phone rings a few times and then disconnects. Go on try calling yourself, you'll see that you can't speak to anyone. He also mentioned that all the dryers are completely broken and don't work, and they promised to fix them many times but never did (he literally is forced to hang clothes out like it's an 1800's Amish building) the hell is going on here. It's impossible to get in touch with anyone, and you can't submit a written demand for repairs. This is also probably a huge fire hazard, as I suspect the dryers are completely clogged with lint internally. In this building, the pipes also make a weird, LOUD, echoing clank/thud noise randomly every 5-15 minutes. It's extremely loud for no reason, like it's a production factory. I can't imagine how hard it would be to sleep in this place, let alone be sane living in it. This entire building should be completely condemned by the city, in my honest opinion, and every time I pull up to this building someone is moving out with a moving truck (wonder why). I decided the only way to get their attention was by posting this review on Google. I will take photos soon and post them too. It also smells like rat pee everywhere and you can see poo all over the hallway we will forward this to his alderman and photos. Legally speaking, they are obligated to address the rat issue within 14 days, but you can't contact them. Maybe they think they can skirt the issue by never answering the phone. The next route we can go is 311 and the tenants rights site.

Ardmore…read moreWinthrop Properties sets the bar and sets it high for what being great property managers and landlords looks like. Incredibly attentive and responsive staff, from the office to the maintenance folks. They're proactive about health and safety concerns. They make it a point to replace all smoke detector batteries twice a year and offer complimentary preventative pest control (always with advance notice and signs posted letting you know it's going to be happening, and they always make sure to ask if you have pets that they need to be careful not to let out when they enter) - they keep the building extremely clean. I see the cleaning person around the building doing her thing almost every day. It's also the most festive building I've ever lived in. Every month they put up new decorations (and sometimes candy) for holidays in the entryways, lobby, even on each floor. And they keep a ton of beautiful plants and a water feature in the lobby and laundry room. Everyone is very friendly. When you run into the maintenance person, he always takes a moment to ask how everything is going on your floor/in your apartment and maybe share some fun facts about the building's design. If you have an issue or concern about something, they respond right away. They send you holiday and birthday cards and have been offering free laundry on site throughout the pandemic. The laundry room is huge with 6 washers (most brand new) and 8 dryers. They do everything they can to make receiving packages easy and secure for their tenants. If you're looking to rent in the Edgewater neighborhood, do yourself a favor and ask Ardmore Winthrop Properties for a tour of one of their buildings.
