    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.

    Michael and the office are extremely responsive to maintenance requests and seem to always be doing things to keep the building itself in tip-top shape.

I look forward to continued efforts to revamp the property inside and out from landscaping, cleaning, pest control, portal management and updating apartments. I would like to highlight the positives regarding our mailroom and parcel management as well as suggest routine carpet cleanings on each floor. I can see that changes for the better are being made as fast as possible .

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.

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.
