DO NOT RENT FROM PARADIGM PROPERTIES:…read more My son thought he was 'reserving' an apartment and that we (his parents) would be the signer of his lease as he is a student on not gainfully employed. The form he signed is VERY MISLEADING as it is called a "credit application - rental agreement - receipt"...no mention of the word "LEASE". He is not returning to school in the fall and apparently what he signed they are saying in legally binding. I went to their website and found this: FAQ on website: Do I need a co-signer? Yes, if you are a student your parents or guardian will need to sign a Guaranty Form. If you are not a student, proof of income will be necessary; your rent may not exceed 35% of your income. My husband and I DID NOT sign anything to guarantee payment. These are students who have never rented/leased property before and it is unacceptable that they are taking advantage of kids that do not know what it is they are signing.

I lived here for two years and really enjoyed my time there. The apartments are studio apartments…read more--- basically glorified hotel rooms. However, the place was quiet, well maintained (lots of green grass, very on top of snow removal), and (for not having a roommate) quite affordable. The amenities were reasonable and I always felt safe. Also, parking was never, repeat never, a problem. It's about 10 min. from the SRU campus and 30 from Cranberry (where I also had classes). It's about a mile from I-79 too was was super convenient. I lived in the 500 building and I highly recommend it as it's set back a bit from the rest and the owner/super lives there too. Very good experience, especially compared to my buddies' apt stories.

My experience with this place was nightmarish. I was interested in renting a place back in Summer…read moreof '15, and this place seemed reasonable so I met with the landlord. The guy was a jerk. He was over 45 minutes late to our first appointment, no apology. Made excuses. He was disrespectful to my mother who was with me to look. I told him I had a service dog and would I be able to bring him with me. He said he had to "check with his investors", but otherwise, sure. He showed me a place and it seemed nice enough for a studio. However, my opinion of the property soon turned sour when he said that it was "expected of me" to participate actively in the community of Stoneworth. When I asked him to explain, he said there was "no room" for anyone who wanted to keep to themselves on his property. He said if I didn't interact with my neighbors and keep up my participation with them, that I would "not be a good fit". This seemed very strange to me and I didn't like the idea of that. He said that I could only walk my dog in a 5 foot x 5 foot square of grass DIRECTLY outside of the apartment I would be in. When I said that my dog would need more room than that to walk, explore, and ultimately be a dog in, and that I would be sure to clean up after him every time, he said "No. The dog must stay in the aforementioned perimeter". Despite his dictatorship over my dog, he lets his un-fixed cats walk around, make messes, and breed all over the property. He said that if anyone had a problem with his cats, "they can leave". Despite these issues, I really needed a place so I told him we'd be back to sign paperwork at a later date, and he asked me to bring documentation for my dog. The next time we came up, he was again over half an hour late for our meeting, had completely confused me with someone else, was again rude to my mother, and made her sit away from me during this paperwork. The final straw was when I handed him the documentation for my dog and he said "what's this?" I told him what it was and he said "I don't know what you're talking about, we don't accept dogs here." When I reminded him of our last meeting, he said that he would not allow service dogs on his property, and that his investors would not allow him to either. I told him to forget about me renting there, that I was not going to deal with this level of incompetence. He crumpled the paper and threw it behind me and we promptly left. This man is a jerk and a bad landlord and I'm glad I never rented there. I would not recommend this place to ANYONE.

This is my second year living at Campus Side. I live alone in the North Building--the second to…read morenewest building. This building houses one-person and four-person apartments. It's generally pretty quiet here. The rooms themselves are pretty nice, especially comparing to some other places. If you want to live alone, it's probably your best bet, unless you can find something cheaper. The rent is $595/month for my apartment. Pretty high for a college student's budget, but still cheaper than some of the dorms. There is a laundry room, and a recreation room, which has exercise equipment and a TV/couch room, as well as tanning beds. It's all free to use, except the tanning. The rec room is open until I believe 7pm at night, and the laundry facilities are 24/7. Location to campus is pretty good; it's about 3/4 of a mile to walk to the Union from here, or you can catch the Happy Bus which stops here every half hour. The people in the office are nice--I've never personally dealt with the landlord, but I've talked on the phone to the two ladies who work there and they're always extremely pleasant and helpful. Maintenance is also great; they come out same day if it's not too late in the day, or next weekday if they can't get to you then. There's adequate parking. Each resident gets a decal for their car, and a guest pass. They plow and salt during the winter, from what I can see. I don't have a car with me, but there haven't been any accidents in the parking lot or anything. There isn't really an apartment "social life" in this complex, so if you're trying to get the dorm experience where you're always with people, you probably shouldn't rent here. Like I said, this building is all single person or four-person apartments. Campus Side doesn't have any events or anything, and the only common area is the rec room and laundry room, which don't get very crowded, ever. If you like keeping to yourself, then you'd love it here! That being said, if you do enjoy partying at the infamous Pine Glenn (Keister) Apartments, they're right across the street. On the other hand, if you enjoy laughing at idiotic drunk people, you can look out your window and make a night of it! My only gripe is that they started construction on their newest building (their building that houses the personal villas), without saying anything to current residents. There has probably been a collective 3-4 weeks where they did construction round the clock, and there were countless times that I woke up at 2am from the "beep beep beep" of whatever truck was being used at the time. They didn't start round the clock until after school was out, but during the school year, they did start around 7am every day. This was brutal during finals week--I actually have a sleeping disorder, and starting at 7am absolutely fried my brain. They are mostly done with construction now, though, so no problem for incoming residents! Overall, I'd recommend it here. If you can afford it, take a tour and submit an application!

Management continues to make minuscule, irrelevant "improvements" to justify raising the rent. We still have old appliances and furniture, unlike the sample apartments they showed us. Meanwhile, nothing in the apartments are being upgraded. Our stove needs fixed, our door needs fixed, and lights need replaced. We cannot fill out a work order because they have not hired a maintenance worker for MONTHS. Additionally, they were not honest about water prices and the transfer to a new company which charges us four times the usual amount. Management is inconsistent in the information they provide whenever I have called and constantly avoid answering my questions. PLUS the wifi never works which is frustrating because it is written in the lease that wifi is provided. If anyone is trying to find an apartment in Slippery Rock, look into the landlords who own houses--it's rolling the dice but could be more honest and inexpensive. Campus Side was a nice place to live too. In my experience, the off-campus housing in the area is difficult because college students are easily taken advantage of.

I left a religious item by accident when I moved out. They had no sympathy when I realized I forgot it, they told me they found it and threw it out, I was never informed.

First, spoke to Kristin, we have to back out of a lease due to medical reasons and we are giving 120 days notice before lease takes effect, move in date of mid-August 2023.

Kristin Pascoe CEO, Colasacco Real Estate Group, response, " we will file for a judgement against both parties for the full lease amount of $11,280.00 through the local courts." Tenant has no rights according to lease agreement. RENTER BEWARE. Second, Rent due monthly is $968 at 1st of the month, yet one is not allowed to take hold of dwelling until Aug 16th 2023. Really? So tenant is suppose to accept losing $460.00? If you are paying rent for the whole month then access should be given at 1st of month. Rest of this lease reads to be in favor of landlord and charge for every minor infraction. Have your college kid look elsewhere before you pay penalities of $500 for dog poop or uninvited guest or damages from wear and tear. Ridiculous. Lastly, the leasing agent last response in an email: "See you in court in August, then! Also take note in the lease, all legal fees we incur will be your responsibility to pay Thanks! Kristin Pascoe"
