I asked for camera footage and both Derek and Kathy looked at each other scared and whispered something (weird isn't it?) then I was told the cameras were not working... what a joke. Emailed them a few times with no response back. Very unprofessional. Kathy is rude and knew exactly who that car belonged to as she offered me her AAA a week prior when she saw me outside. Usually they'll put orange warning stickers before towing a car and I didn't receive that. Why pay so much money if you can't leave personal property where you live! Terrible place I would not recommend. There wasn't no solution as they told me they don't "deal with prior damages" but I'm a car person with a modified car and take pictures daily... I think I would know if it was me. you guys are a joke.

This apartment community is the best I've ever lived in…read more Not only are the buildings beautiful, modern, and clean. Not only are the grounds kept wonderfully, the pond is beautiful, and the landscape looks like a Christmas card. Not only are the amenities fantastic and beautiful. Not only are the neighbors nice and friendly. Not only is the rent affordable. Not only is the location easy from both 93 and 495... ...but the Lodge at Ames Pond has the best staff I've ever encountered. First make sure to book yourself a showing with Farida (or Greg, I'm sure he's nice too). She is up-front, clear, and a fantastic individual to work with. It's not a sales pitch with Farida, but rather an exploration of what would work best for you and your family. She knows the property inside and out, and loves it just as much as we do. You'll leave with a signed lease, and a smile on your face. Everything is easy, UDR makes renting from a REIT a breeze with their online systems and quick turn around. The maintenance crew keeps the property wonderful, responds to tickets immediately, and keeps all this snow out of the way. There are other places out there, but seriously, stop looking. Come be our newest neighbor!

No staff on site after hours. I called the emergency number for a flooded bathroom due to a sink supply line leak - no one responded until days later. - Literally the only non-threatening email we get from management is the once yearly cookout - paid for by Xfinity and not UDR. - They constantly remind you of your liability while accepting no responsibility themselves. And everything is an additional fee... - "Secure" (unsecure) package room? Fee. - Parking? Fee. - Security cameras mentioned in the lease - never show any useful footage of thefts/crimes - Wanna have a cigar outside on your balcony? Can't - total non-smoking property, even outdoors. - Pet rent - people are shocked when they hear how much I pay, they tell me what they pay and it's always an order of magnitude less. - Any utilities included? Are you kidding me, even though, without housing assistance, the cheapest 1 bedroom/1 bath apartment is currently going for $2,525 a month. Look elsewhere. They put on a good show but the veil drops pretty quickly after you move in.

Carpets are ripped in the hallways and the trash room stinks up the place. Then the locks on the outside doors don't even work like normal locks; Turning the handles does nothing all you have to do is turn the key and pull. Overall this place is teeming with college students, dirty, and not looked after. Let alone this pile of trash that has been here for weeks.

The place is okay but definitely overpriced and unfortunately unlivable. I'm a dog owner so I love…read morethat they allow pets but some owners don't clean up after their pets and even walk them unleashed. My biggest issue though has been weed smoking in the building that seeps into my apartment daily. I have dealt with this everyday since I moved in about 5 months ago. The leasing office told me to call them when this happens and I have many times but the issue persists. At this point it's making me very ill as I have asthma. I have had to leave my apartment on weekends to breathe. Anytime is rains I have leaks that come in my living room so I have to strategically place my furniture and the blinds don't keep the sun out. What complicates the issue even more is that I work from home so I get to work with a contact high that makes me nauseous. I also have a HUGE electric bill because the windows are drafty even though the maintenance team seals them. Again a bigger issue with weed smoke being stuck in my apartment. The heating ducts are right at the top of the apartment so the heat just rises. Oh and for location this is definitely the hood. Just take a drive up Jackson street to see what I'm talking about. The maintenance team is responsive and friendly so full marks there. For the money they are asking I'd look for something else.

ON TOP OF IT ALL fire alarms constantly ringing at all times of the nigh 2am-3am , and when they decide to fix them they decided it was smart idea to start ringing alarms at 7 am in the morning interrupting anyone that sleep during the day (me) ! hey just a nurse that works night shift , and after its been my third day with no sleep I decided to call and, all front desk had to tell me that it was for our safety thar it'll happen for the rest of the WEEK . I curious to know why this couldn't be rang at a reasonable time for the people that pay 2,800 of rent I should be able to sleep in atleast till 11 a, I can give a fuck about an alarm being fixed at the time of my sleep.i have never lived in a building that has so little compassion for THEIR TENANTS ! and it has so many problems with the alarm , maybe the building should be shut down if the the system needs a WEEK for fixing. Also the building was built so fast that's probably another reason why the alarms Continues to go off, only two small elevators so your furniture will Not fit in the elevator if it's not measured or you will have to move your couch/ furniture up the stairs because they couldn't even provide their tenants with an industrial elevator to make it easier for move in day. just waiting for lease to be over , sick of giving these people my money and they I can't even sleep in my own apartment.

Mike was always responsive to our concerns and our tenants' needs, ensuring the house was consistently rented for top dollar and well-maintained. Their attention to detail and professionalism provided us with peace of mind, knowing our home was in excellent hands. To make their services really needed, we ended up being rotated to another state upon our return and GPM was instrumental in make sure the house was in show condition for open houses!!! We are incredibly grateful for their outstanding service and commitment.

If you have to live in close quarters , I want management to be firm, professional and upfront so that it minimizes neighbor conflicts and/or irritations.

Living at Den Rock has been nothing but disappointing. Upon move in (in a newly renovated…read moreapartment), we had to place upwards of 10 work orders within the first two weeks. Orders ranged from our front door lock being installed upside down to there being a metal fan with sharp blades uncovered in the common entryway. There have been additional safety concerns here as well, such as our entire building smelling like marijuana on a daily basis, sometimes as early as 8 AM on weekdays. The smell frequently comes into our unit, either through pipes, the front door, or through connecting walls. Windows do not stay open to properly ventilate the common areas. We have been told the same information from property management for months regarding the tenants that continuously smoke indoors and no progress has been made on any resolution. The lease states this is a smoke free community when in reality it is not - falsely leading tenants to believe this community is family friendly. Last summer the community pool turned green. Windows in the gym do not all properly open to ventilate the area. Parking spaces are small - if a car is parked next to you, it is nearly impossible to get a child out of their car seat. Snow removal is chaotic and not adequately done. We have voiced our concerns to maintenance, property management, and Fairfield Residential. Our concerns were met with disregard and lack of professionalism. I would urge families to think twice before moving here.

What a wonderful apartment complex. We are signing our second lease, since we weren't ready to…read morepurchase a home quite yet, and it was a no brainer to stay here at River Pointe. We could have decided to go somewhere closer to work but the service we get here is extraordinary. June is a real treasure, she truly cares about the tenants and will do everything in her power to make sure they are well taken care of. The apartments themselves are cozy with a good amount of natural light. I love the walk-in closets and the choice to have vinyl flooring throughout the apartment is great. A little pantry in the kitchen has proven useful and a good space-saver. I love the balconies and how we are able to walk to Den Rock Park. We do not have any complaints regarding the snow removal, they have been prompt and efficient. It's great that they have the option for a garage and a fireplace. Rent is definitely cheaper in Lawrence than in North Andover, but you are practically living in North Andover so it's a win-win. Reading the previous reviews, I do agree that the parking spots are a little tight and if someone parks incorrectly, it definitely throws the other spots off, it can be a little irritating.
