Save yourself the trouble - this place is overpriced with incompetent management. Despite having reasonably thick walls for an apartment complex, many residents are obnoxious and will play music and make noise well into the night on weekdays and weekends (most likely due to its proximity to Brandeis University). Management simply doesn't care even with multiple police complaints - they're only interested in $$$$. Perry is quite simply the worst property manager I've ever encountered. Additionally, there is PLENTY of parking in the parking garages, but the management insists on charging a huge amount for a space, resulting in garages that are 2/3rds empty while the residents have to park illegally or park blocks away. As others have stated, they will try to increase your rent at least 15% every year you live there. Don't pay - they'll eventually come down if you hold out long enough.
Longview place is in a great location between 128 and the Mass Pike while not being far from Moody St, and the maintenance staff is generally friendly and responds well. However, for the same price you can find better housing in the same general area.
Pros:
-Maintenance staff responds quickly to problems
-Good location
Cons:
-Management staff
-Noisy neighbors
-Lack of parking despite plenty of available space
-Overpriced apartments
