I agree. Stay Away!!!

I actually never moved into a Barry apartment, but I did look at a couple of models before deciding, NO WAY!!!



First off the rental prices were around $1500 for the two 2-bedroom flats I looked at. A price that could be justifiable if the places were in stellar condition.



Instead I was greeted with two very slummy looking places. The hardwood floors were stained, chipped and in dire need of replacement. The refrigerator was all rusted out on the outside and inside. Cabinets had splinters coming out and all the fixtures were old. The bathroom tub was missing a knob and the mirror was cracked, as well.



When I brought this up to the agent she said just make a list of all the things you want fixed and we?ll take care of it. That all sounded very agreeable, but I couldn?t help wonder how it even got to the condition it was in in the first place. A well-maintained apartment would have had these things fixed long ago. I decided to pass on any of their buildings. The one I looked at was around 600 Hinman (can?t remeber the exact address).



From what I?ve read of other people?s reviews I think it would be safe to stay away from this company and their buildings.
