Investments Limited: The MA office staff is rude and incompetent (Not Recommending)

2008-07-08T19:06:39-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Our first of many bad experiences with Investments Limited started the day we received the keys. Our apartment was on the 6th floor and the Cambridge manager - MANAGER - forgot to tell us that the elevator was broken. (and had been broken for weeks) After carrying our belongings up ...

Investments Limited: Nice Apartments (Recommending!)

2008-07-08T07:39:57-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Overall, 2443 is a nice building, with modern amenities and a good management team in Cambridge. Some of the units have leaks due to a faulty roof, but management is responsive and will fix problems. Parking can be a bit tricky, since brick columns supporting the structure make navigating into ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: Not the fault of the MA office (Not Recommending)

2008-07-08T03:41:10-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I used to work for this company. Believe me it is not the fault of the Cambridge office. The Florida owner of this Company will not spend money. He pays way more money trying to avoid making repairs than it would cost if he just had them taken care of. ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: Investments Limited redefines Slumlord (Not Recommending)

2008-06-10T20:16:15-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I've lived in my investments limited apartment long enough to know that these guys are crooks. If you call them for maintenance, never fail they have an excuse. It's either something else way more awful happened in some other building so they can't do yours, or oh, you didn't answer ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: (Recommending!)

2008-06-03T12:00:55-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I have lived in one of their Stoneham House apartments for two years now and they seem like fine landlords to me. In my experience they don't deserve the bad rap they are getting on this site. However, maybe the building i live in just has a better property manager. ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: Worst Landlords Ever (Not Recommending)

2008-03-24T09:14:17-06:00

From -Anonymous-: To say that investments limited sucks is an understatement. Have plumbing that doesn't work? They'll get to it in a few short weeks. Heat that doesn't work? They'll get there eventually, and won't fix it the first few times and tell you that your apartment is cold because you have ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: The worst landlords possible (Not Recommending)

2007-09-11T20:10:44-06:00

From -Anonymous-: If you live here, expect to pay high rent for endless leaks that are never fixed, slippery sidewalks that cause every tenant in the building to fall down despite citations by Cambridge Inspectional Services, and slow to no repairs. Expect to wake up repeatedly for fires in the never-maintained dryers, ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: Poor Maintenence (Not Recommending)

2007-08-16T16:23:03-06:00

From newcam: Don't move in unless the place is in perfect shape. Even the most basic requests will require hounding the office and maintenance staff. Even when you do get through to them, they're never on the same page, and you have to tell your whole life story to every person you ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: Do Not Rent From Investments Limited (Not Recommending)

2007-08-01T19:46:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Investments Limited is the worst landlord/managment company to which I have ever had the misfortune of paying rent. I can't think of a single nice thing to say about the company, the people or the apartment (aside from the fact that we are leaving it in much better shape than ...

Investments Limited: Mostly Okay, With Some Big Negatives (Recommending!)

2007-07-31T15:23:53-06:00

From -Anonymous-: What I will say that's terribly negative about them is the blatant lack of maintenance resulting in serious safety issues and tenant inconvenience.In my building, the elevator was actually shut down by the City, because the inspection had failed, and they'd not addressed the problem in the time allotted. I ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: Not too bad... (Recommending!)

2007-06-12T18:41:25-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I guess most of the people who write in are motivated by a bad experience. I'm leaving because I'm buying a condo, but have lived in two completely separate apartments in different towns with Investments Limited over the past 3 and a half years. I never had any ongoing problems ... [click to read full apartment review]

From -Anonymous-: I have rented here in Boston for over 6yrs.Things are way better than when I got here.

Investments Limited: Horrible, rude staff and poorly maintained building (Not Recommending)

2006-09-30T11:59:47-06:00

From -Anonymous-: This is THE worse management company. When I moved in, the elevator had been broken for 2 months and they didn't even say a thing about it. We had to carry our furniture up 5 flights of stairs.
I called on a Saturday to tell them that the heat wasn't ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: Atrocious - DO NOT LIVE HERE (Not Recommending)

2006-09-12T12:32:49-06:00

From stinkygoatbags: The staff is awful. The apartments are awful. Where they are not in direct violation of code, they are coming awfully close. (ie no heat in jan and feb), obnoxious staff blatantly swore and told me not to keep calling. they really, truly, deeply suck. Unless your only other option ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: Not worth the rent... (Not Recommending)

2006-09-09T23:21:31-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Unless they are offering half-price specials now.

Not a very well-maintained place. Old, dusty, dirty apartments. Try moving the oven and looking behind!

Inefficient heating system.

Dim lighting. Got my bicycle wheel stolen from right in front of the door. Bunch of kids cut through two locks after two attempts. Caught ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: WORST landlords (Not Recommending)

2006-08-07T09:18:48-06:00

From -Anonymous-: This is the WORST management company. They are rude and incompetant. They never fix anything broken, when renting my apartment would show up with people without notifing me before hand at all, and mow the lawn once a summer. ... [click to read full apartment review]

2005-11-08T09:18:40-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Property Manager is awful! I've lived in my apartment for only a few months and we're on the third property manager. Impossible to get things fixed. Promise you the world to get you to move in, but never deliver. The apartment is nice though, but I don't have any faith ... [click to read full apartment review]

Investments Limited: some improvement, but a long way to go (Not Recommending)

2005-10-31T12:01:54-06:00

From -Anonymous-: when i first moved in, IL was atrocious. For example, my heat was broken for the entire winter of 2003 - 04. The maintenance staff insisted there was no problem, however, the ice on the insides of my windows dictated otherwise. After repeated calls to fix it, the landlord told ...

Investments Limited: PRETTY BAD, BUT NOT UNBEARABLE (Not Recommending)

2005-10-24T14:27:13-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I absolutely hate my apartment, but am there because I got stuck in a very last-minute situation. Other than the maintenance guys (who could probably care less), I highly doubt that the landlord has even seen a PICTURE of this place for at least 10 years. I also doubt that ...

Investments Limited: ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE (Not Recommending)

2005-05-21T15:43:37-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Everything about this apartment and rental company is terrible. I moved from another building/rental company due to relocating and thought that this place, though it needed some TLC was perfect for me. Well, I was wrong!
The only benefit is that they accept pets.
The downsides are: The maintenance people are terrible, ... [click to read full apartment review]

2005-03-10T16:04:32-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The office people are very nice, and maintenance is responsive.

The problem is the property is old and ugly. Walls inside the apt need to be repaired, things are always breaking, the outside is dirty and full of pigeon poop on the sidewalks,etc. It's just an UGLY apartment and building. ... [click to read full apartment review]

2005-02-25T14:43:39-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I've lived here for a while now and things are ok. My building is older, but they fixed up my apartment a few months ago. Biggest grips is sending rent to Florida.

Investments Limited: YEAH RIGHT (Not Recommending)

2004-08-07T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The last reveiw was obviously written by Investments Limited Staff. There is absolutely no way anybody that lives in one of these apartments had anything good to say.

2004-05-15T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Bad experience from the start, when they lost the check for my security deposit. Then we couldn't get keys to the place. The problems continued throughout my stay. There were something like 8 breakins in the building while I lived there, but management didn't want to hear about it.

Investments Limited: Eh--crappy like all Boston apartments (Not Recommending)

2004-05-11T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I agree with all the other reviews. They don't even cash your rent check for two weeks and rarely call back (good luck reaching someone not in the "call service" even during office hours). I moved in August, still no intercom (it's May) but I love the building & location. ... [click to read full apartment review]

From investmentlimitedhater: We have had continual problems with this company and I know we are not the only ones, since the only times we speak with the neighbors is to compare notes the latest mistakes of Idiots Unlimited.

Investments Limited: Horrible, Awful, Terrible (Not Recommending)

2003-11-20T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: You do not want to deal with this company! They lie to the tennants, the employees steal from the employers (and probably from the tenants). They enter your apartment unannounced. They say they´re going to fix your place before you move in, but you´re lucky if they even remember you´re ... [click to read full apartment review]

2003-10-17T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Everything they say is true. The only good experience I had was when I dealt withone particular woman in the office. At least when she said she would get things done she did.

From -Anonymous-: The physical condition of the apartment was unacceptable upon move in.
