Resident 2013 - 2015

11/24/2015

STAY AWAY FROM HERE! Management is great about getting people into the door and then forgetting you exist after that. I lived here for 2, almost 3 years and they lied about giving us a notice that rent was raised. The Property Manager said that he would just back date it and put it under our door and then that would be valid to make us have to go back and pay for "past due rent." Cleaning staff can rarely be seen cleaning the hallways/stairways/lobby (I lived there for almost 3 years and saw it being cleaned maybe 4 times). The Property Manager only cares about getting rent/security deposit and literally nothing else. There are 2 washers and 2 dryers on each floor, but only 2-3 in total work. They actually tried to have people write down what was wrong with them with sheets posted near the elevators, but the residents tore them down... The maintenance staff are easily the best people working here (well, 1 guy for the most part). I think the maintenance guy could manage the property a lot better... MOST residents are awful, some are fine, caring human beings. For example, my car was parked in the parking garage (uncovered spot) underneath some of the units' balcony and one morning I went out to find my car's driver side and roof and the car next to me COVERED in white spots of paint, which cost me $170 to get removed. I was a painter for 3 years and the only way that could have happened was by spinning a brush with paint on it to or whipping it back and forth quickly to dry it after painting or using an airbrush to paint and the wind catches the beads of paint. I swear I smelled paint nearby. I realize there is only so much a landlord can do and I'm not saying this is their fault, because it is not, but this gives you an idea of the residents that live here... Fast forward to now: 3 months after I moved out. I have not seen anything regarding my security deposit - not even the itemized deductions for items they want to remove from security deposit refund. I spoke with a lawyer and before we even got started he asked if the landlord was Malden Towers/Carrabetta management. I said yes, that is correct. Turns out he has 2 other pending cases for the same situation. To summarize, these guys focus on getting you to sign the lease and in the door and then don't do anything to improve resident satisfaction and then once you want to leave, they make it as difficult as possible.
