Resident 2012 - 2014

6/13/2014

Most people only write about something when they're really mad, or had a great experience. Here's a bit of both. I had a previous apartment with a roommate about 6 years ago. I moved back home, got some financial things straightened out, then moved into a one bedroom at Cambridge. For my first apartment completely on my own, it was a decent size, not huge, but just right for me. 2 walk in closets in my bedroom, a walk-in pantry, linen and coat closet. LOTS of storage. The carpet seemed updated but the apartments themselves were built in the 70;s I think so they're just older. Everything is neutral to give it a fresh look. I didn't have any problems until the last 6-8 months of my lease. THen it all went to s**t. A neighbor moved in and smoked pot continuously. So much that when my furnace turned on, it brought their SMOKE into my living room. I don't smoke so this was gross and annoying. I called the cops 3 times, and the neighbor across from them called once. The policy is 3 cop calls you're evicted. Theresa in the office then informed me that there had to be 3 cop calls made to be evicted for disturbing the peaceful occupancy of others. (you do the math). At that point I was moving out in 4 weeks. Once I had all of my things out, I made sure to deep clean the place. I cleaned regularly but I scrubbed the bathroom, kitchen -fridge and oven too-, and even dusted the blinds. I only had a 50 fee for carpet in one closet from a stain - my cat peed once. They sent me the invoice and took that fee plus the last month's utility bill from my deposit and I would receive about 200 back. Nancy called me on the 30 of May to go over the last months utility rates - which were extremely high and I had turned the heat DOWN since I wasn't there the last 3 weeks of the lease- and that my deposit check was being mailed from the corporate office and should arrive as early as monday the 2nd of June. It;s the 13th and I still haven't received it. I called today and spoke with Theresa. She basically has written me off and gave me complete attitude. Downright disrespectful. "Um no, your check won't be written until next week, so don't expect it until week after next" When I asked why another employee gave me false information, "Well I don't know who told you that, Only Nancy and I know that information." Nancy told me. so all in all... you make the judgement on what to do here. The crime rate around the area is drastically worse than when I moved in 2 years prior. make the decision that you're willing to literally live with.
