Resident 2008 - 2010

3/29/2010

i noticed that the other review were not current. Being that our lease is up in April, we are SOOO excited to move out!! We've been here since May 2008 and if we could've moved out in 2009, we DEF would have! Sicne we've been here in 2 years, they've had 3 leasing ladies in the office. The unfortunate 1 bedroom apt we have been stuck with in this complex is in Building 7. If you are looking into this place and they offer you building 7 SAY NO!!! our 1 bedroom is on the 1st floor, which was a BIG mistake. Since we moved in here, our upstairs neighbor has been nothing but pure trouble! They let anyone live here. She doesn't even pay rent upstairs, cause the state pays for her, and we are paing $925 for the apt. What makes it worse it that the rent was lowered recently for new tenants. Our neighbor upstairs has FLOODED out apt 3x, yes THREE times in the last 2 years. The last one was so bad, that I slipped, sprained my hand, and my apt was drenched in water. The tenant upstairs has AT LEAST 30 noise complaints through the police here for loud music, fights with guys upstairs, ect. In the spring/summer we see nothing but young kids out at 11pm screaming so loud it wakes you up. Maintainence crew here is very nice, but they know us by heart with all the issues this apt had. The floods, the front door getting stuck to where it won't open, the window sill breaking, the heat dying, electricity problems where some lights just randomly die while the other lights work (took 2-3 wks to fix this problem), ect. Another neighbor kept her dog out on the porch in a cage while she went to work, and that dog barked from 3-6am everyday. IF YOU DONT HAVE UP TO DATE INSPECTION AND CAR REGISTRATION....they WILL TOW YOU! It will be towed and cost you AT LEAST $300. In the winter it takes them at least 3-4 days minimum to even begin to shovel and plow the parking lot and sidewalks. Also, I always see the cops in here. nosie complaints, fire alarms, theft, ect. This past winter theives were breaking into everyones cars by using remote keys to unlock whatever cars they could and stealing cds, money, gps, ect. A man passed away in his apt behind out building. There was a cat lady in the same building whose apt was covered in smoke and cat hair. Not to mention that in Building 7, the water keeps getting shut off, often without notification. Must've been at least 12 times in the 2 years. Someone will have a water leak at another apt, and they shut it off without notice, often while your in the shower, doing dishes, ect. They just put in a new water heater in this building, only for it to do nothing. lol. It often takes 12 hours for the water to come back on. A lady on hooper ave a few months ago, swirved and hit an electricity pole, knocking it down completely. It took out power to all of Brick Gardens, Brick Estates, and several blocks. Took 2 days to fix the power andwe didnt get reimbursed for spoiled food, blockout supplies (candles, ect) or anything. So all in all I would never reccomend this place or move back here.
