Resident 2007 - 2008

3/24/2008

My boyfriend and I are in the process of moving out still. This was the worst experienve EVER. I don't even know where to start. -Ignore all rules in the lease: everyone has a dog; very few pick up after them; people feed the strays and I hear that one person leaves her door open to let the strays in and out. -We had a mold problem when we first move it and it took weeks, almost MONTH for them to just "cover up" the prolem. -I found out from my neighbor that the previous tenant had a leak and they had to replace a wall in the bathroom. Whatever they did was insufficent because the paint in the bathroom would bubble and the paint all over the apt would peel/chip off. -We would only have enough hot water at a time for about 1 1/2 quick showers. Forget about doing dishes until the hot water reset itself. -When it rained in the summer there were these little slug things all over and somehow they would get inside. -You can NOT see out the windows no matter how hard you try to clean them. - The drafts from the door and windows were so bad that our electric bill was $250 . -I gave up with calling maintenance after a while. I would have to have them over every week if I did. - Heard ample reports of break-in, drugs and -------- packing in 16 people into a one-bedroom. -Laundry facility was dirty. seldom worked. One time I washed a pair of pants and they came out dirtier than they before I washed them. Only a few dryers worked. Actually over the past month or two dryer #3 was broken- but broken in a good way. You didnt need to put money in, just put your clothes in and press start. It was run until you opened to dryer again. After a while it was hard to get that dryer because others caught on. - A month after we moved there the garbages and garbage fence burnt to the ground. Not sure if someone set it on fire or what. - We couldnt get the tv in the bedroom hooked up because the comcast guy refused to go in the crawl space to run a new set of wires. - When they repaint, they just repaint EVERYTHING. I couldnt even plug some things in because the paint was so thick around the outlet. - Found a worm on the wall and a worm on the ceiling within two days. Found dead dried up worms between the stove and the counter. We lucked out and had some nice neighbors. The one woman next to me lived there for YEARS and is now planning on getting out. Apparently about 5 years ago the kids of the owners inherited the property and it has just gone DOWN hill since then. I'm sure my boyfriend will write up his own review because I did not mention all the problems. Stay far away from this place- it should be condemned and is not the representation of red bank- middletown it should be.
