Resident 2007 - 2008

2/22/2008

I am extremely dissappointed with Riverwind. The first few months of our lease were fine, but the last few months have been progressively worse. AIMCO did a sufficient job managing the complex back in 2007. However, B&H Management must be one of the most incompetent, slack management companies on the face of the earth! After one of the buildings burnt down back in 2007, the building was left to rot in its hazardous condition for over three months. In my opinion, that is totally unacceptable. The complex has a lot of HUD residents that do not appreciate the property. I have witnessed multiple parts of the property vandalized or broken due to delinquents running around. B&H is pathetic when it comes to organization. They barge into your apartment under false pretenses. If they actually bothered looking at your lease, they would not need to "Audit" things. Most importantly, they harass residents who actually pay rent. I know these audits are for HUD residents. Why did they barge into my apartment? I actually pay rent...That is unacceptable! The walls are paper thing in this complex. You can hear everything that your next door neighbor does. If you are in a bottom unit, God help you! Our neighbor sounds like she is doing gymnastics above us. However, she is only walking! I can't believe they spent so little on sound reducing materials... The property has been neglected since B&H took over. The grass is cut less frequently, and the bushes are never trimmed. They could do so much more with the landscaping if they wanted to. However, they just let fall into severe mediocrity. The buildings are showing signs of neglect too. They need to clean the siding or paint. It is ridiculous. They also fail to replace multiple light bulbs that create safety lighting. One building is almost in complete darkness at night. That is a rape/murder/mugging waiting to happen! One major downfall of Riverwind is that B&H decided to merge the complex with Essex Park. They plan on changing the name of both complexes into one name. This is a tragedy! Essex Park has its own laundry list of problems, and I can only imagine how bad it will be now that B&H manages both properties... As for management, they are NEVER EVER at the office. They never want to help you, and the maintenance staff is incompetent. If you ever have an emergency at night, you are screwed. You'll be lucky if you get a guy that speaks English. The managers act like every resident is an annoyance. It's frustrating because we are paying them to be there. I can't stress to you how much the staff just does not care..period! For your own sake, please stay away from this place. This complex will be receiving a new name, but you should not let the new name deceive you. It will still have the same problems. The complex is not worth the money or the stress. It is also in a declining neighborhood. I constantly worry about my safety. I wish I knew what I know now when I was signing the lease. I can't stress enough..STAY AWAY!!! We left the complex not too long ago. There are so many other places with decent rent to live. Trust me! I don't want anyone else to go through what my roommate and I went through. Try the east side of town. It's a lot better! :-)
