Resident 2009

7/22/2009

I lived there for almost 2 years and it turned into a horrible place to live. The apartment quality itself is horrible. 20 year old appliances, cupboard doors that don't line up, bad installation of blinds and just cheap everything. The apartment I lived in was always extremely hot during the summer and freezing in winter. Poor insulation and a large, hard to lock, sliding glass door will cause you to suffer from the weather. The area is pretty poor as well. 35th ave is a VERY loud street. It is the main route for emergency crews trying to get around lake city way so you will hear loud cars and emergency vehicles all the time. You will also hear quiet conversations of pedestrians below if you are near the street. The grounds are very poorly maintained and the hallways reek of animal urine and just weird smells. Its awful coming home everyday walking through a horribly stinky hallway. The garage is overpriced and dangerous. If the power goes out good luck getting your car out of the garage, they locked the emergency release for the door. It is barely "controlled' as their website puts it. There have been numerous break ins, even more than the previous poster reported. I never felt safe in that apartment complex. The complex has gone through 3 managers since I lived there and each promised a lot, but never delivered. They are very hard to get ahold of in person, either they are out of the office during posted hours or a nosy neighbor will be in the office chatting. Its very unprofessional and awkward when you need to talk to the manager about something important. They also tried to raise our rent 13% before we moved. All in all, this place is definitely not for you. Essex property trust is a horrible management company and I will never ever consider renting from them again.
