Dont Waste Your Time On This Outdated 70'S Style D

 
Reviewed by:
Review Date: 8/21/2005
Rented: From 2004 To 2005
 
My experience with the onsite management (a nasty old lady) and the rental office located in Northern Jersey has not been good at all.


I was told by the onsite management when I signed my lease that management rarely raises the rent. My rent was raised on the anniversary of my first year.


I was also told by the onsite management that my security deposit could be used as my last months rent. When I notified the management office that I would be moving and reiterated my conversation about the last months rent with the onsite management, they sharply told me that my security deposit could not be used for my last months rent. Overall experience is complete rudeness when dealing with these assholes at the main office. The head management consist of a guy who owns alot of real estate in Jersey with Garrett House being his only Pa location. He has 2 daughters who help out, one is an accountant and the other is a lawyer (which they constantly remind you of) who are all money hungry jackasses.


The building is extremely hot in the summer and cold and drafty in the winter. The bathroom is moldy and dated with no cabinet space at all. The kitchen is small and cramped with little cabinet space and dated appliances (no dishwasher) leaving room only for a small table and 2 chairs. I have a constant drip in my kitchen sink which maintenance has been here twice to fix but problem still needs to be addressed.


Electric bill is extremely high (i think its rigged) being as though I am home half the time of my neighbor and only utilize my air at night and yet my bill is (a little over $100 per mth) the same as his.


The ventilation is also poor in the building so you smell it everytime when your neighbor lights up or if someone is cooking there food in a dirty oven. The building supposdely has a cleaning woman but the hallways stink to high hell.


The owners will not exterminate and you will see an occasional (spider, waterbug, centipede) from time to time. Overall this place is not worth your money.
