915 Main Apartments

Rent is cheap for a reason - elevators don’t work for months at a time, units infested with roaches and bed bugs, gym equipment broken, and the occasional homeless person sleeps in the gym in the basement.

The term “too good to be true” applies to any and all PMC Property groups.

Prior to moving in, our bathroom was infested with ants. We’ve dealt with ongoing leaking from the roof and windows (which management has known since June and has not done anything to rectify — always giving the excuse that it’s the contractors or they have to wait to hear back from the higher ups). Now we have mold underneath the floorboards and on the walls because of the leaks and because our neighbor’s HVAC flooded....

The roof leaked so badly outside of the trash room it caused one of the elevators to be out for weeks. And I don’t even want to think about what disgusting mess is in the carpet.

The property “manager” Jeanne is NEVER available and never returns called, and Maria the “assistant” property manager will give you an attitude anytime you ask for help. She will also say she cannot do anything because she’s only the assistant.

These apartments could be the best thing in Hartford, but it’s the management that will run this place to the ground. Honestly, invest your money somewhere else because until an entirely new management takes over, this place will never get any better. Read More

The management is terrible. We asked for fixes in our apartment so many times to no avail. There were bedbugs when we moved in (costing us 2 beds). The building elevator was broken 50% of the time. This was an issue for us considering we lived on the EIGHTH floor.

As if living there wasn’t bad enough, moving out was an absolute nightmare. On the last day of my lease, when I turned in my keys, they told me that they had already auto renewed my lease two months ago. They gave me the option to... either continue living in the apartment for a year with increased rent or turn in all of my keys and continue to pay rent until they find someone to replace me (in addition to having to pay a break lease fee for a lease I didn’t sign).

Pay careful attention to all the sketchy things they hide in the lease or be prepared to lawyer up. I’ve lived in multiple apartments in the past and this is by far the worst renting experience I’ve ever had.

If you enjoy getting woken up by fire alarms at random times of the night, living with bed bugs and roaches, living in suffocating or freezing temperatures, walking 15 minutes before you get to your car, getting your packages stolen constantly, and getting harassed by homeless people outside then this is the perfect building for you.

Our unit is okay with big bathrooms and high ceilings, but all finishes are cheap with stained carpets, poorly installed laminate floors and poorly maintained common areas like hallways and garbage areas. There are tenants in the building who smoke indoors, several incidents of puke in the hallways, and multiple tenants who allow their dogs to defecate in the halls and stairways - Accidents happen, but apparently these (several) tenants don't find it their responsibility to clean up after.

My... biggest issues living here for the past few years have been with PMC - Their office staff is completely unresponsive and uncommunicative. It's gotten SLIGHTLY better over the past few months with a staff changeover, but there is still very little proactive communication and repairs take months (if they're even addressed in the first place). But hey, they started some random newsletter to promote virtual yoga class and 'health tips" during the pandemic so maybe that's enough for you!

The elevators and alarm system are often broken, as is the HVAC system. For prospective renters, be aware that from April to October you'll have access to AC but not heat, and vice versa during the other half of the year - This isn't super uncommon but the property descriptions often leave this out. Also, expect to pay $250-$350 per month for electric as the HVAC fan in your unit runs off your meter.

Cheapest 2-bedroom option downtown, but you'll get what you pay for. Read More
