915 Main Apartments

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.

Winter -21 degrees windchill update - my windows are frozen on the inside. See attached photos below. Still no sign of fixing the issue. We were told they would be happy to release us from the lease if the inconvenience continues :/ this is at 915 Main St. building.

The apartment is very pretty, but a heavy price to pay for the lack of care shown by the Hartford management team. I am Very disappointed. We have lived here a little over two weeks now and are already seeing the truth in the... previous poor reviews to be true. We moved into a one BR apartment in 915 Main St. and the reason we signed the lease was that we were assured a few things would get taken care of in the apartment before our move-in date. Come move in day none of that was taken care of but we were given the excuse of their maintaining team being busy with an emergency in another building and that they would take care of it later that week or first thing the following week. The next week passed and two more week after that and the issues continue. We have called the office multiple times, and people at the office say they will speak with the maintenance team and call us back but no callback. We even asked to talk to the property manager, but she is always out of the office and never calls back. One of the biggest problems is the draft in the living room from a gap running along the side of the window, and nobody has gotten back to us in over a week. This gap is causing water to accumulate all along the window frame and drip into a pool onto the ledge. They assure you maintenance issues will be taken care of within 24-48 hours and that the negative reviews are all disgruntled tenants or the fault of a previous property manager who wasn’t cut out for the job, but I am beginning to feel the promises and care shown while seeing the apartment and signing the lease is just to get you through the door and bound to the contract. We made the mistake of ignoring negative reviews but I urge whoever is moving in please make sure if you have issues you want to fix with the apartment take them down in writing, so you’re not tossed around from one office employee to another saying you will receive a call back only to wait days with no response. This is my fifth rental and never have I experienced such a laid back and unconcerned management before. I am very disappointed with this company, and considering reaching out to corporate to escalate this matter further, so it’s taken care of promptly. Read More
