Bywater Mutual Homes

I first moved to Bywaters with my mom and siblings in 2011 when I was a junior in high school. Fast forward a couple of years to September 2015 and my sister and I applied for our own place in this neighborhood and were accepted. What I can say about this place is ‘don’t judge a book by its cover’. Not even the cover because Bywaters is a lot more decent in appearance than a lot of other affordable rental properties in Annapolis. Everytime I’ve had someone drop me off, be it a taxi service or… Uber, they’ve always commented about how the property looks nice. The thing that turns people off is the rep this neighborhood has and the people they see walking around. I’ve had nothing but friendly encounters with people and neighbors. I really live by the mentality that you get what you put out into the world, and as someone who’s lived in two different parts of the property, I’ve had nothing but good things to say about my neighbors. As for the rental office staff, we have had issues but none that they haven’t tried their best to fix and resolve. Again if you put your part and comply with what they need from you as a tenant you will get the same treatment in return. Communicate your needs respectfully and you will get cooperation! Overall this is an affordable place that has what you need to live comfortably. We have a washer/dryer, a nice sized kitchen, a decent living space, and maintenance has always repaired anything we have asked (they even came in one early morning to get a bird out of the house that managed to get in). The only thing that I think would hold people back is the maybe outdated appliances (but I mean you get what you pay for) and the neighborhoods rep. My sister and I are college students, both with full time jobs, so personally this place has been a God send for us. Affordable and decent living. Read More
