Woodvale Apartments

So I have been here over a year now. For the first several months there were no noise complaint. Now for the past 4 months, I have been having sleepless night along side with my neighbors. The shopping center across the street keeps making noise in the wee hours nearly everyday. Its keeping us awake. The front office said they can't do anything about it which is very unfortunate. I have resulted to researching the companies contact info that have trash getting pick up between 2am to 5am, with… no regards to people who live there. The fact that residence have to contact them and not the front office is the disappointing part. Hopefully the front office see this message and actually do something and report what they did so we residents can see it and know that they are actually working for the residents. Read More

The new property manager, young and ambitious but lacking in people skills, can be quite irritating as he strives to impress his bosses. Fortunately, the rest of the team, especially the maintenance crew, is friendly. However, the constant eagerness to extract money from residents is evident. Installing a designated electric charging station $$$, in already crowded parking lot, when none of the residents own electric cars, is just plain comical.

Don’t spend your money!!! For an entire year, there were rodents, bats, and roaches. This place is a money maker and you will be the only one loosing out.

The crime rate is very high in this area, unbeknownst to me before moving, there had been some muggings and vandalism in this area.


Parking - Very predatory.. you are required to register your guests vehicle ONLINE and had them a physical pass to display on the vehicle. if you miss one of these steps, your vehicle will be towed and its $150 to recover, bear in mind the company that handles the online portal cannot be reached after 5pm so you're out of luck if the system has a glitch(this… happens). GOOD LUCK finding street parking outside the community, it stays packed and the chances of your car getting broken into are high.

Noise - The teenagers constantly stay in the hallways and WILL NOT give way even when they see you coming with groceries.

Creaking Floors - I'm not sure how old these apartments are but i have been here for a few months and i regret moving here, it's the biggest loss i have taken this year: i hear every step the neighbor takes above me and it is LOUD! every step; i never had sleep issues but now i have to take Melatonin and Nyquil sometimes just to SLEEP.

Pests - I keep the apartment in pristine shape but i have had issues with mice running in the living room when i had a guest over; that's when i found out i had mice, super embarrassing, AND YOU CAN HEAR THE MICE IN THE WALLS ALSO. Add roaches to the mix and it's an animal kingdom.

Upkeep - it's been one issue after the other but they do show up on time; the washer dumped a load of water on the floor twice, the washer is literally being held together with wires as we speak, it’s laughable.

Overall: I spend less time in my apartment because i hate it so much, i am waiting for the lease to be over so i can disappear far away from this mess.
