THE VANTAGE APARTMENTS

I lived here for 2 years and it was absolutely awful. I couldn't wait to move out.

This place is disgusting. Don't believe anything positive that you see about this place, and if you go on an apartment tour, pay attention to how filthy the common areas of the buildings are. If they can't even take care of those areas, imagine how little they care about addressing potential maintenance issues that you may have in your own unit :)

Highlight of my 2 years there was when pipes all around the… building exploded due to maintenance negligence during a winter storm. Power had to be shut off by the fire department, and we were kicked out of the building for 4 days. Guess how much rent was reimbursed? NONE - lol. And we as residents even had to foot the increase water bill from the pipes spraying water everywhere due to the ridiculous SUDS water bill system that they have in place.

I also like the time that I picked up over 30lbs of dog poop from around the building grounds due to moronic residents and The Vantage not taking care of it. They had the health department called on them multiple times because of the dog poop. They never picked it up, so I took it upon myself to pick it all up because I couldn't find clean grass to walk my dog in. Took 4 hours and weighed almost 30lbs.

And if you don't like the smell of cigarettes and weed...stay away from this place. Don't like the smell of trash? Stay away. Don't like the smell of mold? (They never did any mold removal after the pipes exploded - just painted over the stains. The walls and ceilings are surely full of mold) .... stay away.

Anyways...don't live here. So happy that I got out of this place. Read More

Living here has been a frustrating experience. Since the day I moved in, the HVAC system has not worked, leaving the apartment uncomfortable and unfit at times. Despite repeated requests, management has been slow to respond and has failed to resolve this basic issue.

To make matters worse, I still do not have a working mailbox key weeks after moving in. This has prevented me from receiving important mail and packages, which is unacceptable for any apartment community.

The lack of communication… and urgency from management shows a disregard for residents’ needs. Reliable heating/cooling and access to mail are fundamental, and the failure to provide them makes this a very disappointing place to live. Read More

The most terrible apartments in Beechwood. Nobody wants to repair anything. Water has been pouring from the neighbor's ceiling for 3 months. They can't repair the dishwasher for a month. The heater broke down three times over the winter. They don't take out the garbage well. A lot of flies. If they find your envelope with the address in the trash, they try to charge you for throwing the garbage in the wrong place. When talking to them in the office, they leave the answers. The police are often… called. The police told me that they come here most often. There are the most problems here. I don't recommend it at all. This is the last year of life in this apartment. It's getting worse every year, and the prices are getting higher. It's a ghetto! Read More

AVOIDDD THIS PLACE!

My husband and I moved here in January, and it has been a nightmare ever since. During the tour, they show you a beautiful community room and other “nice” areas to create a fake image of a well-maintained, welcoming place. Don’t fall for it.

In reality, everything in this complex is falling apart. Since we moved in, we have dealt with:

Basement flooding, water even went through the wall all the way to the 5th floor. We had to be evacuated for hours.

Constant utility… issues, including no hot water or no water for days sometimes

Terrible maintenance, with requests ignored for weeks at a time.

Our current situation is the worst. We reported water dripping over a month ago. It got so bad that mold started growing, and the ceiling eventually cracked. Despite countless calls, emails, and visits to the office, they kept promising “urgent” repairs but did nothing. Only after over a month of being ignored did someone finally show up — they cut open the ceiling, but it still hasn’t been properly repaired.

To make matters worse, the building above us and the building below us are having major leaking issues too.

Once you sign the lease, they completely stop caring. There is no empathy, no accountability, and no sense of responsibility toward residents’ health and safety.

Avoid this place at all costs. Do not be fooled by the fake friendliness and staged tours. Read More
