Rittenhouse Hill

I have been living at Rittenhouse Hill Apartments for almost three years, and this has been one of the most disappointing rental experiences.
• Security is a joke. My car has been stolen from the parking lot twice. Management claims there are cameras, but they refuse to show residents the footage. They will only release blurry, low-quality images to the police or to your insurance company. This provides no real safety for tenants. Meanwhile, we are forced to pay $50 a month for parking with no... guaranteed spot, no real protection, and a high risk of theft.
• Management is unprofessional. Whenever tenants ask for help, they respond with disrespect, yelling, or acting as if we live here for free instead of paying expensive rent.
• Amenities are poorly maintained. The elevators are constantly broken, the pool is sometimes dirty, the tennis court net is torn, the gym has only a couple of working machines, and the barbecue area is dirty and broken. For the rent we pay, this is unacceptable.
• Neglect over safety. Even the police officer who filed my report told me that years ago the building had night security patrols and thefts were much lower. Management cut costs, removed security, and residents are left to deal with the consequences.

For the amount of money tenants pay, this complex does not provide even the basics: safety, respect, or reliable amenities. I will not be renewing my lease, and I strongly warn others to think twice before moving here.

Stay safe!!!! It is not a safe place to live ?????

Attention all fellow Susquehanna International Group Employees and Drexel students/graduates. Please steer away of this apartment.

Scam alert. Warning to all potential renters. Management can charge upwards of 5k in move-out charges, related to preexisting damages and fraudulent charges.

I strongly advise against renting from Rittenhouse Hill Apartments due to their dishonest and predatory move-out practices. After living in the apartment for two years, I was hit with unfair charges totaling $815, despite thoroughly documenting the unit’s poor condition when I moved in.

I provided my Move-In Inspection Sheet, which clearly recorded pre-existing damage, yet management completely ignored this and falsely claimed the damage occurred during my tenancy.

When I tried to dispute the... charges, management was dismissive, refusing to acknowledge my documentation and instead insisting their charges were justified. Worse, I later found out from the new tenant that the so-called “necessary replacements” never even happened! That means they’re flat-out stealing money from tenants by charging for fake replacement.

If you’re considering moving here, be prepared to fight for your security deposit and deal with a management team that lacks integrity. I will be escalating this matter to the Fair Housing Commission to investigate their unethical business practices. Rent elsewhere if you value honesty and fair treatment. Read More

They have very poor quality of appliances, all the spaces are dirty most of the time and they charge you for unlocking your apartment if you locked out… the personnel behavior is unacceptable…!
