Current Resident of Hill Point Woods Apartments. Been here since 2012…read more I STRONGELY Recommend NOT living here. LOTS OF PROBLEMS: 1. Bugs. There are so many BUGS that infest the apartment its unbelievable. I had to put down glue traps to see how many I can catch. And in just 1 day I caught 3 -4 per glue trap. THAT MANY! They were in our couch, shoes, and even Bed. 2. Privacy. They come into your apartment WITHOUT your permission. 2 instances happened. So one day the apartment complex sent us in a damage notice... telling us there was damage to our door frame inside our apartment. There was cause our dog damaged it. But I asked my wife how would they know cause they weren't in our apartment. Then on the letter they said they noticed the damage on a day me and my wife were both at work. That got me upset cause Im not OK with people coming into my apartment inspecting things. 2 instance. Wife was home alone, and just got out of the shower. She was walking to the bedroom when the door just suddenly opened... turns out it was them coming to inspect something. Didn't even knock. 3. Stupidity. So my wife took out the garbage one day. As she approached the bin she noticed it was full to the brim, so she put the bags she was carrying on the side of the trash bin. We then get a notice from the management telling us we owe them $75 for the bags we left outside of the trash bin. When we confronted them about what we were supposed to do with the trash? They told us to put it back in the house. LOL. 4. Mail. If you live here forget about packages from US Mail. The mail man is so lazy here he just drops em off at the main office where you have to go and get it. The Apartment Complex allows this. UPS and Fed Ex still do their job and deliver to your door. 5. CHEAP thermostat. The thermostat they give you is something you buy for a $ 1 at The Dollar store. Its that cheap. Doesn't even work. In winter we have to play with it hoping it turns on. Sometimes you have to wait 30 min for it to start. What I find shocking is this place is more expensive than my previous apartment which I paid a lot less yet got a WORKING thermostat. 6. ULTIMATE STUPIDITY. So if your late 1 month on your utilities the apartment complex takes over your account. They don't tell you this, so you keep paying the Utility company. SO what happens is we got a letter saying we owe HUNDREDS of dollars in utilities. You can imagine how mad we were when we said we've been paying. We had the bills to prove it. The apartment complex says that your supposed to pay them if your late once. So we have to work with the utility company to get back money we been paying them and instead give it to the apartment complex. HOW STUPID IS THIS! Im STRONGELY recommend.... DO NOT LIVE HERE! The management office goes through personnel like water. Every 2 months they have new people. I can imagine these practices are why the turnover rate is so bad.

Maintenance has been a breeze and I haven't had any poor experiences with any office staff.

There is a Valet trash service, but only on certain nights at certain times, and must not have specific items in the trash bags. You will be warned, then fined more and more each further offense.

SCAMMERS AND THIEVES…read more I've always tried to find the positive of every living situation I am in. The only positive of this complex is the view of the lake. I have never been treated so poorly in a place that I have paid to be. I have a scar on my leg that came about while trying to move maintenance equipment away from my front door so that I can exit my apartment. The equipment in question was a ladder and HVAC ducts from our apartment that were being fixing...but were left, for 3 hours, and only returned after we called the office to ask when they would finish fixing our air conditioning...while it was over 90 degrees outside... I lived with a barely operational toilet (the plumbing is terrible), and the only assistance I got was being taught how to "correctly" use a plunger until finally admitting that there was an issue with the tank. Also, hot water was a commodity that was difficult to come by...after 10 minutes in the shower the water ran cold. I resorted to taking baths to retain as much hot water as possible. The office staff provided inadequate maps and information on apartments when asked. They were unaware of which breeds were acceptable in the complex, which led to issues with a possible pet adoption. The maintenance staff are self-admittedly "lazy" (an apt description) and rude. The office staff are ill trained on policy or procedure, and often possess the attitude of a person that couldn't care less if problems are solved as long as it doesn't negatively affect them. The property management will see nothing but dollar signs when they are near you, and will do everything in their power to charge you with every fee imaginable. No security deposit is safe from these creative swindlers. My roommate and I were excited to move out. The move out process felt like a shake-down at best. We were told contradicting information from staff and management, we had to pay cleaning and painting fees (after cleaning and painting the apartment), and were charged a "carpet probate fee" that essentially charged us around $14 a month to use the carpet and contribute to replacing it due to it being "very worn and matted". No mention of stains, tears, or any other damage besides normal wear and tear. We were treated poorly during the move out evaluation...with the property management attempting to intimidate my roommate and I at every turn. What was most upsetting is that the staff attempted to imply we were being unreasonable by resisting the additional fees by saying "We are only doing our job". However...when we paid rent for over a year, where were they then? Why didn't they do their jobs when we needed them? The answer is simple...they wanted to help themselves to our money more than they wanted to help us.

This is because our neighbor below us has made several false claims about noise, what's worse is that we were not notified about the majority of these claims. Apparently your neighbor can claim anything they want, and the staff will just take there word for it. Will they give you a chance to defend the claims?.... NO!! So we received our notice to vacate, and at this point I'm over it. I will gladly leave. However, now they are telling me that we are obligated to pay the rent until someone else rents the unit, or until our lease runs out?!?!? They are the ones terminating the lease, not us!... How are we going to be able to afford rent for two places from September till December??? This place is terrible, the maintenance staff takes days to service any request, field mice are constancy finding there ways in to our apartment. There are little black ants that never go away, and now we are being asked to leave but still pay in full for the next 4 months if no one occupies the unit? This is beyond ridiculous, How can you treat a military family like this? This is unethical, and unbelievable. Stay far away if you are looking for a apartment for your family.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Unfortunately, my experience living at this property has been…read moreextremely disappointing and unprofessional from start to finish. The maintenance response is unacceptable. I have had a visible water leak in my ceiling for over five months, and despite submitting maintenance requests, no one has come to inspect or repair the issue. Even worse, the requests are repeatedly marked as "resolved" when no action has been taken. This raises serious concerns about potential mold growth, which is a major health and safety issue. Ignoring a problem of this nature is not only irresponsible but unsafe for tenants. The management office has also been very discouraging to deal with. The staff is consistently rude and dismissive, and it becomes clear that once the lease is signed, tenant concerns are no longer treated with respect or urgency. Communication is poor, and there is a clear lack of accountability when issues are reported. Safety is another major concern. There appears to be little to no concern regarding cars being broken into on the property. These incidents are not addressed in a way that makes residents feel secure or supported, which is extremely troubling. Additionally, the heating system does not work properly. This is a basic necessity, and failure to provide reliable heat makes the living conditions even more unacceptable. While S.L. Nusbaum Realty Co. may manage other properties well, this particular location is severely mismanaged. The lack of follow-through, disregard for tenant safety, and failure to maintain habitable living conditions have made this a very negative experience. I will not be renewing my lease, nor would I recommend this property to anyone. I am very disappointed and strongly urge prospective tenants to consider these issues before signing a lease.

How many roaches does it take to count as an infestation?…read more This is a real question I have as I am ending my lease here. We had a serious roach problem here through the majority of our time there. I guess I should have been more worried when we moved in and had dead bugs everywhere. However, I was deep into my third trimester and in a new state. I submit no less than 4 requests for roach control and the only reason it stopped was the snow on the grounds. We must have seen no less than 50 roaches. By the time it warmed up and the roaches were back, we had moved. After the place was professionally cleaned and all of the furniture was gone, we still saw 9 more roaches. Ironically, after I discussed this with the management staff and the pest control company, it was remarked that this isn't the building they "normally" have issues with roaches. Also, be careful about the post move out charges. Frankly, if I had more time, I would fight the obscurity of needing to pay to replace their beige carpet.

Today my mom and I were supposedly served a notice of non-renewal. This letter is a product of…read moreincompetence and a lack of accountability by a corporation that has always cared about the bottom dollar in opposition to residential satisfaction. For over 20 years I have lived in apartments across VA. My mom has 20+ years in addition to me. We have barely even been acquainted with the offices of most apartments in which we've resided, both together and separately, but still maintained amicable enough relations to comfortably coexist with one another. My mom is a hardworking, kind-spirited, loyal, prideful and spiritual woman deserving of all of her flowers. A crooked head manager hiding behind her arrogance and complacent minions in the front office are no testament to my mom's character. We have spent 3 years exhaustively reaching out to resolve residential conflict that we pay INCREASED RENT IN THE MIDST OF A PANDEMIC to have addressed. Instead of conflict resolution or even visiting our unit experiencing problems ongoing, my emails were literally counted (as if emailing residential management about residential conflict/their breaches of lease is a crime) and ignored. The manager gaslit my mental health to a courtesy officer that she sent to my home after ONE single phone call pleading to diffuse neighborly conflict I had withstood for over 2 years prior to finally calling in. The officer literally heard me out and understood where I was coming from, he was kind and attentive to the issues that were still left unresolved by management after he left. To save face, they assured him that they would get to the bottom of everything and continue to fake reviews and sugarcoat testimonials on their website. My current upstairs neighbors were allowed to freely harass my mom with their noise and then send a fire marshall to our home after making a false claim that "she thought our residence was catching fire." We have about 4 smoke alarms, regularly tested, that uttered not a single sound. The aforementioned neighbors have had a problem with the poor insulation I have LONG complained about on a regular basis for 3 years. Now I have a crazed woman fighting my ceiling, surveying my movement and calling the fire department because they can hear the plumbing and the air ducts through the walls. Management has ignored any provisions to their units and any valid criticisms from residence who overpay their meal tickets and for the first time in over 5 decades between my mom and I living in apartments, we are being threatened to leave. We are entitled to our rent refunded for the emotional distress and breach of ordinances that apartment management and residents alike have inflicted upon us considerably during our stay. My grandfather, the finest of gentleman and twice-survived Vietnam veteran who raised me to be a resilient but loving woman, just died on me. I spent every year I've lived here taking care of both my grandparents while my mom worked to take care of us all and still had to deal with the backwash of issues that the apartment management to whom we pay rent should have handled. Do not move here under any circumstance. Your money and your mental health will be siphoned without a second thought. The management is sheer evil.

It was clean, odor free, and well appointed. The seating area on the ground floor is currently closed due to COVID. We are hoping that within the near future it will be re-opened. Unfortunately, the roof top deck access available for all the residents is also closed. This is disappointing but I'm sure that they're complying with the governors directives and it will be made available again soon. Our 8th floor flat in this circa 1904 building was as expected. Nicely laid out and spic and span. Dimensions not exactly what we had calculated but we were able to move our furniture around a bit and made it work. Since we've been here we've a couple of minor issues. We were extremely impressed by the way they were dealt with. Literally, within hours which was greatly appreciated. The system that the leasing company use has a multitude of capabilities from submitting work orders, to paying for rent and utilities. Since COVID-19, and until recently, the gym was shut due comply with the governors recommendations. The gym is now open, albeit at a smaller capacity, the leasing company is making a concerted effort to re-open it. It's necessary to book a gym session for the moment and that can be accomplished via the app. So, thanks to KimEdwards and her colleagues, so far, we're happy with our little flat. We hope that the roof top desk on the Virginia Building will be open soon so we can see the sites offered by this lovely city. The location of this building is incredible. Surrounded by water, parks, shops, restaurants....Who could ask for anything more. As I said above, we've only been here 6 weeks and hope that things continue to be very satisfactory.
