They have brought a place that was lovely to live and changed it to the dregs it was beautiful lush greenary plenty of parking , great neighbors quiet, calm . Summers having fun at the pool , having BBQ , just the place where you would want to live . Owners switch and it's become ghetto, zero parking , loud music at all hours of the night , fights , cops being called , one by one they cut down the trees, the pools are over flowing with loud kids , they made it mandatory to get rid of all bbqs , the wildlife are being forced out and poison has been put out which I can't believe that is legal people have pets , and they put poison out , the little shade we have left is being cut down right now I watched a squirrel grow from a baby and he has a nest right outside of us I can almost pet him he's a few years old and they have people cutting down the tree I'm almost in tears . These Owners are just awful people who have no heart and they have flushed this once beautiful place down the fn toilet . read more

Okay where do I start the first 3 days of me living here my ceiling fell . It took maintenance 3 months to fixed it . I never was able to put a TV up in my room in my apartment. After the ceiling was fixed the leasing office instantly started to have a problem with me . The lady (Mexican lady) I forgot her name started to be friendly with me but I'm a loner n I don't do friends . She started to come up with lies because she wanted one of my male friends that used to come over to visit but he has a family so he wasn't interested. She lied to the court n said I was having parties n having people running and out my house . I'm not even from Philly n I don't even know people to have anyone come over . I'm always at work . She told the court I had a man come tryin to pay my rent which was a lie . We went to court n the judge didn't believe her so he allowed me to get a lawyer . The judge made another court date . The next court date she lied again and said I had several men that came to pay my rent If they came to pay my rent why didn't she let them pay it. But this was all lies . She would have parties every night I have video of her friends throwing up in the hallway . From day one she always had a problem with me . I'm saying if you can go somewhere else . They charge $1400 for rent n don't like to fix anything . I saw roaches n to say I never had a problem with the lady in the office I never once gave her a reason not to like me . It was always something new . She felt like I was worried about her n I wasn't . I didn't even know when she was home I really never said two words to her . I feel like they are racist n completely made up any lie to try to get me kick out of my apartment . Please don't rent here if you're pretty . You will be hated by the leasing office .Save your money and go somewhere else . read more

DON'T MOVE HERE!!!!! It was all good until MCM Management took over. They got rid of the maintenance staff on site and now nothing gets fixed. How do you run an apartment complex and dont have maintenance on site? They continuously lie about sending maintenance out to fix your problems and they tell you that they paged them but dont know why they didnt show up. I've been waiting for over a month for my heat to be fixed and they have the nerve to overcharge me this month. Save yourself the trouble and stress and look somewhere else. I've spoken to other tenants that live here and they all do not plan on renewing their lease. read more

Had a bed bug infestation, and resolving this matter with the property manager (MCM Management) was a nightmare. Management demanded all rent payments even though apartment was uninhabitable during the several weeks and numerous visits by exterminators. Eventually the bugs drove me out of the apartment. I would not be surprised if I have future legal trouble with this property manager. Do not rent here! You do not need this kind of trouble. There are numerous apartments and property management companies in the same neighborhood with much better service and quality. All in the same price range. You have many choices. If you are looking for an apartment in the Glenolden, PA area. There are two other large property management companies who rent in that neighborhood. Home Properties and William Penn Realty Group. Not to mention the numerous smaller property managers. read more

I recently made some inquiries into apartments in the Glenolden area as I am contemplating a move. After looking through the 93 listings on the Apartment Guide website, Contemporary Villages hit my radar because of the proximity to both the rail station and international airport, so I made an appointment to preview the property. The amenities offered are reasonable and the apartment interiors newly remodelled. The grounds appear to be well-maintained and off-street parking is a bonus. Contemporary Villages is pet-friendly, which is a requirement for me as I have a small poodle. While I am not ready to pull the trigger just yet, I did put my name on the waiting list for a junior 1-bedroom apartment. So far, my experience with Contemporary Villages has been nothing but pleasant and professional, unlike a couple of other places nearby. I look forward to making a move soon. read more

Currently live here and to start off you're not allowed to decorate the little front yard that's here no flowers unless approved by the board. No grills are allowed on the property. They have terrible public grills installed. The place is ridiculously overpriced as well very small 1bdrm costing nearly $950 a month. read more

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT move here. I am a current resident at this complex and I will not be renewing my lease. MCM management does not handle anything on the property accordingly. I have lived here since last summer and everything was fine until a few months back. My neighbor is very aggressive, to the point where she has actually blocked me from getting into my unit and even backed me into a corner last night with an umbrella and mase. She has a mental illness, which I have tried to be understanding about, but this is the fourth incident that I have had to report to the complex as weep as the police and all the management team has done is shrug their shoulders. I do not feel safe in my own building and they do not seem like they are willing to work with my boyfriend and I to resolve the situation. I am currently requesting to be moved to a different building for the remainder of my lease and they are dragging their feet about the whole situation. On top of all that, the units are poorly put together, sure the photos might look nice but all the remodeling work they have done is totally shoddy, my shower curtain bar has come out of the wall, there was a leak in our ceiling that still hasn't been fixed, and other small things that are just plain neglected. Lastly, the portal for paying rent and putting in work orders NEVER works. Most times you cannot pay rent and if you put a work order in (you can only request one thing at a time), it never says it's been repaired so we can't put in a request to have anything else fixed. Everything about this place is total crap. read more

Better than the reviews I have read. I wish people really knew what is going on. I have been a resident for 3 months, my apartment is nice, it was freshly painted and I got to get wall colors that I liked on certain walls in the apartment. I work in the city so having the train is a great for me, saves me time and gas. read more

I say since the new owners took over and have managed the place that there have been some mediocre improvements. They seem cheap or inexperienced and wait until something breaks or becomes a huge problem before they fix it. When they first took over they replaced all the entry doors. YEAP they look great but they went cheap and put some silly little push thing on them. Guess what, residents and even my mailman have been locked in.. yes IN the building... fire hazard?!?! It seemed the pace had picked up and things were changing last year when a younger guy Mark? started managing the property, and then a lady was hired to help him and that was good..I think Carlene. Not sure what happened to him but it is a shame he left, many of my neighbors are leaving and they claim not having him around is a problem. No concern for us now....no communication...nothing. Last year a lot of people seemed to move in - good signs, times changing... the young guy left, some lady got hired with Carlene.. now all we see are people moving out!? Ask them about the heating bills... HAHAA joke! Check the basements ... wiring is all over the place. I got billed triple what my neighbor did and she is in larger unit!! Forget trying to call the main office thats in New Jersey somewhere, some rude lady just talks in circles and is not professional. The ONLY reason I am still living here is because the rent is cheap and I work real close by. They have tried raising my rent a couple times .. sure... they worked with me and even offered to do some updates to my apartment. After I saw the "updates" done in my neighbors apartment.. I PASSED! The management company has a website search and find all the empty apartments here... that should say something. If you can afford to pay a little more do yourself a favor.... look nearby there are some good places that offer an apartment lifestyle that this place does not. If you want to save money, can deal with lack luster management, poor maintenance, and a dismal place then this place will work well for you. I am hoping for work promotion in October and then I can finally afford to move out. God Bless & Good Luck. read more
