It has been 3 months now. The apartment community is clean and noise free and well maintained. The…read moremaintenance crew is prompt and tends to concerns right away. The office staff is kind, and good at their work. The apartments are old, but not a lot of wear and tear. The heat vents are not very clean, but doesn't matter as much as they still function well! Apartment amenities include heat, hot-water, water, sewage and car parking. Dumpsters are cleared out regularly. The apartments upstairs can get noisy because the rule to cover the floor with carpet is not enforced strictly enough, but thats not a lot of bother for me. Economical stay!

I complained to the management person but no big change. There is kind of machine running all day long with big grinding noise. Think about that! How can you stand the noise as a mixture of road, heating pipes and some machine noise that I can not even identify. At night, you bedroom is like a factory work line.

Dear Helene L., We…read morewant to apologize for the bad experience that you feel your family member had at Brookshire Senior Apartments. As with any other apartment building, there will be normal wear and tear and sometimes unforeseen occurrences. We always work as quickly as we can to resolve issues. We also always keep all our residents up to date with the process. Unfortunately, due to privacy laws, we are unable to discuss some matters with a person even if it involves their family member who resides in the building. We apologize if that made you feel that we were not here for you. The residents that were involved, felt we did an excellent job keeping them abreast of the situation. Please keep in mind that where this is a home to our residents, this is also an office where we handle many other affairs to keep our community a great place that our residents are happy to call their home.

I had a great experience with Joe and his team. I first worked with Joe when I moved from CT to NJ…read morein 2003 and bought a condo. I'm not exactly what sure happened with the other reviewer but Joe actually helped me out financially because the last minute closing costs were higher than anticipated and he let me pay him back afterwards. He helped to make buying my first home happen beyond what was expected. When I decided to take a job in CA, we put the place back on the market, but unfortunately this was after the shit hit the fan with the housing market so he helped me out again by finding a renter and managed the property for me. There is no fun or glory in managing a property when you are a real estate agent so I totally appreciated his efforts here. Finally!!! We find a buyer for my condo this past October!! Yee haw!! But now, I'm freaking out because it was going to cost me a lot of money out of pocket at closing because I was an idiot and took out a HELOC back when the market was up. Anyway, he virtually held my hand throughout the process. After the closing, I was so over the condo, so happy and relieved that it was now a part of my past, but then the title company told me I owed Joe a legitimate $135 for reimbursement of an inspection fee. He told me to forget about it. He got that I just wanted it all over with and empathized with me that I paid out as much as I did. Joe will get his $135 because, first, it's what is owed and, two, paying what I owe is only right, but I sure appreciated the sentiment. I would recommend Joe to anybody looking to buy a house or condo in Mercer County. I never once felt like a dollar sign to him, more like family, if anything. He is an amazing real estate agent and just a really good guy.

When you call them back and ask, the male manager will literately threaten you! Very bad experience! Parking is very limited. If you come home later than 8pm, there won't be any common parking. The building is old. If you live on the first floor, good luck with all kinds of Cockroaches! The heating was very strong during winter and spring, and it's not adjustable at all.

I lived in this apartment for 6 years and I will miss this place. The super and maintenance guys…read moredoes a great job in maintaining the grass, parking lot, and apartment. If you have problems they come and help as soon as they can. When it snows they clean up the lot and sidewalks pretty good. The landscape is pretty well kept. It feels like you are quite at home with the trees, flowers, and green grass. I got to know my neighbors pretty well. They are nice people - students, singles, families, elders. It is a good mix. Also It was great to have a balcony and the laundry facility is right outside the parking lot. The location is also great for public transportation. It's 8 minutes to catch the Suburban bus by NJ Turnpike on rt18, 7 min drive down to New Brunswick train and about 10 min to Edison train station. Highland Park is a great walking town with lots of culture and diversity. You can walk to post office, grocery store, church, and restaurants. And also there are 2 parks to get some exercise - Donaldson Park at the end of the road and Johnson Park (bigger) 10 min away. The apartment is also within an hr from NY city, the jersey shore, and Philadelphia - plus or minus traffic of course.
