Hey, potential renters who checked out apartments on rentalsinphilly.com! Be warned! I rented from…read moreKeller Williams Rentals for over a year, and during that time, I dealt with broken appliances, blocked drains, and a disgusting mouse infestation. The apartment I rented looked fine and updated on the surface, but it ended up having tons of problems. And after dealing with endless headaches renting from them, they also had the nerve to take out inflated cleaning and hole spackling fees from my deposit after I moved out. When I asked for a breakdown of the charges, they were unable to provide. I am currently still waiting on an additional $50 they agreed to reimburse me after extensive complaining. (It's been almost 6 months since I moved out, and still no additional $50!) If you want to be able to have direct contact with your landlord, do not rent from them. They are the middle men between you and your landlord, and you will not be able to speak to your landlord directly. Ever. I overpaid for a lackluster, problematic apartment in a crappy neighborhood. I highly suggest renting elsewhere.

Said I was responsible for finding someone to fill my lease even though there is a duty to mitigate…read moredamages, so they essentially went against the law without my knowing. Ceiling collapsed in my bedroom and they took 7 days just to get in the apartment. Took a month to repair and left me in uninhabitable living conditions, asking me to flip my bed on its side each day so people could work on the ceiling. Could have moved out given it took well over 15 days (took the whole month) and didn't even get a 50% reduction in rent even though it was a shithole of a place during that time. Immediately after that, the deck in back collapsed through when I sat in a chair. Avoid Sean Rapp and their listing of 2427 E Allegheny Ave Floor 1. It doesn't stop flooding and now roaches are all over the place, even with traps. Trashy people running a trashy and predatory business.

I cannot in good conscience recommend Solo Realty to anyone.... As someone who has rented…read moreapartments in Philadelphia for the entirety of my adult life, my tenure with Solo Realty stands out as the most challenging and frustrating by far... Communication was consistently lacking, with calls, emails, and voicemails routinely going unanswered or leading to confusion when transferred between confused and unprofessional staff members. One time I had to keep calling to eventually have the phone answered and then hung up on. Throughout our lease, countless issues arose, leading me to consistently question the integrity of this company. For instance, when our water heater broke during the coldest weeks of the year, the response was routinely delayed, and the compensation offered was laughable and inadequate. Additionally, upon moving in, the apartment required significant cleaning efforts on our part, yet a substantial portion (more than half...) of our security deposit was unjustly withheld from us... While the property itself was charming, BEWARE of Solo Realty's trendy and professional facade and their tendency to charge you for anything and everything...

Management is great. They always respond promptly to emails or any question/problem you may have…read more Most importantly, they care about their residents and really try to resolve any issue as soon as possible. Always clean, very quiet building and very nice door-mans. I have never had an issue with noise, water, gas or any insect in the apt. The building also has a maintenance team working during the day which is great. I have really enjoyed living here. Two min away from Rittenhouse park, many restaurants around, a bakery and overall and great neighborhood to live in. 5 minutes away from different bus stops if you're working in Univ city. I always walked back home, which is about a 40m nice walk back. Overall experience a 10/10!

I would strongly advise against anyone considering moving here. I really wanted to love this…read morebuilding, based on its location, the large and bright apartments, and the friendly doormen. However, management has truly shown no regards for or respect for the residents' lives/comfort. Cons of living here: * Elevators (of which there are only two for a 16-floor building) get shut off for months at a time. I can't count how many times I've been late for class or missed an uber due to waiting 15+ minutes for the elevator and ultimately having to walk down 10+ flights of stairs. * There has been constant extremely loud drilling and hammering on the building starting at 7am (see video upload) for months at a time. This has had serious impacts on the sleep schedules and productivity (working/studying at home) of most residents. * Many of the apartments are not renovated, and have loud clanking heaters, which again disrupt sleep and work/studying. * The building has been undergoing construction to its exterior for months -- I am higher than 10 floors up, and am often woken up at 7am to construction workers standing/talking/listening to the radio right outside my window. I have to keep my blinds closed all the time during the week. In addition, since the windows have poor insulation, the dust from the construction ends up in the apartment * Water outages happen very often with very short notice * Electricity outages also happen - In a recent week, we were given 3 days notice for an 8-hour full building power outage (including elevators) during the workweek. Extremely inconvenient, and if you live on the 16th floor, you're walking up/down 16 flights during that time. * Management communicates with residents in a very unfriendly and demanding tone and has never agreed/offered to compensate residents for the inconveniences caused * Lease terms are very resident-unfriendly * Move-in dates and policies are very strict / unflexible I understand that old apartment buildings need to be renovated, but myself and at least 30 other residents I know of (I am on group communications with them) feel that we had no idea of these hassles at the time when we signed our leases and have not been treated with consideration given the situation. The least management could do is provide a rent concession to residents for these past and ongoing unexpected inconveniences. Many of us will be leaving when our leases expire, and management will not let us end the lease before then without paying a one-month extra rental fee + "advertising expenses."
