I am recommending from the vantage point of an apartment seeker and someone who constantly goes to the Newport area to visit a friend and worked with Jeremiah (Jem) as my 5 star agent who has been very patient and hard-working. (Newport - please give her a raise, she is working long hours and answer my texts at late hours and on weekends) 1. This is my 3rd time looking for an apartment here. Maybe in the future. Why do I come here? 1. Location; 2. Safety; 3. No-fee; 4. Prices Recommendations: 1. If you see a low price, take it NOW. Don't wait. I did and my dream apartment increased by $500 in one week or so since there were daily increases. 2. Have all your papers ready beforehand. read more

Be careful if you want to stay here more than one year The lease extension process for next year is completely unpredictable and unprofessional. It isn't even profitable for the Newport rental company, and here is why: ​We originally moved into a studio apartment for $2,600/month. The following year, the price increased to $2,740, and the year after that to $2,960. We decided to move to another community nearby because $2,960 is too much for a studio with no amenities. ​Ironically, we found that they are now offering our exact apartment for $2,600 again. It's funny--why is Newport willing to lose money on a month of vacancy and a lower market price instead of just keeping an existing renter at the same rate? Nobody even asked us to stay; we would have stayed if they hadn't raised the rent. read more

There are rats and roaches in the building. When I complained about rat in unit they pretty much told me that they will see when the exterminator comes in once a week. They did the same thing with roaches. Horrible place infested and bad attitude of management read more

They don't let you do the inspection prior to move-in and on the move-in day expect you to clean the apartment. The floor is chipped all over and they don't care if it ends up getting stuck in your foot and you get a septic infection. Had to write them 70 emails to get repairs done post-move-in inspection. When you sign a lease with them you are essentially signing off your life, mental health, money, and all legal rights. The management is worse than bullies. So RUN, as far away as possible and as fast as possible from Newport apartments. read more

Update on review, I moved out 4.5 months ago. On our lease, it clearly states that we will be given an interest for our security deposit, which we were never given. We did the calculations and it wasn't much, so we aren't going to put much effort into getting it back, but the fact that it is stated in the lease and one of my roommates had to email them, yet we still never got it upsets me. read more

What? No. Nothing about the office hour and everything as I paid via credit card. Lydiana lies constantly to me and the management office workers standing next to me. She just tried to blame everything on me. For example, she said she couldn't let me move in because I haven't given her my credit card authorization. It's funny how she said this AFTER charging me. I have no comments. Lemme just upload some screenshots. From the screenshot it's also easy to see she blocked me for a couple of days - I have no comments. Not worth the stress and frustration. Just move to VYV for the same price now. Also they haven't given me my security deposit notice as required by law. So now the NJ law has given me the right to use my security deposit +7% interest to pay off my last 1.07 months of rent. I know my rights, sir, and I have a lawyer. read more

Newport was responsible for flooding our apartment multiple times. The final time they flooded my apartment and 20 floors below it when the water tank on the roof burst. They didn't even tell me, I just came home to find people in my apartment mopping. The next few days they walked in whenever they wanted without tell us someone was coming in to do construction. Never heard from management about the flood or construction in my apartment. I asked it they did an inspection to see if the place was livable and they didn't provide anything. I moved out and they have had a debt collector chasing me ever since! read more

Ww have always had bad experiences with the Newport Management Office becauseof their lack of caring and rude behavior. The worst one was quite recent, on 6/14/2020, all 4 of our gas stoves started sparking automatically despite of them being switched off. There was no one in the kitchen when this happened and we were alerted about this when we heard the continuous clicking noise of the 4 spark plugs on the gas stoves while we were watching TV in the living room. We immediately called the front desk and alerted them because we were scared that the gas might be leaking. They sent up the handyman who came up and unplugged the whole gas unit to stop the sparking. He then proceeded to tell us that it was our fault that the cooking stove was damaged because of the grease around one of the 4 burners.  We have been regularly cleaning our gas and it's a given to have some grease on the surface while you cook. It wasn't thick enough to penetrate inside the unit to cause such damage. That's an absurd accusation by the maintenance. The manager Melissa refused to take our calls and when she finally did,, she threatened to take us to court fair if we refused to okay the $450 penalty fee for replacing the stove. It was us who responsibly reported the incident immediately without worrying about cleaning the surface and it's consequences. Our priority was to avoid any incident that could be caused due the uncontrollable sparking of the ignition of all the 4 burners. The unit could have faulted for any good reason since it had been giving us trouble for a while. This should not be blamed on us without understanding the context. This incident was life threatening to all the residents in the apartment and Melissa's only concern for only the replacement cost of the gas unit from the residents is disappointing and unjust. read more

Avoid living at Revetment if you can. I cannot wait to move out. Started off with our leasing agent who lied to us about parking prices giving us a lower quote only to be surprised at our first rent bill that parking was actually higher. We also were between two apartments and asked about noise levels on the North side of the building (facing parking lot) vs the other side.. our agent PERSONALLY suggested the North facing side of the building that it was quieter but decided to leave out the fact that garbage pick up comes between 11pm-12am twice a week making a ridiculous amount of noise since it's parked in the back for a while crushing garbage. We could have had a different experience with the other apartment but we trusted our leasing person, bad decision. I've asked residents on other side and they don't hear the truck. I hate that our agent didn't share this information as I would've picked the other unit and wouldn't be this miserable. I sit here writing this review after the truck has woken me up again. When it comes to maintenance, they respond fast but it takes 3, 4, 5 visits to actually fix things. I gave up with them fixing our water pressure and just deal with it. They kept telling me oh I'm showering during peak hours so pressure is naturally going to be low. Lies. I documented videos of low or inconsistent water pressure at all hours of the day. Works fine now after I took care of it. The AC unit in our bedroom kept making a rattling noise and took at least 3 or 4 different reports and visits by them to actually "fix it". And by fix I mean they took an AC unit from an empty apartment and hoped for the best. Apartment quality is the typical you get what you pay for. Insulation is horrendous so prepare to install your own window and door insulation tape. Other wise you're going to run your AC for eternity since the cold air leaks out and hot air comes in. If you live here and you don't believe me just close your bedroom door and hold your hand to the bottom, it's ridiculous. You'll also need this to help reduce some noise. You may also need sealant to apply yourself since the windows are not properly sealed and plenty of visible cracks let in outside air. Now I know why it's priced the way it is. The only positive I can share is the building staff cleaning the building and the doormen. They're wonderful people and I hope they get raises. Especially during the pandemic they've been rockstars. read more

Newport Rentals - Extremely loud garbage truck that comes twice a week at midnight that leasing lied to us about - Apartments Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Move-in was easy and organized. Apartment was clean and painted new. But all the water faucet had issue with filters and pressure. Also have to run kitchen tap long time to get cold water which super irritating every time. Maintenance responds but takes their sweet time and always in a hurry. Still my hot water issue not fixed. Another issue is Noise problem from garbage trucks in the morning early hrs and frequent landscape motor sound. Just have to ignore and live through 1yr lease. Endless apt hunting might continue I guess. read more

Everyone here is so nice. And the staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. After reading some of the reviews online I came here expecting your typical greedy, back handed, sneaky, big corporate landlord and while I have no doubt they are only out to maximize their profit I'm glad to see they see the value in hiring good staff and generally spending money to treat their residents well. We moved here from NYC and it was a great move both for the building and the neighborhood. A lot more green and open space (I'm not sure I'd feel the same way if I didn't have an apartment facing the city though). It's even allowed us to spend more time in NYC and enjoy it more too. There's only one negative thing I will say - some of the residents are truly entitled brats! I can't believe how some of them treat the staff and the staff are saints for dealing with them because i'd probably have murdered them! (I do get the sense things vary greatly across their buildings. We're in Aquablu) read more

Tldr; We had a really unpleasant experience with Southampton Management where they called the police on us, accusing us (incorrectly) of theft. It was a situation that was mishandled by Management, and made us feel extremely uncomfortable and disrespected. Context: When we moved in, there was an unlocked storage room on our floor with a sofa. We assumed it was discarded by a previous resident. We even confirmed with a Newport building employee that the room should have been empty. 4 months later, the Superintendent informed us that the sofa was his. He had sold it and needed the sofa back. We agreed, volunteering to return it. However, we asked for some time as it was a sudden surprise. We were also sick with COVID at the time and were not in good health to move furniture around. We ultimately offered to return the sofa after 2 days. I thought this was reasonable given the circumstances. But immediately, Management accused us of theft. The very next day, we heard banging on our door. There were 6 people confronting us, including the police. The officer was extremely hostile: "I could have you arrested on the spot!" The officer kept interrupting my girlfriend, not letting her speak. Management was also in attendance. I saw them all listen in silence as the officer harassed and threatened us. This yelling was during the middle of a presentation I was delivering (I am WFH). I was in so much shock that I could only ask for them to return later in the day. They replied "You're being selfish! We all have things to do!" In the end, they took the sofa back the same day. I asked why Management could not simply wait 2 days. Why the police were called to harass us so viciously. They responded: "We don't need to adjust our schedule around you! We have things to do!" Part of the issue was: We were not allowed to communicate with the Superintendent directly - We had to communicate via the Property Manager, who I believe inappropriately escalated the situation. I think all of this could have been resolved in a calmer way. I feel extremely disrespected by how we were treated. We are Residents, but we were accused of being criminals. I would strongly discourage others from living at Newport. read more

I live in the Pacific Building in Newport. The management is careless and doesn't take stringent action against violators.Some of the residents in the building even though educated, don't have any community sense. There are cigarette butts and ash in the stairway and the management takes no action to catch these culprits in spite of repeated incidents. My apartment is flooded with cigarette smote and I may end up having health issues. Avoid this place at any cost. This building however has excellent staff - doorman, handyman, and other support staff. The issue that I am reporting has nothing to with the excellent service provided by the staff. read more

The positive stars are for the location and convenience. Quick walk to the PATH station, supermarkets within walking distance and a pharmacy around the corner. Everything within the control of the builder LeFrak provides a negative experience though.. 1. Quality of the apartments is definitely not "luxury". Poor insulation and heating in units. We got an electricity bill over $400 for a 2-bedroom and were still freezing because the antiquated window units don't really work 2. Any interaction with the management or maintenance folks is a sheer nightmare. They need basic training in customer service skills 3. When I moved in, the apartment was not even in broom clean condition and I had to email Fermin Garcia and threaten to sue to get it ready 4. There's DOG POOP lying all around and pets running around uncontrolled, because residents don't pickup and management does nothing to enforce or fine them. After Hurricane Sandy, Le Frak used the insurance money to do some renovations and just made the lobbies look better. read more

"Everything is peachy and rosy until the management is trying kill you and then screws up your credit score" If you are a visiting student here for a year or two - enjoy - knock yourself out - location is great and you will not need to deal with the management ever. But if you are older, or US resident who cares about your credit score and your life - this is not the place for you. Don't just take my word - look at the reviews. People who just arrived gives good reviews. People were were unfortunate enough to talk to the management office is a whole different story. This is my story: I lived in Newport, 2004 to 2006, then left the state for 8 years and when I returned I lived in Newport with my wife again from 2014 until 2020. I therefore have a long term perspective about the place not many people have. When I first moved in Newport was smaller, much smaller - they just finished the new-then "green" building in River Court. The management office was also there. Newport was the *the* place to be. Location was great (still is) the apartment was nice, and the maintenance staff, doormen, and management were friendly. I stayed at East Hampton for two years and was very happy with the place. I came back eight years later, to East Hampton again with my wife this time. Newport became much larger. The maintenance staff and doormen were still great. But the management has change dramatically to worse. Clearly the place became too big for them to handle. There were many small issues but what really took the cake here was the management behavior during the Covid Pandemic, that has TRUMP written all over it and we all know how great that went. Specifically, when it was already clear the the pandemic hits NYC area including the Hudson county very bad, and as we are in COVID risk group, I contacted Newport Management and asked them about the steps Newport takes to protects its residents and staff - I especially addressed steps that were recommended by the CDC for shared housing. For example: (1) Encourage staff and residents to wear masks in public spaces - this include elevators, stairwells, lobby and and laundry room (a single small room shared by all resident of a 22 story tower - hundreds of people). (2) Improve ventilation is stairwells (fire fans exist). (3) Make arrangement for risk group - e.g. set safe time for them to pick up packages early morning (if you live in a tower you know how crowded it can get) Newport management flatly refused to do anything whatsoever! People were taking the elevators and staying in the laundry room without masks. Stuff were without masks as well. Newport even refused to place an official sign made by the state of New Jersey that encourage mask wearing! The point is that Newport management could actually demand that people wear masks (like the management of the place we live in now) because the lease agreement preventing residents from behaving in a way that is hazardous to other residents - not wearing a mask in a laundry rooms during a pandemic that kill one in 287 (!) resident in Hudson county is definitely an hazardous behavior. So we spend the next 3 months taking the stairs and doing laundry by hand at home because Newport management also does not allow the use of portable washing machines at home. We live at the 20th floor and need to get the pets out 2-3 times a day. Long story short, after we were aggressively approached in the stairwell a young resident who refused to wear a mask and complaint about it. Instead of addressing the aggressor Newport offered us to leave without penalty - very "generous" of them. We agreed and we left. But then they asked us to sign a waiver of all claims including future claims and claims that we are not aware of. We refused; we only agree to waive claims that we know what they are. About a year after we left we found a collection of $4K by Newport that trash my credit score from 807 to 641. We have no idea what it is about as they never contacted us. There was never a court ruling, I don't even know how it is legal to place a collection without court ruling. So now, I need to go to court and sue them. getting a mortgage is more difficult because I have a dispute (which doesn't make anysense) It is a huge headache, and legal proceedings are expensive (attorney fee is $300 an hour). The bottom line is: unless you do not care about COVID, your credit score and management that is as helpful and chips with two signs one says "NO", and the other said "I can't do that" Do yourself a BIG favor and stay away from Newport. read more

Pay the extra money and live somewhere else. I have been living here almost a year and my next door neighbors have broken just about every clause in the lease but I am the one being told to leave because I complained. They have damaged the plumbing to the extent a hole had to be cut in my wall for repairs. they have kids they continuously scream from morning to morning to the point my neighbors have moved but I am the only who should move. I was told that they were going to be evicted but that was a lie. Now, I have bugs from their apartment coming into mine. Any other property they would have been evicted but yet because I look differently I am being asked to leave. BEWARE. read more

The worst experience you can have in the surrounding area. Frequently water shutd own. Unnoticed " inspecting" (people just walk into your room with master key without notice nor knock). Safety issue. My bike got STOLEN! TWICE! No video record (camera facing the garage gate way) were provided to me nor the police when requested by police. They even lock the office door at 4:20pm when it says open until 5. The management company didn't do any.thing. They just don't care. (I am not talking about taking care of people who live here, they don't care about people. They don't see residents here as people with feelings nor customers with rights.) I will strongly suggest people who are looking at these properties under New Port Management consider other companies' properties. The management here is a chaos and the experience is horrified. If there is an option for negative, I will certainly do that read more

The worst. Some buildings are almost 40 years old. Andook it. Poorly constructed. Many foreign nationals live there

Be careful. You might LOSE YOUR DEPOSIT. I had stayed in two apartments there. Every time I moved out, they charged ~$1,000 from my deposit due to some "damage". My friends who stayed there had similar experiences. I'm a careful resident (at least above average) who avoids damage during the stay. $600 out of the second $1,000 charge I had was from "sand the floor". As far as I know, they don't sand the floor between move-out and move-in. When I appealed this to the management office, the staff are arrogant and contemptuous, showing a picture of a few "scratches" on the floor. Their floor must be expensive, since sanding (which they might not even have done) a few pieces costs $600. read more

There was a period long time ago when this place had some value. Last few years things have gotten extremely bad, expecially during Coronavirus when working from home has been almost impossible due to 24/7 noise from outside and loud neighbors. * Extremely rude, corrupt, inconsiderate superintendent who will pull all tricks to screw you in every possible way. * All day extreme noise pollution - not only from neighboring apartments because the walls are paper thin but helicopters and leaf blowers operating at full throttle from 7 AM to 5PM (one would wonder how many leaves 5 little trees produce everyday). * Roaches and rodents everywhere and super blames tenants instead of closing the massive holes in the walls. Be ready to have roaches in your cabinets which have massive gaps in between them, in your dishwasher when you are done washing your dishes and in the morning on your toothbrush. Get used to living with them or the super won't like it. * Extremely low quality appliances which break all the time and then you have to wait for months to get the replacement. And that too they bring from some other apartment and in extremely disgusting condition. * Leaking laundry machines which you share with the entire world. * Super thin material cabinets with layers of fake super cheap plywood flying in all the directions and then they blame and charge you. * Low ceilings and that too disgusting popcorn ones which always get so dirty. Be ready to clean those ceilings every weekend of yours or you won't pass their stress test. * And to top it off make sure you forget about your security deposit, which you paid with your hard earned money while going through years of torture living there. But don't worry as you may enjoy the views! read more

The apartment itself was nice. However, when we moved out, we were charged an excessive amount from our deposit for no reason. Furthermore, they failed to inform us that our security deposit was switched to another bank and did not pay us any interest on our deposit. According to NJ laws, we are subject to 7% credit when this happens. We wrote to management and never heard back. We will take further action if we don't hear back from management any time soon. 1/15/2020 Just responding and saying that you will review with your team is a useless response. Please provide a contact number. read more

Do not recommend at all. It's good until you have to deal with the management. My quality of life has significantly deteriorated with the new construction that Newport initiated. They never notified the residents of the extent of damage to our daily routine. I was proud to live next to the waterfront and it was the best part of my day to walk my dog. Now it's the worst part of my day as my dog is older and doesn't walk far we are just circling around the construction zone and the entrance. I extended my lease for 4 months only prior I learnt about the construction and I was never notified about the actually construction - and my rent increased by $500(!) - I don't see why I am paying 3300 (+50 for a dog) for such a poor quality of life when I cannot even take my dog for a decent walk. I suggested a rent decrease (since j won't get to enjoy this "wonderful" pool) - of course, this was rejected. I suggested that they reimburse a dog stroller to even be able to walk past the construction to the waterfall - that was rejected as well. So it seems that they can only take money but do nothing at all to accommodate their current residents. Such a sham of a renter friendly residency. And lastly (bit quite important) with construction i noticed movement in the walls - I had 2 paintings fell of the wall. Not sure if it is even safe at this point. Do not recommend Newport - for this price that they charge, you can find a better place elsewhere. read more

Overall I think Newport raises the rents WAY to much to fast. It goes up 13% each year. And they wouldn't negotiate with me. I don't forsee staying here longterm. However the community is very nice that they try to build. I like the ice skating rink. The parking nearby and of course having easy access to the PATH train is nice. Also being so close to the mall is very nice too. But the buildings are outdated and there aren't that many non chain stores around. I give them 2 stars for nice neighborhood and nice maintenance people but my rent is way to high to have out dated fixtures and they won't even buff my floors and barely any amenities beside having a doorman! read more

Getting better! They've renamed some of the buildings and some now have better amenities like kid playrooms, and the appliances have upgraded to stainless steel in many of the newer buildings (though prices do keep going up - a two bedroom is now closer to $3500 in my prior building). Still have the problem with demand - they would only give us an 11 month lease! Feels like they want to raise the rent sooner. But this is also related to being a summer rental. In winter, they are currently offering an extra month free at some apartments. Business, yes, but really not conducive to building a long-term community of residents, just transient and pulling as much as they can from people. Also, they still haven't figured out how to get a better school. They should build it and charge the $30k or so a year for tuition - they'd get a lot of parents locking into the area and cause the rents and apartments here to sell better. read more

Visited this place couple of months back. This is like the urban, chic neighborhood with awesome views of the city's skyline. I visited a friend who lives in one of the high rises.

The leasing experience was great. Our leasing agent Karla Luz Roque was extremely accommodating and fast in her responses both by phone and email.

Unfortunately, for 10 years I lived in this over priced tenement complex in the middle of nowhere in Jersey City. The building staff such as the doormen and porters were generally polite and friendly....However, the employees in the Newport rentals leasing office should take notes from them on proper customer service. Having been a loyal tenant for so long who always paid the rent on time...I expect this management staff would have been more helpful and supportive when I informed them of an apartment issue. Quite the contrary, the staff was dismissive of my issue, rude, & unprofessional. Horrible experience living here. read more

Amazing place. 1) It is a 24/7 waterfront in a safe and beautiful are of Jersey City. 2) It has it own unique feel compared to other waterfronts in West New York or Edgewater. 3) There is a small lighthouse which is cute. 4) Next door, there is a NJ Transit station, as well as Hoboken with all its wonderful piers. read more

My wife and I lived here for 4 years, after spending 1 year in Manhattan, 2 years in Brooklyn, and 2 years in Queens. We spent all our time in the Atlantic Building, and this review is based on our experience there. In general, the staff were responsive and friendly, and the common areas were well maintained. The apartments typically have stainless steel appliances, PTAC air conditioning, and parquet wood floors, as well as views of the city and river. The main downside for those used to luxury buildings elsewhere is that, for most units, laundry is located in a common area in the hallway rather than in unit, although the buildings newer than the Atlantic (i.e., Ellipse, Laguna, Aquablu) have laundry in unit. In terms of community, there wasn't much when we got there (2016), but things have been changing. For those who are interested, there is a big ex pat presence here (temp workers and students), but by the time we left we started to see more Manhattan transplants and young professionals. Newport itself also made more of an effort to host events (e.g., wine tastings, chocolate making, painting, etc.) That said, local entertainment options were still very limited, and there are only one or two bars in the immediate area. Which brings me to the main thing about Newport. The PATH is a small subway system servicing Jersey City and Hoboken, and it connects to the MTA through two lines going to the Financial District and Midtown. On the plus side, the PATH is generally much cleaner than a New York subway, and conductors ride in the cars with you (not separated by a conductor's box). The PATH, when it is running and on time, is great. Unfortunately, PATH service on the weekends and late nights is limited to one train every 30-45 minutes, so it takes an inordinate amount of time to get into and out of the city during those times. If you expect to go into and out of the city on a regular basis, and don't want to pay for Ubers, this is a big downside. Also, during rush hour, the PATH gets packed (literally) and unless you are willing to force yourself into a subway car it is often not possible to get on a train at certain times. Anyway, all that said, Newport is a safe, clean, well-maintained community with affordable rents (compared to Manhattan) with easy access to transportation (when it's working and available) and grocery stores, a Target, a movie theater and a mall within a 5 minute walk. Overall, we really enjoyed our time there and have many fond memories. We recommend you give this area a shot, especially if you work in Midtown or FiDi. read more

Just moved in a few days ago and never had any process go so smoothly from beginning to end. I had the chance to work with Karla R. who quickly was able to get the entire process going and gave me tours of the available apartments. She answered every question/doubt that I could have had before and even after move-in. I was able to see the facilities available, meet the doormen and it was all comforting since I'd be moving from a different area. Karla made an experience I thought would be stressful very simple, straight forward and a great experience overall. Also, was helped by Laura S. who was very prompt as well with her responses and assisted with the application and lease process. Highly recommend! Thank you ladies! read more
