I have rented a condo on Williamsburg Ct in Middleburg Hts OH for a year and a half. The…read moreassociation who manages it is Congress Square I Condominiums. You will find their mailing address if you visit their web address listed above. It has been a horribly uncomfortable experience. Within three weeks of living here and just moving in we received a letter that are pickup truck being parked in the overflow parking was a problem for "some" of our neighbors. We were copied on the "rules" of usage however, we were limited as to where the truck could be parked. Dennis the alleged mgr suggested we park it across the street in another overflow. I found this to be laughable. Our landlord said this was never an issue when she lived here. This issue seemed to settle down but then we got another letter now saying there was to much noise coming from our condo at all hours. Which reiterated all the rules again and where and how to place our tv, speakers, and settings. It went on and on add nausium. When we moved in we elected to get Dish Network. Since it was a dish I called and personally spoke with Dennis to make sure we were following the rules. Two months later we get another letter.It states that we are not allowed to have two points of entry into the outside of the dwelling. Of course he never mentioned this fact when I spoke to him in the first place. I didn't even know what that meant. He refused to take any responsibility and we had to have Dish come back out, at our expense, to rework the wireing. Luckily Dish was willing to correct it even though it was two months into our contract. The letter also gave us a deadline for the repairs to be completed. About two weeks ago I was alerted by an emergency vehicle beep and lights and I saw a police officer walking by our condo. He was called out for loud music and literally walked right by our place. Obviously, nothing was going on here. That following Sat we received a letter for loud music. Enough Already!! We obviously have a pscho neighbor who has nothing better to do than to write letters about us and complain. The crappy part is Dennis does nothing to mediate the issue so she continues to harrass us. The letters state that the neighbor neefs to waer ear plugs, has t go outside to talk on her phone and has disruppted peace. Paaleeze! Other neighbors here say she is notorious for this! Her accusations are a gross exaggeraton and she is enabled! Our other neighbor is a gem. She says were the quietest people who ever lived here and has to look to see if were even home at times. Were packing up and moving very soon. I cannot wait to get out of here. I never had one issue at the condo I was living in before this place! You would think an association who has empty condos, forclosures, and a horrible market these days would appreciate people who pay the rent and take care of the property, but the dont. The owners here have complained about sidewalk flooding and icing over for years. There is now a hole outside in the lawn that was suposed to correct this. I have walked out of my condo to find roofers or gutter cleaners hanging off the roof with no notification that workers would be present. It doesn't appear they care for renters here, and im not so sure about the owners either. Thank God i didnt buy here! I would highly suggest you look elsewhere to live. This was absolutely ridiculous, we never felt like we could turn on a radio here, have guests over, and just normal day to day living was great if you enjoy walking on eggshells! Im Beyond disappointed with my experience on Williamsburg Ct.

Crestview Apartments: Pros:…read more- staff are highly responsive by phone or email, friendly. Maintenance staff, Delroy and Tim, also very helpful. - I'd like to emphasize this: you call or email Montlack and they reply with an answer or solution very quickly- anything from when I broke my garage opener to when I found one of the clothes dryer machines to be broken. There is no concern about being left with any serious issues here and to be able to trust a landlord is a huge huge plus! - $50/mo gets you a spot in the top or bottom floor of a garage which is secure with a quickly moving door - window a/c units can be rented for $10 each per month - well-maintained lawn and front landscaping areas make the buildings not unsightly - walking distance to Little Italy, less than 1 mile to UH medical buildings, a grocery store or two just a few miles away - water and heat are paid for - bike room available in basement of each building - all windows easily open/close and have screens, back door has a locking screen door as well - secure entryway with locked doors to get in through front or side of the building and then your locked front and side doors - huge amount of space for my 1-bedroom (over 900 sq ft for $960/mo) and no carpet - two ceiling fans w/lights in your main rooms. - each floor has its own front balcony area or your unit will have its on personal balcony - all of my neighbors seem to be really upstanding individuals who are not messy or obnoxious party animals but instead seem to be PhD and health professions students, professionals, and even some with children - cats allowed without extra rent Cons: - maximum of 2 outlets per room, and ~50% are ungrounded meaning they pose electrical fire hazards (no longer legal to install in new buildings) AND they only have two prongs. This means you are really limited as to where you plug in many modern devices which have 3-pronged cords e.g. Macbook chargers. Bring powerstrips. - built in 1920 so the wood floors are creaky. Then again you'll never have an unknown guest, right? Might be a plus. - front and back doors are convenient however the stairs are many to the 3rd and 4th floors. The marble floors are slippery from the front entrance and the back entrance/the entrance leading to the driveway are metal with gaps in between them- statistically it is only a matter of time and/or weather until I fall and injure myself. - if you have anything other than a compact car, each trip to your parking space in the garage requires a trip down a narrow driveway. You will likely scratch up your car doing this- it is only a matter of time and trips! The entrance to the upper garage driveway is flanked by two boulders which are also rough to hit (you just gotta see this to get an idea of how uniquely narrow it is to navigate) and no lighting of any sort, so it is difficult to get oriented to the driveway in the dark - no microwave provided - no air conditioning provided. You can rent a/c window units for $10/ea/mo. - no laundry in-unit; each washer/dryer load is $1.25 and requires quarters - no package room. Amazon delivers to outside the building which can be risky if you receive expensive items. - radiators in every room for heat; will be turned on my office and temp managed by them once temp drops to below 60 degrees for 3 days in a row - must contact the city to park overnight on the street (guests) - no outgoing mailbox on site

Both managers I have…read moredealt with, mostly Mike, I'm assuming, i never know who i'm talking with has been rude, uncooperative, to the point of condescending, talking over me on calls, and refusing to address issues. There was one time, my mother repeatedly made complaints about rickety fences years ago, and was blatantly ignored. One time, there was a particularly bad storm, and the fence blew down, and fell on my brother's car and did damages to it, and she called and complained, since they let the fence get to such a state it caused damages to my brother's car. their response? "there was nothing that could have been done, it was an act of god." Another situation, involved one of my neighbors on two different occasions. one involved her having to repeatedly call and complain about the fact she had waterfalls on the front of her house, because the gutters weren't hung right. The manager she'd spoken to, would tell her REPEATEDLY, she just didn't understand how gutters worked, and that when the rain was too heavy, they'd fill up with water and overflow. she had to call and complain MULITPLE TIMES, and was constantly ignored. it wasn't until the condo manamagement company sent someone to look at the gutters on the GARAGES, and my neighbor asked THEM to look at her gutters, that it was affirmed they were NOT hung properly, as she had said, and they scheduled her for a work order to hang the gutters properly. The other instance, was when my neighbor had to fight with the condo management company for NINE YEARS for problems with the roof, that were tired to the fact her condo didn't have a fascia board in place, which was causing damage to the inside of the condo. As far as interactions i've had, i have dealt with trying to call and file complaints with them for over 10 years now, getting harassed by them, blatantly ignored when calling to report issues, for but not limited to, issues of neighbors possessing tiki torches in their patios, rotating cars in guest spots, double parking in front of their garages and alongside garages and in firelanes, allowing children to play in the parking lots/streets, and even mounting of security cameras in their back patios, and fans above the fence line. to my understanding, we are prohibited from having tiki torches, fire pits, or open grills, because of issues fences or fires having been a problem before. ( i was RUDELY told by one of the managers, i was wrong, and that he would not speak to me any further on the issue, despite me sending emails as requested, WITH photographic evidence of them having the torches lit, near fences, and trees in their patio). we are prohibited from double parking, or parking in fire lanes, for obvious reasons of limited space, and accident hazards. I personally had my mother doubleparked a while ago for an hour so she could have lunch, and there would be a letter in the mailbox for us the next day, yet my neighbors continue to do so. children are prohibited from playing in the streets or parking lots, for obvious reasons of child safety and the dangers of playing in traffic, and the fact of the chances of children damaging cars, which mine WAS scratched, but i have no proof. i remember a few years ago when we'd had issues with people breaking into cars and attempting to break into condos, and a neighbor tried to put a security camera up, and was told to take it down. i know we were told we were NOT allowed to have anything mounted to the building, in plain sight above the fencing which we were made to take satellite dishes off buildings, yet my neighbors have a security cam and a fan in their condo patio, above the fence line. If you can help it, do NOT get a property with these people.

(650 not including utilities) Pros: - Excellent location to Case Campus and uptown. - Quiet area. - Adequate heating via steam radiator throughout winter. Good water heat/pressure. - Relatively safer part of university circle area, though I would still exercise caution late at night. - Water and heat included. Responsive management to simple maintenance requests - No fuss with moving out and getting deposit back Cons: - When I moved in, my unit was infested with roaches which took about 6 months to resolve. They just kept sending the same guy to spray more and more pesticides to the point where I started feeling sick and developing a cough. They finally sealed off some holes in the walls after I hounded management, and I never saw a roach again after that. - My bathroom ceiling fell in because of an upstairs leak - Street parking is available but difficult to grab a spot - Old school lock and key security - Mail just gets dropped communally on the front steps and I've had a package stolen once out of ~20 deliveries - Window was very poorly sealed so people smoking or talking on the street made it seem like they were basically inside your apartment - The flooring was ancient hardwood which gave me splinters sometimes. It was bowing so badly that my desk chair kept rolling away and I had to put 5inches of hardwood beneath the legs on one side of my bed otherwise it felt like I was sleeping on the side of a hill.
