Evolve Apartments

the bars and night clubs around. The worst part is I can also hear the drunk people sing karaoke at 3am, and the homeless people play drums on the street after midnight! 3. Fire alarm drill every month in the middle of the night, like 2-3am, how fun! Management said someone keep pulling the fire alarm in the middle of the night, but can't catch who did it. Well, as a resident here, you got to meet all of your neighbors once a month while the fire alarm goes off in the middle of the night, what a wonderful opportunity to meet your neighbors. 4. Elevator and front door is constantly broken. I mean constantly! 5. Bill cost is high, I was traveling the whole month in July, my apartment was empty the whole time. I still got over $130 water bill. And the water bill is from the management company, they said each unit has it's own meter, so I am wondering where is the $130 come from if no one lives there at all?!

Their method of calculation is not broken down at all and they want to give you a lump sum amount of $1471 for cleaning and painting charges. It's absolutely ludicrous and highway robbery if you ask me. Provide me a receipt of all services performed and a breakdown of what was done and evidence that it was done, and I'd be happy to review and pay a fair and customary amount. $1471 to paint and clean a 550 sq ft apartment is ridiculous. After weeks of trying to get receipts for work completed from the manager, I had to escalate to regional manager. The RM looked at the photos of my apartment and saw that it was in the "filthy" condition that the manager said it was in. The RM, professionally reviewed the move out bill and saw that it was unfairly charged. She said that she will work with the manager and make sure that she is properly trained. I have left several messages to corporate without any response until I got a hold of the RM. The RM and I came to an agreement on the bill and I have paid it to get them to disappear from my life altogether. The RM did remediate the situation without it escalating even further but still a high bill. Since then, I have heard from several other tenants who have moved out or in the process of moving out that is running in to the same issue with the manager grossly overcharging for move out charges. She is still charging for normal wear and tear. She is still not providing itemized receipts for work done. Corporate's procedures have changed since this manager came in to manage the building. She is not honest in our move out assessment. Corporate needs to step in and review the process before someone has had enough and takes them to court. Be careful with the Evolve. It's a poorly run management for a decent building. Good people have left and now it's mismanaged. It's shady and they will squeeze out every dollar out of you. There are much better places for your money on the Hill. It's not worth it to deal with the manager and Suhrco.
