Downhill

February 29, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com

The current ownership and management are running this building into the ground. Elevators break down constantly - generally only one of three is in operation at a time - and repairs are slow and shoddy. The gates to the garage are broken, resulting in frequent car theft and trespassing. HVAC works only sporadically, pipes and vents are poorly maintained, leaks are constant, washing machines and dryers are in disrepair, and the office has inexplicably stopped giving tenants (paid) access to the ...

small on-site gym. Reasonable tenant requests are ignored, and while the office staff isn't solely to blame for the building's rapid deterioration, they make matters worse through their rudeness and unprofessionalism. I am counting the days until my lease is up.

Do not be misled

July 25, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com

Elevators frequently break down, there are days, when none of the three elevators are working (Building has 16 floors). If you live here, be prepared to arrange your grocery shopping, laundry, and visitors, around, the hope, at least one elevator will be working, and you, or your guests will not get stuck, in the one working elevator. The idea of 24 hour security and "gated" parking, is also misleading. While the lower level, of the garage, has a working gate, the middle and top levels, have not ...

had a gate in over a year. Those two levels are open to anyone, and there were 2 incidents, on the 2nd level. Tenants' have broken floor tiles, and issues with Heating/AC units. All of these issues are well known to tenants and building management.

Falling Apart

August 25, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com

DO NOT MOVE HERE! The elevators haven't worked in months. The garage door is broken for a year. The new owners do NOT maintain the building at all.

Better management

October 26, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

Slow service with maintenance. Elevators stay out of service. Office staff not experienced

Change management

October 22, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

Unresolved and unanswered complaints. Numerous maintenance issues take awhile to be resolved. Rude and unprofessional staff around the building lately

555 review

October 14, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

Slow maintenance service with current office staff and management. Noise complaints are not always addressed. Could use some management training. Each issue now takes several calls or requests to get something done. Staff not that pleasant anymore

Wish We Had Air Conditioning

September 16, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

I've been at Forest Hill Towers for 8 years. We are currently without A/C and have been for over a week. There has been no communication on what the issue is or when it will work again. This is the first time in my 8 years that something like this has happened. Lately, the care for the property has been awful.

Love this place!

July 20, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com

This place is a gem! I loved living here. The neighbors are friendly and 7 stars to the entire on site building management people. Everyone from my friends at the front desk to the management team to the maintenance people, EVERYONE is hard-working, friendly and do their level-best to ensure this building is in top shape. This is an older building, but it is extremely well maintained, affordable and has amazing Manhattan skyline views. It’s a quarter mile from beautiful Branch Brook Park. I am ...

not naming specific people because I don’t want to forget anyone. But really every single person I regularly encountered during my time here is amazing! Thank you Forest Hill Towers!!

Rats!!!

January 15, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com

Do not rent here trust me !! Nightmare of a place !! Rats all through out the building ! No help provided.

Terrible Management

October 1, 2016 - Review from Apartments.com

The management is so terrible. Save yourself the trouble and live somewhere else. They only think of you as a check and not a person. Management will scam you for every penny they can get.

Management office ineffective and RUDE

September 16, 2016 - Review from Apartments.com

I have lived at this property for about a year and in that time multiple things have fallen apart. I've gone through their work order request system and even the office yet NOTHING hads been fixed. The only time someone came to my apartment was when there was a ridiculous leak from the apartment above me. Even then they didn't fix the things that needed fixing. Speaking to the property management is even worse - these people are dismissive and lack professionalism on all accounts. They're also ...

extremely rude. Oh and that "free" electric they provide? Useless! The heaters provide lukewarm air at best so winters are terrible. Do not rent here - as soon as my lease is up I am leaving.

Fraud

February 18, 2016 - Review from Apartments.com

They will make you do the application, guarantee you approval, pay the application fee and then turn you down. Unethical business
