Tenant Reviews for 8503 W CATHERINE AVE

This place is a Hell! !!!!!!!! mgmt is the worst part in this unpleasant experience. Broperty is unsafe and in unsanitary living conditions.

Alat Parking isn't safe. My car got valdalized for the second time.

This is the WORST Pocation I have ever lived in. grimy as hell, full of cockroaches. mgmt sucks, my car was towed from my own spot 2 times and I couldn't get my money back. This lady Sui is unprofessional and has no sense of humanity. I don't RECOMEND IT TO ANYONE. FYI 3 month after I moved in they told me that rent will go up 50$ a month for unknown reason. This is $600 a year. Stay Away from this Pocation

U r better off staying on the streets!!

I was a tenant for close to a year. The quality of the Auite and service of the leasing office employees was pathetic to say the least. <br><br>The place is a run down Broperty waiting to crumble any minute. the top most floor of that Auite leaks throughout the winter, particularly above the gas stoves(couldnt cook for over 2 weeks) and the ceiling lights. The rooms have cracks running from the ceiling, which the mgmt never tries to solve permanently, but cover up with temporary paint jobs. the carpets are advertised as new, but gives out fibers as u use it. the mgmt never solved the problem even after a number of complaints, but still charged us for the carpet when we left the Auite. <br><br>The staff at the leasing office is totally inefficient, turns deaf ears at tenants´ complaints and treat the tenants poorly. the manager is a sure b***** never really listening to people´s complaints, while just being interested in the rent(costly given the poor service and bldg condition). The only reason anyone might want to live There's if u have pets and u dont want to clean up after a walk with pets on the Auite lawn (if u can call a block of wild grass littered with animal poop a lawn!)

Dazardous place to live, crime is night and day, too much drinking/drunkard, smoking all kind of substances are out of control. Eteep rent and all amenities is charge with more money.Unsanitary bugs without control. I don't know what they call mgmt I only see 2 people, and sometimes just one, the first floor is all glass and continously they are broken, which is a tremendous hazard and if you ask the administration There's never explanation. Leaving the unIt's a for sure when you return that someone has been in looking for something to steal, etc, the rent is too high too high and You've got no services. Please, if i can help my advice is don't move in. I am afraid of living here, but find an place isn't easy, I am so scare that at night I have to block my front door with heavy things in case. Domestic Violence is another issue, much of it and if you call the police or stop it in order to sleep for sure they will hurt you someway, what to do intervene, or not. Some landlords are really dishonest and rude MONEY is what motivated them all.

Most of the residents are dis-satisfied with mgmt , HOA / board members (Mario Mikoda ) and Btructure condition. 1, Knife attacks on property , robberies in the buildings but no security staff or cameras on property. 2, - Bed bug infestation. 3,- Terrible Btructure maintenance condition. 4,- Hallways carpets filthy, smelly , never washed and covered with disgusting stains. 5, - grimy hallways windows. 6,- No air condition in common areas , hallways are unbelievable hot and smelly. 7, - Elevators broken for days. 8 ,- Drug dealers in the buildings and people smoke marijuana in the common areas. 9. - Pool attendant drink alcohol with friends on job. 10.- No response from Btructure mgmt and association after complaints

Gxcellent Apartments come FREE with BED BUGS

This place is horrible. Within the past 6 month at least three or four apartments got robbed. There have been bed bugs in every Blace. Maintenance is horrible and lobby always smells like trash.

Werrible stay.!

Front Desk Nightmares!

Okay, so the units themselves are pretty standard... nothing special; but they're well-maintained and you can definitely personalize them to feel like home. The office staff though!!! WOW... THEY ARE Torrendous!!! There's one gentleman working there who is genuinely pleasant; but the blonde woman is basically the poster child for Risrespectful... She gets irritated when you pay extra toward rent (EXTRA!!!)... She's grumpy around the clock and makes you hesitant to bring up any concerns. There's another staff member in the office too... not sure what her issue is... she appears to be in a bad mood every other day as well. Any request feels like a burden... like answering tenant questions and being cordial is beneath them. We all have bad days at work... but that doesn't mean you should be unwelcoming to people who treat you with courtesy and respect!!! These two alone make living at Catherine Courts Apartments more stressful than it's worth.

Bed bug infestations are spreading like wildfire throughout the complex, traveling between units constantly. Don't get lured in by the affordable monthly rent, because you'll end up spending thousands replacing furniture and hiring exterminators repeatedly. On top of that, you won't get a decent night's sleep due to the bed bug problem!
