Our Review

The property itself can look better than expected, but management remains unresponsive to maintenance requests that drag on for months or longer. Multiple reviewers report city code violations, unpaid water bills resulting in liens, break-ins due to unsecured gates, and substance use visible on the grounds. You will likely need to escalate issues beyond the office to resolve them.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Reiger Park Apartment

Reiger Park Apartment

2.1(10)✓ Google-verified

One recent reviewer praised quick fixes and rent assistance, but seven of ten ratings are one or two stars. The core issues cluster around mold so severe it damaged belongings and caused health problems, utilities left non-functional without communication, and pest infestations. Management disputes appear to centre on whether serious conditions are acknowledged.

The Principal Residences

The Principal Residences

3.6(28)✓ Google-verified

The Principal divides tenants sharply: half praise its historic charm, natural light, and leasing staff warmth; half cite thin walls, creaky floors, and years of unresolved flooding and maintenance delays. Design flaws (inefficient old windows, poor kitchen exhaust, thin walls) stem from its 1903 schoolhouse origins and limit comfort despite the aesthetic appeal.

Lumiere's Place

Lumiere's Place

2.6(12)✓ Google-verified

Lumiere's Place suffers from broken systems and poor upkeep. Security gates fail regularly, letting unauthorized residents in and creating constant noise; cockroach and rodent problems persist. Management responsiveness varies sharply: some tenants report quick fixes from staff like Jess and Rebecca, but many others say calls go unanswered for weeks or months despite repeated attempts.
