All of their buildings smell moldy and their is definitely black mold within the structure as you can smell a strong mold smell. But all of the black mold is not visible and probably covered up.
Most of my neighbors are druggies. My apartment smells like cigarettes mixed with weed mixed with different types of drugs most of the time. Northland Investment Corporation, the company that manages this place, are very friendly and relaxed towards the druggies in their apartment complexes and don’t have a welcoming policy towards non-smokers who don’t do drugs. If you don’t smoke nor do drugs, don’t live here as you will have smoke and various drug odors in your apartment all the time. They have the same problem at Cliffside.
Also at both Cliffside and Boulders, they make you sign a disclosure saying that there might be asbestos in your unit. But there’s holes in the drywall, the popcorn ceiling sometimes falls off a bit, and if you ask if there’s asbestos in the drywall and the popcorn ceiling then they say they can’t tell you for sure if you’ve been exposed to asbestos or not. If you’re concerned for your health then avoid Northland Investment Corporation.
The Regional Manager Peg called me about this review and was extremely rude and it.
I have more pictures and evidence about how horrible this place is. This company deserves to be sued till they are bankrupt.
UPDATE:
All the laundry machines here are either broken for half of the time or all broken. The laundry machines in my quad are all broken and my soggy clothes are just sitting there.
The manager here Mellissa, does not care about the well-being of residents at all. They just try to save money for everything, which brings the residents a lot of inconvenience.
UPDATE:
Despite numerous requests to fix/replace the washers, they remain broken. Also, there is NO HEAT in negative Fahrenheit degrees temperature. Obviously the heat breaks down and residents are left without any heat in the winter, while maintenance is slow to fix it and you’re left in the dead of the night when it’s -6 degrees outside with no heat. DO NOT LIVE HERE IF YOU WANT WORKING HEAT IN THE WINTER.
UPDATE:
The community manager here, Mellissa, routinely ignores maintenance requests and emails that are sent by residents.response / report this review -

Apartment was filthy when I moved in, multiple appliances missing/broken. Staff was disrespectful and would routinely ignore maintenance requests. This place scammed me out of my security deposit when I moved out, I wish I could give negative stars.

I have been living here for approximately one year and really like this place for a number of reasons. First, there are two bus stops that are really close, one is even inside the community. The buses come here every 15 minutes making it the most frequent route in town. It is a nice and quiet neighborhood and atleast in our building the noise isn't much of a problem. Our neighbors upstairs have a dog which runs and causes disturbance at times though. The community also has a nice bbq area which gave us a place to have small gatherings. Above all, the management has been really nice all year long, especially Kelly. The always came on time for all the work orders and I couldn't be happier with them. I would highly recommend this place.

This has easily been the worst place I have ever lived in my entire life. The people who live here are truly horrible. It is either loud horrible college kids or just generally awful people. The building is falling apart as any time our above neighbors move the floor creaks so loud it can be at times deafening. The walls are paper thin so you can hear everything anyone does. There is no quiet in this place. I have talked to the staff numerous times about the problems we are having and they do nothing. Please do not bring an animal here for though it is allowed, our cat is frightened all the time because of the constant yelling from our horrid neighbors across the hall or the relentless stomping and creaking from above. If we could leave right now we would. Never live here, find somewhere else. I have lived in eight different places over the last five years and this is by far the worst.
