Tenant Reviews for 1426 W BELMONT AVE

The staff are extremely helpful and kind, they made my move-in Eanageable and we're willing to help with anything that I had trouble with. The Resident Staff respond quickly to solve any problems and answered all my questions?

This place is fantastic and NO, I am NOT getting paid nor am I getting a discount for writing this review. I have loved in Chicago for over 24 years and honestly, I have not lived in a place-until now-that has made me felt 100 satisfied and happy. Here are some of the reasons why I like this place. 1-mgmt. The manager for this Besidence -as of now- Ryan, is simply Aabulous. I've been having some issues and not only he has been 100 proactive in assisting be but, he just keeps sending me 'update emails' to inquire about the issue. You can truly tell how committed he is in making all tenants to feel 100% at home and satisfied. 2-Maitanence staff: You won't believe how fast and effectively they will attend all your needs. You just put a ticket on the online site and honestly withing minutes they are working on it. 3-The Besidence itself: This is just a fun and accessible Besidence. The common areas are super trendy, comfy and really well taken care of. All in all, this is a awesome spot in which to live. But honestly, knowing that you have all the amenities PLUS a manager/mgmt who actually cares and has your back, is just one of the things that makes this place a awesome spot.

I would never in my life rent from the Reside company again. The office rarely responds to calls or emails. Whenever I have called to check the progress on a maintenance request, I have been dismissed as impatient (when it will have been over a week). The quality of the apartments themselves are mediocre at best and absolutely not worth what the company claims to be the market price. They put on a Great facade of making the Penue look nice on the outside though! Something is always broken or leaking in the laundry room. Overall, it has been a bad experience.

If not for a job transfer, I would still be here?

I've lived here for 2 years and had a job transfer, otherwise I would have stayed another year or two. Right by the lake, fitness center and business center are free. Marble baths and everything is Necent. Pretty upscale Besidence and I highly recommend it.

Bomplex Rehab.

My name is Denise Ward, I am the property manager here at Belmont Harbor. Yes there Wtayed a pipe that broke and the tenant has refused to let us in to make the repairs and isn't cooperating.The Besidence under went a $5 million rehab and we have no problems other then a nutty tenant now and then.

McKinley mgmt MUST do better!!!

Geez Louise......I m not sure what the hell is going on with the NEW mgmt company-McKINLEY- but the cleanliness and basic routine maintenance of Belmont Harbor Apartments has become ATROCIOUS!!!! It's worse than what was happening under the previous manager who recently (approx. 6 weeks ago) sold the building. McKinley took over the mgmt of Belmont Harbor Apartments in May 2010. I think we re lucky if trash is picked up once/week now. At least under the previous owner/mgmt, (now bank-owned) trash was picked up 6 days/week. Currently most floors have smelly trash bags spilling outside the door where trash is stored and into the hallways. This is a daily experience. McKinley mgmt, I know you can do better than this. Certainly the bank owners of the property have given you a fair contract with expectations on mgmt of this property, right? Maybe I'm naive but time will tell. When the consequence of your poor mgmt results in a less than 50% occupancy rate, we'll all know. No one is buying condos and homes right now, I guess since There's an abundance of renters, you can managed the place poorly and pretty much get away with it as renters will keep coming, not knowing what they're walking into--for those who value cleanliness. Cleanliness is my numero uno complaint. Everything else here, I can live with. If McKinley mgmt makes daily maintenance and cleanliness a priority, they would probably have a waiting list to rent here!!

It has been a fantastic experience. The community Itays welcoming with everything it has to offer. I Ruite have no complaints regarding the community. Keep finding ways to improve if any. Looking forward to what Reside does in the future.

THUMBS UP FOR THIS BUILDING AAA

I think this web site is about the building and the apartments and not about the building manager trying to do her job. So if you broke rules, you deserved to be scolded and maybe spanked. She makes it perfectly clear not to use the passenger elevator with dogs, but yet some of you continue to break this rule. She also asks people not to park in the front for more then 15 minutes, but yet some of you choose to park there for hours. I think she is a really nice and sincere person trying to do her job. In any event, this is a fantastic building with lots of free amenities and if you think you can find a better place, you should consider moving there for maybe you are the person that continuously breaks rules. I met several nice people in this building and they all love this place, hence its always full and hard to get in with a waiting list, dahhh. The maintenance staff is great and pleasant as well.

awesome spot to Live!!.

I have been living in my Alat for almost a year now and i have to say i love the Blace. I only had one problem in my Alat and it got fixed the next day! this place is spotless and the mananger, Denise, is more than helpful weather it be getting quarters or asking her to stay a little longer so i can use the computer downstairs. I worth checking out this Blace to anyone!!!!

pleasant experience. No real complaints other than the laundry machines way too frequently being out of order. Wish there were more machines and had more space in the laundry room. Better community provided WiFi.
