This apartment needs to be Renovated or Demolished. This place has poor maintenance, cheap appliances, ant/mouse issues, loud traffic, ridiculous high rent prices and Black mold. And you can see some of the proof below if this review isn't believable enough after reading it. I can't say it's the same for everybody but, the unit that my family and I used to live in was and most likely still is in poor condition. It's in such poor condition that the stair handrails are wobbly that they could break off at any moment, the back screen door easily breaks off, same goes for the closet doors, window blinds and creaky floorboards. This apartment was the only place we could find that'd accept pets. My family and I moved here about 3 years ago, and how I hated living here each year. The very first thing that happened was when I flipped on the light switch in the bathroom, one of the lightbulbs immediately sparked and fell from it's socket on the ceiling and shattered all over the floor, it could've caused a fire. Later on, it was replaced by a ventilation. Then of course, you're surrounded by a bunch of characters, who are your neighbors. You've got your cat/dog people, weed or tobacco smokers, Partygoers, and shady/sketchy people. But, you also got at least some decent people. Each new neighbor that moves in next to us, I swear we could smell weed coming from next door through the bathroom ventilation, and we unfortunately have to breathe it in or hold our breaths until we're finished. And the walls are so paper thin that you can hear the neighbors arguing, or talking. And when I or the neighbors try to use the showers at the same time, one would get warm while the other gets cold water, it's like our boilers are connected. And if you have a dog and want to walk around the neighborhood or take your dog out, I can guarantee you that you're gonna run into dogs without their leashes on like they're supposed to, because their owners don't care, think they can get away with it or are too lazy to put one on when they take out their dog around the same time as you do. Trust me, my dog and I ran into more than a few dog situations, plus a pit bull, w/o their leashes on. This keeps happening until I don't want to go out for walks anymore or take my dog outside while the neighbor's dogs are out, luckily though, my dog or I weren't hurt during those encounters. I wouldn't recommend leaving your cat outside. We'd have Ant problems each year, we'd have an army of sugar ants in each room, they'll even be in the kitchen and bathroom. When we brought up the situation to the manager's office, they would not send anyone out unless the situation becomes worse (which it has) all they'll give us is these small liquid packets of ant poison that we're not sure if they actually work or not. We did not experience any mouse problems but I heard that the 1 bedroom apt. have mouse and ant problems. Now, I'm not sure if everybody in the entire area has this problem, I'm sure they do but, in our unit there's black mold in each windows in which I thought was soot or dirt but it was neither. And the maintenance people do a lousy job of cleaning it up, they'd cover up the mold with paint, no bleaching, no gutting or cleaning it, they just paint it over and walk away thinking the problem is solved, but instead they've created more health problems for everybody. The rent prices would go higher each year that you stay, it's ridiculous on how much they charge you per year, it's not even worth staying. Whoever says that this place is worth it, trying to make it sound like it's the holy grail or the sacred promised land, they're either lying through their teeth, they're paid to praise this place, they're bots, or all of the above. I honestly would not recommend this place to anyone, because this place isn't worth a single penny, it isn't worth risking your health and safety, unless this apartment is your only option, then I wish you and your family good luck, you're gonna need it. And don't be shy to report if needed to.

No one above or below doesnt mean youre allowed to put doors and windows on a papier-mch box and imply its a quiet home....

No one above or below doesnt mean youre allowed to put doors and windows on a papier-mch box and imply its a quiet home. Not only did they not put the effort in to at least put the bedroom closets on the shared wall with your neighbor to muffle the sound, even if you put your bed on the opposite side of the room (which is about a 3ft difference) you can still hear your neighbors every breath. Dont get me started on the noise these sorry excuse for closet doors make. The closet doors are hanging loosely with no bottom tracks so if you even look at it wrong let alone slide it open it makes all kinds of racket thatll always definitely wake a sleeping neighbor. Speaking of neighbor courtesy given due to the conditions of the paper thin walls, none of these people living here have any courtesy towards each other when it comes to unnecessary noise. IF YOU WANT TO USE SUBWOOFERS, EARN YOURSELF A HOUSE, UNTIL THEN, YOU DONT GET TO USE SUBWOOFERS! SAME GOES FOR ME, A MUSICIAN! GROW UP! My neighbor and I have patio doors that were clearly not installed properly, youll get a hernia opening and closing it which also means more noise due to having to slam the thing to close it. Milestone Property Management obviously spent the least amount of money therefore resulting in contractors who gave them the effort they paid for. Theres faulty electrical problems throughout half the complex which you can walk through at night and see for yourself. Good luck being able to see and get safely from your car/bus stop to your door. You would think you live in the desert with all the sprinkler systems that come on outside the winter months during hours everyone is awake and trying to run to your door without getting drenched by multiple sprinklers within a few feet of each other leading to your apartment. Is this not Portland? Do we not get perpetual rain!? Also, why are you charging these ungodly prices and paying landscapers to blow mud onto my patio window IN THE WINTER when theres not even leaves on the ground? Seriously, how stupid are you calling us to our face that were not supposed to see thats where our money is going? Not to mention the noise and AIR POLLUTION that these blowers cause while theyre making it look like theyre doing work blowing around all two PRETTY leaves that fell over the winter. If you can take time out to do unnecessary vanity landscaping in the winter, then you can take the time to be environmentally conscious and USE A RAKE! REMEMBER THOSE? You also dont need to make all that noise going through the trouble of rebuilding cabinets and replacing closet doors just to put up another new set of horribly installed closet doors whenever someone new moves in. By law you may have to change a thing or two but nothing this major every single time especially when youre just doing the same piss poor job again. Talk about another blatant waste of your tenants money. Theres loud absent minded disrespectful teens running around bouncing basketballs right next to bedroom windows when some people work second and third shift because this isnt the 1800s where everybody works 9-5 Monday through Friday and shouldnt have to just because you dont know how to teach your litter respect. I ask anyone reading this, which type of person are you? The spineless behind the times fat cat slumlord property owner who thinks their tenants should be grateful to live in such a pathetic minimal attempt at providing housing or the loud selfish absent minded trashy neighbor? Judging by the tenants at Somerset West and the owner(s) of Milestone Property Managements performance thus far, youre definitely one. Dont respond to my review, theres nothing to talk about, fix the issues like decent human beings and Ill take the review (which has been copied) down. I have photos and video too. Thank you.

They have a Huge RAT Problem!!! You'll find RATS and Cats DEAD OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR Early In The Morning by RACCOONS !! DON'T Move In Here! Management changes ALL the time! Owner Doesn't Care! They really have nothing decent to offer!
