| I don't really know how to rate Brandychase.Would I recommend it to a guy just out of college? Yes.Would I let my sister live there?No way. Some of the buldings are nice and relatively new.Mine on the other hand is a little more like a 30 year old trailer in the backwoods of appalachia.For instance, you can't really see any of the vinyl siding because it's caked in mold and mildew.Make sure you look at the exact unit you are buying. It's also really really noisy.Apparently I got stuck with some sex addicts directly above me so I get to listen to squeaky floorboards three times daily.We can even hear it in our familyroom on the other side of the apartment. Safety is very little concern to management.The parking lots and sidewalks are very poorly maintained.It takes the snow crews a week to show up and they remove about a tenth of the snow.We had a pretty heavy storn and the front steps were NEVER cleared.At least not until the snow melted two weeks later. The property manager is pretty nice.There are a lot of units so you can't expect very personal service.If a fitness center is important, please look elsewhere.All of the equipment is circa 1982.The pools are really nice (lots of poorly behaved rugrats though) Despite all of the bad aspects, I didn't dislike Brandychase.You get what you pay for I guess.Rent was around $620 for a 2 bedroom.If I were paying more, I'd be really pissed.I have to admit though, it was nice having some trees around. |
