If I could leave 0 stars, I WOULD
This was by far the worst living experience of my life. Blair Mill Village East Apartment Homes should honestly be condemned.
These were NOT unit-specific issues.. they were clearly property-wide and ongoing. We experienced a severe mice infestation for the entire time we lived there. Maintenance told us there was nothing they could do because the mice were “field mice.” Over 15 months, we personally killed around seven mice in our apartment.
We also had wasps coming out of the air vents daily... , which is terrifying and unacceptable. Maintenance confirmed there were multiple wasp nests located in the balcony closet where the air duct is, yet nothing meaningful was done. A so-called “wasp expert” came out, listened to the vents, and said, “I don’t hear any buzzing right now, so there’s nothing we can do,” despite us visibly watching wasps fly out of the vents every day.
I am allergic to bees/wasps, making this situation dangerous and negligent. That was the final straw.
While we were on vacation for a week, the property’s “contractors” entered our apartment (which happened frequently and often on their own terms). When we returned, we discovered the lights left on and the balcony door wide open! It had rained while we were gone! We came home to multiple pests inside the unit, including a giant bumblebee. This raised serious safety and sanitation concerns, yet management simply shifted the blame onto the contractors instead of taking responsibility.
The leasing office is unhelpful, maintenance is lazy and ineffective, and basic utilities were unreliable. Hot water was constantly shut off, often with little or no notice, and electricity outages were frequent. These conditions affected the overall community, not just one apartment.
What makes this worse is that we had recently renewed our lease, yet we were forced to pay a crazy early termination fee to get away from unsafe living conditions. On top of that, they still raised the rent at renewal, which is unbelievable given the state of this property.
