Redside Partners reviews
Owners and property manager really try their best to ensure safety and comfort for tenants. Thank you.
Redside is more concerned with ensuring they receive rent payments than the safety of residents. At 101 Broadway, my concerns were only escalated to a supervisor once I threatened withholding rent. I have had multiple packages stolen and the security footage shared by property management shows the perpetrators attempting (and successfully) entering the elevator to access resident units. Despite being told that security would be improved I have not seen any improvements. Attached is footage of the latest theft shared by property management. I am told this is a tailgater that followed a resident…
I moved out of state to the Hartley in Wallingford without any issues. Alexis and team were extremely helpful during my move. Staff and team responded in a timely matter when I submitted a request or sent a email. Down fall- this building doesn’t have an elevator. You will get your steps in. Street parking was not issue- until the car window break ins kept an occurring. That made me nervous, everyday I would go out hoping my window didn’t get broken into. Other than that great views and location was great!
I moved out of my apartment (Sylvan Court) on May 1, and as of June 22, I still have not received my security deposit refund or a clear response from management. I emailed and called multiple times, but no one has replied or returned my voicemail. I was also charged $200 for cleaning, even though before move-out I was told the cleaning fee for a one-bedroom apartment would be $150. In addition, I patched and painted the walls myself before moving out using the exact paint color information provided by management. Despite that, I was charged for about three hours of patching/paint work, totali…
Building is filthy, call box hasn't worked since I moved in 6 months ago. Have sent multiple maintenance requests to them about fixing it and they just ignore them. Every manager that has been here has left the company. They care nothing about this building or the tenants. This is a disgrace
I never lived somewhere, where you as the tenant cannot get into your unit when you lose a key BY ACCIDENT. Call emergency line for maintenance and this guy was RUDE as hell, immediately after he took my sons information he begin chestizing him about its your responsibility you are locked out its in your lease, we cannot let you in. So my son sad, you telling me i have to sleep outside, yes, you need to contact the office, they know no one never in the office. I will report this to the attorney general office. I will file a complaint, what if it was an elderly man or woman. The way staff talk …
Writing this review on my 3rd day of move-in to Arete Apartments. So far everything has been good. The move in experience was great and Mitsi was super helpful and patiently explained all the process and completed the lease. The fridge was not cooling and they replaced it with a new one on the same day I reported. So far, I didn't notice any unnecessary noise or chaos outside the unit. It's quiet. The location is great with east bus connectivity right outside the apartment and also 3-4 mins walk to Kirkland Transit Center. Super convenient for people who don't drive. I will add updates after o…
Do you like to suffer? Do you want to be reminded that you, the renter, are a miserable little worm with none of the rights afforded to the landed gentry? Redside Partners may be the property management company for you. I had the misfortune of living at Alderview, a building managed by Redside Partners. I was allowed to break my lease there following an inspector for the city of Seattle finding my apt (504) in violation of WA state habitability laws due to a large ceiling leak, which mgmt seemingly had no interest in remediating. To summarize: 1. I noticed that my bedroom ceiling leaked every…
I’m currently staying at one of the properties with Redside partners and I’ll tell you it’s the worst management I’ve ever had. They don’t care at all and are non responsive. The property manager Angie and her manager Matt do not reply to any of your questions and concerns and when they do they take like weeks to a month. Upon my move in my shower didn’t work for 3 weeks they had no sense of urgency to fix it and did nothing to comp me. Very weird people.
Poorly ran building (Sylvan Court), random charges after rent was due and paid. Fraudulent could describe their business acumen. Their staff are nice but the owner/upper management should be ashamed of the practices. No word on a security deposit either since move out.
horrible experience. rudest residents ive ever lived with in Seattle or any city, and nobody follows quiet hours so expect to get no sleep or work done during the day.
Do not rent from Redside Partners. I’m a current tenant. I have not had hot water since arriving in September. The building has roaches, the gas stoves do not have ventilation. My windows are so unsealed I can see clear outside through the cracks. The only time the management messages back is if I try to contact their superiors and still won’t fix anything. They won’t negotiate reductions in rent or return messages about maintenance. Save yourself time, money and headache do not rent from these crooks.
I am a resident at a property owned by Redside. I love my building, however we have been experiencing an alarming increase in package theft. I understand that this is an issue plaguing many apartment buildings, but we have repeatedly reported this to redside and have been met with a nonchalant attitude and no help. They advertise this building as secure yet there has been no action to help residents feel more safe having important mail and packages delivered there. Best part is, there are CAMERAS in our building, however they “don’t work” and there has been no effort to get them to work even t…
The property manager was very kind and responsive with all my concerns about the apartment! Great customer service and very friendly. I have a panoramic view of downtown from my unit! I'm extremely pleased.
Awesome
Great location. Great views. Great staff.
⚠️ UPDATE: Management responded to my review — but left out several key points. I'll address those below. --- ⚠️ If you are considering living here, please read this before signing a lease. I normally don't write reviews, but after living here for more than a year I felt future tenants should know the real day-to-day experience. 📌 RATING Some new tenants mentioned receiving discounts in exchange for positive Google reviews. Friends of mine who were unhappy here still left five-star reviews because of that. Management did not address this at all in their response. 💰 HIDDEN FEES The advertis…
I love the place, very convenient. I walked to the grocery store, it’s only 2 blocks from the building. My studio apartment is very spacious , clean and good vibes. The neighbors are friendly and helpful. I think I will enjoy my stay.
Had a leak in my apartment. After calling maintenance I was contacted by the maintenance guy within an hour. He showed up about an hour after that. Turned out the leak was due to flooding two floors above my unit. They provided the equipment to dry the area (a dehumidifier and floor fan) and left them with for almost a week. I've only had a couple of issues, thus being the only major one, and it has been resolved quickly.
Great apartment and treated me great as I was there while in a certification program in the area. Very helpful and willing to help through any situation as I had one in between my 7mo program prolonging my stay.
I have never had a worse experience with a rental management company, and I have rented apartments throughout my adult life. We requested information on unexplained utility increases in November and despite requesting it several more times never received any explanation, just an admission that yes, they were inexplicably higher. The remodel they’re doing on the building, that forced all of the old tenants to move out is cosmetic, I believe the real reason they forced us all out of our homes was so they could increase the rent on the apartments by about 70%. The safety of the elevator remains …
Was here for a few years and have zero complaints. Patty is so sweet and any time I had a Maint issue it was handled so fast. The inside is very nice and redone. If you’re looking for a comfortable and safe place to call home, this is it. Sad to go but my job changed. Would stay if I could. Apply today!
I am a current tenant and have experienced ongoing maintenance and management issues that have been frustrating to resolve. Most recently, my oven was nonfunctional for an extended period. Despite repeated requests for repair, the issue was not addressed in a timely manner. I later learned that the replacement part was not ordered until February 4, after the City became involved due to the delay. The repair was finally completed only after that escalation. In addition to this issue, there have been recurring problems with basic building operations, including inconsistent handling of trash, r…
Definitely don't rent from them if you have the option. They always raise rents but never update their buildings. They usually take over a month to respond to maintenance requests. Our internet line was cut by the landscaping crew and there was no action taken to remedy the situation. We also had our apartment entered without prior notice and I came home to a random man in my bedroom and my dog terrified. We have reached out multiple times to them, filed complaints, but they know they can get away with these things so they just don't respond.
Maintence at the Arete is #1 like our Seahawks.
I had a small maintenance issue and it was fixed immediately. The staff is so friendly and helpful. A wonderful place to live and just blocks from Downtown Seattle. I highly recommend living here.
Maggie did a great job on fixing my shower!
I lived in the Carmona Court apartments in Seattle for 4 years, of which the last 1.5 years were under Redside. They continued to honor the lease and didn't increase my rent, and I had a wonderful experience with Jonathan as my building supervisor!
I’m a long term resident of Carmona Ct. And recently was the first time I needed maintenance for three repairs at once - a clogged toilet; a noisy heating vent; and change of ceiling light bulbs. I submitted my maintenance request and was scheduled for a next day appointment between 8 and noon. Diego arrived mid-point in the range and first discussed and looked at the problems and he consulted me on the level/color of the light bulbs. Diego completed all three repairs in one visit and was knowledgeable and efficient in completing all three. He left me a note telling me all repairs were succes…
Got my car scratched in one of the property I leased in Redmond Tudor manor but I pay for parking here single space . No response from management when I text them what happened. Paying out of pocket due to my car insurance deductible. Waste of my time for my effort to go to work . I liked my place yes the micro studio is small and the walls are thin , I’m a mindful person . But waking up to go to my car and seeing to lined scratches on my drive side door . I thought Redmond was a nice place? My parking spot got taken 3 times already and when people take it I have no choice but to park at the …
Overall I found my experience with Redside very underwhelming. I spent a year at the Allegro apartments in Seattle and would say that this was the least responsive property management company that I have had to work with in my life. They were very slow to respond to maintenance requests and seemed to care very little about ongoing issues such as a particularly loud tenant who frequently had the police called to the building, and unhoused folks frequently setting up camp on our front steps, near the dumpsters. I also found the fact they insisted on showing my apartment to future tenants, despi…
I’ve had an ongoing issue with a malfunctioning dryer since I moved in. The dryer stops every few minutes, alarms constantly, and often does not dry clothes, even after proper filter and water maintenance. I have reported this issue multiple times over the past three months. Maintenance has checked the unit, but only briefly, and the problem has never been properly diagnosed or fixed. The same issue continues to happen. After three months! Plus when I was looking for apartments in Seattle a couple that I checked changed the price when I was about to sign the contract (more than 100 dlls). I …
Muy limpio y seguro, estoy satisfecha con mi mudanza.
It was kind and meticulous in checking and explaining what I wanted. Thank you very much.
Literally so impossible to communicate with. Negligent and scammy, raise rents indiscriminately, never take maintenance issues seriously, worst company I’ve rented from and that’s saying a lot in this city.
I Love this place very nice people leave here. And Olivia is a very sweet person. She very helpful and willing to help with anything she can help you resolve any issues that you make have. Olivia makes that place light up she works hard every day and make her self available at at any of the day or weekend. Olivia keep up the good work you awesome 👌
This is going on 3 years I have lived at The Grove,management always great and maintenance too.Rented sight unseen from SF,goes smooth ever since.4th floor,elevator,bike and storage room.Roof top is nice,locker for packages.My studio is very pretty with rose lighting in bathroom,tub too.End spot,nice.
We've lived at Park Side Apartments for 8 years. The location is great, it's quiet, and although the apartments are older, they are in a good condition 👍 and reasonably priced. Rent stayed low and maintenance was prompt. Great management. I moved out because apartments used to be pet-free, unfortunately I'm allergic to pets.
Beware of mystery charges & illegal withholding of your security deposit. I lived at a property managed by Redside Partners for ~4 years. I caught incorrect charges on my bills with Redside numerous times during that span. They were always quick to remove the "mistake" charges after I pointed them out, but I imagine other less vigilant tenants are unknowingly paying "mistake" fees regularly. After moving out of my unit ~40 days ago, Redside has still yet to return my security deposit and failed provide any notice for why they were withholding it within the 30-day period required by Washingto…
Concerned. I shared more info to the email listed in the comment but am not satisfied with the response provided. Looking forward to what else they have to say. I am very open to ideas that would help bring down the utility costs, just an example. A couple years ago I was paying less than $40/ bill. And the costs have gone up significantly since Redside has taken on managing. My most recent bill was over $100, and this is in addition to multiple rent increases. I would also add they use a third party company for insurance and they may try to enroll you in multiple plans.
We just moved in to the oregonian from a previous redside property one month ago. Unfortunately since our first night here we have faced aggression from our neighbors directly above us (they bang on their floor/our ceiling whenever they get upset with us rather than trying to communicate) We are getting reprimanded by the property manager for simply existing in our unit. We don't have guests, we don't play music, we sometimes work late hours and get home after 10pm. We have been getting reported for simply using our kitchen and closing our bedroom and bathroom doors. It is unprofessional from …
