Birchwood Village Townhomes and Apartments

New owners are greedy and financially predatory. New fees have been invented and are lumped into rent with minimal notice, grace periods shortened to the minimum they have to allow by law, no consideration. People are terrified of rent increases that are coming. Consistent, reliable tenants are being harassed and incurring fees and fines that didn't exist two months ago. Apartments are not glamorous, built in the 70's with many vintage features from that era because they haven't been updated and are just that old. Walls are thin. Inadequate parking near apartments. Staff has always been great, but they seem to be suffering from this change as well. The owners have the advantage: Barrington apparently now owns 75% of the rental properties in town. Their greed is unchallenged.

Birchwood is such a great community. Safe environment for the kids, well maintained properties and grounds. The kids loved living here! The person at the front desk that just started is amazing too, so helpful.

IT USED TO BE NICE! DON'T ASK FOR ANYTHING, YOU WON'T GET IT, LIKE A NEW REFRIDGERATOR! RENT OUTRAGIOUS! LEASE UNREASONABLE AND A GENERAL LEASE IS UNACCEPTABLE! THEY DON;T LIKE ANSWERING THEIR PHONES, SPENT OUR NEW HIGH RENT TO REMODEL OFFICE THAT WAS REMODELED 3 YEARS AGO! DON'T COME HERE, A JOKE! NO CARPETS, TILES THAT DON'T MATCH. FILTHY ELECTRIC HEAT THAT YOU CAN'T CLEAN. MY HUSBAND AND I ARE LOOKING ELSEWARE.

Everyone i spoke to about getting an apartment were all super nice and helpful. They kept in touched and explained things so clearly. Appreciated them more than anything

The operators seem incapable of keeping business business, and resort to getting involved in petty politics between neighbors. It was clear the entire time i lived there than they liked the neighbor more, for basically no reason. They then sent me a bill 2 months after I moved out for $2.32. Petty is the name o the game with these people.
