Ridgecrest Apt.

I have lived in Ridgecrest Vancouver for about 2 years and I couldn’t be more grateful for my stay. I’ve been in both the one and two bedroom units, they’re not necessarily the most boujie apartments but they large and well kept. The absolute best part about this place is the community. The property manager Mary Ann is blunt, but she will go to bat for you if you have any problem: management or otherwise. I’d literally pick her in a fight. The residents themselves are extremely kind and watch out for each other. The whole maintenance team (Dave and Ed M. especially) are WONDERFUL. Very personable and checked up on me multiple times after I had an emergency at my apartment. If I’m in need of an apartment in the future, this will be my first call.

I have lived here for three years and every negative review of the manager is 100% correct! It truly breaks my heart the way Maryann treats people. I have experience not only as a landlord but in landlord tenant law. She should be, at minimum, charged with harassment against many residents here. She plays favorites and gives different rules to different people. She manipulates the owners and convinces them somehow that he is sweet and innocent when she is anything but. However, I do feel that the owners do their very best to keep up with all of the projects that these 50 year old apartment have. In light of that, you should understand that that's why your rent is so cheap

I just read another review on here claiming that the manager is extremely unprofessional and she is 100% correct. Apartments are falling apart, cheap, old materials, had wood chips in cabinets as soon as I moved in, bath tub was disgusting as well. Apartment buildings are NOT INSULATED! Thin cheap vinyl on top floor of apartments, when everyone knows there should be carpet on top floors to minimize noise. Cannot walk normal in your own home because tenants will complain about how you walk. Move here and be prepared to walk on eggshells and not be comfortable in your own home. Received several calls from manager of the property of her screaming at me in a unprofessional tone. Very weird behavior for a manager, seems extremely unstable to talk to tenants that way and not a professional manne

While staff seems helpful and responsive, after you make it in the door any promises of remodels or upkeep go by the waste side. Manager continually belittles, gossips and annoys tenants over minor issues. Rules are enforced arbitrarily and capriciously depending on manager's momentary whims. Note that this comes across as yelling at you like you are a two year old and not at all professional. The noise level is very high from apartments in the stack but side apartments are ok. Complete mold farms. I originally discounted the notes from Hun below but after being here and getting to know the manager the response makes total sense. I believe (but do not know) that the manager is responding saying they are the owner.

Apartment manager lies to look good in front of her superiors, the rooms are mold farms. They intend to let in the weirdest and craziest of people. Do not rent here you will be unhappy. Place is old and needs a wrecking ball to start over . Management needs a severe mental evaluation.
