North Hills Village Apartments

I advise NO ONE move here. This place is terrible. Professionalism is a negative zero… and consideration is a major Fail. Leasing office NEVER opens on time. They have people working on apartments at 730 AM when others are trying to sleep. INCONSIDERATE. They don’t care about your comfortability here. If you have the extra 10 to 20 bucks a months to move across the st DO IT! I’ve been here a year and already 4 new managers have been through here. Worst place I’ve ever called HOME! I can’t wait to get out of here.

The worst apartment complex you will find in LA believe me!!! And it’s for $ 1300, it’s a month salary people! You have a new manager every 3 months, they change all the time, and they don’t give a sh**t! As well as the owner as well as the supervisor! The building is extremely poor, old, dirty, with a lot, A LOT of cockroaches, there is no way you will get rid of them! The apartment itself is like an abounded building, with very old and dirty carpets, the walls are being painted 100 times over all the dirt, and even over cockroaches 0_​disgusting!!! The kitchen has no refrigerator, no microwave, no nothing! The shelves and the stove old and dirty as well! YOU DON’T WANT TO SEE THE BATHROOM!!! Mold and rust is everywhere!!! The air conditioner is not working for 5 months, the hitter as well, we were dying of a heat all summer and now dying all the winter because it’s darn cold here! People STAY AWAY from here! The day you will move to this building will be the worst day in your life!

Update since I moved out of that place. I sued the landlord to get the remainder of my deposit back. The place was cleaner than when I moved in. I was ready. I had pictures before and after. I had witnesses before and after. I 1^st sued the wrong entity. They kept postponing the date. They sent a representative to the court who had her head somewhere else the whole time. She tried to say she had to charge me for cleaning the carpet. I showed her a list of what is illegal to charge a tenant. An agent did a walk through with me and said the place was perfect. He didn’t give me anything. I get a list later. How would anyone know? they didn’t even go in with me on the last day. They tried to take money out for a new toilet lid. They had just put a brand new one in 2 months before I moved out. They tried to get me for new blinds. I put new blinds in before I moved. I had the carpet professionally shampooed. Anyway got the judgement back. They have to give me the remainder and the court fees paid. She told me Marlo was no longer the manager there. If you want to get your deposit back, you have to sue North Hills Village apartments. message me if you need more info.

Could you believe that things have gotten even worse? Well, they have.
There have been a string of people coming and going through the leasing office. Each seeming increasingly more harried and stressed until they are suddenly gone. Voilà new «manager» who is still not managing at all.
Yeap, you guessed right, garbage disposal still out of order after 2 years. Cockroaches are still trying to share my apartment, although each trespasser pays with its life.
The stuff they painted over the counters and bathtub is peeling.
I am not particularly demanding, but do you think I am being too harsh?
Someone painted over the white marks on the ridiculously high bumps on the parking lot floor and to compound the issue, the lights do not work and it is pitch black out there. Yes, I communicated to the then“manager” my concern about me or someone else tripping and falling. Of course, nothing has been done. I guess we’ll have to wait for the injuries to befall.

This place is a f**king joke! We moved out last July and thank God we did! The apartments are infested with roaches, they paint over everything and nothing is brand new when you move in. When we moved out I cleaned everything and left the apartment in top condition. NEVER GOT MY SECURITY DEPOSIT BACK!!! WHAT A JOKE! The manager is so rude and inconsiderate and a fake person! TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE experience living here!
STAY FAR AWAY!

Is there a –0 star button? No, well I guess I have to put a star. Let me begin.
Managers-​the manager is never around but when he is he has no answers more than he will turn it over to management (why r u there MArlo?) He has no sense of emergency or care about you or ur old broken down apartment so don’t bother. Then they employed a girl named Vanessa she is always there sticking notes on doors every damn day there is a note wtf. anyhow when u ask what its about she says she is just the leasing agent and I can come back tomorrow for Marlo. Oh don’t ask the old Chinese looking lady anything she directs you to Marlo.
RENT I am here 5 months and got a note on my door about me owing money when I inquired, yes u guessed it I was asked to see Marlo tomorrow. What I did get was that in my contract myself and all others should pay $ 928.xx as an offset to what they should be paying for rent stabilizer $ 43.xx. So I signed for the advertised on craigslist lease agreement 925 and should be paying 928. xx which is unfair because they snuck that in. When leaving the office Vanessa rudely told me «it doesn’t matter if I signed the acknowledgement I have to pay it. Well excuse u… are u working my long hours? Its the principle don’t advertise for something else then sneak in our fees.
APT when moving in I don’t and still don’t have any screens over my windows so its dusty as heck and anyone can crawl through them, its been 6 months and they still don’t get the «parts» for it. Ohhhhhh they paint the sink, countertop and bathroom tub etc so scrub lightly and don’t let us kids near the paint chips., the blinds are ruined and some don’t turn lol, yeah. they r ordering that too, some crews fell out my cabinet door, old ass air conditioning unit, small parking space and I mean u have to be centered and of course they made us buy garage openers for gates that stay open. I have requested the new stove from I moved in because the old one won’t shut and up to now I still haven’t gotten it and it is included in my rent can you believe that This place doesnt surprise me anymore.
This place is unlivable did I mention the plumbing runs through the walls so don’t be alarmed when you hear your neighbor upstairs handling business & don’t be scared also when you hear the water running through your walls this place is a hell hole every other day you have a note on your door about inspections what are the inspector if they don’t fix anything it is annoying and I definitely don’t want anybody in my apartment so just beware.
So know that I’ve said all my ailments let me just be clear I didn’t make the decision to move here but because of this is a really nice big space you will be fooled but don’t be don’t be foolish the pool is open 9 to 5 only when the office is open so hard working people will never even see the light of the pool.
Highlights mold, mildew, lack of good management, no repairs. Be warned all that glitters is not gold.

There should be a negative star rating. I only have to put 1 star because it’s required but this place is HORRIBLE!!! WHATEVER YOU DO … DO NOT MOVE HERE! It’s invested with roaches, has bed bugs warnings, which I found to be true! absolutely horrible maintance inside appartments. Every damage, leak counter tops sinks is CAKED with layers and layers of CHEAP paint. They never truely FINISH your apartment before you move in, and it’ll NEVER get fixed as time goes on! I’ve been here almost a year and it was time to go the 1^st month! Once my contract is over I am OUT! This place is soooo awful. We hopped on the place at first because of the spacious apartments and great price! (Well being new to the SFV who would of known). Anyhow the pool is NEVER open, only when they want to open it, the manager said he opens it every other day. WTF is that? The pool should be open from the times it says WHEN YOU RENT THIS PLACE! The manager is also REALLY nosey. LOL. Must not get paid enough! You can’t even get a call back from him! Maintance will come into your apartment when you are NOT HOME! The gates and doors and security cameras. HAHA. THEY NEVER WORK! They make it seem like it’s secure with the cameras and locked gates and entry and security guards, BUT I have had insidents where they couldn’t pull up on camera (or didn’t see it happen). HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE WHEN THEY SAID THEY HAVE 50 CAMERAS UP??. Then the security guards DO NOT WORK WEEKENDS or AFTER 10PM (one of them told me) I think they stay now though until 11pm. HA! It smells like weed all the time which sapposibly is not allowed in or outside of the appartments. My child always complains and it’s super embarrassing if you bring over company. There’s always a bunch of kids, and people hanging out, so it’s loud and crouded… There is soo much NEGATIVE stuff to say about these appartments, but not enough time or space! ONLY POSTIVE THING, SPACIOUS AND CHEAPISH RENT! _​FYI DO NOT MOVE HERE IF YOU ARE NOT USE TO THESE THINGS_

I put 1 star but it deserves negative 5 stars. I AM NOT EVICTED AND STILL LIVE HERE. This building is a piece of shit. It drew me in because it was big and spacious and decently priced but a whole bunch of things not fixed and never have been fixed. The middle of the summer our AC broke it took them a freaking month to come fix it, after we refused to pay the rent until they fixed it, then it broke after a day and that was 3 weeks ago and they still haven’t came to fix it and guess what, they’re not getting rent again until they fix it. In the dead of summer in the San Fernando Valley when its been 100 degrees? and its like 110 in the apartment? AND THEN they never have the pool open all summer except for randomly when they feel like opening it. what the F are we paying rent for? They take forever to fix anything. These stupid kids run around everywhere banging on walls, doors and windows, and say the most rudest things outside my window, thank god i don’t have small children. The parking lot gate is forever broken so any serial killer or rapist can waltz on through to take their picking. DONT EVER MOVE HERE! STAY AWAY!!!

RUN! RUN FAR FAR AWAY! This place is infested with roaches! They try to trick renters to move in ASAP to avoid having to deal with more details. At the time of move in, everything looked immaculate! They had just fumigated the place before they showed it to us, so there was no trace of roaches. One week into our stay there, I kept seeing roaches, then started noticing roach droppings, urine, and eggs EVERYWHERE! Fresh — every morning! I clean every day only to find more in the morning. In the bathroom, in the kitchen (on my dishes!), in the living room, AND in the bedroom! I have boric acid all over my apartment just to try to control this nightmare until I can leave this place! I’m trapped in a 1 year lease, which will be taken care of by my attorney. It looked too good to be true, and it was. The apartment itself is absolutely wonderful! Spacious, bright, and affordable! …and now i know why! The management wants to fumigate my apartment, but what is that going to do if there are a huge number of units all connected to one another and all infested!? These things are in the walls, so there’s no way! I spoke to dozens of pest control companies, they all said the same thing. My neighbors have it worse, as they say, the longer you stay, the worse it gets! Save yourself the enormous headache and take your money elsewhere! There are kids, toddlers, infants in these homes, covered in roaches. Believe me, the price is not worth it, it’s better to pay a bit more than live in the 3^rd world country conditions that this place is in. Oh, and after one of them fell on my head off the ceiling, I sleep with tissue in my ears… this is an absolute nightmare!!!
