Stay away!

Horrible horrible horrible! They get you in with signs around the town, advertising and when you go look at the place you think it's great. Well what's that saying? If it looks too good to be true it is. First year wasn't horrible but DO NOT stay after one year. Electric bill averaged from $200-300 a month. I talked to neighbors and theirs are around the same amount. They send you a water and sewer bill. It's just a bill. Nothing showing how much water you used or anything. They send the exact or close to the same amount for water and sewer to the whole apartment complex. They get a bill and then spread it evenly to their residents which is illegal. If you ask for a water bill with what you used, you will be ignored. 1. Very rude staff that are not helpful at all. My mother is disabled and has medical problems and was late on rent a few days. You know what we got on the door? A notice to report to court a week later. Yes if you are a few days late on rent you will get a notice on your door to go to court to pay the costs. They also tack on court costs that are $136-300. So you need to go to court, pay your rent and extra costs for being a few days late. You also must pay the whole amount by the 4th of each month. Any normal person would help with payment arrangements but not this place. You pay the whole bill by the date or court you go. Imagine your mother who can't walk and and having serious medical issues to just be ignored and talked down at like she is a piece of ***. Super rude and these people aren't right 2. The turnover rate of resident's is crazy. I've had 3 new up stairs neighbors since I've moved here and see a new resident moving in or out of this apartment complex every week. 3. Grounds are usually good. But recently dogs have been pooping all over and after reporting this problem we just get ignored over and over again. So watch your feet when you walk. We will be moving out this August because every year they raise the rent $45. So living here three years rent would have went up $135. Add that to everything else overpriced and it's not worth it. My review may seem harsh but it's the reality. I've lived in a few apartments in my life and this is by far the worst ever. Stay far away!

Berkeley Trace Apartments Bensalem PA

Wish I had nicer things to say about Berkeley Trace Apartments in Bensalem PA, but the apartments are out-dated. Maintenance is scary. The property manager and office staff unfriendly. The grounds a hazard. I cut myself on some metal they left on the grounds, when they changed the windows. The maintenance here is a safety hazard for me and my dog. The rent at Berkeley Trace Apartments is high and the utility bills are through the roof. As for the kids, hopefully they did not cut themselves. I would not rent here again. Berkeley Trace Apartments in Bensalem PA is the worst decision I ever made.
