This is one of the most greediest company I have ever came across. My rent is increased 20% in last 1.5 years and they change there policies anytime they wish. Beware of them

I live in 11 Brattle Dr. in Arlington. The rent rises a lot, $70 increase per month every 12-month. Fixed lease length, you have to sign 1-year lease every year. Maintenance is terrible. Last winter, I had to contact the Arlington Board of Health to force them to fix the heating problem. My neighbors living upstairs cannot sleep in their bedroom, because of the loud noise of the heating system in that room. The management is terrible, the new manager on-site is not honest. He agreed with me on a new rent. But when I receive... read more

I lived in one of their apartments for a year and as far as management companies go they did a pretty good job by my book. Maintenance was done pretty promptly and you always saw the Hamilton Company maintenance workers around the buildings so if you needed something in a pinch they were very responsive. The couple of times I did have issues I went over to their office to speak with Brandy who was assigned to our building. She was always very helpful and able to respond to our questions and concerns. The one complaint I did ... read more

I've been living at 81 Essex for almost a year now and cannot wait to move out. Like so many others, my list of complaints about the Hamilton Company is endless. I have to start with laundry because it is the most frequent annoyance and the situation has not improved since I moved in. The laundry units break down frequently and I usually have to put a load through the dryer twice if I don't want wet, stinky clothes (every wash is $1.75, and $2.00 per dryer load - it adds up). The machines don't take quarters or debit card... read more

DO NOT RENT APARTMENT from Hamilton Company! I put one star because that is the least number of stars I can put. I am referring to 1144-1156 Commonwealth Avenue. I cannot wait to move out of my place. The place is filthy, mice constantly visit my bedroom and bite my bag besides my bed while I was sleeping. There's a smell within the building that just make you feel as if you were in a slum (or should I say I AM in a slum). Of course there are roaches as well, but it seems to become minor issue when there are mice. What make... read more

There are a few things that they do well: They fixed everything we have asked them to fix... though to be fair, most of those things should have been in working order before we moved in... but it happens. Now, on to the reason they get 1 star. A mere month and a half into our 9-month lease, we got a renewal notification telling us that our rent, if we were to renew, would be $250 LESS than what we currently pay. While we had been seriously considering moving out (we took the place in December, so it was slim pickings to star... read more

If I could give this company 0 stars I would. Our complex was taken over a few months ago by the Hamilton company. The last few months have been horrific. We do not have hot water every about three days. They have given out keys to rental agents as expected because we are moving soon. The issue is they did not inform us that a key to our apartment was not returned to them, a key with our address on it. It was found on the street and returned to us. This is a neighborhood that a few weeks ago a woman had someone break into he... read more

Awful company staff!! Worst apartment ever!! My roommate and I lived in a HC apartment for a year. The first day we moved into that apartment was the start of our awful life. The apt is not worth to pay the rent at all!! Roaches....well, compremised if it's pretty old building....But rats (mice) .......To be honest, I've never seen a rat or mouse in any aparment before. I even caught the first one I saw in that apartment. Don't even mention the broken sink in the bathroom and worst wood floor ever...There were holes and bro... read more
