I have lived in my apartment on Heath since 2011 and have been a tenant of Hollyburn since 2013. I am also president of the tenants association here.
Many positives but also some serious negatives.
The on site resident managers are very good where I am and if something is broken in a unit or in the building , it tends to get fixed promptly, if it’s in their power to fix. They should be given far more power!!
My buildings are clean and pest free.
We have no amenities, but finally have direct access from the building into the garage due to the tenants association fighting hard for accessible!!
We have been without security cameras in 90 Heath for over 6 months and I believe we are paying for them through a past above guideline rent increase (AGI), so needs to be replaced.
We had attempted break in and police could do nothing because no camera and blood fingerprints cleaned before they arrive.
In tenants opinion, Hollyburn appears to be obsessed with Above Guidelines Rent Increases (AGIs) here as they are never ending here, and in our opinions are totally unnecessary for an extremely wealthy landlord to be making tenants pay for their investment. We have paid for everything from their balconies to garage painting to toilets, lightbulbs and human rights work that was not up to code. The list goes on and on and on
A major consequence of so many of the above guidelines rent increases is that many on fixed incomes have been force out and/or are being forced from their homes with no place to go. Housing is a human right, but this landlord doesn’t care the another that.
They seem to do the bare minimum when it comes to landscaping and in suite repairs.
My kitchen was supposed to be fixed and they made it worse.
We would like the back yard fixed properly this year, as we don’t want West Nile virus from flooding.
