If I could possibly assign them a 0 for the rating, I would. The place is falling apart (I've been locked out twice due to a faulty lock), maintenance is slow to respond, and the management is not only rude and extremely disorganized, but they have charged me ludicrously, and when I called to inquire about it, have insinuated that I am a liar by saying my story is "completely untrue." I have been locked out twice, and the second time they switched locks on me without notifying me. Now they are saying that I switched locks on them and are charging me for it, when I neither have the motive or knowledge to change the lock for the apartment. Why would I go through the trouble? I have been a diligent tenant, paying rent as early as a week prior to when it is due, and tolerating their slow maintenance response. (It took about two months for them to change a bulb.) If you must rent from them, document EVERYTHING. Otherwise, avoid at all costs! You would be better off renting somewhere farther away or on-campus housing.
Pros: the close location allows them to take advantage of students
Cons: everything.

The worst one in the world!!!! no managment, no maintenance. Don't rent it, otherwise do it at your cost. You cann't imagine the way they do business. No, not business, but robberying.

I agree with the previous review. This company is HORRIBLE!! All of the buildings they manage are little more than slums. They pretty much prey upon VCU students that are in a bind for a place. They are EXTREMELY rude, there is no concept of a service provider/consumer relationship, once you sign the lease and hand over your money, the could care less about your concerns. Also BEWARE that they will do ANYTHING to not return your security deposit. I was not returned $200 of my security deposit because of absolutely bogus charges, I even thought about suing them because I was so upset. The only reason they are still in business is because they have buildings close to VCU, despite how slummy they are and their non-existent customer service. AVOID them at all costs, you will feel scammed out of your money!

I lived in a Metro Properties apartment for a year, and it was awful. The building was falling apart, there was mold growing in through the walls, they were rude on the phone, and they talked about us behind our backs to our neighbors. When water was dripping down the walls behind the paint and pooling on the floor, we called them about it to see if it could be fixed. It tookTHREE MONTHS. Meanwhile, I had to stay at a friends because the mildew was bothering my allergies so much. Also, in the two bed room apartment next to us lived TWO FAMILIES. In other words, four adults and seven kids. Metro Properties preys on college kids and immigrants. They are some of the worst Slum Lords in the fan.
