Hajjar Management was TERRIBLE.
They began doing very serious, loud, and disruptive construction work shortly after my roommates and I moved in. The construction work consisted of jackhammering up the concrete flooring of the hallway immediately outside my apartment. The jackhammering lasted only for about two weeks, but for those two weeks my roommates and I were absolutely miserable. The noise was so bad that we couldn't even hold a conversation, much less sleep, study, or concentrate. Even when the jackhammering stopped, the construction work continued for MONTHS. This created a significant level of noise that often began very early in the morning. Hajjar routinely shut off the water in our apartment.
Talking with management did not help. We were repeatedly told that the construction work was almost complete (when it wasn't), that it was absolutely necessary and unavoidable, etc. I understand that if construction work is necessary, it is necessary- but you don't rent apartments during MAJOR RECONSTRUCTION!
My roommates and I had to break our lease only six months after we moved in. We moved out on different days over the course of a week. After two of us had moved out, and the third was still packing (and a few days before the day we agreed to move out) Hajjar came into the apartment while the third was out for the day, threw everything from her closet into a box and started repainting.
DO NOT RENT FROM THESE PEOPLE. THEY ARE THE WORST LANDLORDS I HAVE EVER HAD.
p.s. notice that one of the positive reviews was written by hajjar themselves...
