Sep 2018: The Glenn has decided to take the law into their own hands and put ALL of their residents out on the streets after Hurricane Florence. I'm sure this is probably a play for insurance dollars, and the management company (Phillips) should be prosecuted. Tenants still have rights, and an attorney will help the residents get paid for damages, regardless of any clause in the lease which cannot (and does not) supersede tenant protections under the law. Review from Google Sep 2018: They don't answer the phones, they make empty agreements involving maintenance. I got mold and my toilet practically erupted from what I suspect is faulty plumbing. And the longer I live there the more shoddy work I find. Smh. don't do this to yourself unless you just need a really cheap place to love. Keep your receipts, cause they love to hit you with false charges. Best of luck! Review from Google Aug 2018: Do not live here. This place is horrible! Grass is always a foot high. When it rains a normal rain I have a lake in my backyard. The gutters overflow because no one has cleaned the gutters probably since they were installed. I count the days until I can move out Review from Google Jun 2018: DO NOT LIVE HERE. The front office is run by idiots that do not communicate with their co-workers, bugs in the apartments, outdated appliances, zero counter space, 3 shared walls, only windows in the front, floods during normal rain storms so deep to the point you cant move your car out, etc. We even had an incident that we were sitting in our living room one night and someone else UNLOCKED OUR DOOR! Complained to the front desk and had to argue with them as they wanted to charge us to have our locks changed for something that was clearly not our fault. Also took them months to pay us back money they owed us. Only thing nice was my neighbors. Review from Google Mar 2018: You guys are awesome! When I have a request you take care of the problem without me getting any headaches. Thank you so much for taking care of my apartment. I love my cozy little apartment so much! Review from Google Jan 2018: If you're thinking of securing a lease with this apartment complex or Phillips Management Company at all, please for your own sake, reconsider. The office staff who run The Glen are completely and utterly incompetent and underhanded. They will do ANYTHING to blame residents for any issues with the apartments to avoid responsibility for making necessary repairs, including being totally dishonest, violating residents' rights, and going against the professional advice of plumbers, pest control professionals, HVAC, etc. Bed bugs and black mold run rampant here. Avoid avoid avoid at all costs! Review from Google Dec 2017: It is pretty good place but you have to stay on them to get things fixed and there have not been any up grades in years you hear your neighbors walking and talking in their apartments Review from Google Dec 2017: I like this place. The people in the office are very nice and will help resolve your issue if there is anything wrong with your apartment. I am very happy with my apartment. Review from Google Dec 2017: I can't wait to leave this place they are so stuck up and mean they never help I called everyday for 3 weeks trying to get someone to fix a leaked pipe in my house not until I told them I wouldn't pay the rent they came to fix it when they did my carpet and wall molded I have a 3 year old that wouldve made her sick then out of no where no notice or documentation signed they started adding my water bill to my rent after a year in a half did they fix my back door where the previous owners broke they ain't worth a damn TAKE YOUR CHANCES IN A HOMELESS SHELTER been here 3 years to long lawn care comes at like 6 am like people dont have a job or children forget about your sleep and blow so much dirt under my door every damn time they're quick to throw threats about your home and thier money DONT...DO..IT HEATH MY WORDS Review from Google Sep 2017: I AM BEYOND PISSED WITH THE GLEN!!! first off the GLEN had put a work order in for a new smoke alarm. Which I was not aware they were doing,I come home, door unlocked, lights on, they left my apartment a mess and busted open a bottle water and left the puddle!!!! WHAT ADULT DOES THAT??!! I should not have to come home and clean up a mess that THE GLEN made!!! And the worst part is, Maintenance was chit chatting in the parking lot and left. So now I have to deal with this. I will NEVER be referring this place to ANYONE!! RIDICULOUS!! Review from Google Sep 2017: The management has obviously been writing reviews on this page. This place is a nightmare. They never fix anything. I had raw sewage flooding my patio and requested a fix. This went on for a year until I was finally able to move out. Look them up in the news. They have mild growing in their apartments. Bedbugs in others. They even have a building that caught fire 2 years ago and is yet to be repaired. These guys are slum lords. Stay away. Review from Google Aug 2017: The worst place you can possibly live in, maintenance never comes in. My a/c has not been functioning properly since before the beginning of summer. I have repeatedly called the office about the issue and they have promised to stop by to fix it and they haven't. They've stopped answering my phone calls. I've called them about a puddle that has suddenly appeared by my downstairs bathroom and no one has showed up to fix it. This happened a month ago. I've still to this day have tried to contact them and still get no answer. I've gone into the office and complained they have only promised to come by the next day to fix it and no one appears, shocker. I can not wait until my lease is up, definitely do not recommend anyone to live there. Review from Google Jul 2017: Do not move out here! The rent is constantly going up and doesn't include s*** but trash. This dump isn't worth the "low" price. Rent should be $50/month because that's what it's worth. can't wait to leave this place. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE, TRUST ME!!!!!! If I could give them a -10 as their score I would. They need to upgrade ASAP! Review from Google Jun 2017: Since apparently my review disappeared, me and my mom lived here for about 3 years.We left because we told them every week about our ceiling leaking until we decided to leave because the ceiling caved in and there was a huge whole that maintenance had to come running as water was pouring through the ceiling.We were unable to even shower or use the toilets without water leaking so we decided to leave.After we left about two months after they called us saying they were going to return our deposit well that was two years and we've yet to recieve it we might even sue.
Review from 6/2/17 on Google May 2017: This is the absolute worse place. It's Management every job is not for everyone! I have a water bill after I signed the lease? I had infestation of bed bugs which from others in Wilmington say they have that issue! I would be ok with it after it was fixed but without telling me I had to pay $400. They never talk with you straight! Always dancing around what you ask them I was here for two years my refrigerator was just fixed 4months ago.
Review from 5/16/17 on Google Nov 2016: I have been having problems with my toilet not flushing with me having to plunge it evertime i used the bathroom and my shower knob not working properly. I put in several requests for maintenance to come take a look at it and they came everyone but...they would do the same thing and that's plunge and snake the toilet and tighten the screw on the shower knob. Well these were just one day fixes that didn't work only covered up the problem for a day a two, then im right back to plunging and tighting the screw.
Review from 11/19/16 on Apartment Ratings Sep 2016: What a joke of a place there is nothing for the kids to do. Nothing ever gets fixed when asked. It takes months for anything to get done unless you the office favorite tenant . the office staff is a joke and write there own reviews. it is crime and drug infested . the so called grilling area smells like crap and you have to wear boots cuz no one every picks up the dog crap. so its like land mines . the office staff will not even help the handicap tenants but making there apartment more efficient . no one should rent from this place it is an absolute joke. there is mold in the apartments and roofs that have caved in.
Review from 9/9/16 on Apartment Ratings Jul 2016: Would not recommend this place to no one. Maintenance is a joke . I have had to fix things my self . the office picks who the want to fix things for and rules change on a daily. They act like it a high priced gated community. They worry about what the outside looks like but the inside is run down. Meth labs pedophiles, drive by shootings not a good place at all. Do not move here.
Review from 7/28/16 on Apartment Ratings Mar 2016: While booking an apartment they act like they are your close friends. Once you moved to house they act crazy and doesn't respond to any of our requests. The Service is really poor and we will get the issues fixed after several calls and requests, it will take 2-3 weeks!.
Recently even though I told my friend about these pathetic conditions, he has applied for an apartment. Initially they didn't show the house saying its not ready yet and try to grab a application fee from you. Once you applied, they will say its not approved.
Review from 3/30/16 on Apartment Ratings Jun 2015: WE are so happy we read the reviews because we are from new jersey and want to relocate to Wilmington nc in Sept. We were actually going to fill out application and send them money.Thank God for reviews because after reading them 98% are all bad and we have 2 kids one of them is 13 yrs old and I definitely don't want him wondering around a bad complex and get hurt or jumped by somebody.So that one is out of the question I wish there was a way somebody on here could tell me a good complex to rent a 2 bedroom we want to be near historic downtown and money is not an issue that's one of the reasons we are leaving NJ we pay 1,750 a month plus all utilities.
Review from 6/2/2015 on Apartment Ratings May 2015: Here we go... I moved into the Glen in fall 2012. I am finally leaving after what has seemed like 10 years. The office staff seem very friendly at first but once your name is on that lease they act like they own you. All the appliances are ancient and after both the oven and dishwasher have broken in various ways (including simply falling apart, doors falling off, burners not working, lock on dishwasher breaking, ect..) they still refuse to replace them. The plumbing is absolutely atrocious. The shower, which sits directly above the living room, leaked through the top floor into the light fixture of the living and onto the carpet.
Review from 5/29/15 on Apartment Ratings Dec 2014: Unfortunately I still live in the glen. Okay so within the first week after moving in, the apartment flooded out and all my things I lost...luckily I had renters insurance with state farm. In the kitchen I have a problem with underneath the sink flooding everytime I was my dishes....the guy who came to fix it took a look at it and wen I say he took a LOOK I'm saying that's all he did...he came ...took a look and said 'oh I be right back I need some tools" and never returned. So for the past 2 years I been here the sink does the same thing and its because the pipe is not long enuf so as u put on the water the pipes underneath separate and the water goes everywhere. I also had problems with my air condition in which once again a maintenance worker came and RIGGED the air condition unit outside and left it as is. Review from 12/10/2014 on Google Jun 2013: I loved living at the Glen. It is wicked cheap for the amount of space you get and it is an amazing location. I have lived there for a year now and will be getting a new apartment in the same complex.
There are some draw backs. Bugs are a bit of a constant, but as long at you keep the apartment clean its not too bad. And they are awesome about sending the exterminator when you ask. Never had major problems with maintenance. The parking lot has poor drainage when it rains, but parking was always available. Walls are a little thin. And windows were drafty. And the kitchen is SMALL!! Very very small kitchen. But they are the cheapest apartments in Wilmington. I think its worth it.
