Georgian Court

Drafty windows, vinyl fake wood flooring that lifts, poor insulation, dirty corridors, poor management (Nash Properties), broken washer/​dryers. John and Amy Nash were not very nice after I signed the lease. Only positive was that the neighborhood was pretty quiet, but my car did get broken into once. Thankfully they just stole some cash and didn’t try to jump start it. You can find better buildings and management in the neighborhood behind Schnucks on Lindell for cheaper. I was able to commute everyday to school on the Metro without any incidents beside the occasional unwanted catcalls or solicitations for money. Asprient Properties is another management to be avoided once you avoid this place.

I have lived in this apartment for about a year now and here are the reasons why I regret living in this property.
1) The office is always closed. I have never seen the office open. So when I had issues with the stove, heat, smell, noise, etc. I have no one to ask for help.
2) No one picks the phone. So when the office is closed the only alternative is the phone and no one picks the phone. It always goes to voice message. I have left many voice messages and I never got a return call.
3) The place is dirty. It seems like no one is cleaning the corridors. It always has this weird smell.
4) The location is not very safe. I have seen people fight just few blocks from the building.
5) You can’t make payments online. All payments are via mail.
6) If you are late on your payment by even a day, you will be charged $ 50.
7) Nash Properties, who used to own this building took even the dirty doormat with them when the ownership transferred.
8) I am paying $ 750/​month for a one bedroom apartment, not including utilities. By STL standard, I should be able to find a better one in a good location.
I am looking forwarding to finishing my lease for the year and move.

The only thing I don’t like is the drafty windows. The pricing is great, the apartments are beautiful, maintenance is very quick. balconies are nice. No complaints here.

This has been the most difficult and most frustrating management team/​business I have ever encountered in my many years of renting apartments. I had multiple complaints I had about the condition of our unit, and maintenance staff is a joke. We went multiple weeks without air conditioning, and then weeks without heat, not to mention the 5 days my smoke detector went off every 30 seconds that no one could figure out how to fix. The units appears to be nice and new and modern, but they are thrown together so quickly with improper professionals and cheap materials, that they truthfully are not nice at all.
I think it goes without saying that I am highly unlikely to recommend Nash Properties or Georgian Courts to anyone. I hope something can be learned from how this business treats its tenants.

My family and I have lived here for about five months now. I love the apartment and I think the rent is fair (I guess any thing would be fair coming from New York). A two bedroom one bath is about $ 795, then you have to add parking (which was $ 15, now I think its $ 35), utilities (which is based on the number of household members… I think one person is $ 15 per month, two people is $ 20, etc…), so your rent does add up a little bit. Anyway I love the staff (well most of them anyway). The maintenance team is great… when my air conditioner went out over the summer they actually installed two window unit air conditioners until they were able to fix the central unit. Mr. Nash is the owner of the building, and he is wonderful in my opinion (his wife is not as friendly as he is.
The only problems I hate is all the college kids that live here, they’re very rude and disrespectful. Example is when I was coming from taking a walk with my son, I was trying to get in the side door and this man was standing there when I opened it. Anyway instead of being a gentleman or just polite and hold the door for me so I could get the stroller in the door, he squeezes pass the stroller, walks in the dirt just to get out the door… no thank you for holding door open for me or excuse me, nothing. As you can see I’m still pissed about that. Another issue I had is I think (and I say think because I don’t have proof) that someone was taking my clothes out the dryer and put their clothes in there. Because when I went to get my clothes they were still wet as if I didn’t even turn the dry on. But it only happened on one occasion, if it continued I would have made a complaint. What I really like is they have security cameras on each floor and at every entrance which is monitored by the staff. There was incident were a young lady came to my door saying that she used to live there and wanted to know if I had any mail for her (I was already living in the apartment for 5 months), anyway I called the office and the next day they fixed the broken side door and installed a camera in the stairway.
The area is very quiet, four blocks from Forest Park, the museum, and the metrolink. And like a five minute drive to Washington U (that’s why there are so many college kids here).
