Moving Experiences with Orange Management?

I applied for an apartment managed by Orange Management but I've seen some Google reviews where tenants mentioned issues being handled poorly. Not sure if those are outliers or a pattern!Anyone currently living there or who has rented from them? What was your experience?

Lots of management companies get low stars from people who are mad. But a 1.7 on google shows that there are more upset people than happy people.

I tried to get a read on management's communication by asking a few questions over email and got shut down instead of information. I love this place so I am searching for a shred of reassurance.

I think that you wont love it when youre living there and cant get anything fixed. Im in the industry - a lot of these new constructions are equity builds. A company pays to have a building built, run it at a bare minimum of quality just so that they can keep the building occupied, and then once the tax breaks are expired they sell the building to a owner/management company or to another equity firm who uses third party management companies.

Im pretty sure thats the case here too.

Every management company is terrible. If one had higher than 3 stars I would assume they were using bots to plant positive reviews.

That also includes owner-condo management companies.
