First, I have read most of these reviews and see Princeton's strategy here. 99% of the 1 star negative reviews are from disgruntled Tennants, while 1% of the 5 star positive reviews are mostly from employees or former employees in order to help boost such a devastating rating...pitiful....yet business as usual like most corporations.

Unfortunately, the people working on site at the Princeton Management owned complex I live in are limited to what they can provide to the residents....so Tennants please remember that when you complain...a lot of the issues come from the greedy top....

I have been a resident at one of their locations for 4 years now. Since moving in, I have had to pretty much clean the common area with my own supplies and laundry room for 8 apts of our bldg. Occasionally facilities will come to sweep and change the garbage bag in the laundry room.(mostly when they are just doing an annual inspection, showing an apartment to a potential tenant or occasional out of the blue)
The apartments are very outdated and when a tenant moves out, the complex puts the bare minimum updates back in...
Rent goes up yearly...and not the same for everyone.. since I lived here some residents will pay $5 more a month...some $15...some $20...some $25...not sure how they are justifying those various increments.

During the pandemic lockdown, the property wouldn't even come out and disinfect the common areas( doors,stairways) and laundry rooms shared by 8 apartments . Except for one time, right before rent was due April 1st so the could put fliers up on the doors and tell us all how we could drop it off in the drop box or pay on line. After that, nothing except fliers on our doors every month and texts to possibly win a gift card if we paid early...

Meanwhile, we had no access for a year to our tiny workout room nor the pool, etc.. yet the rents still increased based on fair market value even though we were not getting what was part of that lease agreement.

Additionally, the monies from the increased
rent this company spends to cosmetically enhance their properties could be used instead to enhance the quality of living for their residents by investing in better energy efficient windows to replace the 20/30 year old drafty windows that cause the residents to endure higher heat and air bills or health issues... or the antiquated heat and are units that are continually needing to be repaired because they don't provide effective and efficient outputs and also increase the Tennants energy bills.. or
New kitchen and bathroom cabinets, most of the ones I've seen and in my apartment are dry rotted and are crumbling and smell,

Take care of your customers and your customers will take care of you....
