Unless you are in desperate need of housing, DO NOT arrange it with Baldwin and Hawthorne on Kuntz road. They are scam artists who prey on naive students. I am currently stuck living in Mill Glen apartments across Granada. It is step up from Granada with "better" upholsteries; however, not by much, and with that compliment I'll begin my tirade.
So, I drove 6.5 hrs to Erie and wanted to change the term of the lease that I had not signed. The lady, Ann beth Baldwin, esq., seemed very nice on the phone, but when I got to their office their story changed. I have talked to them on the phone about changes to the lease, and they seemed to agree, but when I actually pulled up to their office she pulled a fast one. Baldwin pretty much told me "take the lease as I have typed it up, or leave your 480 dollar deposit." She told me that as a lawyer, the application that I have filled out and signed with the deposit is nonrefundable if I didn't sign the lease.
I should have got up and left the 480, but I desperately needed a place to stay b/c the school starts the next day. So, I signed my year away here in this dump.
Yes, I should have read the fine print on the 'binding application with deposit', and yes i should have move up to erie more than a day before. I admit my mistakes, but I feel like I got swindled to live in a place. Not a great way of doing business by Baldwin and Hawthorne Real Estate in the long term if you ask me.
So if you ask me, DO NOT LIVE IN MILL GLEN APARTMENT IN ERIE PA managed by Baldwin and Hawthorne.
Oh, I ran into a classmate from LECOM who was informed by a cop to move out of this neighborhood ASAP, which he did. smart kid.
