Avalon Boonton Apartments

I moved here with my family hoping for a positive experience but what Avalon has proved over and over again is that they ONLY care about sucking out every little dime from your pocket and that is basically it. They smile to you before you sign the lease but from when the signature hits that paper get ready for them to not care about YOU and only about the money you can give to them. They market themselves to be "luxury" living but they provide the cheapest countertops, walls, appliances, that... break every day. They issues with bugs and mites. There are cars being stolen from the garage and they refuse to install cameras anywhere because they are that fixated on not spending an extra dime on anything. They charge you an amenity fee but then refuse to provide those amenities and refuse to refund you.. the list goes on and on.. if you want to save yourself some heartache do not move here. Read More

The place looks nice, but everything inside the actual apartment is cheap, like cabinets appliances and countertops (Walmart quality).
Pool is closed in the summers.
They make you a “deal” when you sign the lease for a shorter term (10 months). At the end of the lease they raise your rent over 10 percent. Since it has not been even a year, the residents are hesitant to move again and forced to pay additional increases.
Avoid the place at all costs.

Don't rent here.. They claim "Luxury Living"... nothing could be further from the truth.. the only thing luxury here is the price.. With an astronomical 24% increase on our renewals this is a joke. Pool not opened, because they claim no lifeguards are available to hire meanwhile all complexes around have lifeguards. Smoke free development is also false. Marijuana smoke fills the hallways and cigarette butts can be seen all over the complex grounds. Even though w have to supply a DNA swab for... every dog here there is poop all over the grounds, cause some tenants do not picking up after their dogs, yet there is no enforcement by management. The parking garage is a complete free for all. We pay extra for a reserved spot yet tenants will park in my spot and yet again no enforcement or help from management.. Some tenants parking in fire lanes is a nightly occurrence...trash rooms filled w trash.. your on your own here.. Renter beware... Read More

Once you sign a lease expect a 25-30% rent hike to renew. There is no rent control and they don't take care of the grounds or Amenities. Pool access is limited since they are too cheap to pay their life guards a fair salary. The gym is horrible with broken machines that they take forever to fix. Supposed to be nonsmoking but you can get a contact high walking down the halls.

They claim luxury living lol it couldn’t be further from the truth. We lived here for a few years since it opened and it has been going downhill every year. They have raised our rent 24% this year!

1- the pool is useless, cause Avalon seems to be the only complex that can’t find a lifeguard to hire……..so it’s closed.

2-Tenants not picking up their Dog’s Poop, all over the grounds… & management refuses to enforce the DNA samples that they require every dog owner to hand into the office.

3-... Parking garage is an absolute ‘free far all’…..We pay extra for a reserved spot and tenants park in our spot often…..once again no enforcement by management.

4- People park their cars in fire lanes, visitors parking and next to fire hydrants… again no enforcement by management.

5- Trash room piles up w trash on the floor…tenants not simply putting it down the incinerator.. again no consequences for these actions by management.

6- “Smoke free Complex” .. that is an absolute joke. The hallways reek of Marijuana all the time.. & cigarette ?? butts are all over the complex.

The lists go on….With an astronomical 24% rent increase in one year; this place is not worth it and is no where near Luxury Living… that’s false advertising. Trust us.. Read More
