Endless maintenance issues

I have lived at the Republic since August 2022 and have had continuous maintenance issues that make's the building a difficult place to live comfortably. During summer heatwaves there were multiple occasions the AC broke and took days to repair. From ~September to December the hot water rarely worked.

The worst part of living here has been the awful insulation in the building and specifically the windows. Even with the windows completely closed you can feel cold air streaming into the...
apartment. It's very difficult to stay warm in the apartment, despite the heat being on and resulting in a procey monthly elextrical bill.

Property Manager at The Republic responded to this review

Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to report that the malfunctioning circulating pump that effected hot water supply last fall has been replaced, and hot water is consistently flowing through the building. The malfunction was caused by a... blackout in this area of Philadelphia, and our receipt and replacement of the part were unfortunately delayed by significant supply chain issues. We acquired The Republic late last summer with the intent of making upgrades to improve your quality of life, and the issues you have mentioned are informing our investment plans for the property through 2023 and beyond.

Used to be great, new management as of Aug 2022 has been abysmal

The building's former management was great, but everything starkly went downhill immediately in August 2022 under new ownership, Sentinel.

Poor (absolutely non-existent) communication with tenants even during emergencies (such as the A/C being out in August with our building reaching internal temps of 90 + degrees), and hiked up utilities rates/fees immediately (was paying about $100/month in utilities, now about $200/months in utilities, effective immediately under new ownership). I know that...
the cost of energy is up across the country, but the immediate and substantial hike is notable, considering that I've been in this building for 3+ years and it had never been quite that bad.

Hi there, we are saddened to hear that you are displeased with our team's efforts. However, due to the anonymity of your review, we think it would be best if we further discussed your concerns directly. Our team looks forward to speaking with you and... giving you the top-notch service you have received over the last 3 years!

DO NOT LIVE HERE

I used to love living here under the old management, however the new management under Sentinel has been absolutely abysmal. If you are considering this apartment, only consider reviews posted after July 2022. We were left stranded during a blackout in late August, and many residents were forced to vacate their apartments during this time due to temperatures in the units exceeding 87 degrees F. We were left with no water and power for a day, and it took a full extra day for the AC to be fixed.... The only communication we had during this time was through one resident's conversation with the building manager over LinkedIn. Whatever you do, don't live here.

Had a rough time finding a place post-Covid. Three other apartments either had sketchy practices or let the apartment I paid to apply for get snatched from under me. Republic’s leasing office got back to me very quickly for a tour of a nice place in a great area for a good price and made getting the apartment very simple.
