The Hawthorne

So far the living experience has been incredible! Violet has been the best manager I have ever had…and this is my 34th move in Portland. I was not having luck with renting around town per a low credit score, and this management company, as well as Violet's hard work and dedication got me housed within a week of inquiring. The team is fantastic. Very quick to respond to any questions, concerns and quick to fix any and everything upon request. Violet has also made me feel extremely welcome, she is inclusive and has a great spirit. I truly appreciate y’all!

Management is incompetent and nearly non-existent. Don't move here if you can avoid it. There are a lot of better options in the area. Edit: proving my point, my bathroom is also currently on hour twelve of flooding and I have gotten absolutely no response from the management here. So if you're in an emergency and your safety is in danger because of these apartments, just know that the management does not care and will not do anything to help you even when they are legally required.

Well this was the best experience I have had with any apartment it’s so beautiful in here and my leasing agent is literally the most kind and best ever Vilolette helped me get into this apt and was very helpful throughout the moving process we couldn’t ask for. A nice place in the spot we always wanted.

The building is rather nice and has a good vibe to it. I have spent a lot of time walking around the Hawthorne area and enjoy the neighborhood. The management though is probably the most inept I have ever encountered. I moved in without a mail key and had to pay out of pocket to have a locksmith install a new mail key a month+ into my tenancy. Still have yet to be communicated by property management about being reimbursed. I have ongoing maintenance issues that have not been handled for two plus months... As well as the lack of proper accounting where my parking was double charged and not promptly taken out. I would stay away from any properties that are associated with Wonder Dog Management. As they do not care about doing their jobs nor the right thing out of principle.

We were looking for a good clean building, not too big, in a very walkable area for our oldest. A good responsive team running the building would be a major plus. After looking at several places in SE/NE neighborhoods, we chose The Hawthorne last month. Violot and Scott were very accomodating during the entire process and very quick to respond to our needs (thanks for letting us use your dolly!). Seems like it's a new team running the place and I have to say they have been on the ball so far!

I am currently renting a unit at the Hawthorne, and the management is incredibly inept. They neglect to service the properties, resulting in unclean conditions and hallways that smell like animal urine. It's embarrassing to see such a blatant prioritization of profit over people. They seem content to make money without putting in any effort. It's disheartening that companies like this are permitted to operate in Oregon, failing to maintain their properties or respond to calls. It's truly unfortunate that such businesses still exist.

Needed a good apartment, quick, fast and in a hurry... Scott and Violet were so responsive and got me into my sweet pad. Thanks guys! Anyhoo, this is a great location and SE Portland has always been a place to call home. Plenty of culture and nature! All the best! :D

My partner, cat and I moved into The Hawthorne PDX about a month ago. Within a day or so of applying, we heard back! The application process was swift and easy - Kylie was incredibly helpful and responsive to all questions we had before moving in. There was a 6 week special that was offered for signing a lease (as well as a $99 security deposit) and all credits have been applied to our rent so far! The unit is incredibly nice -- this is our first time having in unit washer/dryer and a dishwasher (which we're very happy about)! For being a one bedroom (alcove), the unit is quite spacious. The location is great and we're within walking distance to many of our favorite restaurants! Considering the street this complex is on, it's surprisingly quiet at night! We feel very fortunate to have found a place during these times and we're very happy living here so far!
