Had issues since I moved to their apartments. Buildings are not cared for. Water leaks are everywhere. No safety in the buildings and cameras/ smoke alarm's don't work. Contacted management and tell to contact the next hoop and it never ends. Most managers stay 3-4 months but the issues stay forever. I would not recommend anyone getting into these units. Rent is cheap and the reason is the never ending issues. While visiting their offices for reoccurring issues I noticed that everyone in these buildings is going through same issues. Water issues are common and someone told me that he has been waiting for a year to get a fix. Another resident informed that they want to move as the building got bed bugs and she had a toddler with bug bites all over. Living conditions in almost every mainstreet building is horrible. One of the managers told me to not contact them for issues as they are really busy. So I contacted the rental board instead. I was shocked to see that there is no responsible contact in the whole company. Managers have no experience and enter your unit without notice and never do the safety repairs and maintenance. I had a lesson for life. Hopefully this review would help someone in the future. I can't even count the number of issues I experienced in these buildings. I was new to the city and got it booked online. A work friend laughed at me because these apartments are known for being the worst in country. I don't have any words to describe this. 'Horrible' would be too good of a word to describe.

Tip for consumers:
Stay away from any Mainstreet building. Their offices are filled with people having constant issues. Buildings got bugs, constant water leaks, units and mailboxes getting broken into. Cameras are probably not working as when you ask management for security footage, you never get a reply. Manager advised me to not come to their office as they are very busy. He recommended me to pay 2 months rent or pay them more to move to another unit as the whole apartment ceiling was leaking from everywhere.
