    I recently met with Katie Mandell, a property manager with Maple Leaf, to view a townhome in…read moreSeattle. She was responsive and accommodating while scheduling the viewing. When we toured the unit, she was very knowledgeable about the property and its history, and answered all my questions regarding the rental terms and application process. Katie was extremely kind, personable, and professional, and gave me the strong sense that she and the company she represents are trustworthy and sincere. The townhome was great, but unfortunately, another applicant applied for the unit the night before we met, so the timing didn't work out. After we toured the property, Katie was kind enough to show me another home nearby, and went above and beyond, by searching for other properties in the area managed by Maple Leaf. I decided to not move at this time, but am grateful for all of Katie's help and hope to work with her and Maple Leaf Property Management in the future.

    Horrible experience! ZERO stars. I would never rent with them again. Maple Leaf is the property…read moremanagement equivalent of predatory house flippers. When I moved in I told them there was a hole in the outside wall, near the kitchen window. For the next 1.5 years I told them and they had their own inspectors take pictures of it. Despite this, they only made a move to fix it once I reported them to the city. The whole time I lived there I was told that all of my things molding was my fault (including 2 beds!). I was told to leave my cupboard doors and drawers open to prevent mildew in the kitchen. The dehumidifier I requested would fill up at the end of each day. When they finally opened the wall to fix the hole, there was black/wet insulation and they had to replace half of the kitchen's 2x4's, and the workers found another hole with earth worms living in the kitchen under the dishwasher. Despite having 5 different workers out to deal with the hole and earth worms, this was never fixed by the time I moved out. And then, 2 weeks before I moved out there was water dripping out of the bathroom ceiling fan. They opened it up to find a leak that had to be going on for at least a year because the insulation was again black and the wood was moldy. They did not fix this before I moved out. I just had to live with a hole in the ceiling above the shower... Then they illegally withheld $750 from my deposit. They didn't follow the law by detailing the reasons for withholding this amount. They simply printed out a screenshot of text messages with their handyman giving an estimate on two projects. Thankfully I was able to recover the deposit since they do not know the law or how to do their jobs. There is so much more, but this should suffice as a warning. Lastly, their own employees bad mouth each other. Highly unprofessional and shows the do not even follow basic respect standards. Disgusting, gaslighting, lying, and incompetent company. Steer clear!

I have been working with them for over a year and I couldn't be more happy with their services. Here are just few callouts from my experiences: They are your one stop solution for any needs including finding the perfect rental properties (Eva is a licensed real estate agent), furnishing the house, and handling daily airbnb operations. They are great with interior design and will make your properties aesthetically stand out among all other listings on airbnb. They are super on top of everything, extremely responsive, considerate, knowledgeable and responsible. They're always just one text msg or phone call away. When things need to be addressed or fixed in my property, they will provide different solutions and prompt fix; and their quote is always reasonable and transparent. With my STR property, they handle all the communications and daily operations, and provide me with a monthly statement. They closely monitor and constantly adjust all of their listings to make sure both occupancy rate and price are at optimization. With their hard work and dedication, my STR property is generating positive cash flow and it is one of my best investments. Eva and Sid are a smart and diligent couple, who will happily share their knowledge and expertise to help their clients to succeed.

This building blatantly broke the law--they are guilty of fraud, and I have the proof to back it up. After I moved out, they tried to steal my $600 security deposit, fabricating bogus charges for "unit cleaning" and "paint/wall repair" (see their letter and bill below). This isn't just shady--it's straight-up illegal. Specifically, this directly violates RCW Title 59, Chapter 59.18, Section 69.18.257, Paragraph 4 (photo of the law attached). Fortunately for me (and unfortunately for them), I have photo evidence proving the condition of the apartment when I left (see attached). I am now suing them for double what they stole from me. Wish me luck by leaving a like! DO NOT do business with these people. They will scam you, and now you've been warned. P.S. Parking is an absolute nightmare 90% of the time.

I'm talking MONTHS to replace broken appliances (stove, fridge, washer and dryer). They don't maintain the buildings at all. (WE COME EVERY TWO WEEKS!) All lies! Someone has come once in 6 months (with a broom to clean carpet nonetheless). The dryer vent tubes are never cleaned, full of lint, was told they never clean those! (just asking for a fire in this old decrepit building). It took 2 1/2 years to get the call box updated and a key given to USPS. Like for real?! Everyone had to go to USPS Office everyday to get packages (Amazon, etc). Our building is falling apart and yet they raise the rent EVERY DAMN YEAR! Then people move out and get to witness the same apartment in the building is being rented for $355 less?! Are you kidding me?! Kerra Lampman is just as incompetent as Shannon Hilliard was. No wonder we've gotten multiple lawsuit settlement checks because this company continues to break the laws and they will continue to. Can't wait to leave! Make sure you hire a lawyer, document all the maintenance issues, texts/phone call recordings for your records. They will lie and tell you on the phone one thing and complete screw you over the moment they can. SLUMLORDS! -1 stars! (Oh and just an fyi, all these POSITIVE reviews are because we were sent a notice that they were giving out gift cards for 5 star reviews). Only to find out the gift cards are for the employees lol. Deleted that positive review asap. What a PATHETIC way to attempt to BUY reviews!)

    I started working with AvenueOne for the last two years, initially with one house, and now I have a…read moresecond one managed by them. Before choosing AvenueOne, I had conversations with 3-4 other companies and asked similar questions to calibrate my expectations and have a comparative view of options. AvenueOne emerged as the winner for me, and specifically, Julie was influential in my decision. She is a great person to work with, reasonable, timely in her communications, and quite experienced in this field. Secondly, Monique was responsible for handling tenant screening and lease management, etc. Brianna is the person actually handling day-to-day operations as my property manager. She is a gem, if you can believe it. She is really understanding and hardworking. Anytime I had something on my mind, dropping a message or email, she was there for me. Lastly, I also had online conversations (via email) with Kathy for portal-related and payment-related questions. Overall, I am highly satisfied with the AvenueOne experience over the last two years. Here are some points I want to highlight about AvenueOne: Responsiveness: The company's response times to maintenance requests and inquiries are generally quite satisfactory. They make an effort to address concerns within a reasonable timeframe, which is appreciated on my end. And this is not only for me as a landlord but also from the tenant's point of view; I can see the same level of responsiveness. Communication Quality: The folks at AvenueOne maintain decent communication with both tenants and landlords through regular updates and reminders. For instance, I receive updates about quarterly audits at the house, along with a detailed report with pictures showing potential issues. Overall, I was mostly happy with the quality of communication. Maintenance and Repairs: For cases where a tenant raises a ticket, AvenueOne has been on top of those tickets and confirms with the tenant. I was also notified about raised issues, and for urgent matters, they immediately jumped on the solution. For others, generally, I was pulled in and asked for approval. I've had mostly positive experiences with the company's maintenance and repair team. I also had a case where the tenant was a bit unreasonable, but to be fair, Brianna, my property manager, did a great job reflecting my opinion and setting reasonable expectations with the tenant, effectively balancing the needs of the tenants with the long-term financial health of the landlord. Property Upkeep: My understanding is that the properties managed by this company are usually well-maintained. They send periodic audit reports about the health of the property, with varying levels of urgency, e.g., things to keep in mind for future maintenance vs. more urgent fixes needed. Each item in the audit report is generally accompanied by pictures. Rent Collection: The rent collection process is generally convenient, mostly automated for the landlord. Each month, you also get a report on the breakdown of costs, if any. Tenant Screening: The company's tenant screening process appears to be decent, which helps maintain a sense of security and community among residents. Their attention to this aspect is appreciated. Lease Management: So far, I have only had the experience of lease renewal and not termination or move-outs yet. But overall, it was thoroughly documented, and it was an easy process, all done via DocuSign. Online Portal or App: The company's online portal and mobile app are convenient tools that simplify various processes. I appreciate the portal a lot. Value for Money: Considering the services provided, the management fees charged by the company are reasonable. Overall Satisfaction: Overall, I've had a great experience with AvenueOne. The company is run by great people, all doing their best to reflect the landlord's best interest while being sensitive to tenant needs as well.

    I rented from Avenue One (AO for length) for two years and I cannot recommend them to renters who…read moreare looking for consistency or dependability in their landlord. The first clue was in month four after we reached out to our property manager about cutting the 6x6(ish) front yard. We requested AO to amend the first draft of their proposed lease agreement to exclude the yard as a tenant responsibility - they agreed and the lease we signed included no tenant responsibility for the front yard. When they finally hired someone, the third-party company blew a rock that shattered our glass door. Given the glass covered the entire door, it was an extreme safety and security hazard. We shared with AO that someone could easily kick it in and that it could also easily break w/ daily use. They came out quickly to assess and scheduled a third party shortly after. We then made time out of our professional schedules 5 times to get evaluations which AO insisted upon even after given guidance to replace by 2 separate contractors. It took us emailing the owners of AO directly to have them schedule one final evaluation, which ultimately suggested replacement anyway. It took TWO MONTHS to replace our front door, and only after requesting and negotiating were we offered compensation. The front lawn was not mowed again for the last 18+ months of our lease. This was a pattern. AO hired third parties that weren't consistent in communication or performance. Other maintenance requests were put off and ignored. In the case of a separate upstairs bathroom issue, the hired team broke an item in a bedroom and left $20 to help replace it. We received a new property manager after the door incident, and while certainly better than the first, the communication felt clumsy, incorrect, and in need of prompting rather than being proactive. I expect more from a company that chooses to rent to people, as it should be predictable and dependable in exchange for the monthly rent - and we were tenants that paid rent on time, every time. We gave 50+ days of notice before vacating. A new employee from AO who showed properties sent an email at 1pm on Friday to begin the process to list our apartment but mentioned no timeline. Less than 4 hours later, we received a curt email alerting us that an ad "was live" and that they had "3 people waiting to see when they can tour" on Monday afternoon (less than 24 business hrs). After calling and sharing our circumstances, they emailed it was within their rights to show our home w/o consent with 24 hrs notice. My roommate negotiated a few days to return from travel and to secure our valuables. Our caution only came as a result of several encounters where the AO team and their third-party contractors broke things in our house. The request we received to show our home and the striking urgency that AO created is a pattern that shows they do not respect tenants. Pressuring us to respond to them showing the apartment over a month before our lease ends with 4 hours in between emails is not reasonable. It is particularly unreasonable given we had provided our notice to vacate over 2 full weeks before that email exchange (nearly 2 full months before our two-year lease ended). This urgency to move rapidly had never once been AO's approach to maintenance for any concern we had. When the agent ultimately showed our home, they sprayed heavily scented perfumes (they admitted to this later) in our purposefully unscented home, resulting in significant allergies that caused a night of headaches. When it came to the walkthrough, we had to basically beg to be there. The timing of the walkthrough was shifted on the night before the appointment. In an email before the walkthrough, they mentioned extra charges if our unit wasn't in the same condition it was upon move-in. However, we confronted them with language from the Seattle Renters Handbook that if cleaning fees are charged as a fee before move-in, you cannot be charged for cleaning after moving out. They requested we sweep the rooftop deck that was rotting and decaying - yet another ignored maintenance request that they received months before they knew we planned to move out. We did get the full deposit back, but I have to chalk that up to our clean nature and our unrelenting focus on over-communicating and keeping written records. This level of vigilance felt exhausting, but something we had to keep up with AO because they never seemed to have our best interests in mind. Ultimately, I could not in good conscience recommend this company to any renter. AO showed time and time again what they thought of us by providing absolutely minimal service and little respect to us as renters. If you do rent from them, start keeping written records and don't hesitate to contact the Seattle Tenants Union for guidance. The only striking positive was the initial real estate agent, Barb Bender, who was incredible. She showed care, created clarity, and sold us on AO.
