I am always pleased with the final product. Thomas property Management has also done home maintenance for me on a regular basis-painting my deck, adding a maintenance free divider, cleaning lint from the dryer, painting inside and on my deck, installing Led light fixtures etc. Several years ago the business put in hardwood floors throughout my unit. I asked for a recommendation for the wood. It is absolutely beautiful. The floor brightens the room like forsythia on a dull spring day. It is truly amazing and keeps me smiling. Everything Thomas Property does is quality. Work is done in a timely manner. I certainly recommend this company.

When maintenance needs to be done it can take up to two to three months for it to happen. When I moved into my apartment there was a hole in the floor of my bathroom, no smoke detector, and the apartment wasn't cleaned when I moved in, yet I still had to pay for a cleaning deposit. The other tenants of this apartment building are also crooks and thieves. I have had my GPS stolen from my car, and most recently packages stolen from my door step. These acts of theft are not uncommon here either, and are almost common place. If you have any interest in renting in Montpelier, stay away from this place completely. I would recommend looking at craigslist or trying to find a private owner that you may rent from.

I guess my expectations shouldn't have dared stray so high. I filled out a contact request form on thier website about 3+ weeks ago inquiring about an apartment that is (to this day) still listed as available on their website. I got no call or email. I emailed last week about a house for rent that was on their website and got an email reply that said EXACTLY THIS: "I believe the house has been rented and is no longer available but can call us to see any other listings we might have 802-223-8965 thank you" Using ABSOLUTLY NO PROPER GRAMMAR OR PUNCTUATION is the opposite of professional. I am brushing aside the fact the whoever answered me (as you can see, there is no greeting or salutation to this email) is not even sure if the rental property was still available or not. I will certainly not be wasting any more time attempting to do business with them.

Longer version: a couple of months ago, I wanted to buy a painting that a local Montpelier business had on their wall; they weren't sure how to handle the payment at the time, but after I got home (to Boston) they told me by email that I could send them a check and they'd hold the painting until I was next in Montpelier. I sent them the check, they cashed it - and then about a week later they went out of business! I only learned about this when I tried to call them about picking up the painting. I figured the painting was probably lost, but I managed to get the name of the business' property management company (i.e. Stone & Browning) from the Internet, and called them, in the hope that perhaps they could figure out where the painting had gone. The person who picked up was very sympathetic and put me through to Nick. On a Friday afternoon, Nick took time out of his day to track down the painting, and then he came in on a Saturday morning (outside his usual working hours) to hand it over to me, because I was heading back to Boston on the Sunday afternoon. So I can't speak to their property management skills from the perspective of a landlord or renter, but my experience in summer 2024 was that it was really easy to get in touch with them (even with a situation that was definitely non-standard), and they were extremely responsive and helpful, especially Nick.

Apt 1 99Elm street barre Vermont Zach tried to hold us against our will with trying to make us pay rent until they were able to rent it to someone else. But we had to suck his ass. I moved into this apartment owned by Stoning Browning on November 14, 2025, and honestly the place from day one was already raising major red flags. This building is not safe for kids or pets at all, it was built in 1901 and it definitely shouldn't be advertised like it is. There was visible mold all over, and the paint is old and falling apart which is really concerning, especially knowing there could be lead paint in a building where families live. I put in multiple maintenance requests and notes pretty much right after moving in, but most of the serious issues were either ignored or barely addressed. I paid for a three-bedroom apartment but the third bedroom was completely unusable. It wasn't just "not great" it felt highly unsafe and unhealthy. The walls would leak so much cold air, the air quality was awful, and there was no way that room could be used as an actual bedroom. Paying for three bedrooms and only being able to safely use two is ridiculous. No one should have to worry about mold lead paint or unsafe living conditions in their own home. This isn't about cosmetic stuff it's about basic health and safety. I would seriously warn anyone with children or pets to think twice before moving here. Management really needs to take responsibility for the condition of this building. The heat bill was $750 a month until I unplugged the gas heaters and ended up buying electric portable heaters. I even tested the apartment for lead paint and the main owner of stoning browning said I was a LIAR!! THIS APARTMENT IS A NIGHTMARE IN THE WINTER!! I cannot imagine the brutal summers. We have since then been moved out but owe suburban propane $3,000 in gas bills because of the leaks in this building. Zach Napolitano is an absolute joke. He accused me of recording him in my own apartment and later banned me from the property for showing up with wrongful issues in the apartment I was living in.

That was when they stopped communicating, responding to emails, phone calls, or text messages.
