    This is how they treated us.  Good riddance to bad rubish
    Sarah C.

    DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! Our condo board replaced our long term management company due to their becoming lazy with regards to management of our building. After interviewing several companies we chose Gassen. Mostly due to their Gassen University, which promised that we would have highly trained, responsive, desk attendants in our 24/7 staffed office. Not only did they not train the people they hired, I don't think they even checked to see if they had basic reading/writing/communication skills. There was a constant revolving door of bad to worse employees and our 24/7 staffing model turned into the office being closed more than it was open. Our Community Manager, Kayleigh Kotosky started out being a breath of fresh air, then her breath turned foul and she complained about anything and everything until she got a promotion and a raise out of the deal and even moved off site. A couple of our Board members tend to be a little bit too involved and that goes against Gassen's management model. However, not only did Kayleigh constantly ask for help and advice, she then complained she couldn't get anything done. They never did earn our trust, they couldn't even manage to process our deliveries correctly and swore they had policies and procedures in place when they didn't. I would have just let them ride off into the sunset to terrorize another unsuspecting community but the last straw was when they pulled down their "Managed by Gassen" sign off of our entry wall and took half of the paint/stucco with it!

    Siding torn off, water, moisture, mold entering house, etc.

    Worst Company I've ever been forced to work with. Even their own board members can't get along with each other. The only reason they got a 1 Star rating is because it's not possible to give them a ZERO! I've had major damage to my property and have waited over 3 months for them to fix it, but all I get is the run around. I've had plastic trash bags taped to the side of my house for 3 months throughout all the rainstorms. If you want to reach a Board Member, you have to wait 1 month just to talk to them (the last Mon of the month), then download a Zoom app and explain the situation online only to get lied to over and over again. They really truly don't care, just make sure to keep sending your dues! I've got way more to add, just not enough space! Worst customer experience I've ever had and would never recommend!

    Love that step up into basement walkout

In addition, he communicated with the condo association and provided all required documents for set up the HOA payments on time. Moreover, he suggested to do the Mobile closing ( the notary came to my home for signing the closing paper in the closing date) which saved my time and $$$ money because I did not need to fly to Minnesota just for the closing. Mr.Mark Gettinger has provided an outstanding customer service. He commutated with my Closing company and Lender directly when I needed the information's clarification ( especially, the specific legal terminology). Furthermore, all the paper work and earning money sending were done electronically-it was so easy and accurate as well as saving a lot of my time and energy in this busy life. In Sum, the closing was done on time, and my Lender told me that they were impressed how Mr. Mark Gettinger was able to manage very professionally the condo purchase ( which is required more knowledge and documentation than purchasing a single home) and also for a Buyer who is living in the different state.

Idk if she felt intimidated by my husband and I having arm forces background, or because we said we were conservative. She pushed us to give her documents to approve us and once she received everything she pulled the rug out from under us. We all have a past and we were very upfront and honest with her before we tour about debt that was payed off years ago. Yet it felt like this was used against us, which is unfair and unprofessional. I would not recommend for families. We were excited and went above and beyond to make this work & she dragged us through the mud not caring about how chaotic she was coming across. We even sent her a screenshot proving that we would be able to move in with the time she wanted residents to occupied the house in Waconia and I guess it wasn't enough.. truly blindsided.

Aaroosh is sometimes hard to reach by phone, emails and texts work a lot better but if you are not used to that kind of communication it might be tough. They are not a huge company which is nice because I have a direct contact but sometimes if they are busy it might take 24-48 hours for a response.

I was being rejected from all of them because I didn't have a 730 credit score due to some student loans and medical bills.

I told him "yes!I was", but I told him my credit is a work in progress and not high...

Not only did they meet our requirements, but they had the systems and people in place to deliver first-rate service. A big factor in our decision to go with Sharper Management was Steven Smith. Steven had been our property manager when he was with a previous company that we had used. Our experience with him was so positive that teaming with Steven again at Sharper was icing on the cake. We know what that property management can be a difficult and sometimes thankless job, but Steven is easily accessible, responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. We rely on him for advice and guidance to help us manage our Association, develop realistic budgets and reserves, and communicate with owners as needed. We know that you can't please everyone, but Steven has done right by us. If you are looking for a new property management company, you should talk to Steven Smith and Sharper Management.

    My experience with Sharper Management has left me deeply concerned about transparency,…read moreaccountability, and how our association's money has been managed. During my time serving on our 32-home association's Board, I began asking questions about a roughly $300,000 loan taken out during a previous Board's tenure. I was not on the Board when the loan was approved, so I cannot claim to know everything that happened at the time. What I do know is that I have repeatedly asked for documentation showing where that money went--including information concerning the projects, contractors, expenditures, approvals, and work that was performed. Despite asking multiple times, I have not been provided with the documentation I have requested. That is extremely concerning to me. When homeowners collectively take on approximately $300,000 in debt, there should be a clear paper trail showing how those funds were spent and what the association received in return. Homeowners should not have to repeatedly ask for basic financial and project information concerning hundreds of thousands of dollars. The situation is even more troubling because there have been significant concerns about the quality of work performed during that period. Without the underlying records, homeowners have no meaningful way to evaluate whether the money was spent appropriately or whether the work and costs were properly overseen. My more recent experiences with Sharper Management have only increased my concerns. I have dealt with former manager Miguel, current manager Janelle, and Client Care representative Josh, and I have repeatedly found myself having to push for answers regarding contractors, maintenance, budgets, insurance, tree work, the shared driveway, and other significant expenses. I believe an HOA management company should provide strong oversight and help protect homeowners' investments. It should encourage Board members to ask questions, scrutinize contractor recommendations, demand documentation, and make sure homeowners' money is being spent responsibly. Instead, my experience has been that legitimate questions can be met with resistance, incomplete answers, or simply no satisfactory answer at all. I cannot say what happened to every dollar of the $300,000 because Sharper has not provided me with the documentation I have repeatedly requested. I also cannot speculate about the motivations of previous Board members or make accusations about anyone being paid to remain silent without evidence. But I can say this: After repeatedly asking for documentation concerning a $300,000 association loan and not receiving it, I have serious concerns about the level of transparency and accountability provided to our community. Homeowners deserve to know where their money went. I would strongly encourage any HOA considering Sharper Management to ask very specific questions about financial records, project documentation, contractor selection, competitive bidding, project oversight, and how the company responds when Board members demand answers. This review represents my personal experience and opinions and is not intended to represent the official position of our association or its Board.
