I cannot praise Progressive Property Management (PPM) enough! We initially signed a rental…read moreagreement with PPM for a single year but have since renewed twice because we have been so happy with the company. Beth and Peggy are personable and professional and a true joy to work with; it's clear that they care about their tennants and strive hard to meet their needs. Since moving into the property (an older home), several minor issues have arisen (e.g., a toilet leak, a problem with the fridge, a tap leak), and each time, PPM has quickly and efficiently resolved the problem, even when the issue came up late at night. This is in stark contrast to other property management companies that we have rented from in the past, where we were often forced to live with the issue for weeks or even months. We could not be happier with PPM!

Communication related to the apartments is always clear and timely. Any time I have a question, Jessica or Debbie get back to me immediately--usually the same day. Maintenance requests, whether big or small, are handled immediately as well. Joe, Brian, and the others on the maintenance staff are friendly and professional--and stealth! When they are done with a repair there is no trace that they were there except a friendly note explaining what was done. Tim maintains the grounds beautifully. I love my apartment! It is updated, safe, sunny, and quiet. And it's affordable. I never wonder if I made the right choice. This is home!

Good neighborhood, the apartments LOOK good but, you will find some bad things they have!…read more The worst thing if those apartments 2: 1 Management 2 maintenance guy (tall, skinny, glasses that has never worked anywhere else but there) non diligent at all, and is always sitting in the parking garage, talking with the other maintenance guys. We lived there for 2 years, first year was ok, we didn't mind the bad attitude of the maintenance guy, if we asked for something or some maintenance request, his answer was, " send the request to for maintenance" With management we had a situation of charging over for an extra parking space in the garage , but we didn't mind that either, even though it was affecting our credit score because it was showing bus as delinquent for many months. But as I said we didn't mind any of that bcz we liked the neighborhood and the apartment. Continue.. During fall we found very bad mould on the windows and one of the corners of the bed room also on the living room patio door, we cleaned that, then reported to management, their response was for us to clean that and dry the windows constantly do we avoid the situation, we kind of did what they said on fall, winter came and the mould was bigger and the wood was all rotten, management sent the paperwork for the next year contract, my husband told them. We will continue living there but they had to fix the windows situation and the wood. We ended up being threatened by them, stating we will be evicted if during WINTER we don't leave the windows open all day long to stop the mould growing, the maintenance guy was getting in the apartment no notice and arranging my courtains, damaging them as he liked, and when I said something the manager came back to tell me that I'm not letting him work and that I would end up evicted for that. Middle of winter, contract for next year already signed, what could I do? We lived that year and half, counting the days and waiting for the great moment if leaving that people If after this you decide to move there,,, is in you BTW that mould situation lasted for more than a month, they threatened us, after a couple of weeks we called the city and miraculously the maintenance guy had the time to fix the wood, at least, the mould problem will continue there, those windows are cheap and bad!

Snow removal is included but they do an extremely poor job. When my wife called to inquire when it would be done, they said over 24hrs from the stop of snowfall and then hung up on her. We recently had a neighbor complain that our sidewalk is consistently hazardous and also our mail carrier is threatening to no longer deliver our mail until we remove the snow around it. We have lived at our townhouse for 2 years now and still have not had the metal construction spikes from our garage removed, despite our 2 requests.

Unfortunately, it is time for another withering review of a deserving vendor: **Steve Brown…read moreApartments**, specifically their **Laurel Commons** property. My daughter and her roommates made what we now know was a serious mistake when they signed a lease there last summer. Within days of moving in, they noticed black spores around the air vents. At my urging, they checked the HVAC filter. It, too, was caked with what appeared to be mold. Management's response? **Clean and repaint the vents.** They insisted the problem was simply dirty vents. Guess what promptly reappeared? You guessed it: mold. The kids were so concerned about circulating spores throughout the apartment that they went without air conditioning during an **August heat wave**. And still, it took nearly a month of pushing management before they finally sent out an HVAC inspection/remediation company. And guess what they found? **Ductwork filled with black mold.** That's right. While management was busy painting over the visible evidence and dismissing the problem as "dirty vents," these kids were living in an apartment whose HVAC system was circulating air through mold-contaminated ductwork. I understand this is college. I understand that off-campus student housing is not exactly the Four Seasons. But **mold-filled HVAC ducts are not a charming bit of college-apartment sketchiness. They are unacceptable.** I could go on about the plumbing problems. The appliances in various states of disrepair. The absurd parking situation, for which residents were charged exorbitant rates despite there barely being enough room to accommodate the cars. Or the fact that my daughter had to walk through a dark alley to reach the parking garage. But frankly, the mold earns **Laurel Commons, managed by Steve Brown Apartments,** the lowest rating I can give. **AVOID this dunghole at all costs.** If you're a parent considering putting your son or daughter in Laurel Commons, look elsewhere.
