Our back door would not latch correctly and we had asked since 2019 to have it replaced and George refused. It was a literal safety hazard since the door would not close. The roof is leaking at the property and instead of fixing it he would just have dumb and dumber(his "contractors" who were clearly always coked out) come and clean up the water. The place is FULL of black mold.... And when I say full, I mean it was growing down the walls, out of sockets, it was awful. They just paint over it with "mold resistant" paint in each apartment and call that ok. George is a bully who will hold leases over your head unless you pay ridiculous and made up fees. Our apartment building caught on fire from not having proper wiring and when George finally decided to show up he was pissed off that someone called the fire department because now he was being held responsible to fix it by the town. Code enforcement came and shut our building down for an entire week. Our refrigerator broke and he promised us a new one and even told us he ordered it but then dodged us anytime we asked about the status on it. He does not have proper smoke detectors. His guys will not come and plow the parking lot even though it's in the lease. The people he does hire are incredibly sketchy and he does not give proper notice so you could be home alone with your kids in the shower and these people are just entering your place with no warning. He raises the rent each year and charges ridiculous amounts for these places that are cesspools. He allows someone to live in the building who is mentally unstable with a bunch of guns who has threatened multiple tenants in the building but he didn't care because that apartment paid the most in rent. The hot water only would work from time to time so we would have to go shower and bathe our children at family's house. George is also incredibly sexist. He often acts like he just cannot discuss things with the women in the building. We constantly had to run electric heaters because none of the baseboards worked so we would freeze in the winter if we relied on his "free heat." I could go on and on and on. Long story short, while the price may be comparable in today's economy, I promise you, it is not worth it. Getting out of there was the best thing we have ever done.

I toured 11 Fremont street today 10/19/2025 in Gloversville…read more I am not from the area but I'm aware and of it. Some major red flags I noticed. 975.00 is too much when the first thing you notice is the community room and it was filthy. Giant cobwebs, house centipedes and rat droppings in the community kitchen. Everything in that place is drab with horrible lighting. The carpets are filthy, walking down the hallway there are carpet stains everywhere. The exercise room stunk which means there is no ventilation, in the laundry rooms the room was hot enough my glasses steamed upon entering. The maintenance person doesn't live on site? They are 20 minutes away? But Megan didn't seem to know who they were. She also mentioned first, last and security, NYS does not allow landlords to ask for that. Additionally if you submit a background check and it is within the month you do not have to pay for a new one and the most a resident can be charged is 20.00. App folio does not allow someone to skip payment, and based off the interaction I had today?? I would not trust getting my money back. However due to the cleanliness of the building and the infestation you're overpriced. It is a shame because it has potential but no effort has been taken. You own other properties, and these are run down and a disgusting color to potentially hide mold and other gross things. 725.00 should be the max. Please make sure that the infestation is taken care of for future residents, and a maintenance person is living on property and the cleaning crew gets those massive orb spider webs. I was really excited for this to be a potential home but I will not be finishing my application.

He led me on to schedule an estimate, confirmed the appointment the day before, then blatantly lied about showing up. He continuously strung me along with fake arrival times, never actually in transit. At 1:30, he said he was 10 minutes away; at 2:30, he was suddenly "5 minutes out"--only after I called from a different number. He dodged my calls completely. If he can't even show up for an estimate, imagine trusting him with actual work. Avoid at all costs.

He then said he would be there in 5 minutes. 20 minutes went by and we both called him again which he didn't respond to so we called from a different number (my business number) sense he apparently will answer your calls if he doesn't know your number to dodge them. Overall he said he was 10 minutes out 30 minutes after he was supposed to be there then 5 minutes out after he was an hour late and then no response from him after he was an hour and a half late. Drove over an hour to meet with him just for him to waste my time.

Specifically for the Middle St unit in Ballston Spa NY:…read more The people at the rental company seemed to really want to help with ongoing issues in the home (especially the maintenance people, they were awesome), but I got the impression that the actual owner of the home didn't want to pay for the below issues to be solved. I lived here from 2025 to 2026, and below were the ongoing issues that caused me to leave: - Black mold and leaky roof in the unit downstairs. Finally showed up in late January 2026 after submitting a request in August 2025 for the mold, only to be told they cannot fix the mold until the roof stops leaking, roof still has not been fixed as of May 2026. Roofing specialist were sent out multiple times but the issue persisted. Got the recommendation from another roofing company to replace the roof, not sure if this is the owner not wanting to pay for a new roof or the roofing company that was sent not doing a great job. - Tree specialist that was working at the neighbor's house recommended to cut down the dying/dead tree in the backyard in Fall 2025 as it was at risk of falling directly on the house, nothing was done to address this. March 14th 2026 the tree fell on the house. Because it was a weekend, we could not get in contact with anyone at Veno and had to call the fire department. After the tree fell on the house, the bathroom ceiling started to leak. Maintenance request was submitted for the leak on 3/24, as of May 2026 leak was not fixed and small spot now turned into a 52 inch leaking crack in the ceiling. - Large holes in the basement foundation, leading to an ongoing rodent problem. I'm unsure the extent to which these issues are actually a result of the management company vs the owner of the house.

My lease wasn't terminated, but you did…read moreprovide me with a "Demand to Vacate" after I wouldn't sign your ridiculous "month to Month" exhausting lease, after I already lived in the apartment for 5 years. Sending me a daily "sign the lease" into my email without providing the lease for me to read. The repeated harassment was from your company, including hanging this "Demand to Vacate on my front door" after serving me no less then 4 times. I was a model tenant, quiet, took care of property, and never late on my rent in 5 years. I put money into the property. Yet I had to live with first, a Hoarding Family that snuck in their registered Sex offender relative. Then Veno Properties let a woman move in with a dog she couldn't handle, so she confined it and abused it. While I had rights to a quiet tenancy, I had to endure her poor animals incessant barking, for hours. When she locked the dog in the bathroom, the dog would scratch in panic for hours. I didn't have to spy on anyone, it was blatantly screaming in my apartment. Veno did nothing despite, their own 3-page animal addendum. They didn't give a shit about the dog. Guilda told me to call the Dog Officer. The tenant had to put the dog down, for Renal Failure. She then, set up a camera with a blue light to spy on me. When I went outside for anything, the camera was pointed at me. She kept telling me I killed her dog. Obviously suffering some kind of Dementia. She harassed me with her car, parked me in. See picture. Veno did nothing despite even having photographs. In fact, Veno's inspector, verbally told me I had 2 strikes against me (didn't care about my drywall tape hanging). I asked her to repeat the 2 strikes comment, but she refused, because she knew she was being Bias. You removed very much alive, Big old Arborvitae's trees, at 8am under my bedroom window, with no notice. They weren't dead and there was a reason they were planted, but you're the expert. You could have trimmed them. But your maintenance guy told me, you just didn't like them. Stop lying. Through 2 inspections of my apartment, by your experts, with all my drywall tape hanging off the ceiling, and me bringing it up directly...any professional would know there is a roof leak. It took you two years to fix it, after a steady stream of water was coming in the living room. Not to mention all the mold that exists in the rafters of that home, because the roof leaked for years. The bathroom ceiling has rot over the tub. The brick chimney is falling in; bricks lay on the ground. The Foundation is crumbling. The windows are broken. Yet you advertise this home as well maintained. It's clear the current tenant left after one year. It was important that you got your client" to chainsaw those trees. Like you built new steps to a door that didn't work. When you renovated the downstairs apartment, you had your maintenance guy use Gymnasium Lacquer, without a respirator and without opening the windows (they were all broken) and fumed out my apartment with my pets. That stuff can kill you, but you scoffed at my call to come open windows. You don't care about Tenants or your maintenance guys. Which is probably why both quit at the same time. Basically, your arrogant and are representing Slum Lords, which makes you a Slum Lord. Maybe you should pay attention, get your facts straight.
