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!

I'm a current owner. MPM has managed a house I own at 810 Northport Drive since '07. I was notified…read morerecently that a tree must be removed and that the cost to do so will be $12,000. This tree was allowed to grow for many years at a location very close to the house. I've been on the East Coast and haven't returned to Madison since buying it ... so had no idea about this tree. Now, suddenly, it's an emergency I'm expected to pay $12,000 to attend-to. MPM has made no effort to find a cheaper alternative, and has acknowledged no degree of responsibility, or offered to bear any part of the expense. I'm with DoD and can't get away to return to Madison. If I could, I'd get a chainsaw and remove the tree myself. The complete unwillingness to work with me regarding this unusual surprise is disappointing, to say the least. Good businesses are built on good character. Here, an ounce of foresight exercised long ago could have seen that tree transplanted as a sapling, or simply mowed-over. Once it was growing, I could easily have been notified. Now, I'm expected to bear a $12,000 bill for something I've been kept unaware of, for years. And no one has explained any aspect of this problem to me, how it evolved, why it costs so much to deal-with and why MPM won't be bearing even a portion of what should be a much lower cost. I'm looking for a new property manager. Why MPM let this problem evolve to this point and how they could dare confront me with the whole of this excessive bill is beyond me.

Their properties are beautiful Mansion Hill homes converted to spacious apartments. The apartment manager is very friendly and responsive to any maintenance requests (many of which were taken care of the next day). I do have to mention that they do not rent to most undergraduate students. These apartments are quite and are usually rented by grad students and young professionals. All the apartments I've seen have beautiful crown and base moldings, high ceilings, wood floors, gas stoves and many unique architectural touches. If you are looking for beautiful, well kept apartments in the downtown/capitol area this is the company to go with!

I've been told this company prefers to rent to adults/professionals and grad students who maintain the units and respect other tenants...their properties are not party pads.

I put in a 3rd request on May 14th. then all 3 requests are all canceled. I send a message to the property management to call me. no response. it is now may 18th and it was 87 degrees today and my house is at 85 degrees at 10pm and I cannot sleep which is why I am currently writing this review while I should be sleeping. I cannot sit by and pay 1260 a month for a company that will not respond to my normal maintenance requests. this is rediculous and I am hoping someone high up sees this review and I can finally get my ac fixed. If I could give them 0 stars I would. The maintenance team is absolutely a joke. I had to send atleast 10 maintenance requests for a simple I have no hot water complaint. Well after 4 visits I had to request an outside company to come take a look at it. Took them all of 30 seconds to say it needed a new hot water heater and softeners. I had to make 2 more requests after to get them to replace it. Then the company spilt water all over the carpet and broke the doors for the closet the softener was in. Which was in my 5 year old sons bedroom. The maintenance department decides a shower curtain is acceptable as a closet and didn't clean up the spilt water softener salt In there that they spilt. Be prepared to spend over 1200 a month in rent and if you have any problems with the apartment good luck getting them solved and without being super ghetto repairs. Sincerely, Very unhappy renter

This is my second year renting from Bruce Wunnicke of Delta Properties and he is far and away the…read morebest landlord I have lived with in Madison (and I have lived with a total of 5 landlords and rental companies in my 8 years here). His properties are well-maintained, so that you don't have to compromise the structural integrity of your entire house when you want a charming apartment rather than a square box with white walls and beige carpet. He updates kitchens and bathrooms so that you're not cooking and bathing like it's 1920/30/40/50/60/whatever. His apartments are perhaps a bit more spendy than what you usually see in the area, but they're totally worth it and usually very large. For instance, I pay $975 for my two-bedroom but it is MASSIVE -- two living areas, a huge kitchen, a very large bedroom, a slightly smaller bedroom and a large and well-appointed bathroom. Plus free parking behind the house. Bruce is attentive and responsive to issues that arise (which, with houses built at the turn of the last century, they will). When I moved in, the bathroom sink wasn't draining properly and he came and fixed it immediately. There was also one broken blind so he replaced the whole set! He is also a really sweet guy and a pleasure to deal with. I have also been in contact with his daughter, Katherine, in some of the renting processes and she is also incredibly nice and great to work with. So many landlords in Madison are seedy, dishonest, manipulative, money-hungry or otherwise unconcerned with being decent human beings. Bruce is none of these things. He's truly a terrific landlord to rent from -- his properties are beautiful, his prices are (in my opinion) fair and he is an extremely responsible landlord.

They value the time and money of potential residents much higher than that of current residents no matter how long you've lived there. I was walked in on while asleep and half clothed by maintenance men not once but TWICE without them knocking. This is about as close as you can get to being in an HOA without ever having signed up to be in one. They are strict and often passive aggressive including but not limited to threatening to drain the pools if residents can not "cooperate" with their rules. Children are not allowed in pool areas even with adults. I also frequently had to keep my thermostat around 75 degrees to keep my apartment above a hoodie temp. due to poor insulation. Beware.

I didn't leave the place in perfect shape but as someone with family in construction and renovation I guarantee you it was NOT worth that much. What the hell is the point of a deposit at that point? Sure it has a lot of nice reviews but interesting that they're all from 8 years ago, around the time the place was nearly done being built. Likely a promotion ran where they gave some perk to people leaving nice reviews. They're nice at first but the moment you're in there it literally feels like you cannot LIVE there. You have passive aggressive management sending rude letters and emails- to the point now where any notice from a landlord sends my anxiety up the roof, even to this day when I live in a HOUSE now. Management, don't even bother responding to this because I'm not reading your responses. I don't trust you enough to give you my real name, because knowing you, you'd be awful. At this point, I don't trust you to actually be genuine in anything you say. Everything is a nice platitude to get the next lease in your roster so you can rip someone else off.

Writing this because I see a lot of people complaining about not getting their security deposit back. Not only did I not get mine back, they billed me a near additional 2,000. I did not leave the place in perfect shape, but as someone who has relatives in construction and modeling it SURE AS HELL wasn't a security deposit + pet deposit + a whole 2,000 worth of damage. What's the point of security deposits at that point? Be for real. Not to mention I was legitimately afraid to do anything and even live in my house because of the passive aggressive nonsense and attitude of management. To this day I still find myself worrying about the same things and I live in a HOUSE now. That's how traumatized I was by their behavior.
