I rented from Todd for the 7 years I lived in Champaign at two different TLT properties, and I can…read morehonestly say that my experience in Champaign would not have been as good as it was had I gone with a different landlord/rental company. I signed my lease blind from out of state the very first year and Todd was incredibly accommodating and understanding of the situation, and went out of his way to send me extra pictures of the apartment both inside and out so I knew what I was getting when I signed (this was before video tours were a common thing). When I moved out of that apartment to a bigger one with TLT, Todd happily showed me every unit I had even a little interest in so I could make whatever choice was best and went over the honest pros and cons of each as we went through them. From a renter perspective, TLT is fantastic. Maintenance requests were always taken care of within a few days, and the few times where a very serious issue happened (i.e., pipes bursting) maintenance was there on the same-day to make sure no damage was done to anything inside the apartment. Huge shout out to Jim and Andy for always taking care of things. Any time there was any situation with extenuating circumstances for either me or my roommates over the years Todd was always very understanding and flexible and always genuinely tried to work to help make things work seamlessly. We always had plenty of heads up when our apartment was going to be shown, and there was constant communication in all of the move out / move in processes. I really can't say enough good things about Todd / TLT and the experience I had renting from him. If you have the option to rent from TLT over any other group, do it, you won't regret it.

I'll start by saying that renting in Champaign-Urbana is difficult. I've rented in several places…read moreall over town, and this place is full of predatory landlords and slumlords taking advantage of students and working class folks. You can do A LOT worse than Royse Brinkmeyer (and I have). That said, you can also do a lot better. From the start, my experience renting with Royse and Brinkmeyer was riddled with incompetency, clerical errors, and frankly some insulting assumptions on their part. For those who don't want to read the forthcoming novel, here's the short list: -R&B made several clerical errors/mistakes during my lease signing process, which prevented me from accessing my tenant portal and paying my first month's rent and security deposit (a mistake which they initially blamed me for). -R&B threatened to fine me for not complying with things that were NOT in my lease such as renter's insurance and providing my dog's DNA samples (this happened at least twice). -R&B maintenance, while quick to respond, did not provide me any notice that they were coming when I filed a request. -R&B management is extremely inconsiderate and callous when it comes to respecting tenant's privacy when showing a unit for future renters. -Excessive move-out fines/taking tenants security deposits. There are some good, kind people who work for R&B. My issues are with the company's policies and procedures. There's something particularly grating about a company like R&B, who are basically high-end slumlords who have a lot of window dressing and flowery language to make you think that they are courteous and professional towards their tenants. When it comes down to their bottom line, R&B won't hesitate to remind you that you are ultimately no more than a landless peasant, always subservient to a feudal lord. Receipts: First, I signed a lease with them early in 2024 to begin in Fall 2024-2025. They sent me a lease with the wrong dates,--it said 2025-2026. This meant that my tenant portal didn't properly activate for me to pay my deposit, rent, etc. They kept telling me to pay my deposit to finalize my lease, but the portal wouldn't allow me to. The person I corresponded with was rather rude and seemed to imply that my technological ineptitude was the problem, rather than a simple clerical error on their part. I also apparently signed my lease just before R&B overhauled the language in their lease agreements. So, having signed before this, I was NOT subject to some of the new stipulations in their leases, which included mandatory renter's insurance and providing the DNA of your dogs if you're a pet owner (I have two dogs). They do this to identify tenants who don't pick up their pet waste and fine them. I always have baggies for my dog's poop and pick up after them. I didn't even allow them to poop in my complex's courtyard area, so I wasn't worried about being affected by this anyways. Despite not being subject to these clauses in the lease, I received emails and phone calls demanding that I comply, and they threatened to fine me if I did not do so. I then had to explain back to them their own lease agreement so they would stop pestering me. They still requested that I provide my dog's DNA samples as a courtesy to them, but I politely declined. I've frankly seen too many landlords exploit or discriminate against tenants based on their dog's breed, and some of the dog DNA tests aren't very accurate. So they seemed annoyed by that but left me alone for awhile. Fast forward a couple months and I start getting calls again from Tari Christians in R&B management, saying that she received "multiple complaints" from my neighbors about the dog poop in the courtyard (turns out it was another one of my neighbors with two dogs who wasn't picking up after them). I politely said that she was mistaken, and that I am a very conscientious and polite neighbor when it comes to picking up after my pets. She did not believe me, and spoke to me in the most condescending and patronizing manner--again threatening to fine me if I did not provide my dog's DNA samples to PROVE that I wasn't the culprit. I was absolutely infuriated by this, but I agreed to do this as a courtesy to finally put the matter to rest. Tari said she would drop off the DNA kits the next day. She never did that. I got harassed, accused of being a liar, and threatened with excessive fines, and basically coerced into complying with something that was NOT in my lease agreement. And then they didn't even follow through on giving me the DNA kits. I eventually had to go speak to my neighbor who wasn't picking up his dog's waste directly. I didn't want him to be subject to the same type of harassment, so I just asked him to be more mindful about picking up his dog's poop. He apologized and rectified the issue. After all that I decided I was definitely not going to be resigning with R&B. So they began showing my apartment. In Champaign, renters have considerably less rights

It's a quiet building with considerate neighbors, and the landlord, John Hamilton, is fantastic and has always been great about having things fixed as soon as they break. It's in a beautiful area with brick streets and tons of trees, and West Side Park is only a block away. It always felt like a really safe area, and despite having things shipped to me all the time I only had one package go missing in 7 years (compared to where I live now, where I had 2 packages stolen in the first month). Units have wall air conditioners and dishwashers, and there's parking in the back, with covered parking available for a small charge (great in winter). My unit also had a ceiling fan in the bedroom and a huge walk-in closet I mostly used for storage. Downtown Champaign and a couple of bus lines are within close walking distance, with Illinois Terminal just a few more blocks out, and the university and the big commercial centers north of I-74 on Neil and Prospect are a short drive away.

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this complex. When I was planning where I was…read moregoing to live while going to law school, I knew that I wanted some place that not only had great amenities but was away from the parties and mayhem that is Green street. From a community standpoint - they have everything. The neighbors are quiet and conscientious which I cannot stress how amazing that has been as a student trying to study the last 3 years of my doctorate. The guards at the gate are kind and wave to you everyday as you come home. You feel safe knowing that someone is making sure that intruders stay out. Meanwhile, the club house has a racket ball court, a restaurant, an A+ gym, and the most wonderful pool to relax by on a hot summer day. The grounds are impeccably kept. Between all of the beautiful trees and green grass and the truly stunning lake that sits in the middle of the complex - I feel like I'm returning to my hotel everyday instead of my apartment. The apartments - the apartments are very well priced for the area and their size. They're on the higher end but they're reasonable. They are truly beautiful from the crown molding to the details in arched pass-throughs or fireplaces. The heating and cooling system is individually controlled so you always can have your home the temperature that you would like. The tall ceilings make you feel like you're living in a mansion. The best part about living at Baytowne however, are the people in charge of the property. This is something I NEVER thought I would have the pleasure of saying about a leasing office. When you call - they answer and they respond. I always felt like my voice was heard, I always knew that I had someone I could ask questions to who would be more than happy to chat with me. Additionally, any time I had a maintenance issue they were on it immediately. You can find an apartment anywhere - but only here can you find your home . If I had to do it all over again I'd grab my pen to sign the lease now.
