I agree with Mary. This is my only 1 star review. My only negative review here at all. I hope to…read morehelp others avoid these leasing agents. They took my money and ran. Left me with a roach ridden apartment with no buzzers & little to no parking (neither of which major issue was disclosed by them), repeated criminal activity with arrests that the landlords ignored, poor lighting, smokers, broken plumbing, etc. Eric & Andy at NSA&C are not kind, nor honest. Worst rental experience of my life, and NS is aware of major issues with a large landlord they lease for, and could not seem to care less. I told them all about the issues for 2 years, and sent them proof of others complaining, yet they still lease out units in that building willy nilly. Then Andy told me to use his name as a reference since I told him the landlords bullied me, harassed me, and did not fix major repairs and he badmouthed me to my new landlord. So throw in jeopardizing my rental security after being traumatized for 2 years by bully slumlords. Nice guy.

I tried to rent an apartment through them (specifically through William (Bill) Cannon) and found…read morethe process impersonal, out-of-touch, and shady as heck. Bill seems to think himself above human decency and refused to respond to any emails or inquiries and I felt my application with 800+ credit score was rejected due to either the listing being a scheme to collect application fees or for Bill already having an applicant in mind and not doing his job in good faith. I also heard from someone while visiting the property that he wasn't pushing needed repairs for one of the current tenants because he wanted them out, so I probably dodged a bullet. I guess I am a fool for expecting more from humanity than this, but I would avoid Schermerhorn and Bill Cannon especially. Housing isn't something you should be so blasé about.

I've listed in a Cagan Property in Lakeview for almost four years and it's been great! I know…read morereviews for property management companies are almost always bad but Cagan really deserves five stars. I haven't had any issues with them-- they take payment online, they fix maintenance issues quickly, rent hasn't gone up much, if at all, over the last four years either. The team I work with is great, flexible, and laid back. I also think for the area the rent is a great deal for the amount of space you get, at least in my building. I would continue to live with them if I could! If you're looking for a building in the Lakeview area, I would certainly give them a shot!

The building management person, Ed, is quite a specimen. When i came over to check out the…read moreapartment before renting it, he led me to the wrong apartment and we walked into an apartment where a person was still living inside of it and it seemed like he had 0 days notice to prepare because he was scared and shirtless. The apartment looked absolutely nothing like the listings online but we still signed the lease (dumb move). Ed has a great landlord special where he paints over a leak in the shower ceiling 3 times in a row without fixing the problem, but he made sure to say that we were causing the problem and that our shower curtain was the issue (No it was not). 2 inch German cockroaches live in the laundry room and yes they do get sprayed with Raid but i have seen them for 2 years in the apartment, so im assuming they also pay rent. The rent gets increased every year and you cannot contest it. Sometimes they do turn off all the water in the building for maintenance but they do not give you a heads up until they already turned it off. The shower water is low pressure and will turn off if the person above or below you turns it on, there were lots of days where water was not available for showering. When we moved out, Cagan just said to get someone to take over the lease and that was all- Ed called us to demand 100 dollars for leaving the apartment a mess (the mess was thumbtack and tv mount holes that we were allowed to do and asked for permission to do so when we moved in) and we did not get a message from Cagan to hand over 100 dollars, so im just guessing the money goes straight into his pocket. Our apartment was the cheapest in the complex at 950 in Lakeview East at 541 West Oakdale Avenue, a very desirable location in Chicago near tons of businesses, restaurants, the lake and lots of greenery, so it was a nice deal at first but once the rent creeped up to 1200 we couldn't justify the price anymore. What was nice was that the utilities were included however there was a lot going on internally and it was ultimately not worth it

Incredibly attentive and responsive staff, from the office to the maintenance folks. They're proactive about health and safety concerns. They make it a point to replace all smoke detector batteries twice a year and offer complimentary preventative pest control (always with advance notice and signs posted letting you know it's going to be happening, and they always make sure to ask if you have pets that they need to be careful not to let out when they enter) - they keep the building extremely clean. I see the cleaning person around the building doing her thing almost every day. It's also the most festive building I've ever lived in. Every month they put up new decorations (and sometimes candy) for holidays in the entryways, lobby, even on each floor. And they keep a ton of beautiful plants and a water feature in the lobby and laundry room. Everyone is very friendly. When you run into the maintenance person, he always takes a moment to ask how everything is going on your floor/in your apartment and maybe share some fun facts about the building's design. If you have an issue or concern about something, they respond right away. They send you holiday and birthday cards and have been offering free laundry on site throughout the pandemic. The laundry room is huge with 6 washers (most brand new) and 8 dryers. They do everything they can to make receiving packages easy and secure for their tenants. If you're looking to rent in the Edgewater neighborhood, do yourself a favor and ask Ardmore Winthrop Properties for a tour of one of their buildings.
