moved Into an apartment managed by REM commercial in 2022. There was always an issue with mold…read more Mold in the corners of the windows, under the kitchen and bathroom sink as well as all over the bathroom walls. This problem was not apparent during move in as the company made sure to "paint" as they do so often to cover up the mold issue. It started to become a real problem when it began to affect my health. During September of 2024 after contacting REM and putting in multiple work orders for mold and leaks I attempted to clean my bathroom walls with a cleaning spray given to me by one of the workers who had come to paint (the cleaner was in a Febreze bottle, as you know NOT labeled as a mold cleaner) less then a week after cleaning my walls I caught pneumonia in my right lung and had to go to the emergency room on two different occasions due to breathing issues because of this mold. I was also told by one of their painters how unprofessional the company staff (specifically Keary Motz) is and I have also experienced this myself, they get a lot of complaints. She made living at those apartment a living hell anytime I had to call into the office she always has a horrible attitude never happy. They are simply money hungry and take their time sending someone to fix any issues, before I moved out I was waiting over 5 months to have someone come fix my bathroom as promised (can attach screenshots from worker Sandy) and I put in multiple work orders that were listed as completed BY REM . I recently moved out and when I contacted Keary letting her know my keys were left inside of the apartment she actually hung up on me I AM REALLY SURPRISED SHE STILL HAS A JOB, she should be terminated I am not sure what kind of employer REM commercial is but they allow their employees to speak to PAYING customers any type of way depending how they feel that day, I still never heard anything back from REM after she hung up on me. They have so many issues with these apartments on Newton Street in Akron. Here is your warning do not rent from them period. I am going to post anywhere I can to warn those about this place. I have so many pictures of the mold that continued to grow from the time I moved in for two years with someone coming ONE time to address the mold issue. There was even mold growing behind my bed!!! GROSS. Plus I gave a 600 deposit and Keary addressed nothing about that on the phone because I wouldn't drive to canton to return the keys. never been told to drive over 30 minutes to return keys. So unprofessional

I am an out-of-state real estate investor, and working with ICON Property Management has been one…read moreof the most frustrating and costly experiences I've had. From the very beginning, there were serious red flags. The management fee presented during the sales process did not match the actual agreement. It felt like a bait-and-switch tactic--low pricing was shown upfront, only to be changed at the contract stage. During our initial interview, I specifically asked whether they handle Section 8 tenants. Rick (one of the partners) confidently said yes, which was a key reason I chose them. However, I later discovered they weren't even actively using AffordableHousing.com--one of the main platforms for Section 8 tenants. When I pushed them on this, they admitted their account hadn't been used in a long time and needed to be reactivated. This was shocking and completely misleading. In reality, they seem to avoid Section 8 entirely. The breaking point was how they handled a rodent issue. The tenant reported it, and despite multiple weekly follow-ups from me, nothing was resolved for over a month. There was little to no communication, no urgency, and no clear plan. As a result, the tenant moved out, causing me significant financial loss--lost rent, turnover costs, and repairs. What made this worse is that ICON was aware the tenant was planning to leave and had stopped paying rent, but they failed to inform me. Even after escalation, Shawna (another partner) avoided responsibility and repeatedly redirected communication instead of addressing the issue directly. Critical information was withheld from me as the owner. After terminating the agreement, things got even worse: * They did not return my property keys * They withheld rent from another unit * They stopped responding to calls and emails entirely This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable. If you are an investor--especially out of state--do not use ICON Property Management. This company cost me time, money, and unnecessary stress, and created avoidable legal risk.

We moved into a beautiful rental home with ease. Not knowing that the house had a horrible rodent…read moreproblem. Also, when we first moved in, we couldn't get a hold of anyone and they wouldn't answer the phone, nor return our calls. Our water was brown. Once the company was made aware of the issue of the rodents, they sent a really good pest company to address the issue and it was successful. However, when we got ready to move out, we took two weeks cleaning the house. Even sweeping the garage, clearing any garbage, washed walls all except one room, my grandchildren had some crayon marks on the walls and carpet stains. Other than that, the house was in the same condition that we received it. Lawrence Realty would not return our deposit, not even a fraction of it. They asked to see the place when we hadn't finish moving out and hadn't cleaned it. Assessed the place based off of that. Gave us a long list of issues that were inaccurate. Our only problem with this was that we didn't record a video of how the place looked. Make sure that when you move out of their properties that you record a video so they cant accuse you of creating damage that was inaccurate. There are some things that are normal wear and tear and those things were not considered. Simple things like a knob on a closet that cost 97 cents at home depot. Be careful with these guys. When we toured the place, Meghan stood outside while we looked around. Afterward, we were very pleased and wanted to rent the place. One of the walls were blue at the time that we moved in, they accused of painting the walls which never happened.

Things were never fixed that we had paid for. He let our home fall into such disarray, after being pulled into court, a Judge deemed our home unfit for human habitation. He does not do any background checks, because a previous tenant did not come close to the financial screening aspect along with numerous evictions. Some of the people he let in would not qualify for a rental in the worst parts of town. It has been over a year now and our home is still under repairs before we can even list it. To date we are getting very close to hitting the $80k mark for the many years of neglect. My advice is to steer clear of him and his company that were involved in this nightmare! They advertise his son works along with him.
