Elevators are frequently out of service, which becomes more than an inconvenience in a multi-floor property. There have been extended periods without hot water -- at one point lasting nearly a week -- with limited communication or clear timelines for resolution. Access control has also been unreliable. Key fobs have malfunctioned at entry points, locking residents out despite active credentials. Plumbing issues have been another recurring problem, adding to the overall sense that preventative maintenance is not a priority. What's most frustrating isn't just the issues themselves -- things break in any building -- it's the pattern. The problems feel reactive rather than proactively managed, and communication from management does little to inspire confidence. Residents deserve consistent access, functioning utilities, and transparent updates when things go wrong. Unfortunately, that has not been the experience here.

We had another flawless experience with Jim Flanders, this time while selling the same home he…read morehelped us buy 6 years ago. We have kept a great relationship with Jim through the years, and my husband has worked with him on buying and selling some of our investment property. So when it came time to sell our city home in Logan Square as we made the move to the suburbs, we knew Jim Flanders was the one to help us do this. We were building a new construction home in the burbs, so we had a lot of lead time in knowing that we needed to list the property. This was a tricky balance since we didn't want to list the home too quickly (and risk selling it and being homeless for many months until our new house was ready), but we didn't want to miss the peak market season during the summer months and wait until the fall or winter to list it. We also have 2 toddlers at home, so the idea of having to keep the house "showing ready" for an extended period of time was daunting. In a perfect world, we would be able to get under contract quickly with a buyer, but negotiate a later close date and get the best of both worlds. Jim helped us do a walkthrough of the house and pointed out the things he recommended we do to get the house in showing form (painting the walls, caulking some areas, clearing out toy congested areas) but only focused on what he felt would actually make a difference rather than asking us to invest a bunch of money in things that ultimately do not help sell quicker or at a higher price. Jim helped guide us in our timing, thanks to his knowledge and understanding of the market. We listed on a Wednesday in July, and decided to have an open house that very weekend. Jim came and managed the open house for us and the first couple to see the home made an offer that same day. They did not have a real estate agent, and Jim led all the conversations directly with the buyer and negotiated the terms and conditions for the contract. He was able to negotiate a 90 day closing, which gave us plenty of time to stay in our home and enjoy it before needing to vacate. The best quality about Jim Flanders is his easy going personality and honest approach. He always has your back and wants the best for you. But he is not pushy. He will not talk you into doing yourself a disservice just to get a quicker commission. He truly wants to advise you and guide you to get the best results possible and his patience is incredible. He will be there as many times as you need him for as long as you need him, to make sure everything goes smoothly. It was one thing for us to have the utmost trust in Jim, but the most impressive thing was how much the buyers also trusted Jim. They opted not to get their own real estate agent and were fine working directly through Jim (even though he was representing us, the sellers) because they also could feel that Jim had everybody's best interests at heart. This is where Jim Flanders really sets himself apart from other realtors I've worked with. He forms relationships, not just with his clients, but with the opposite clients as well. He took time to have many phone conversations with the buyers to put them at ease, talk through the inspection findings, and negotiate our terms. They trusted him so much that when it came time to close, they didn't even ask for a final walk through of the house before closing. We couldn't have asked for a smoother and less stressful process of selling our home. We got the price we wanted, the closing date we wanted, and all the negotiations and conversations were easy and friendly.

As an out-of-state owner of a rental condo in Vetro in the South Loop, I have trusted CL3…read moremanagement from faraway Texas for the last 9 years. John Materna and his hardworking staff have been at the ready whenever a new tenant moved in or repairs were needed. Although some tenants were difficult, CL3 kept me informed via email regarding expenses. For example, they found bargain prices when a refrigerator no longer worked and a washer/dryer unit broke down, one after the other. Thomas Clohisy shopped around and we were able to replace each with a new appliance. Thank you Thomas! Especially helpful was CL3's regular documentation of both minor and major expenses as they came up. From a light bulb (really!) to a large window that had to be replaced, I had the receipts for all repairs and improvements over a 9-year period. That came in handy when my insurance company covered all costs for the huge window replacement--$2500! John and Brett Huelat's employees always handled difficult problems expeditiously and quickly, and stayed in contact with me whenever "disasters" such as accidentally flushing a gold necklace down the toilet occurred. Thankfully, it was recovered quickly. I stayed in touch with the company mainly through email, and when tax time came around I had the spreadsheets necessary to support expenses. My CPA was grateful for such detailed information. Now that I am selling the condo, I am grateful for CL3's care and concern over the years, which has kept the unit in good condition. Through teamwork, cooperation with tenants as well as the landlord (me!), and expert support, I am able to recommend the company and its employees without any reservations.

Well the day finally came when The Queen made her move to get her own place. The building that she…read morewas interested in was literally down the street from us, so brand spanking new and no need for a moving truck. The property is managed by Root Property Group and I have to say the entire experience, from viewing the units to moving in was a great experience. The agent that we met with (Mark) was very pleasant as he showed us around the property to view the different layouts of the units. He was very responsive and accommodating as there was another woman doing a virtual tour along with us. Mark was great, showing us around as well as answering the questions. After viewing the unit that The Queen actually ended up moving into, she told Mark she was interested in submitting an application that day. While we were leaving soon for Mexico, The Queen did not want to wait and asked Mark if he could send it to her while in Mexico. Mark responded immediately and even answered questions while we were in Mexico. On moving day, The Queen and I went to the property office to get the keys and such to move in. The folks in the office were friendly and thorough, explaining the move in process, showing the assigned parking spaces, etc. After The Queen moved in, there were a few things in the unit that needed attending to, and the management team was responsive and got the issues fixed. To date, whenever The Queen has had any questions, Root has been responsive. The one thing all of us love about the way they are managing the building is that they have security all over the place. Entry into the building requires a FOB and/or app to get in, as well as getting into the elevator, the mailroom and garage. There are also cameras in the hallways. The Queen and I are very happy with the way Root has been responding to her inquiries as well as mine.

This place has gone downhill so fast, it's astounding. Had great service for years until end of…read more2021. Would avoid renting from them until they get their act together again - if that's even possible. Honestly, would have given a glowing review up until winter of last year and called them a "family-feeling" management company; not sure what happened to turn them into yet another landlord/property management company trying to squeeze every last dollar out of their tenants and their tenancy. Broken washer/dryer that had notice put in the second week of January did not get replaced until the last week of April. After repeated communication, we were ghosted about the issue only to find out that our property manager had left and we had a new person. Think that would be something the tenants should be aware of! I could write a whole novel on how abysmal their service was with the washer/dryer situation; everything from poor communication to the installers arriving at our apartment at 7am on a weekday with no notice from the management company to both tenants to the installers having to do the whole thing again (7:30am the next day, still with no warning, but, hey, extra half an hour!) because Root ordered the wrong washer/dryer. Currently, the new appliances don't even fit the space and the accordion door had to be removed to "fit" it. Unsurprisingly, the doors are still sitting in our apartment since Root has not removed them. The company did the absolute bare minimum to "make it up to us" for all of the inconvenience. On top of this, after giving our Notice to Vacate we continued to receive messages that bordered on harassment via email and text about renewing our lease and how a new lease would be sent over when it was abundantly clear we were not reupping. Icing on the cake is being told that our place is too "cluttered" for showings when all we're trying to do is move, clear out every nook and cranny of our stuff, and get as far away from Root as possible. I genuinely am astounded at their reaction to what a living space in the middle of a move looked like. Though the leasing agent (who showed up after his agreed upon time and with no advance warning of being late) continued to insist it was "all transactional" and "just business," I'm deeply offended at how he continued to mention cleaning the place to look presentable for Root and their needs while his tone cast aspersions and disparagement for what is a situational living arrangement. None of this is touching, either, on the back stairwell that took months to fix and was a legitimate safety hazard. Every interaction with them this past year has been heavily about what is best for Root and the Root property. Utterly astounding that the property manager, when speaking to us about the washer/dryer situation, mentioned how great the washer/dryer was and that it's one that will be good for a long time. That might have been helpful had we not had it installed a few weeks before preparing to leave the place. We offered to break the lease and/or leave early due to moving into a new property, but Root would rather get their money and continue to bombard us with asinine emails and requests. I cannot fathom any other reason than them just wanting to get their rent money that they would not take us up on leaving early. Considering it would have been a whole month where they could take their staging photos - which the property manager, when asked, mentioned they did not have any previous on file simply because he didn't know why - and fix their broken washer/dryer while doing any other updates to the space they might have felt were necessary (the kitchen appliances are outdated as well, so good luck to whomever has to wait four+ months to get them fixed when they inevitably die), it seems like a no-brainer. We would not have gone through any of this hassle, not be leaving with an extremely sour taste in our mouths about Root, and this review would have gone differently. I'm just amazed at how a company that I had such positive and tenant-first interactions with when I moved in two years ago (and heard the same from my boyfriend about his four years before that) has become a standard leasing company interested in what is best for their property, which itself is debatable. I cannot stress how happy I will be to be done with them. One positive from all of this is the urgency with which it's inspired us to move out.
