I agree with the previous reviewer - the insides are cheap and the rentals below average overall. We had a leak over the Christmas break and when we returned, there was sopping wet carpet in an area approximately 3x2. When we reported it, it took them 24 hours to respond. When they did, their repair involved tearing up our balcony and caulking the balcony door. They did not pull up the carpet nor did they pull up the pad so it obviously mildewed, as did all of the window sills - where the sill was pulling apart from the window itself and surrounded in black. There is essentially NO soundproofing whatsoever and we constantly heard parties in the adjacent unit where people would sit in the hall, run back and forth yelling and drinking by the elevator. We reported this but it kept happening so I assume nothing was done. We also had two door decorations stolen - a Christmas wreath, which I later found on a security light and a Mardi Gras wreath which had the mask ripped off and which I never found. All of the baseboards are coming apart at the corners and we had to call maintenance multiple times because our sinks and toilet kept stopping up. Upon moving out, we used the carpet cleaner management suggested (after we had the carpet near the balcony dry cleaned) and we had a maid service clean the apartment. At the walkthrough the manager (who is new and maybe even a bigger nightmare than the apartment complex itself) thanked us for leaving the unit in such good shape; he signed the checkout document and told us he would send our deposit. We received it approximately 10 days later. We are now trying to rent a new apartment in Green Bay. We sent a deposit to a new facility and were shocked when they called us to say that we had gotten a poor reference from Riverside. The manager said that we had paid all of our rent on time and that we had never caused any problems. Then he said that he would not recommend us as tenants as after we left they had to replace the carpet due to the smell of cat urine. This was the first time we had heard anything about this. Odd, too, that we received a final check-out and our deposit back. When we called him, he said he felt like he didn't need to notify us because he figured we wouldn't do anything about it anyway. (We did have an old cat that became sick, thus a secondary reason for the dry-cleaning). After we pressed the issue he said there was nothing he could do as after we left he immediately turned the unit over to sales (which means that new carpet had to be purchased no matter what). We have since reported the manager and Riverside Place to the Wisconsin Consumer Protection Bureau who says that this is against the law. All of this makes me feel as though they are "pinning" the cost of carpet on us and then destroying our ability to rent another unit. We have since secured another place (as all of our other references were excellent) but had to put down an $1100 cat deposit. I could go on and on but this gives an indication of how problematic these rentals actually are. At $860/mo this is a total rip-off. If you insist on living downtown I would look into other rentals; friends of ours live in these and have been very pleased.

The units are a block away from Lambeau field with many of the units having a beautiful view of the stadium. One of the best thing about the Flats are the location. Standing in the shadows of Lambeu you are in walking distance of bars, restaurants and a ton of events hosted by Titletown. Every day there are events like Zumba, yoga, cocktail hours and so much more. You are a block away from the grocery store as well. The units themselves are very new with stainless appliances and very well taken care of. Many of the units feature balconies. The management team does a great job responding to any issues and always schedules fun events for residents. The amenities are good as well. There are a lot of outdoor areas (beautiful patio with grills and fire pits) a dog park, and secure package rooms. I would recommend Titletown Flats for the environment and newness of the building.

Neighborhood includes a retirement community, church and nearby high school. Blocks from Oneida Street, banks, restaurants, and the mall. No dishwasher in unit, on-site laundry consisted of 1 washer and 1 dryer and the dryer took two cycles to dry cottons. A/C in the living room instead of bedroom. Maintenance takes A LONG TIME to fix stuff. Averages 1-2 weeks after request put in. Examples: my air conditioner was broken. Dials fell off and front plastic cover wouldn't stay on. Submitted a work order. They replaced the dials and that was it. Garage door wouldn't lock. Maintenance took 4 weeks to fix. I was lied to upon application regarding power to the garage.

I leased with Toonen Properties for just over 3 years: 2 years at The Shores and 13 months at Cedar…read moreLake. My lease at Cedar Lake was set to expire on 10/1/2022. In July, Toonen reached out regarding lease renewal, which included a large rent increase of 14.5%. Although I anticipated a rent increase, I did not expect it to be 14.5%. I called the office to inquire if there were any plans for improvements to the apartment (i.e., replacing the old carpet, updating to hardwood floors, replacing old appliances, etc.) but NO, it was an across-the-board market-inspired increase. I was in the process of looking for a home (condo) to purchase, but the housing market being what it was earlier in the year, the search was going very slowly. I pondered the situation and knew if I didn't find anything by October 1st, I was going to suspend my search until spring. Eventually, I decided to sign the year lease, thinking it was unlikely I'd find anything by October and that by the time I started searching again in Spring and went through the whole process, I would be close to renewal again in 2023. So, late in the evening of August 3rd, after business hours, I signed the lease renewal. On 8/4, I received an email around mid-morning, confirming Toonen had received my renewal and also signed it. An hour or so later, my realtor texted me about a condo that was coming to market, within my price range, and was I interested. And I was definitely interested! I immediately called the Toonen office and spoke to Tina. I was very transparent with her, and asked her if we could negate the JUST-signed renewal and sign the bi-monthly renewal instead and she said no. I was disappointed to say the least, that less than 2 hours after completing the renewal there was not even a consideration. Nonetheless, I viewed the condo, loved it, and put in an offer and my offer was accepted. On 8/11, I submitted my formal 60-day notice that I would be vacating by 10/31/2022. Again, I contacted the office to see if there was any way Toonen would consider terminating my lease early. I had been an excellent tenant for +3 years. I'd always paid rent on time, followed the rules, etc. I was hopeful that Toonen would take all the circumstances into consideration, especially given that it was literally less than 2 hours after Toonen had signed the renewal and allow me out of the lease. My hopes were dashed. I was out of the apartment before 10/31. I'd been monitoring the apartment listings since August and apartments were renting fairly quickly. I again was hopeful that my apartment would rent quickly. Wrong again. Very little effort was put by Toonen into re-renting. I advertised it on social media, but my circle is only so big. I knew November would be rough for me financially as I got everything in order at my new condo, but that I would be able to catch up on the rent I was expected to pay on top of my new mortgage, HOA fees, etc. Unfortunately, on Nov 11th, my job was eliminated and I was laid off. So here I find myself, without income, with a mortgage, and HOA fees, with normal expenses (lights & gas, water bill, phone bill, etc.) and with a 2nd rent on an apartment that I don't live in. And so, I reached out to Toonen again, begging for mercy, to have the lease terminated. I would do my best to pay the rent they charged me for November and December, and their late fees, as quickly as possible, but for them to keep piling on rent fees every month meant I would be buried in debt. Mind you, Robert Toonen owns the following: * 5 apartment communities in the Green Bay area AND * 6 apartment communities in De Pere AND * 3 apartment communities in Appleton AND * 1 apartment community in each, Kaukauna, Little Chute and Menasha, for a total of 17 apartment communities; AND * 1 storage facility in Green Bay. He collects many hundreds of thousands of dollars every month, if not in excess of a Million... yet there is no consideration for the folks who are putting that money in his pockets. The unconscionable greed is sickening.

The hole remained. A call to see if was ok is what a quality rental property would do. The rule is you can only have plants and patio furniture on your deck. Our downstairs neighbor told us the manager would stand by her patio and peer up at our apartment. We got reprimanded because she thought that the watering can inside our apartment beside the patio door was actually outside on the deck. Weird

Northern Management…read more I'm sick to my stomach writing this review. I was located in a bottom unit and came home on Wednesday July 4th to my storage closet flooded due to my upstairs neighbors lack of common sense to contact the property's maintenance team to have a leak looked at which turned to a huge problem. My family ends up being displaced for over 2 weeks. We are a US MILITARY family. I get the pleasure of dealing with ML ( who conveniently left a week after this happened) who at first makes an attempt to tell me the unit would be fixed in a few days time. (FALSE) a few days pass and we visit the unit to grab more clothing while being displaced. At this point the ceiling is wet and stained from the damage and the carpets are damaged from water. I am told by Michelle Lane that they would rip up the carpets to dry them out and they would possibly be replacing the ceiling. After this any future attempts to make contact with M fail, no one in the front office would answer calls (I never called repeatedly, maybe 2-3 times over the course of their normal business hours) A few more days pass, Northern Management decides to rip a hole in the ceiling and put units in the ceiling to dry the ceiling out. (not the correct way to fix this problem) I get news that the apartment should be good by Wednesday July 12th. I cancelled the rest of my hotel reservations (we don't have family to stay with in town) and come home on my work lunch break to check things out. There is a hole in the ceiling in the storage closet and a trail of insulation through the whole unit, doors still ripped off the frame, and black mold in the closet ( we think this is from not knowing the neighbors and a leak for quite some time, and this is not an area of space we utilize in the closet so we didnt know it was there) So now I'm fed up, after over $1,000 in hotels, living out of suitcase with my family, I call the city. Since our 3 year old daughter resides in the area with the black mold, it becomes and issue of health. I was told they would contact Northern Management to have it resolved. OF COURSE they contact me not even a day later to come get it fixed. They painted over the water damage. They only sprayed the black mold, and patched the ceiling so poorly it looks like it could fall at any time. I also filed a complaint with the Department of Consumer Protection/Division. In which DC lied about the timeline of events. We were compensated $320 which we decided to use for our rent. (which we did have even though we did not stay in the apartment for almost all of July) I was promised $80 each day we were not in the unit by ML, was never followed through on. We are a family that would never harm a fly and were completely not in the wrong at any time for any of these events and were treated so miserably and wrong by ML and the other staff at northern pines office and corporate. I know alot of other peoples reviews I have seen have been completely opposite of mine, but they never had to deal with managment in the way we have. So I urge anyone looking to rent to proceed with caution and make sure you have renters insurance and ALWAYS have a paper trail for any encounters with management of any kind from Northern Pines. I hope you have pity on any future families with encounters like this. We are an innocent hard working family probably like yourself and your family and you completely robbed us of any hope or happiness we had for the last 3 months.
