I've made many investing decisions over the last ten years, from land to cabins to single family…read morehomes, stocks, options.... And never have I made a more detrimental financial mistake that is as bad as choosing ascend to manage my property. While I can't discuss some things in their entirety -- it has been a nightmare, an absolutely gross oversight of their duties that's costing me and there's no end in sight. The staff will not call you, or answer about 60% of emails, the owner thinks it's beneath him to reach out personally to try and be helpful. Money has been lost and mismanaged 2-3 times now and no single month feels consistent. I never know what's happening with my home, the condition of it, and now I'm getting hit with legal fees and have a lien on my property from the delinquency of Ascend not have utilities properly switched. If you're an ascend client- check your ledgers carefully. If you're not--- run don't walk. Now I'm being threatened by them with retaliatory billing practices because I am not keeping quiet anymore , try any other company besides them.

We toured a couple of apartments in Old Town managed by MREM, looking for a 2-bedroom. One of the…read moreplaces was listed as a 2-bedroom, at 2-bed price, but when we see the place, one of the rooms was only accessible through another "bedroom." It was a living room with a door, not legally considered a bedroom in most places, not to mentioned it was way more cramped than the AI-generated photos implied, and it had a stale cigarette smell after presumably being empty for two years (as far as I could tell from the listing dates and price changes on Zillow). Every one of their apartments looks the same: dingy, outdated bedrooms with the bare minimum (toilet, stove, etc) going for the prices of legitimate apartments, using AI photos to "imagine" what the spaces could look like. Get corporations out of housing in Maine if they're going to just buy up all the properties to bleed us of our rent.

There was a past due water bill with the Town that they never took care of so I could not get the water into my name. After I had moved out they finally paid the bill. I did receive a bill and paid for the quarter I lived there. 6 months later I received another water bill and the Town will not stop sending me bills until the new tenant puts the water into their name. I can not reach anyone. I have called and emailed. No response. While I was a tenant ,the smoke alarms would go off if I so much as ran the toaster. Someone did come out to look at the detectors but there was no fix. It seemed like they were hard wired as when one went off, they all went off. I tried turning off the breaker labeled smoke detectors, nothing happened. I even took batteries out and they still went off. The lack of response from the rental office is extremely frustrating. I would not recommend going through this company for a rental.

I am incredibly disappointed, and frustrated with how we (the tenants) were treated by Penbay…read moreProperty Management LLC, Dan and Ashley Burpee specifically. Penbay is based out of Bucksport, but manages one property in Orono, ME which is where the problems stem from. Dan and Ashley do not like driving to Orono which spelled disaster for us (the incoming tenants). They did not conduct an inspection of the house after the old tenants moved out. The house was filthy saddling us with cleaning which involved pulling old cigarette butts out of window sills and the radiator. Additionally, Penbay did not note the state of affairs in which the house was left for us (more on this later). During our stay at 10 Cedar St we were asked to do room inspections for exiting roommates and report on the room conditions (something Penbay should have done). On top of that, they neglected to fix the fire alarm and blamed the tenants for it. They refused to deal with a rat problem which posed a health hazard to the tenants. Penbay even went as far as to accuse us of lying about it. During the oil tank replacement they scheduled, the contractors failed to remove the old oil tank. The oil remaining in the tank evaporated and seeped into the house producing an overwhelming smell. When we moved out of the house we were charged for a scraped bathroom floor, and a dirty fan vent. Had they done any kind of inspection before we moved in they would have noted both of these things as previously existing. The scraping on the bathroom floor was due to the severe slant of the flooring, not an issue pertaining to the tenants. The fan vent was caked in several years worth of lint so saddling us with it was lazy. It should be noted that we made an attempt to clean it but the cover was sealed to the ceiling. And finally, we were told on several occasions, after moving out, that our security deposits were in the mail. This was not the case. They missed the 30 day deadline after the expiration of the lease. We were lied to, mistreated, and disrespected. I am happy to have rid any obligation and connection to Dan and Ashley along with Penbay Property Management.
