The attached photo is of the trash from the garage left by the previous tenant. It was only removed after Gerenza was cited by the City of Minneapolis. If that hadn't happened, I'm convinced it would still be there today. Sadly, this was only the beginning of our terrible experience with this company.

While they successfully rented my property for 5 years, when my renters moved out without notice,…read moreit took them over 2 weeks to realize this. Two weeks that my property was unattended. I received an abatement order from the city, as well as it being investigated for a potential abandonment situation. Emails and phone calls were not returned. Work that I requested being done after the tenants left was not arranged. I then had to remit payment myself, as Gerenza Properties failed to do so. After being promised that I would received the security deposit to cover the payments, I had to file an insurance claim against Gerenza Properties when I hadn't received it (or any communication) a month later. Be aware that there is currently only 1 part time staff member at Gerenza Properties, and the owner/president no longer lives in Minnesota. So if you are hoping for a hands on approach, look elsewhere. (March 6, 2017)

I am a landlord and have been using ProRealty as my property management company for just over the…read morepast year. I cannot say enough good things about the service and quality they have provided to me as a landlord. I was with a different property management company (that I will not name here) for 8.5 years and got horrible service. Very poor vetting of tenants. No help going after unpaid rent. No help enforcing lease provisions. The prior company was awful. After getting zero support from the prior company to evict a tenant for being multiple months late on rent and for having a marijuana farm in the basement, I made the switch to ProRealty after vetting about a half-dozen other companies, including reference checks. Night and day difference! The staff from Pro is professional, timely in communication, there when I need them. When there are maintenance issues, Pro handles it and only reaches out to me if it is above a pre-agreed upon threshold. When maintenance has been needed, their contractors do good work and it has been very fairly priced. I've only had one set of tenants with Pro, but the vetting was phenomenal. Three young professionals who left the house in immaculate condition upon their move out. And Pro had new tenants ready to go in less than a week and a half after the previous tenants moved out. Having Pro Realty manage my property for me is the closest this rental has ever been to "mailbox money". My wife even shared that she almost forgot we owned a rental given how little we've had to do with it in the past year. Yes, Pro is more expensive than the other company, but not by much. And I am getting so much more value for my management fee than I ever did from the prior company.

Peggy is responsive, knowledgeable, and exhibits a passionate understanding of residents' concerns as she applies the rules and regulations of the HOA. Within the past year there was a new resident who was receiving accusatory comments from residents, and then after receiving a formal advisory message from Peggy, the resident asked me what was going on, why was she being singled out. She had only recently moved in and she was so upset that she wanted to just pack up and move out. I talked to Peggy and asked her to have a conversation with the resident. Peggy did so in a compassionate yet rule-oriented manner. In fact within a few months' that resident ran for and was elected to the Board. On a second occasion within the past two months I personally was aided by Peggy after I filed a petition for waiver to the Board. I felt certain members of the Board were allowing the petition to fail, not on its merits, but because the deadline for a decision was looming and that would mean the petition would be allowed to die without being heard. I contacted Peggy for a ruling. She listened to my reasoning and realized immediately that the Board was indeed required to formally meet to hear the petition, or else risk facing liability. She was able to drill right down through the emotional rhetoric to the heart of the matter, requiring the Board to follow the rules of procedure. I'm not certain how many other properties for which Peggy has responsibility but it is reassuring and fortunate for us that Peggy is our Community Association Manager.

Mr. Mark Gettinger helped me in finding a great deal in Minnesota (I am living in the West Coast)…read more He also explained me in detail about the required process and paper work and prepared an offer that helped in competing with other multiple buyers and getting a right price for my new condo purchase. In addition, he communicated with the condo association and provided all required documents for set up the HOA payments on time. Moreover, he suggested to do the Mobile closing ( the notary came to my home for signing the closing paper in the closing date) which saved my time and $$$ money because I did not need to fly to Minnesota just for the closing. Mr.Mark Gettinger has provided an outstanding customer service. He commutated with my Closing company and Lender directly when I needed the information's clarification ( especially, the specific legal terminology). Furthermore, all the paper work and earning money sending were done electronically-it was so easy and accurate as well as saving a lot of my time and energy in this busy life. In Sum, the closing was done on time, and my Lender told me that they were impressed how Mr. Mark Gettinger was able to manage very professionally the condo purchase ( which is required more knowledge and documentation than purchasing a single home) and also for a Buyer who is living in the different state. I am recommending Mr. Mark Gettinger as a trustful, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and professional Real Estate Agent.

I've lived here for two years and I'll never rent from Goldmark again. This property is huge over…read more400 units. They've done a ton of illegal stuff. But I was so drained living here I couldn't stand up. Here's a list of all things and this is being honest. Maintenance is terrible they kept me locked out of my garage for over a month and that's illegal to do so. I got back into my garage 2 days before my lease ended. They made false promises everyday saying it would be done that day but wasn't and wouldn't pick up their phone when I called. Sewage would back flow from our bathtub, emergency maintenance was okay but it never got fixed correctly and the dude had his butt crack out in my living room. My whole two years of issues the bathtub always back-flowed. First week I moved in an old guy asked what unit I lived in. What a creep. There's small business in the garages where guys fix people's cars and they are all over the driving path to park they're on the ground fixing a new car everyday. Then they park it in the lot where no one else can park. So not only do you have to dodge and be careful from hitting these dudes there is limited parking cuz of them. We had a pipe burst during the winter and it flooded the entire bottom floor including my unit. I was awake till midnight moving my stuff around. Some of my stuff was damaged from the water. They never apologize to us. The girl next to me her entire unit was flooded. It took months for them to even fix the damages in the hall way. They ripped up my carpet and hung it on the railing in MY closet with big fans hitting it. When I asked about mold they said "our guys are really good at what they do" girl they didn't do anything special just tore up the carpet and hung it. The water came thru the walls too so the walls are damaged and they never fixed it. The bugs are insane I constantly had ants and flying ants. They called in someone to spray our unit and then once he was done he asked if our unit was the one with bed bugs. That's what made me call it. A week later the same dude entered my apartment without notice and I was asleep on my couch. Which is also illegal. The property managers are slum lords they might dress nice but they don't communicate to their tenants. They are lazy and no where to be found when there was a flood. I brought up the unit above us was letting their dog piss on their deck which got onto my patio and smelled bad they didn't believe me even tho I sent them pictures. The noise was the biggest thing. Blaring music from so many units you could never be at peace. You couldn't open ur windows cuz everyone had a little party going on with the pool on their patios the people above us drove me nuts I couldn't sleep. Police raided apartments, people stealing laundry, towing cars for fun, trying to make u pay late fees even tho you paid rent on time. They don't care about u they just want ur money. They sit behind their desk and don't pick up the phone cuz they can't handle confrontation. Jordan was the only homie who actually tried to fix things. but the maintenance didn't know how to fix it. They need to hire actual guys who know what to do. They just put bandaids on the issues. There's a ton of biohazards here they fail to maintain. Their property is full of trash and they have recycling but it's just another dumpster. I was always on edge from something new happening everyday. I finally escaped this place and I would never recommend it. Run while u can. Save yourself.
