    They took over the property less than a month ago and have since allowed the garbage to go weeks…read morewithout pick up, offering to send maintenance to take it until they figure out the issue but never sending them. They also do not communicate well. Paul will speak to you like a subordinate if allowed to. Small things like replacing blinds and or routine maintenance of grounds becomes an issue and you will be chastised for reminding them that request have been marked as completed but never followed through with. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere. No one deserves to be spoken to with such disdain and then be expected to pay rent. You will have to remind Paul that you do not work for him and even if you did, he doesn't have the right to treat you like a plebian. My electricity was shut off due to failure to pay it, and it is included in my rent. My worries about my insulin and food were too annoying to Paul perhaps making them pay for it may give him some perspective.

I think I get a great deal for my apartment and I'm very happy with it. The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is because every time I had to go into their office they make me wait far too long. They start making phone calls and dealing with other stuff before they handle the customers that are there in the office (even when I have an appointment!).

    I currently reside at one of their units in Rochester. I rented with them before in 2021-2022 in…read more14607 as a young 20 something. Now with some life experience, and after this past summer opened up for me to move into a space to be able to have more independence with my children, I looked to Maison because they were familiar and from what I remember, decent. Maison has its moments. They are prompt sometimes, and other times not. If you are facing a hard financial time as myself and even dealing with eviction/housing court, they won't let up even if you have a case worker or social worker communicate with them on any assistance youve applied for. They have no issues tacking on the fees. (Nearly $500 for their attorney fees & for mailing paperwork... not caring the slightest of your financial hardship or situation). I'm in 14608 now. I had no issues in 2021-2022 as far as pests, infestations go. But the house that the unit was in always was dusty, lighting was dark, smelled like smoke (cigarettes, weed), some tenants would hang out on the porch of the house with questionable people who didn't live there, so that could get uncomfortable at times, dont think I ever saw anyone go and clean the laundry units there in the entire year I lived there, either... but they were free. This time around, this apartment building has had roaches, mice, the garbage outside is always scattered just attracting this type of activity. They will have Maison workers show up every now and then with no keys, (they expect you to let them in?) the exterminator, John, is great, but he has even said - because of the area... and the property's lack of responsibility... only so much he can do. Maintenance is decent, he came and fixed a light bulb, replaced some stuff on the stove/oven (that is still just old and needs to be replaced completely in my opinion), as well as my keypad. Usually in and out and will update you on the work. One thing that has appealed to me is how often they have housekeeping come by to clean the hallways, I've seen reviews complaining about issues in their rental spaces, but as far as I've known for the past 4 months at this unit, they have had workers come by pretty consistently to upkeep the hallways, work on open units, and repaint the walls. Now they just need people cleaning up the garbage outside consistently! Don't think they do much about their laundry either at this building. I had another tenant tell me he used it once and it made his clothes oily so he just goes to the laundromat now. At this building, not free like the other, $2 for washing & drying. Depending on where you do your clothes, could be bout the same prices or less. You pick your poison. As a single mom, with little help, it's easiest to stay close to home as much as possible. Their boiling system for heat is so inconsistent too. Never had issues from what I remember in 14607. My unit in 14607 was $685 when I first started living here and by the end of my lease it had jumped to around $715 ish (I think) from what I remember. My current unit is $895 in 14608. Maison is affordable. If you can't afford much, like myself, you kind of have to bite the bullet and expect for some things to be imperfect, but on the other hand, they are a business, and still need to act accordingly and keep up with their units and properties ensuring they are safe, healthy and fair for their tenants to live in despite how they feel about them. People, before profit, Maison. That being said, there is much room for improvement, but on the other hand, for their prices, and areas of the city you choose to live in, there are worse properties that won't even acknowledge your maintenance requests or emails. They at least do. They also consider relatively "low" credit scores. Mine was 650s I believe when I applied... and they consider I think as low as early 600s, which NOT many properties do. Also, yes. Their lease and application process is questionable in retrospect. (You pay $20 to apply which opens you up to view an apt you may not even like..., you're responsible for THEIR attorney fees if you fall on hard times and can't even pay rent..., etc.) Hope this helps.

    I have been waiting to write this for four years. Maison Properties is quite literally the worst…read morerental property company you could possibly rent from. During our four year stay with them, not by choice mind you, but because we could not find anything sooner, they broke our lease a number of times. We went without heat from September to the beginning of January because, even though they were informed at the end of the season in March that they were going to need to replace their boiler due to the amount of gas leaks the tenants had to evacuate. Instead, they neglected the warning and refused to do anything to fix the lack of heat in the middle of winter until the city of Rochester got deeply involved. They lied to us about covering heat in rent in their listing of the apartment and are continuing to lie on their recent listing of our old space. We had a giant, leaking hole in our ceiling that took them over a year to FULLY repair. It got to the point that mushrooms were growing out of the ceiling because they just would not come and begin to fix it. We had a wasp infestation that they promised they'd deal with and then never did. A pipe connected to the boiler burst in our bedroom and ruined so many of our belongings in March of this year. They told us they could not repair it until May when boiler season over. Well late July comes around and they still haven't fixed it. The city came to do an inspection and Maison got flagged because of the burst pipe. All of a sudden, NOW they want to get this pipe taken care of, almost three months after they promised it would be done. Management is a joke, no one understands anything that's going on and they just will not communicate with each other. It is genuinely like pulling teeth to have any repairs made or talk to someone who's not just a receptionist. The only people on the entire team who were helpful were Hannah and Brian. Hannah went out of her way to help and work with us when we had some issues with the bank account we used to pay rent. Brian isn't even really with the general team, he's in charge of the moving out process, and he made the process so incredibly smooth. Unfortunately, these two great employees aren't enough to justify living in this dump. Avoid Maison at all costs.

    This company is very unprofessional and running scams. I identified a property they had listed…read moreright after it posted. It was in my neighbor hood and I wanted to try and rent it. after contacting the company, they told me they only take investment of $20 in a money order upfront along with the application. I did what they asked even thought every single person I consulted with said it was a scam and you should never pay anything up front. I dropped off my application and money order, I verified the security check via email and received an invitation to see the property. iI asked for a couple dates and times on the following Sat - was told they don't work weekends, asked for Friday afternoon ( two days after I submitted and 1 day after the invitation to view property) I was told they were too busy but the following week was wide open, I sent back a not telling them to send me three times on Monday they could show me the property and I would once again accommodate them and pick a time that was accommodating them. I asked for them to send me more picture them since noe of them showed signs of a refrigerator. I got a nasty note telling me I was rude and good luck with my rental search - OMG It was a scam all along.. This company should not be in the rental business or management business. They have probably stole nmy identity as well. HORRIBLE Service Delivery and honesty - DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM THEY TOOK MONEY in the form of a Cashiers Check. - a PICTURE OF MY ID texted to propertymanager@updegraffgroup.com- AN APPLICATION and PAYSTUBS - Handed in at the desk of their downtown office located at 100 Liberty pole way - all prior to SHOWING ME THE RENTAL. I was asked via text if I wanted to see the listing, I sent back a yes and then all the mess above occured. I AM MORE THAN QUALIFIED AND THEY ARE FULL of EXCUSES or Completely Ignorant on CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HOW COMPETITIVE AND TIMELY the RENTAL MARKET is, This is just a horrible example of customer service and honesty DO NOT DO BUSINESS with THESE PEOPLE. YOU SHOULD NEVER GIVE MONEY UP FRONT for ANYONE. I FEEL BAD if the listing is LEGIT the Property owners are getting the shaft. The good news is I received 5 housing offers this weekend all because they were slow un-helpful and dishonest. I wanted that location but I certainly wouldn't trust them going forward. Bye Bye. i will be reporting their business tactics to the State of NY

The apartment was still occupied by tenants who had their belongings out in the open (because it is their home, although they rent. Landlords seem to forget that). only 5 minutes into the showing, the 'landlord' was glued to her phone and ignoring potential tenants. Kind of like she said what she needed to say at first, then the quarter ran out of the jukebox. further, I watched people come in, BOLT to the bedrooms (without looking at the kitchen/living room) and say 'go go go' while rushing out the door. I'm more than positive that Kristin let people rob her tenants without checking who was there for the showing. several strangers had shown up in the time we were there and there's no way to keep track of everyone. this landlord should probably just go back to bartending. the entire experience was foreboding, and I recommend anyone to check out other reviews with similar experiences. seems to be a pattern.

It started with electrical outages here and there that were initially quickly resolved. When I re-signed my lease a year later it got a lot worse. In July whenever I would use my microwave it would trip the circuit and I had no access to the breaker. It took on 3 occasions 4-5 days to flip a breaker. Causing me to lose 100s in groceries. Essentially being without power for 3 weeks with a day or 2 in between outages. I was told that my microwave was defective and replaced it. The microwave was not the issue as these outages kept happening. They then replaced the breaker. I was told by someone on their maintenance team "This building needs to be rewired but they are too cheap to do it." These outages would come once a month sometimes twice. Eventually, they rewired it so that the lights in my bathroom and bedroom don't work but it would prevent my appliances from overloading the circuit. The furnace died this last December for a week. In one of the coldest weeks of the winter. This past week, the whole building has had no hot water and while fixing it a pipe burst causing my living room and the entrance way to the building to flood. I have requested some sort of relief to these situations that have cost me a lot of money. I couldn't even get an apology from the property manager. Don't rent from Wilco, they don't maintain their properties, don't care about their tenants and don't deserve your money. Save yourself money and headaches, and find a better option for your rental needs.
