Maple Leaf Property Management handed the keys to a tenant prior to their check clearing, and…read moreallowed those squatters to disrupt the neighborhood for virtually all of 2026. As verified by the property owner, the squatters have paid ZERO in rent while causing damage to the home, including flooding the interior of the home, while Maple Leaf Property Management has failed to evict and remove the squatters. This started in January and has continued as of the publication of this website. This page is a review and my personal testimonial with our experience having our neighbors property managed by Maple Leaf Property Management. As of this writing and to the best of my knowledge, Maple Leaf Property Management has not pursued criminal proceedings for the squatters writing a bad check despite it being a Class C felony in Washington State. They have had multiple court dates for the eviction, and have failed to remove the squatters despite their criminal unlawful issuance of a bank check. I am the father of two living with my family on 88th St near Stone in Seattle. The failings of Maple Leaf Property Management have had a profound impact on the peace and quality of life of my family. We have requested that Maple Leaf Property Management take steps to mitigate the impact on our household, but it has fallen on deaf ears. The property with the squatters has a high amount of traffic nightly between midnight and 4 AM. Based on attire, I am fairly certain that prostitution is involved. We also see people coming and going during those hours on scooters and wearing backpacks. I would guess that the distribution of drugs is involved, with the possibility that they are also reconstituting drugs on the property. There are dozens of different people coming and going from the property each week, with the highest activity being between midnight and 4 AM. It feels like we are living under siege in our own home. We have had to modify our schedule to make sure that our children do not come or go after dark, and have someone available to escort them in and out. This is entirely due to the failings of Maple Leaf Property Management. More details at https://mapleleafmgtsucks.com/

David has been our property manager for over 4 years, and he's been professional, efficient, and…read moreresponsive. To be transparent, we are property owners, so this review is from the owner's point of view. Having said that, he's been proactive in making sure the rental house is in a good shape, including regular annual maintenance. This is to ensure tenants get what they pay for. One thing David really stands out is his responsiveness and timely communications. Tips: believe it or not, best way to contact him is via email. He'll call me as soon as he's available whenever I ask him to call me via email. His email responses are mostly cryptic and straight to the point, and some folks may take that differently. But for us, we like his cut-to-the-chase, no-nonsense style. Believe us, we have had a different property manager before, and he may seem courteous, but his responsiveness and professionalism are not even close to David's.

David doesn't ignore hard problems but will take care of them right away. These problems were ignored for years by my previous property manager (also full-priced 10% but not half as worth the price).

If you are a property owner, avoid Brett Frosaker and his RBI Property Management/Realty Brokers…read morecompany at all cost. Brett waiting 64 days before notifying me of my tenant's notice to move out. Brett then waited an additional 10 days, a total of 74 days, to list my property for rent on August 10, 2025. Brett has been doing property management for decades, and was fully aware that the summer months of June and July are the prime months for leasing rental property, so that I could have already had a new tenant already in place for August if he had notified me in May when my tenant gave his notice to move out. This is a breach of his contractual fiduciary duties and negligence, resulting in months of financial losses in rental income. Stay as far away as you can from Brett and his unscrupulous company.

I know there are a lot of negative reviews, but I don't have any. I loved my apartment at The…read moreLowell and never had anything negative happen to me. At the time when I lived there, there was grocery store on the next block and a tiny connivence store around the corner. At times the neighborhood would get rowdy, but it definitely wasn't all night or every day. Never had management take my money or my belongings. I didn't have any bugs, because I kept my apartment spotless. My only complaint was that people kept pulling the fire alarm which was a bother, but that had more to do with people who threw parties where everyone was drunk. Now that it's been remodeled, I'd love to see what it looks like now.

DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!! Lowell Apartments or any owned by this "company"…read more THIS BUILDING IS A SCAM!!! Don't let the nice location and old charm sway you. They WILL take all your money, sanity, and belongings and make you feel crazy for wanting a clean and safe apartment. It would be your worst decision to move here. PLEASE TAKE MY WORD FOR IT!!! I am only giving 1 star because I have to and because the location and old charm are nice. However I was staying here for barely a month when I got BED BUGS!!! I have been going back and forth with them for months on that issue and other hot water and cleaning issues but gotten nowhere and now have to move out. I'll have to hope that the items I bring to my next spot are not infested and will lose items as well. I was hoping this place was going to work out as it seemed to have so much promise but allowing people to live in uninhabitable units and still asking them for rent is ridiculous. I can't wait to leave! UPDATE 1/11/22: I have left and lost many things but am so happy to be free. They treated me with such disrespect just for wanting a livable home. I have also now heard that there are issues with heat in the building and tenants are being encouraged to buy their own heaters and blankets. There also is still the issue of no hot water. Residents were told the issue would take longer than 24 hours to fix and it's not the first time people have had no access to hot water. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE Update March 2022: I moved out in December 2021 and in the spring I was checking my credit and found out that this place was trying to charge me $4500!!! I was never notified of this in any form (letter, call, email, text, in person) and there is no reason I should pay it. UPDATE 5/3/25: I have been disputing this charge with my credit companies for 2 years. But an article by the WSJ called 'Landlords Have a New Hardball Tactic: Tanking Your Credit Score' lets you know EXACTLY what Lowell is doing. They are trying to tank my score with a fake charge that I do not owe! I was literally told by the property manager that he was going to get an eviction notice for me if I did not leave (because I didn't want to live with BED BUGS, NO HEAT, NO HOT WATER, NO FRIDGE, and SLUDGE IN MY SINK!) So of course I packed up everything that I could and left!! Now have to live with that charge on my credit and hope it doesn't affect me. Also have to live without the many items I had to leave behind in that apartment because I could not clean all the bed bugs off of them. Lost family heirlooms and treasured antique furniture I had resorted myself. Please if I can only give one pice of advice for the rest of my life it would be to NEVER MOVE HERE!!!!
