    A package of mine delivered to the lobby. Neighbors had to make sure they didn't want it first.
    Anthony M.

    Horrible experience. Lived in laporte building for years, SO excited to leave. Neighbors leave grabage bags in the hallway Paint chipping everywhere Carpet is filthy Most of the building smells like weed and urine Got BED BUGS from the hallways carpet (Had to throw away pretty much everything, slept 3 houra a night for a month,no compensation let alone compassion from realty company) Gang member living in same building who enjoys shooting his gun in the city lot Tons of bad activity in city lot directly across the street ,gunshots weekly Yvonne "realtor" only keeps in contact with you if shes about to get your signature. If you have signed your lease, she is now the pope and you dont get to talk to the pope, peasant. Seriously fake and unprofessional. All correspondence we ever do get is sarcastic that's too bad type nonsense. Repairs when actually done, are cheap, untimely and not please to look at. No hot water pressure, wont fix cause the building is ancient Tried to evict me for having a dog. I dont have a dog. Company saw someone else on their camera and sent me an eviction notice.. Real nice right. Had to go all the way to Evanston to make them realize hey that footage is from the WRONG BUILDING and thats not me. I could go on and on but i have some glorious packing to do! So long and bad riddance wesley/yvonne!

    I normally don't review places, however this management company has turned my life into a living nightmare. I visited their apartment building 4447 N lawndale ave and fell in love with the unit available... It was updated, bright, good size, and affordable. I received my keys a week later and when I entered the apartment I was quickly greeted by COCKROACHES. I called the maintenance department and was informed they were going to take care of it before I moved in. Two days later I moved ALL my things into the apartment after inspecting it for roaches. After my family had finished moving me in and left I opened the fridge to see a giant roach crawling around. I immediately left and had to arrange for friends and family to come back that SAME night to help me move out. When I went back that evening I was horrified there were cockroaches everywhere more than I could ever imagine. I had to quarantine all of my belongings in my parents garage so we can make sure we do not bring roaches back with us. After fumigating everything twice I went to begin checking my items for roaches so I can begin bringing the items I need for daily living inside and sure enough in the first bin I checked I found 3 cockroaches that managed to get in my things from the short 5 hours my belongings were there. Not only has this been an inconvenience but I lost so much just from this company's negligence or out right shady business ethics. I have had to throw out anything that cockroaches could hide in and potentially lay eggs in the list includes, fans, vacuum cleaners, multiple rugs, and so on. PLEASE PLEASE be careful when renting from this company. I will be dealing with this issue for months as I try to rid my items of roaches just from a short 5 hour stay in their apartment.

    We had so many bad experiences with accounting, responsiveness, customer service, capital improvement and routine maintenance - that we were beginning to lose hope.

    Overall, primarily influenced by the outcome of our search / purchase (the most important measure),…read morewe were very dissatisfied with the overall service from Pam and Wendy. Pam and Wendy did give us a significant amount of their time and energy over the months it took us to complete the purchase of our new home, which was greatly appreciated. That being said, due to circumstances that could and should have been avoided, we now find ourselves in a discouraging and extremely costly situation as we work through several issues that should have been identified through the home search, due diligence and inspection. We trusted the inspector Pam and Wendy recommended to us would be thorough with a critical focus on protecting us from major issues - this was clearly not the case, and the shortcomings of the inspection and related negotiations have left us having to pay tens of thousands of dollars out-of-pocket to remedy. On a related note, the 'experts' Pam and Wendy recommended during the inspection/attorney review period were equally poor, particularly a roofer that gave us an estimate for repairs that we now know was 95%+ underestimated (as proven by four subsequent estimates for the same work), and gave us a false sense of security in terms of what we had ahead of us. Maybe the most unsettling part of the experience in hindsight (which should have raised our flags in the moment) was when Pam and Wendy clearly put the best interest of the sellers ahead of ours (their client) in the context of pressuring us to sign the deal on a condensed timeline so the sellers would not have to relist the property. Finally, neither Pam nor Wendy made themselves or a legal representative available to represent us in person during our closing, and did not give us a heads up that we would be there alone, leaving us with a fairly sour taste on what should have been a celebratory day. Overall, as we continue to work through issues daily and try to recoup our losses, we do not feel our best interests were prioritized and feel the advice from Pam, Wendy and their recommended subject experts was critically underwhelming and insufficient.

    From the moment we met with Pam and Wendy we knew we were in great hands. My husband and I were in…read morethe process of trying to decipher whether or not we wanted to take on a big project, or something more turnkey. Pam and Wendy differentiated themselves from the beginning because they knew the estimated costs of various projects, and where we would get a significant return on investment should we decide to sell our home in the future. We truly felt that they had our best interests in mind, and were always available to consult on various ideas. When we heard about a home coming on the market in Evanston, Pam did not hesitate to reach out to her contacts and ensure that we were the first people to get into see. Once we knew this was the home for us, Pam and Wendy knew how to navigate the negotiations with multiple offers, and her competitive yet sensible drive kept us calm and focused throughout the stressful process of buying a home in a pandemic. After the house was ours, Pam and Wendy's work did not end. They connected us with their favorite vendors for roofing, carpeting, lighting and more. They ensured we were connected with the best lawyer and loan-officer and were on-call to help us navigate several unforeseen circumstances throughout the process. We truly feel that our "forever home" today, would not have been ours without this incredible team of professionals assisting us throughout the process. We can't recommend them enough!

    This review is specifically about deceptive marketing practices by @properties more than it is…read moreabout the @properties agent I hired to sell my home, although she too is culpable for this behavior. Frankly, I am upset and feel deceived by the whole process and can only hope future homeowners will not be put in the same position as me. TL;DR: If you are listing your home with @properties, INSIST that the commission split between the buyer's and seller's agents be written into your listing agreement. Buried in the very fine print of the @properties standard listing agreement it says that @properties can decide the commission split between the agents. Even I missed it, and it was only at the closing table that I even caught wind of the consequences of this. My property sat on the market for 10 weeks accruing market time with a below average number of showings. For those who may not be aware: When a property is listed on the MLS, the listing agent inputs what the commission to the buyer's agent will be. This information is absolutely secret to the general public and not viewable to anyone without MLS access, so you are completely putting your faith in the listing agent and trusting they are holding your best interests. As we all know, agent commissions drive showings and ultimately sales. Whether it would be considered ethical or not, a property listed with a lower commission to a buyer's agent (e.g., 1%) will result in fewer showings. (Please tell any agent who disagrees with this statement to switch to a flat fee structure instead). As I found out the hard way, my property was listed with a full 1% commission in my agent's favor (i.e., not an equal commission split). In other words, a lower commission to the buyer's agent, and plausibly responsible for the longer market time and lower sale price. While the "net" commission to me as the seller was the same, had this been *disclosed* upfront, I would never have hired @properties to represent me. To my dismay, this is a widespread practice with @properties. After speaking with Don Shea the @properties managing broker, he encourages "all of his agents" to list properties in this manner with this type of split commission in a 1% favor to his agents. While this practice puts more money in the @properties pockets (and may be even justifiable in some instances), the homeowner has zero visibility or knowledge of this practice. The commission split should be disclosed upfront because it is both the ethical thing to do as well as consequential to the homeowner with their sale.

We are thrilled with our home in Wilmette. Shelley let us know which blocks more African-American families are moving into so we would be at lower risk of our property value going down. I'm sorry, but this is a big investment and these things make a difference. We are investing a lot in the New Trier High School district. We moved here from Dallas so we just wouldn't have known about these things without Shelley's help. We are so happy with our new home!

The website told me I would receive a call from a representative to confirm my appointment. A week went by and I still didn't receive a call, so I contacted them. I spoke with Beth (I believe) who told me I didn't receive a call because the Evanston agents only cover the Skokie-Rogers Park-Evanston area. According to her, they don't want their agents "stepping on each others territory." She listed off a few other excuses that she didn't seem too confident about before I decided to end the call. Am I wrong for assuming all of your locations operate under the company? It would've been nice if this were stated on your site or if someone could've contacted me to let me know. Or at the very least forward my info to the Lakeview office. Instead I waited a whole week when I could have used that time to search myself. I spoke with Beth again today and I just don't think this lady is cut out for client interactions. In short, she rushed me through the phone call (which was only 3 minutes long) and kept cutting me off. At one point she even said "I have another call on hold." I have an appointment set up through Bernard at the Lakeview Location, which sounds much more promising. I'll still go to my Evanston appointment and hope that I'll have a better in-person experience.
