Some property management and landlords disgust me..

Today I just got back from looking at apartment and townhome rentals in DeKalb, IL. A friend of mine is attending Grad School there and was looking at 2 and 3 bedroom places. The reason I am writing this is to say that from what I have seen I am disgusted at the property management companies and landlords. The properties were absolutely filthy on the inside and the outside had roofs that looked as if they hadn't been replaced in 50 years. Being a landlord and property manager albeit my company is strictly commercial (retail and office space currently) when a tenant has an issue we respond immediately with a solution and as well we value our properties and keep them in immaculate shape. Appearance is EVERTHING and really leaves a lasting impression upon potential renters as well as the community as a whole. If you are a property manager or Landlord keeps your properties manicured and cleaned as if you yourself lived in then.

Joshua Dorkin it really is a shame. I view real estate as more than just brick and mortar. To see others destroy as if you will "art" really is upsetting. But on the positive note one day these properties will be available at great prices for investors like us to come in and give it a new lease on life!
