Daniel Management Group (DMG)

Experiencia fantástica: DMG maintained our building well, were very communicative, and had reasonable pricing. We are so disappointed that they recently sold our building! But thank you DMG for setting the standard that other companies need to rise to. Special shoutout to Milot in the office and Scot Morton who showed us our unit.

Experiencia fantástica: Georgia Malone is a fantastic property manager professional, responsive, and easy to work with. She communicates clearly and handles issues quickly. I really appreciate her constant support and consistency.

Experiencia fantástica: Dan A, the maintenance guy has been awesome, he has resolved any issues promptly and effectively every single time.

Experiencia fantástica: We had a fantastic experience touring with Scot! He was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to answer all our questions about the building. He was very welcoming and made the application process feel transparent and easy. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Cesar the maintenance guy for the Grove on Grand apartments is great. Very friendly, quick, and can fix any problem I’ve had. Very much appreciated !!

Experiencia fantástica: Dan with maintenance is incredibly helpful and professional, any issues are taken care of in a timely manner.

Experiencia negativa: From the leasing agent and numerous on site managers from day 1 I have had nothing but misleading/lies information . I am extremely disappointed and the management team is not willing to help or settle on the proper solution. I would highly recommend to look elsewhere or be very careful if you are considering this property.

Experiencia fantástica: The maintenance was quick respond very nice and helpful . Thank you Mr Dan Arnold!

Experiencia fantástica: Lived here for 4 years. Great experience especially since Alvin and the new management company took over a couple years back

Experiencia negativa: Worst property manager ever. Inefficient. Does not communicate. Won’t help you remove erroneous charges. Won’t answer a phone call. Basically feels like you deal with chat AI robot. A proper human touch would help.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience from start to finish working with DMG and specifically Alvin at The Residence at Glen Tower Center. Knowledgeable, attentive, communicative, and much more. I would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Our family have lived in many apartment complex’s throughout the last 10 years and this has been our favorite one. The amenities are great as well as the modern updated bathrooms and kitchens. The biggest difference is the people who work here. The property manager, Georgia Malone, is wonderful and incredibly easy to work with. She is genuine, approachable, and makes the entire experience feel straightforward and stress-free. It’s clear she truly cares about the residents and the community. Lupe and his son Alex handle maintenance for the building, and they have been outstanding. When we were moving in, they both immediately stopped what they were doing to help us unload everything from our U-Haul, which made a huge difference during a stressful day. They are responsive, kind, and take great pride in keeping the property in excellent shape. Their level of care and willingness to help truly stands out. Very grateful for our time there and would totally recommend. Even with young kids!!

Experiencia fantástica: DMG recently took over from my old leasing company and it is a night and day difference. Not only do they send clear and timely communication, but they genuinely treat tenants like people. After an incident within my building, Brittan took the time to listen and advocate for me. Even checked up to see if there were any other ways they could support. It's rare you get an area manager who will go the extra mile. I'm so appreciative for Brittan and DMG!

Experiencia fantástica: I had Cesar come over today after I reported my furnace not working this morning. He contacted me very quickly to get some details, and let me know he would head over once he was finished with the morning maintenance real quests. When he arrived he got right to work and walked me through the troubleshooting he was doing. He did also show me how to work the water heater just I case. Cesar was able to get to the root of the problem, and made sure everything worked before stepping out. He was very polite and professional and I am extremely grateful for his help. Would certainly recommend him.

Experiencia fantástica: Everything has been great so far. Efrain is an outstanding person and a great property manager. He’s always willing to help whenever needed and makes living here a positive experience. No complaints at all

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve had nothing but great things so far to say about DMG. Efrain is super responsive and easy to work with.

Experiencia fantástica: I moved into River Grove Station in 2025 and couldn’t be happier with DMG and the property manager, Caroline. The building and my unit are well maintained, comfortable, and modern, and the location is incredibly convenient with easy access to transportation. Overall, it’s been a great living experience, and I highly recommend DMG to anyone looking to rent.

Experiencia fantástica: Omg I had such an amazing time working with DMG and Scot specifically! I found the place and less than a week late viewed it and signed a lease! After having such a hard time with apartment management companies in Chicago, it was such a pleasant relief to work with Scot and DMG. Highly recommended!!

Experiencia fantástica: Angel the maintenance man, was great. Very responsive and efficient.

Experiencia fantástica: Maintenance was super nice and helpful. Fixed everything quickly.

Experiencia fantástica: Angel has been a great help with maintenance no matter what problem.

Experiencia fantástica: Angel is the most attentive and caring repairman on site and we’re grateful for his timely response to all of our needs. Thank you Angel!

Experiencia fantástica: Angel is the best. So quick to address any maintenance concerns we have, extremely communicative and overall fabulous to work with!

Experiencia fantástica: Our maintenance man is the best! Very personable, respectful, and finds the problems immediately

Experiencia fantástica: Have been living in the building for almost a year and luckily haven’t had any issues. I’ve had to enter a few maintenance requests for small things and Cesar has been great at taking care of any issues that come up. He’s quick to a fix a broken outlet or any thing that arises.

Experiencia fantástica: excellent & timely service from Angel at Verdant apartments in the city! for sure always here and when you call for repairs or maintenance knows what he is doing!

Experiencia fantástica: Joe polombo did a great job with maintenance everything works. Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: Maintenance man, Joe Palumbo, did a fantastic job repairing the heat, luckily just in time. We appreciated that. Thank you for your efficiency.

Experiencia fantástica: We wanted to say thank you so much for your incredible work to Joe Palumbo

Experiencia fantástica: Dan Arnold came by and repaired our washing machine. He did an awesome job and his communication and kindness always goes above and beyond! Thanks so much!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing maintenance service by Donald Kraus! Always goes above and beyond.

Experiencia fantástica: Charles Rath is an incredibly helpful maintenance worker in our building and always gives prompt attention to urgent matters! Thank you Charles!

Experiencia fantástica: Charles Rath has been wonderful in assisting with any maintenance concerns!

Experiencia negativa: If you want another property management group that ignores your maintenance requests, definitely consider Daniel Property Management!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the best employee that Riverrock has had. He has always went out of his way to make our living there the best it could be. He would make a great manager if he wasn’t already the best maintenance man. Thank you for making my stay there so much better!

Experiencia fantástica: Living her for 5 years. Great community, great management. Every maintenance issue is answered promptly. Dan Arnold very efficient and speedy. Very polite. Takes care of the issue promptly. I have to say once it is fixed it stays fixed. I don’t have to keep calling.

Experiencia fantástica: Great service! Efrain was very helpful, professional, and made everything easy from start to finish. He explained things clearly and was always patient with my questions. Really appreciate the smooth experience. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: We have been renting at Prospect Place for about a month now and Georgia, the property manager has been wonderful. During our move in process we experienced some bumps in the road but Georgia was there to help us every step of the way. She was attentive, quick to respond and listened thoughtfully to our needs, while also making herself available after hours and during weekends if we had questions or concerns. She is an amazing addition to the Prospect Place and Daniel Management Group Team.

Experiencia fantástica: Georgia has been a great property manager. She made the move-in process stress-free and was really flexible working with my schedule. She is quick to respond and helps take care of things as soon as possible. Definitely appreciate how easy she’s made living with DMG.

Experiencia fantástica: Georgia Malone was absolutely fantastic before during and after my move-in experience. I’m blessed and so happy to be a tenant now at Prospect Placa.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently moved into my new apartment and the experience has been excellent from start to finish. The leasing process was very clear, with every step explained in detail so there were no surprises. Communication from our property manager Georgia Malone was quick and responsive - any questions I had were answered right away, which made the whole process stress-free. The move-in itself went smoothly, and everything was well-prepared when I arrived. Overall I really appreciate how seamless and organized the experience was.

Experiencia fantástica: Diana is an outstanding property manager at Arthaus 2828. She’s responsive, professional, and genuinely cares about the residents. Any issues are handled quickly and communication is always clear. Living here is a much better experience thanks to her!

Experiencia fantástica: I recently toured with Diana Camacho and it was an amazing experience! She was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the tour enjoyable. The community itself is exactly what I’m looking for as I plan for an apartment after graduation.

Experiencia fantástica: Beautiful complex! Pool excellent, Front office is nice and Diana was helpful and very friendly. The units are perfect it gives Hotel stay but your home!! Definitely will try to rent one.

Experiencia fantástica: Diana is an outstanding apartment manager! She’s professional, helpful, and always goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly. Couldn’t ask for better service.

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Diana Camacho has been a great experience. She is highly knowledgeable, organized, and attentive to detail, which made the leasing process straightforward and efficient. Diana was always quick to respond, provided clear guidance, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled correctly. Her professionalism and commitment to excellent service are truly impressive, and I appreciate the level of care she puts into her work. I would gladly recommend Diana to anyone in search of a reliable and dedicated leasing professional.

Experiencia fantástica: I just want to say that they young lady named diana she is just heaven sent she goes above and beyond to try to help your every need her customer service is out of this world he definitely one in a million

Experiencia fantástica: This community is absolutely beautiful and the manager Diana was very helpful and knowledgeable of the property!

Experiencia fantástica: The new manager at Prospect place (Georgia Malone) is amazing to work with! She prioritized my issue, communicated with me through the process, & helped me come up with a resolution. 10/10 management. Thank you Georgia!

Experiencia negativa: Despite multiple public reviews and private messages detailing serious safety concerns, including a police report filed against a known stalker who resides in the same building and has access to my garage via a cross programmed remote, management and DMG has done nothing. Instead of addressing the threat, they attempted to deny knowledge, only to be met with receipts and documentation. Even then, no protective action was taken. This is not just neglect, it’s willful disregard for tenant safety. Read the negative reviews for this slumlord. They all say the same thing: complaints are ignored, and only negative reviews trigger a sudden response. Look at the likes and engagement on those reviews, that’s the truth they’re trying to bury. I’ve done everything I can to make them act responsibly. They haven’t. Let this review serve as yet another public record of their negligence. This record is being left in anticipation of future legal action.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently worked with Scot Morton of Daniel Management Group and he was SO diligent while working with me and my family!! He was able to coordinate a tour, work with my co-signer, and secure a leasing agreement all within a matter of 48 hours. I would also like to commend his associate, Madelon, who led my tour. She showered my 4 year old son and I with neighborly kindness and it was so appreciated ❤️ Thank you Scot Morton and the Daniel Management family!

Experiencia negativa: I previously left a review outlining my negative experience at The Grove on Belmont, where I was left exposed to an unauthorized tenant who was stalking me. After posting that review, management reassigned my parking to a garage bay that was cross-programmed to his remote, effectively giving him direct access to me. When I documented this and asked for it to be corrected, they went silent. The Vice President was cc’d on every email and was supposed to follow up, but never did. What I received instead: out of office replies, stalling, and a safety breach that remains unresolved. This specific issue was reported on 8/24 and has still not been addressed, almost a month later. DMG responded publicly to my initial review with vague reassurances about “taking safety seriously” and “wanting to speak directly” but I had already contacted their team repeatedly, including their VP. No one followed up. This performative response only proves that DMG is more invested in optics than resident safety. I’ll let the documentation speak for itself.

Experiencia negativa: This place is not worth the money at all, the place is very small and everything is cheap in the apartment so you constantly need repairs. The owners are too cheap to hire anyone else so they have one guy trying to service the whole property so your maintenance request will take days to do. In the beginning, they gave us parking spots and then they took them away to start charging us $100 for them when it’s cheaper to just park on the street. The rent has gone up significantly in a short time and there’s always these charges on your account and they don’t even tell you what they are for. They tow resident’s cars all the time and they’re more worried about money than they are actually helping any residence. If I have any issues, I don’t feel confident at all that management would help out. You could find way more with this amount of money someplace else. The owner has never even been seen in the two years I’ve lived here and management does as little as possible when there’s an issue. Management is only there to be a middleman with little to anything ever being solved when needed. Money hungry at his finest.

Experiencia negativa: Beyond frustrating experience with DMG in the 6 weeks I've lived here. To begin, their apartment listing was deceptive and said the price was $1,390/month, only for the fine print (which even my broker missed) to reveal that it's $1,450/month with one month half off for an *average* of $1,390/month. From there, they have a convoluted onboarding that involves having to opt-out of multiple added services (that cost extra), but none of the steps to opt-out worked so it required multiple direct emails to different providers to actually opt-out. I asked multiple times before moving in if the unit was internet-ready, and was told each time that it was. It was not, and it took over 5 weeks of back and forth to finally get a cable line run to the unit. So I spent over a month without internet access. I'm now having issues with package theft, and receive zero support from DMG in resolving it. They don't even have cameras at the building to help with a police report. Would not have moved into this unit had I known what I was in for, and I'm a tenet with an 800 credit rating and healthy income with zero complaints or issues from previous landlords - they were actually used as references on my application and I've always had good relationships with management prior to this.

Experiencia fantástica: Very good service. You are not treated as a number, but taken care of on a personal level. Absolutely recommended!

Experiencia fantástica: Scot Morton was excellent. A great communicator who will exceed your expectations with outstanding service. He quickly found an apartment that matched all of my requirements and made the entire application process seamless and efficient. I highly recommend working with him to find your next unit.

Experiencia negativa: This management group knowingly left me exposed to a stalker and did nothing. One who wasn’t even legally on his own lease when I first reported the problematic behavior (April 2025). After I reported a known stalker in the building, management reassigned my parking to a garage bay that was cross programmed to his remote, effectively giving him access to me. When I documented this and asked for it to be fixed, they went silent. The Vice President was cc’d on every email and supposed to follow up but never did. What I got instead: out of office replies and stalling, while the safety breach remains unresolved. This specific issue was reported on 8/24 and remains unresolved despite six days of back-and-forth emails. This isn’t just negligence, it’s retaliation through silence. They posture about “security” but in reality care only about optics, responding to Google reviews within minutes while ignoring documented safety complaints for weeks. Their “cameras” are props. They couldn’t even stop people from letting their dogs use the building as a toilet, let alone secure garages or mail. Someone was shot and killed on the property last year and recently a goose was found injured with lead pellets and arrows. The property already has a history of serious security failures. If you’re considering a property managed by this group, understand: they will not protect you. In fact, they may put you in harm’s way. This specific property they’re mismanaging is The Grove on Belmont.

Experiencia negativa: Predatory practices. Will try to pin apartment maintenance on you after move out as damages with false pictures and narratives despite documented maintenance logs. Despicable.

Experiencia fantástica: Scot Morton with Daniel Management Properties was really on top of it when I secured a lease on a new apartment. He returned my texts instantly and helped walk me through the process and let me know who to contact about certain questions I had. It was a pleasure working with him.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! Our tour agent Scot Morton was professional, informative, and dedicated. He made the experience of finding our place very easy.

Experiencia fantástica: Scot Morton was an incredible help to my roommate and I during our first apartment search! He was very available and accommodating to our questions and needs, and explained the process in a way that was understandable to us both. We were both rather nervous going into this search as first timers, and his guidance was invaluable. Helping with the application process and understanding the sense of urgency truly made the difference in getting the place we wanted.

Experiencia negativa: I do not want to make this review but hopefully it’ll catch the attention of the workers. I have been trying to contact this property management group since last week through several emails, phone calls and have left several different voicemails and ways to reach back to me and I have not heard back from them. I was really hoping to see one of their units because I really like the location and the apartment itself but it seems that you cannot get ahold of anyone to ask questions about a showing no matter what time of day you call them. I don’t know what to do at this point because no one ever seems to reach back to me.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent service. Cesar is always willing to help to ensure the resident feels very comfortable.

Experiencia negativa: Absentee landlord. Repair requests ignored, garbage uncollected for weeks at a time, building and grounds neglected

Experiencia fantástica: Daniel Management group is a very professional management company. I have been dealing with them for many years. For them it’s very important that every unit they manage before move in or after move out they have the carpets , floors etc ready and clean for the next occupants. I can tell you personally if the carpets need steam cleaning or not. They want to make sure all carpets are fresh and clean. Ez High Class Carpet / floor cleaning.

Experiencia fantástica: Daniel Management is a very professional company to work with. They really take care of their properties and all of the managers have been on top of every call. Highly recommend working with them!

Experiencia fantástica: We’ve had the pleasure of working with Daniel Management Group (DMG) at numerous properties throughout Chicago, providing garage door and gate services. Our interactions with their team have always been outstanding. The staff and managers are incredibly professional, responsive, and dedicated to maintaining the highest standards for their properties. It’s clear that they prioritize quality service, and we’ve always felt valued as a partner. We look forward to continuing our work with DMG for many years to come!

Experiencia fantástica: Leasing here right now! My leasing agent Scot Morton made finding a new home so easy and fast! Took into account for everything I wanted, answered all my question and was very responsive! So thankful

Experiencia fantástica: We had the pleasure of working with Lauren and CaSandra at ArtHaus 2828. Their team is friendly, efficient, thorough, and the facility is always in pristine condition.

Experiencia fantástica: Alvin was top notch showing us the Aloft property at the Glen. Very welcoming and professional in showing us the community and property. Excited for the opportunity to work with him!

Experiencia negativa: Misleading Credit Practices — Beware Before You Apply! I’m writing this to warn future applicants before they waste their money and time. I recently applied for an apartment managed by Daniel Management Group (DMG) and paid a $70 application fee plus a $300 holding fee, only to find out they’re using a VantageScore — NOT the industry-standard FICO score — to determine creditworthiness. Let’s be clear: this was never disclosed during the application process. Most people (including myself) assume “credit score” means FICO, because that’s what’s used in real estate, mortgages, car loans, and credit cards. Instead, they pull an outdated Experian Vantage 3.0 report, which can be over 100 points lower than your actual FICO score — which was true in my case. This practice is not only deceptive, it’s financially harmful, especially in a rental market where most landlords require 3x the rent and good credit. I later verified my actual FICO score through Experian directly and confirmed the discrepancy of over 100 points. Even worse, my application report through AppFolio did not include my rental history, despite the fact I’ve been renting consistently since 2019. How are you making rental decisions based on outdated, incomplete, and inaccurate data? I’ve since filed a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) for failure to disclose accurate credit scoring methods. If you’re considering applying, ask them upfront which credit scoring model they use — because they won’t volunteer that information, and it could cost you. This kind of non-disclosure is unfair, unethical, and possibly illegal. Renters deserve transparency, not expensive surprises.

Experiencia fantástica: Scot helped me and my two roommates secure our apartment for this upcoming school year! He was greatly appreciated and had very much compassion towards all three of us while trying to navigate the new realm of renting.

Experiencia negativa: Recently my partner and I considered a unit listed under this company for rent in Chicago. The photos on the listing were a different unit, and the floorplan was wrong. The unit we viewed was also mixed up, so we just walked through someone's home. It took a week to determine if the unit had 2 bathrooms or three, because DMG simply would. not. respond. At all.. We finally had to just tour the correct unit with our realtor. The lease can be described in one word, Predatory. As in compulsory 'bundled services' package for $110/month which included us paying for maintenance, an 'admin fee', and finally an internet package at 200Mbps, unless we dropped another $30 for usable internet. In effect, their listing price for the unit wasn't honest, and they were sneaking another $140+/month in, that's after a non-refundable $300 fee just to apply for the lease and discover the dizzying number of upfront fees and non-refundables. What finally scared us off was the 10month lease, which was non-negotiable. After $300 spent to see it, 10months.. The response from DMG when asked was 'Yep! That's right!". Basically a guarantee of a price hike in less than a year. Just.. predatory. It's just a company that doesn't really value their tenants, it was almost insulting. It was sad because the unit was truly nice, and under a different management would have been a good experience. But my review is to steer far clear from this company, for your own good and the good of others. Companies like these should not be in business, and rest assured that there are good rental companies in Chicago. DMG simply isn't one of them.

Experiencia fantástica: Scot was so kind and helpful! He answered all our questions through the application process and helped us get everything done smoothly. We can’t thank him enough!

Experiencia negativa: Unlawful entries, broken AC, and keys left in a public stairwell. Management sends late-night notices for next-day entry with no rescheduling — totally illegal. Kenia is unresponsive and dismissive. Zero accountability, zero professionalism. If this is how they run properties, stay far away.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience working with Scot! He was super responsive at all times and helpful throughout the process. Scot was able to answer all my questions and made sure everything was smooth and easy. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Scott Morton is a genuinely kind and helpful realtor who made the entire process feel easy and stress-free. He listens, understands what you need, and always makes time to answer questions or offer guidance. You can tell he truly cares about doing his job well. Anyone would be lucky to have him on their team. I have lived with Daniel Management for the past 2 years they have been nothing but helpful and responsive. I plan on staying within network when upgrading to my next home.

Experiencia fantástica: Our tour agent, Scot Morton was really helpful and knowledgeable. He took time to answer questions and communicated clearly throughout the process. We saw several units that we really liked. After the tour we had more questions and he was very responsive and provided comprehensive answers. He came well prepared and glad we got someone with a lot of experience and ready to answer all our questions.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience working with Scot! He was always responsive, helpful, and patient with me navigating the leasing process, which I greatly appreciate as someone from out of the area. I’d highly recommend Scot and DMG

Experiencia fantástica: Kolton is always so helpful and available when I need him! Completes my maintenance requests in a timely manner and is always so polite and kind!

Experiencia fantástica: Scot Morton is the best! Quick turnaround only a day after and we have the apartment. Super knowledgeable and kind.

Experiencia fantástica: I just moved into The Grove Residences and the unit is new construction and absolutely beautiful! There were a few hiccups when we moved in but I can’t say enough of how attentive, professional and responsive our Property Manager Adan was. He got back to me almost immediately with my concerns and all the issues were taken care of in a timely manner. He is a great asset to your team!

Experiencia fantástica: Since moving into my new apartment, I had my reservations about submitting maintenance requests due to past experiences with former property management—but Ceasar completely changed that. From day one, he’s been prompt, professional, and incredibly respectful. Not only does he show up quickly, but he takes the time to explain what he’s doing and always makes sure the job is done thoroughly and correctly. He treats your home with care and leaves everything clean when he’s finished. Ceasar (Villalobos) has truly restored my trust in the maintenance process. He’s a rare find—skilled, dependable, and genuinely kind.

Experiencia fantástica: My move-in experience was smooth and stress-free, thanks to the incredible support from DMG Property Manager Adan. He is very professional, responsive, and caring. He made sure everything was taken care of during our move-in, and answered any questions we had. We are very excited to be living here!

Experiencia fantástica: Our agent, Scot Morton that showed our unit to us was very professional and helpful. It was number one on our list and we are grateful for the help we received.

Experiencia fantástica: Cesar with maintenance is the best! He makes living in this complex a lot easier and smoother when incidents arise, although rare, but he is always around to help in a timely, efficient manner. And, his positivity and good attitude make it all the better!

Experiencia fantástica: We had a great experience with Scot helping us to find a great apartment! He was very responsive & communicated all the important details to us in a timely manner. Would be so happy to work with him in the future!

Experiencia fantástica: My parents recently moved into DMG, and I just wanted to say that Chris, the maintenance technician, has been prompt, has communicated to us swiftly, and has gotten all our requests completed in a timely fashion. He is always readily available when they need his help for their apartment needs. He is very friendly and professional. Thanks again for your hard work.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a resident of Lakeland lofts for quite a bit. Recently I had a few technical issues in my apartment which Chris, the technician has resolved perfectly. Since he started job at Lakeland lofts all requests had been answered promptly and professionally. What stood out most was expertise and friendly attitude. It’s reassuring to have someone so capable and trustworthy working in your home.

Experiencia fantástica: Scot was knowledgeable about the property and very thorough while showing the different apartments to us. He was always responsive when communicating.

Experiencia positiva: Overall we’ve had a good experience at the Lakeland Lofts! Chris with maintenance is super quick to respond when we need something. We appreciate having him!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been living at Aloft Glenview apartments for 5 years. The management team - Alvin and Jeremy- are outstanding professionals, very responsive and helpful. The place is safe, well maintained, location is great. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Scot Morton specifically was great at helping us get signed for our apartment ! super communicative and helpful, and the process went very smoothly

Experiencia fantástica: From the first inquiry about an apartment to making an appointment to viewing available units, the management team has been wonderful. They were so helpful and answered all my questions. The building is modern and clean and such a great area. They made my moving experience so much less stressful. I signed a lease with ease ready to move in!

Experiencia fantástica: North Oaks property is a beautiful place. We recently inquired about leasing this place and finally went through with a 2 year lease term. This wouldn't have happened without the Dmg property manager Adan, who has helped us throughout the whole process. He definitely made the process very comfortable and easy. Anything that you needed done, he was more than happy to help. If he didn't have the answers to your question at that moment, he would go above and beyond to get that answer for you as soon as possible. He took his time to show us everything on the property with excellent explanation. My family and I are very excited to move into the building. Some of the perks I would like to mention having kids/ dogs is that inside the community, there is a playground, soccer field, and a dog park. Also, the community center/workout facility is very clean. This place is beautiful. The units are magnificent and modern. We are very excited to live here the next couple years.

Experiencia fantástica: We recently rented at Aloft Apartments in Glenview. As far as the building goes, it is kept up like a hotel. The lobby and halls are very modern and the building is very clean. The management staff, Alvin and Jeremy, are really on top of things. All maintenance requests are done on time. Just a great property!

Experiencia fantástica: Scot Morton was very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly during the tour and application process. Highly recommend to anyone. One of the most straightforward application processes.

Experiencia negativa: I have been a resident of one of their complex's for over two years, and it is disappointing—though no longer surprising—that I find myself once again dealing with a broken heating system. Despite at least five to seven maintenance requests, the issue remains unresolved, breaking down consistently with no lasting solution ever implemented. The truth is, this complex bears little resemblance to the polished image portrayed in its marketing materials. What is described as a high-end, upscale living experience is, in reality, a property plagued by systemic maintenance failures and a complete disregard for residents’ comfort. Water routinely leaks from ceilings. During rainstorms, the hallways look like a flood zone, with plastic buckets haphazardly placed to catch dripping water—more fitting for a dilapidated warehouse than a luxury residence. These are not isolated incidents. They reflect a pattern of neglect that any prospective renter deserves to know about before signing a lease. I would strongly advise others to think carefully and ask hard questions before committing to this property. At this point, I expect immediate action and transparency. If these conditions persist, I will have no choice but to explore formal avenues for recourse and ensure others are fully informed of the reality here. Their response is again another reflection of their ineptitude. In response to the property’s statement, I want to emphasize that I was not notified of the issue being addressed until after it had already been resolved. At no point did I receive a call, message, or even basic notice that someone would be entering my unit. This kind of disregard is precisely the problem. Communication between management, maintenance, and residents is completely disjointed—unpredictable, inconsistent, and unacceptable. What’s even more frustrating is the pattern: issues go unresolved for weeks or months, and when something finally is done, it’s either a temporary patch or handled with zero resident communication. Then management responds with vague, dismissive explanations, expecting us to accept them as thorough or sufficient. I urge anyone reviewing their response to ask themselves: does this sound like a team that’s on top of things or one that’s constantly scrambling after repeated failures?

Experiencia negativa: Beware renting from DMG! Property managers are unresponsive and do not care about their tenants! I have lost count how many times I went without heat this past winter because the heat kept going out and needed repeated repairs. The worst experience I had, the heat was out for one week, and my apartment got down to 40 degrees. I was using two space heaters to maintain the temperature above 50 degrees, but this caused my power to go out. As a tenant, you do not have access to the circuit breakers so I was not able to reset my breakers. I was without power for over 24 hours because upon calling the emergency maintenance line repeatedly, I was told each time that there was no technician available to reset my breakers. I was left without any option except to stay in a hotel for two nights, because even when power was restored to my apartment, my space heaters could not get my apartment above 50 degrees since it had gotten so cold, and even when I was initially told that the heat was fully operational, it was not until the evening of the following day. Even though they are legally obligated to cover my hotel stay due to the Chicago Residential Landlord and Tenant Ordinance, they refused to do so, and now they just ignore my emails. In the initial response I received from them, they blatantly lied and told me false information about the situation, obviously caring more about covering themselves than actually caring that their tenant was without essential services in the middle of winter. On top of that, talking to the maintenance technician during this whole experience, they were honest with me saying that the heat was not fixed and they didn't know how to fix it while management was telling me the heat was fixed and just needed "a warm up period" clearly showing management will not be truthful or forthcoming to you. Furthermore, the technician also said that the heat going out was due to management's own negligence because it was something that should have been tested before winter started and that the whole issue could have been avoided.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been living here for 1 month and ive receive the best tenant treatment. I like how quick they are to respond to your needs and Cesar, the maintenance gentleman, fixes everything so fast and as soon as he receives the orders. I hope cesar stays around for a while because the man can do it all he’s got superpowers.
