Wilmette Real Estate & Management

We rented from this company in Evanston (Sherman and Seward) and terminated our lease as soon as we could. It looked like a nice building from the outside and the property manager was okay, but the company itself was completely checked out. You could *never* get a person on the phone – only leave messages.
After the big snow storm last winter, our ceilings became *very* mildewy and the apartment smelled very moldy. We called our manager and after a week (a week!!) she asked us to call WR about the problem ourselves because she felt her hands were tied and the company was not sending anyone out to fix the issue. It took another week to get someone in there!
Our building also had roaches – so be sure to look for signs before renting. (We had never had roaches before, so we didn’t know what to look for. Now we know! Ugh!)
We will never, ever consider renting from them again. RUN away from any building they manage.

I’ve heard bad things about them from others, but I really have had a good experience with them. The main leasing office is a pain in the ass and seems to be entirely staffed by people who are a few tacos shy of a combination plate. But overall my experience has been good, and in large part due to my supers. Tiffany and Wayne are the supers of my building and they are FANTASTIC. They are not at all intrusive, but when you need something from them the respond quickly. They do a good job with repairs, and have made a lot of improvements to the building. I think they manage a few buildings, so if you’re in a building managed by Tiffany and Wayne you’re in good hands.
