Frightful company. Dishonest, Rude, nasty, incompetent (purposefully) management. <br />
A woman there named Barbara Jager. A Big Fat rotten nasty sow, cow, piglet, whatever you want to call her. There aren't many people in the world of business who are as bad as she is.<br />
Shocking. Plus, she once lied about her credentials, tried to claim she was a lawyer. If she does that to anyone else out there, call the CITY BAR Association. She could be prosecuted for that.

If you are having a problem paying your rent to MCM, don't hide! Communicate with Belinda, and then with Barbara, to let them know when you think you can make a payment. If you do so, and follow through, you will find Barbara to be an extremely compassionate person. She will state your case to the owner and give you the benefit of the doubt. If you gain her trust, she will do more for you than you could have ever imagined.

What can I say, other than the agents are very nice, and deceiptful, and sell you on something you don't need. After searching for properties around the $1800 mark, the agent took us to a great property that we fell in love with. Then dropped the price = $2400. At that point, we were committed to the place and put a deposit down (searching for a home, as we all know, is a highly emotional process).

After filling out an application, we were INTERROGATED by Barbera. She interviewed us, asking pressing questions about our credit card debt, she called our references, then ultimately asked for an additional deposit.

Once we moved in, we were told that the hardwood floors installed were against HOA rules and we were required to buy rugs to cover 90% of the flooring. We have 2 dogs (which were on our lease), and the reason we paid so much was partially due to the hardwood.

Then, we found out that the condo building had 24 hour QUIET HOURS, as it was predominantly occupied by homebound old ladies with 24 hour nursing care.

The final straw was that we left the place SPOTLESS, and had a walk-thru where everything checked out and we were told we would get our deposit back minus a mandatory cleaning fee. We ultimately got half our deposit back.

I strongly suggest an alternative with The Beaumont Co, who I had before and after my MCM experience.

Both, Barbara and Melissa were very helpful and understanding to some issues and concerns that I was having. I have had some bad experiences with other property managment companies in the past... cold harsh...not caring, and unwillingness go the extra mile.

MCM Property Manament is GREAT and I would recommend them to anybody, anytime.

VERY satisfied customer!

TO ALL READERS... I was employed at this company longtime ago, maybe early 2000. The company and owners are not as horrible as some are saying. YES there were issues with maintenance staff but as I recall, MCM has always given their best to fix the problems. I remember sending my handyman over in a property in the middle of the rain because the parking area was flooded due to rain water and the drainage was blocked with soil and leaves.. or even at one point putting maintenance on the roof while its raining to remove blockage in the gutter... Maintenance crew were given Maintenance order form that residents were required to sign off detailing if work requests were completely done or need to comeback to finish. If TENANTS are not present at the time of the appointment, with their permission, Maintenance can access the premises to handle the requests, or can meet whomever the RESIDENTS assign to open the door for the handyman. *** LICENSED maintenance?? for minor jobs, it IS NOT required by law to hire a licensed maintenance/handyman. ALL MAJOR jobs such as big roofing issues, plumbing (not toilet not flushing or water leaking from the faucet), YES it is always best to hire LICENSE and BONDABLE companies for liability issues. THE OWNERS??? I have nothing bad to say about them! I met the whole family including their children... IF MARTY BEING BAD means trying to give his renters enough time to comeup with the rent even its been few days behind - AS LONG AS TENANT MAKE THAT ONE CALL AND BE UPFRONT THAT RENT WILL BE BEHIND...- then he MUST BE A VERY BAD PERSON.. SHADDY??? Not the Gurfinkel I know! YES I AM STRAIGHT UP DEFENDING THE COMPANY AND THE GURFINKELS!!! I was there and witness everythig... JUST LIKE ALL OTHER MANAGEMET COMPANIES, MARTY FOLLOWS ORDER FROM THE BUILDING OWNERS TOO. MCM gives its best to manage the properties accordingly and in accordance to Landlord Tenant Laws. For the 2 years I was there, YES, I have been to court for UD and small claims... lucky for MCM, law was on our side! With proper paperworks and proper record keeping, we were always able to prove that YES, we gave the service tenants requested, proper NOtices were given and posted and yet, a simple call to let us know rent will be delayed causes them an eviction! AND BOTTOMLINE - Marty had an opportunity before to manage about 6 more apartment buildings with one owner... but because the OWNER of that property refuse to keep his property habitable, Marty did not think twice... HE RATHER LOSE ALL THOSE INCOME RATHER THAN RENTING OUT A RATHOLE PROPERTY!
