Newman Properties

This is hands down the worst apartment experience I have ever had. After months of dealing with a flooding apartment, the landlord and his incompetent daughter dealt with the situation by avoiding us, leaving us with a water vacuum to deal with the over 60 gallons of water that accumulated in my bedroom, and continuously telling us that they would deal with it when the rain stopped or the snow melted or it got warmer, depending on the current excuse. They also dealt with it at one point by tying a tarp around the fire escape, which was definitely against fire codes (and really loud). After five months of flooding, we left and they refused to pay for my damaged items such as my bed, and had the nerve to send us a bill to repaint the apartment. Other than that, I heard complaints from other tennants regarding the maintenance as well. They don't have anyone on call outside of office hours and are just generally rude and unhelpful. Do not rent from Newman Properties - they're basically slum lords.
