I have been an owner at [redacted] for 25+ years White & Katzman has been the property "management" company for the property for approximately of those years I work in a business concentration that has had me living all over the world, and I can UNEQUIVIOCALLY confirm that White & Katzman is the WORST property 'mgmt.' company on the planet! Examples: Sporadic snow removal..especially in the worst winters! TOTALLY non-responsive to REPEATED complaints about cakice on walkways...no sanding, no chipping, NOTHING! In the winter of 2015, a UPS delivery man fell on the ice on my walkway and wanted to hold ME responsible! I reported this hazard THREE TIMES with ZERO responses from Michael Katzman I told the delivery man that if he intended to sue, I WOULD BE HIS BEST WITNESS! Ancillary condo fees charged for things like 'roof raking' in winter, etc Any REPUTABLE Coindo Mgmtcompany would ensure that condo fees were in sync with potentially harsh winters, etcand not burden residents with outrageous extra fees when residents are ALREADY overcharged dramatically for the ZERO amenities we receiveNON-RESPONSIVENESS to complaints! This is the WORST violation of all! When something is reported, it is IGNORED completely! Repeated complaints are ignored I have called every day for a week to complain about an external problem that was ignored...until I sent a REGISTERED LETTER! I cannot tell you how AWFUL this 'company' is This is merely a start: it is far worse than outlined herein! And the problem is CHRONIC! I have told every real estate person I know about the incompetence of White & Katzman It is the only satisfaction I have in repaying horrible serviceSTAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!
I fell a year ago in January because there was no salt or sand on the ice and snowI fell and fractured my pelvis and of course White and Katzman are denying it was their faultIn the years I've lived here there has been a battle with them about sandingThey refuse to have someone do itThe last year the it who did plow when he felt like it put a bucket of salt in the entry wayIt was an old container with a filthy cup in it and it was had as a rockYou couldn't get anything out of itHow damn cheap can you getThis is at *** *** *** ** *** *** I also, for the last four years have had a major problem with bugsSpiders, ants, bedbugs and fleasThe fleas were so bad my leg became infected and am still in treatmentThe lady from White-Katzman I deal with is a real AHBig timeShe's unfit to manage an outhouse let alone a condo complex

I have been living in my unit now for abut yearsWhite and Katzman has taken over the property about a year nowI have along with most of us in the building complained about the rat and mice problems throughout the building and they continue to send a exterminator who does nothing to make the situation worse with baitersI am no longer able to open the windows to my kitchen as if the mice in the building walls are not enough of an issue but the fact is that I now have whole in my kitchen screensyupthe rats are eating thru the windows to access the house (and not only in my unit, I'm on the 3rd floor)I was told someone was coming to replace the screens and "TAKE CARE OF IT"well its been days and no one has even calledtrying to get someone to PROPERLY take care of the issues in this building have been a nightmareI have approximately traps set in my house as I type thisI wish I could add pictures to these post so you can see the crap on the inside of my window along with the fur that is stuck to the frame from them squeezing in and out of the windowAnd the fur in the heatersOMGyou could make a matching hats and gloves with it allwe are breathing this in! My other issue is electricalI say 75% of the thing use are all on extension cords including the fridge since there is only one outlet per roomYou cant run more than two thing or you loose powernot to mention electricity is tied into the common area hall lightsHINT COMMON AREA (figured that out when I tried to run a deep fryer and microwave and lost power) I can go on and on about the property and its issue and the fact that they are never truly repaired but band-aided! I would not suggest ANYONE TO RENT FROM THESE PEOPLEI don't know what they are like in the suburbs but in the city they are horrible, they don't respond, they don't follow up, they don't maintain the property, but they do want their rent no matter whatToday Ill be calling again because the pipes are full of some kind of black stuffbathroom sink is clogged and probably overflowing as we speak due to a constant drip of hot water that no one seems to care to fixwhile my gas bill continues to grow from the wasted hot water that continues to dripHad enough of this place and this is my last few month in itI wish the best of luck to anyone who dares enter into a lease with this company
called them to inquire about an apartment their website listed as available, took multiple calls before someone picked upwhen they returned my call they did not leave a messagewhen I finally spoke with someone it was the wrong person, and evidently the business is fragmented, so if you're looking at apartments in a particular area you will have to speak with multiple people for different buildings in the same areawhen I was finally able to speak with the right person they had no availability in the building, I told the woman she should update the website to say the apartment was unavailable, she responded "yeah I'm not going to do that, thanks." and hung up
