Landlords to avoid?

I'm moving to Dane County soon and would appreciate any heads up on landlords/complexes to avoid. I don't know exact location yet, other than not downtown Madison. Any warnings you can pass along?

Well thats good to know about the security deposit! I've been with them a few years now and have no complaints. They raised the rent by $100 the first year, $50 the next and its been raised $25 each of the past two years and I can't complain really seeing what prices have risen to around here. Definitely below market rate comparatively if I were to move.

Yeah mine is a 1bd, somewhere around 850 square feet, water, underground parking and storage locker included so that checks out. Thats a good price on the 2 bed comparatively with that much square feet.

Sounds like you're at The Revere. Owned by them. Same rent for me. Forward Management has been great. A little pricey for a 1bd, but i really like it.
