Review of Lake Shore Property Management

Slum Lords. That's what they are. Sure, the tenant...

Slum Lords. That's what they are. Sure, the tenants next door can be selling meth to people also in the apartments as well as drive up people honking horns and blasting music at all hours of the day and night, but by god you hit 5 days late on paying rent and there's a 30 buck fee and an eviction notice on the door. You need stuff fixed? Good luck with that. Stopping by 2 weeks later and without any notification? yep. pretty standard. OH. And forget about asking to talk to a manager, as they are perpetually unavailable and the person who answers the phone will refuse to tell you their names or when they'll be in..

UPDATE: February 10,2013

december/january the entire property's parking lot (Oakview Woods) was repeatedly burglarized. Upon setting up a community watch with other tenants, the township sheriff, and the landlord, we asked for a letter to be put out regarding the break ins. Everyone was on board. EXCEPT THE LANDLORD, Who, a month and a half later still has not produced said letter, and as of two days ago, more people here had possessions stolen directly out of their hallways and cars.

When asked why the letter regarding the continuing thefts had not been sent out, their office manager, Cara, quite flatly and rudely said "Yeah, we don't think it's necessary to let people know about this."

Multiple attempts to contact the landlord on his direct cell phone were made, and absolutely no response has ever been given, unless of course litigation or talking to the local paper is suggested, then the response is and always has been "not my problem, talk to the police." and "We have a process.".. (process = wait for the people to not pay rent, because that's all he cares about. not how they're getting him his money or the cost and safety of the other tenants.)

On top of that, we just received a notice saying that if we have our windows open this winter (radiator heat, no air flow, and a lease signed waiver against suing for radon and mold issues) that there would be a $50 fine.

Lakeshore Property Management? More like Mismanagement. Mr. Genzink and his associated business don't want this to be a better community, or a safe one. He wants his money, nothing more, nothing less.

So if you're looking for a place to rob or buy drugs, Stop on by. Apparently you can totally do either here and get away with it, even though they know for a fact it"s going on.
