You want to rent a place with these guys, think of it again and again, till you decide not to...... I am a minority, paying rent for five years to these guys. It was a scheduling error in my bank account for the last rent. The late fee is 8%, if you do not pay it for the first 3 days of the month and they only wait you to pay after charging this robbery only for extra 2 days before filing an eviction notice. The court hearing date is even faster, you will find yourself in front of a judge less than 31 days after first day rent must be paid. They have a very fast service. I am going to leave this place for good and you better do not even think about renting.

The management staff at Kenwood Gables are wonderful people. They go out of their way to be helpful at all times. They even pet sit your cat when you are gone at no charge! They deliver all packages to your door at the end of the day. They are prompt and thorough in answering any questions. Anytime I have interacted with them they always seem like they're trying to put themselves in the tenants shoes. It's surprising how actively kind they are. The apartments themselves have a smart design with little wasted square footage. The parking garage is spacious and you can walk to the lakes or downtown in not time. The only downside is a little highway noise from the south.

My girlfriend and pursued living at Kenwood Gables, an apartment operated by Highland Management Group. We scheduled a tour and visited their location. My girlfriend alerted the leasing agent when she visited of a potential challenge for being approved. The leasing agent asked questions about the issue, stated strongly that we would likely be approved, and encouraged us to submit our $90 application fee. We submitted the payment and heard nothing for a week and a half. They wouldn't return my phone calls and messages trying to determine the status. When I finally got her on the phone, she rudely talked over me every time I tried to speak. I had to keep asking her to speak, and then she would still interrupt me. Finally, she said that, in fact, she had no idea how/why they discriminate based on backgrounds, that they outsource it to another company and don't even know their requirements. Why, then, had she encouraged us to pay $90, under the false pretense that we likely would be accepted, when, in fact, she had no idea what the requirements even were? Bottom line: they gave us misleading and false expectations, encouraged us to waste $90 when they should have known better, and then refused to refund the money. Do not do business with this company. They are rude, and either incompetent or just plain dishonest.

The staff is firendly and ready to help at all times. The building is VERY clean and VERY quiet. The location is great, with quick access to uptown, downtown, and both I35 and I94 freeways. It is easy to walk to several restaurants and bars, as well as the scupture garden and Lowery park. The heated parking is also a must in Minneapolis. What a joy it is to be warm and dry as you drive past your neighbors, while they scrape ice from their windshields.
