We recommend Apple Property Management without hesitation. My wife and I have rental property. We first hired Lisa Dankers to find a tenant nearly 20 years ago when we were livi...

Not Worth the Risk 8/25/2009

Stay away from these people. In fact, run away fast! We have dealt with a lot of property management companies, but have never experienced such an unprofessional group. If you go to the office, you will see Porsches sitting out front, but people will not open the door for you, despite knowing you are knocking. The receptionist is clearly trained to not put through your calls. Lisa and David Dankers simply will not return your calls, even if it has to do with safety and hygiene of a property. I really can't believe they have any positive reviews, because we have given them a million chances and they have never failed to disappoint. If you rent from these people, you will likely end up in court trying to get your money back. Don't take the risk-- it isn't worth it! more

Stay Away from Apple 7/7/2009

By far the worst property management company I've ever dealt with! So bad that I really question the legitimacy of the positive reviewers because I cannot fathom how anybody would give them more than 2 stars. If you are thinking about renting from these guys, do you really want to take the risk? Do you want to wait over two weeks to get something in your place fixed, something that is necessary to live with? Here is what you will get: Most likely your place will be dirty upon moving in, and if you dont make notes of everything broken or dirty (there will be a lot), they will charge you for theat upon moving out. The service at the base level is ok, but if you encounter any problems or requests, it will be as if they are on vacation for a few weeks until you keep emailing and emailing and then one day you will get a response that will say, oh I didnt see your earlier emails. This company is what you think of when you hear the word SLUMLORD. Really, its that bad. Why take the chance. Run, while you still can. choose the place that you liked a little less but had a more reputable management company. Not worth it!!! more

Rotten Apple 7/1/2009

run, don't walk away from these guys. nothing is up to code. more

I'll take an Apple a Day! 6/24/2009

Sorry everyone, but we can't agree. We owned a home and a rental for several years-so we have seen both sides but after a job brought us to Seattle we were in the rental market again. We met Lisa and Lillian and have had nothing but great service ever since. They even helped us work with the owners to get a dog in a "no dogs" house. Perhaps you have to consider the source?? Try to think like an owner and work as a team- might go better then acting like you live in a hotel. more

Horrible experience 7/15/2008

Lisa Dankers was rude. I heard her yell at her staff on numerous occasions. Poor communication, illegal and unethical charges upon moveout. I had to hire a lawyer. After disputing charges I was sent to collections without warning or an attempt to resolve the issue. I did succcessfully get the charges reduced but it still adversely affected my credit not to mention the time spent. Many other bad experiences. Had to fight for myself with everything. I woud never use them again. I have never had an experience like I did with this company. more

Apple Property Management Sucks! 7/13/2008

David (who owns a Porsche) Slumlord Dankers is a joke. The receptionist is equally bad. We rented from them, and got things done, but we had to stalk them every time. A few times we had to stay in a hotel because they never responded to the poop and urine backing up into the bathtub until two days after it happened. They are rude and selfish. more

GREAT! 5/26/2008

We have always been renters and can say with the utmost conviction that Apple Property Management is the best by far! We've lived in our apartment here in Magnolia for the past 10 years and Lisa Dankers has always been more than fair & understanding in her dealings with us. We have had our share of personal problems and Lisa has always been willing to work with us. A big THANK YOU to Lisa, Theresa, Leslie & everyone else at Apple for 10 wonderful years...we hope to be here at least 10 more or longer!! more

Exception to the Rule 4/29/2008

My husband and I have lived in an apartment ran by Apple Properties and David Dankers for nearly 6 years and we have been happy with the service the entire time we've lived there. David has been prompt in fixing large scale issues (broken windows, electrical issues, water heater breaking etc). For the smaller things we have just fixed them ourselves with the cost being taken out of our rent. He has also been very helpful in dealing with issues involving noisy and rude neighbors. Has never raised the rent, has never charged us for being late with payments, and has let us know that we are good tenants. My husband and I plan on staying in our apartment until we're ready to buy a house - so he must be doing something right. more

Worst rental exerience in Seattle 4/28/2007

I rented from Apple Property Management about 5 years ago, and I've got to say that I'm surprised these people are still in business. They were absolutely horrible to deal with, with little to no professionalism. I had a lot of the same problems mentioned by others here, such as no return calls to my messages, etc. The big problem I had with them was that they have no respect whatsoever for tenant rights, and they made that abundantly clear after only a few months of my living in their property. These people will take advantage of you for their own benefit. If you do choose to rent from them, my advice is you better bone up on landlord/tenant law or retain a lawyer. more

Terrible. Never do business with them 4/27/2007

We recently rented a house that APM was managing. Worst experience we have ever had!! Never returned phone calls and didn't show up for scheduled appointments. No respect for tenant's rights or what is right under the law. They will take your money and bully you around, so you don't feel like you have a right to fight for yourself. The property manager, Lisa Dankers, is completely unprofessional and greedy. She literally screamed at us in our front yard because we said we would not pay the illegal fees she was trying to charge. She took the fees out of our deposit anyway and has given us no choice but to fight in court if we want our money back. Their lease agreement is very vague and broad --basically says if you do anything wrong they can take all of your security deposit and then some without justification. Seriously, go with a more reputable company. more

Don't ever rent from these guys!! 3/7/2007

I am just now moving out from a place I rented there, David Dankers is a Slum Lord! I had water flooding my living room and he did NOTHING to fix it, he only made repairs to other crucial things after the city threatened to fine Apple Property Management. The furnace is about to completely break down and instead of repairing like the PSE people said they just come and re oil it so you don' t here it make the loud schreeching noises (like a woman being murdered is what it sounds like) Just plain horrible. more

Horrible! 10/23/2006

I totally agree with what has been said. I honestly don't know how they stay in business the way they treat potential tenants. After repeated phone calls to them to express my interest in an apartment, I finally heard back 5 days later. They then gave the apt to someone else, after knowing I sincerely wanted it (and was on record saying as much). They are lazy, rude, and immensely unprofessional. Their lack of customer service and common courtesy alone should be HUGE red flags. more

These guys are clowns 10/7/2006

I rent from them, and any time I need repairs, I have to call over and over again. Once I even had to write a formal business letter, stating that I knew my rights under Tenant's Law and would be taking appropriate steps. That worked, but it shouldn't have to be like that. Even when we first signed the lease, we had to call them multiple times to get the deal done! I mean for God's sake, "I want to give you money" and it was like pulling teeth! more

Asian girl is cute 9/13/2006

They worked with me to negotiate a special lease when I could not agree to the terms they wanted me to agree to. They are really not so bad. Trust me, there are much worse companies out there. more

Awful. Do not do buisiness. 7/11/2006

Even when we were trying to sign the lease it was nearly impossible to get in touch with Apple, now it is impossible. They employ shady business practices, and will take every penny they can get. Refused to respond to major problems, and are unreasonable. If you have any sense run as far away from these guys as possible. If you are forced to deal with them be very careful and read the lease over and over again. Have never had one problem with a management company until now. I kid you not they are the worst company in Seattle. more
