Does anyone have experience working with GC Realty in Chicago?

Hi,

I'm looking for good PM for my rental properties (single families and small multi units) in Chicago south and south suburbs. Currently I'm using Elite Invest and Renters Warehouse. Elite is bad, and Renters Warehouse is ok but hard to reach when I need to communicate with them (except for maintenance & repairs) .

I'm considering GC Realty now. However, other than the 10% of management fee,  they have all sorts of charges, on board fee, PM cancellation fee (within 6 months), mark up fee, over hour fee, using their credit cards fee, negative balance interest fee, just name a few. I've talked to over a dozen PM companies, and they are the one that charges the most. 

Does anyone have any feedback or recommendations about this company or their services? or any other PM recommendations will be appreciated! 

Thanks!

Jie

@Jie Li GC is the best PM I have ever experienced. I have SFR & MFR in 4 different states, and no other PM even comes close. I highly recommend them, especially if you are considering to expand in the Chicago area. They have helped me expand there, often giving me "ye or nah's" on specific streets or neighborhoods to invest in. I feel they keep you tenants, which in turn, keeps them your tenants. Their fees are a small price to pay for peace of mind.
