Paradrome Properties, Cincinnati OH

I moved into 2400 Grandview at the start of my fellowship. My girlfriend turned fiancé turned wife joined me a few months later and called it her oasis. She and I loved our time at Grandview and started our family there welcoming our son two years into our stay. If I had to do it again, I would absolutely choose Grandview or any of the other properties that Paradromw manages.

Grandview is a grand old (over 100 years old), pet friendly, apartment building in the heart of East Walnut Hills. Despite its age, Paradrome has managed the property very well with new appliances, central air/heat, and a very responsive staff. I called only a few times for emergencies, and they were handled swiftly and professionally.

Thank you again for providing my family and I such a great place to call home while in Cincinnati!

I rented one of Paradromes Oregon street properties for about a year and half and it was great. Straightforward processes and lease terms. Missy the property manager was always responsive and friendly. I never had any real issues but if I had, I'm confident they would have been sorted out quickly. I also really like that they are local. If I hadn't moved cities, I'm sure I'd still be at my old place.

They have some really cool rentals just east of town and I can't recommend renting with them enough.

I have lived at the Claremont just over 3 years and loved it! Spacious apartments, polite professional neighbors, and the building is very well kept. The biggest highlight of almost
all the units is the amount of storage, lots of closets and unique built ins. The kitchens are updated and the wood floors are beautiful. The price of the units are incredible for the size of the space. Location has been awesome, very close to downtown, Hyde park, Oakley, and New Port. Several new businesses are opening in the area adding to the locations charm and walkability. Very close to Eden Park, I take many morning and evening walks to the reflection pool and back! The property manager Missy is amazing, she is very responsive and takes care of her residents needs.

My wife and I lived in Salutaris Court for around three years while I finished up graduate school. Missy, Ken, Don, Dan, John (the postman) and some great neighbors made Salutaris Avenue a great place to spend this time.

Our experience was very good from the start, and Missy has been particularly accommodating for all of the routine maintenance requests and other issues that come about in a rental situation.

When we would ship things to the office when a signature was required, they would be signed for, we would receive an e-mail letting us know they had arrived, and oftentimes, Missy or Don would actually leave them inside the door of our locked atrium.

Landscaping is great, the area is quiet, and the steam heat works well enough to walk around in shorts during the winter if you felt like doing so. I plan to own rental properties in the near future, and Missy and Ken have set a solid example for how to do this successfully. I would live here all over again.

I rented from Missy for 3 years after moving back to Cincinnati and am so thankful to have found Paradrome Properties. The units were affordable for the location and any issue was addressed immediately when brought to management's attention. Can't say enough good things about this team.

Read this before renting. I am a resident of Paradrome Properties in East Walnut Hills. Last night, one of my cars were parked in a commonly used parking space designated for folks who live in my building. My girlfriend woke up to the car having been defaced by the owner of Paradrome Properties. Apparently, she parked in the spot he is partial to when he visits the East Walnut Hills office.

He left a note and wrote on her windshield. The note reads, "Pardon me, are you a slow learner? Do NOT park in the space". Additionally, he wrote "Do not park here" in DEODORANT on the windshield.

When my girlfriend discovered this and was trying to clean off her windshield, the day to day landlord drove by. The day to day landlord saw the note and the deodorant smeared on her windshield and said, "Oh, that was my dad. He is in town this week. Could you just not park there for now? "

There were no prior notices, signs or conversations about any parking spots being off limits. I am extremely disappointed with the management of Paradrome Properties and hope anyone reading this might take caution renting from them. Especially if you are looking for a landlord that respects your personal property more than where they like to park their BMW.

Additional observations: My apartment has a broken toilet that Paradrome has refused to fix for over a year, they do not have security cameras and have yet to replace numerous light fixtures over entrance ways into the building. Great location but the cracks definitely show though.

I lived in an apartment managed by Paradrome Properties for two years and loved everything about it. Missy was very responsive and easy to work with. The buildings are beautiful and well-maintained. Any problems that ever came up were quickly resolved and communicated to residents. I would very gladly rent from Paradrome again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a charming apartment with excellent management!

I have rented from Paradrome for over 3 years both at upland place and Fleming St. The people are great Missy is nice, prompt and always very very helpful. They also have apartment in some great locations. I would strongly recommend them to people looking for apartments close to UC, CCHMC and downtown.

Management was responsive, kind, and friendly. I moved from New York and they allowed me to ship everything I ordered to their offices for safe keeping. They also allowed me flexible lease terms because I was in a unique short term stay for work. Missy and Ken will work with you to find the perfect home and lease for your needs. I cannot say enough great things about my apartment at Madison Court and their courtesy. Definitely rent with Paradrome.

I moved into the edencliff property outside of Eden Park. At first, Missy (property manager) was friendly, and continued to be throughout my time at the rental. However, there were numerous problems - almost on a consistent basis throughout my year lease. This led me to believe that the property aims to rent to recent grads who are less likely to complain about rental issues.

Here was my experience:

Security is a big issue. The property Needs camera. The surrounding neighborhood has a high rate of theft. Myself and other neighbors had multiple packages stolen out of the front lobby. Rather than fixing the problem, Missy suggested to send the package to the main office. Also, numerous cars were broken into from the parking lot.

Secondly, I was mislead while taking an intial tour of the apartment. I noticed watermarks on the ceiling and asked the Property manager if the ceiling was or had leaked. She said no, however, during a thunderstorm two leaks opened the ceiling and had to be fixed.

Third, a couple months after moving in my heat stopped. I bought an electric heater and deducted the expenses from my rent. This continued for at least a month to two months having no heat.

I would not recommend this management company.

I highly recommend Paradrome properties. The apartments are spacious and well taken care of. Missy was always responsive to any questions or concerns. No complaints!

Paradrome Properties had a great selection of units in some of the premier locations in Cincinnati. Their units definitely have the "Cincinnati Charm"; updated units in historic buildings. I rented through them for 3+ years and they were always very responsive to issues or requests, and made both repairs and improvements quickly. Highly recommend to pursue working with them.

Mexican worker caught looking in my bedroom where my wife was sleeping during a job to replace a blown vanity strip in our bathroom. Three years of loyalty.

I rented from Paradrome on two separate occasions. Most recently for four years.

Great people. Quick and reliable response to any maintenance issues and overall an excellent experience.

Paradrome would be my first place to look if I were to rent again. Highly recommend!

Paradrome has been around for more than a decade in Cincinnati area (or two).

1. Most of their buildings are older than avg buildings in Cincinnati. To my knowledge no major renovation has occurred at any of their properties in last 4-5 years.

2. Property I live on Victory parkway has horrific safety record, numerous burglaries over last few years. Check public record at of their properties.

3. Building management is average, fluctuates between average and poor experience.

4. Overall I would pay below market rate here, personal opinion.

5. Missy and Don are decent people, not sure about others.

Loved my time with Paradrome in Hyde Park. Landlord is really responsive (repairs done very quickly), flexible, and friendly. If I weren't moving to Clifton I would've stayed with them!

I moved to Cincy from San Jose, CA, in 1999. Found Paradrome online, and rented it without ever seeing it! Originally started in a one bedroom and then moved to a larger unit. Towards the end of the second year, I had to move due to an family emergency but I would have stayed on had it been possible. LOVED the apt, gorgeous, spacious layout and great staff,

Would highly recommend to anyone!

I had Paradrome as my landlord for 3 years. They were attentive and easy to deal with. Definitely recommend!:)

The best renting experience I've ever had! Maintenance requests are completed same day, sometimes within the hour you called! VERY friendly staff. Missy is GREAT to work with! They own several properties within the Cincinnati area. Would highly recommend Paradrome Square Properties to anyone!

My wife and I rented from them for our first apartment. They have a great selection of apartments and are excellent to work with. Whenever we had issues they we very quick in resolving them. I would highly recommend them if you are looking for an apartment in the mount adams/ hyde park area.
