Laverty Lohnes Properties

I lived in a Laverty Lohnes Property in North Cambridge for over six years, and I loved it. In fact, I would no doubt still be there if various life changes hadn’t necessitated a move. (As a matter of fact, my roommate stayed there after I left, until a new job relocated her to NYC. And whenever I have needed to move in and around Cambridge, the first call I have made was to Laverty, to see if they had any available apartments that would work.) As other posters have mentioned, their prices were very reasonable and rents were seldom raised, they were meticulous with maintenance, and Nancy in their office was always warm, cheery, and responsive. They always gave us 24 hours notice when they would be coming by to do repairs, they did repairs when they said they would, and they were always prompt with renewals, answering concerns, and other notifications. I just can’t say enough good things about them. The woman who was in our apartment before we moved in had been there almost ten years. My friend who was the one that recommended I contact Laverty was in the building for five years. All told, my various roommates and I were there for almost eight years. Given the longevity of their tenants, it can be hard to get in. But that kind of speaks for itself, doesn’t it? ‘Nuff said.

agreed! these guys are great. i’ve been in my north cambridge apartment for a little under a year, and i’ve been so pleased with their management.
they’re responsive and proactive about things like utility maintenance, construction, etc., but never intrusive. they maintain the building and surroundings pretty spotlessly: this winter, when i was trying to navigate the slippery mountains of ice on the sidewalk all over the city after the 40^th round of snow and freezing rain, the sidewalks and parking lot of my building was always completely cleared and salted. and the rent is really reasonable (and hasn’t gone up!). after the slumlords of allston/​brighton, this is a REALLY welcome change.

Ditto!
Can’t believe there is a review for these guys. I have been at my place in Porter Square going on 6 years. Rent has gone up about $ 50.00. They are great people and awesome lords of the land. Nancy… yeah the person I talk to… she is the best… never met her, but after multiple conversations… shes awesome. Always accomdating and very friendly. The day I move will be a sad day.
You’re a lucky S.O.B. if they own your building… nuff said!

The ONLY apartment I’ve lived in for over a year. has been owned by Laverty Lohnes Properties. The CHEAPEST apartment I’ve lived in the area (by about $ 100) has been owned by Lavery Lohnes Properties. These guys are good at what they do and damn nice about it. It’s been about a month since I moved out (nothing to do with them or the area) and I miss them. A LOT.
The apartment was in very good shape, things that needed maintenance (laundry machines, etc) never went over a week without repair. and everyone that I’ve chatted with at Laverty has been great. In fact, when they were painting or doing work they made sure to get in contact with my 2 other roommates and our house phone (not that it’s a person…) before stepping foot into our apartment. And I know this is probably a law or something, but I didn’t experience that with my other apartments in Boston. On top of the fact that they maintained the front areas well. They made sure the landscaping and walkway were always under control and groomed.
If you ever see an apartment being rented out by Laverty. JUMP ON THAT SHIZ!
