Has gown downhill greatly the past few years
February 8, 2025New management is barely better than the last company, constantly fighting them on hidden fees and increased random utility charges. Manager unresponsive and often rude, "improvements" are always promised, rarely deliveredProperty Manager Responded
February 10, 2025Hello – Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We’re sorry to hear that your experience hasn’t met expectations and that you’ve encountered frustrations regarding fees, utilities, and communication. Transparency and responsiveness are priorities for us, and we apologize if we fell short. We’d like the opportunity to better address these concerns. Please feel free to reach out to the property manager at 312-223-0977 or email us at elspropmgr@villagegreen.com. We appreciate your feedback and want to work toward improving your experience. Sincerely, The MDA Apartments Management Team
Review from Apartments.com
A Very Unpleasant Experience
June 6, 2024I lived here for a year, and couldn't wait to get out. It was just such an unpleasant atmosphere. Management almost never responds to repair requests (or anything else.) The dog park is always COVERED IN EXCREMENT. Some of the common facilities are shut-down entirely. Much of the gym equipment was broken. They didn't even bother keeping wipes in stock for the machines. One or more elevators are frequently broken. They also had not been recently inspected while I lived here. They don't ...turn the heat on til almost December. The main lobby is deceptively nice, but everything else is decrepit. One redeeming factor: The door staff and maintenance people are extremely nice and always do their best.Property Manager Responded
August 19, 2024Hello- Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about the challenges you faced during your time at MDA Apartments. We recently took over management of the property in early August, and we’re committed to making significant improvements to enhance the living experience for all residents. We’re particularly concerned about the issues you mentioned regarding maintenance, the dog park, and the common areas. Please know that these are areas we’re actively working on to ensure future residents have a better experience. We're also prioritizing better communication and more timely responses to residents' needs. It's great to hear that our door staff and maintenance team made a positive impact during your stay. We’re striving to build on that strength as we move forward. If there’s anything further you’d like to share or discuss, we’re here to listen. Best regards, MDA Apartments Management

Could not be happier!
April 10, 2024I am so happy I found I found MDA apartments. I have been here for over a year and never had one issue, except maybe when my garbage disposal went out. They had someone here within 24 hours, and as with all my state of the art appliance's it was as simple as hitting the reset switch. The Front desk people are great, the management is stellar, the other tenant's are cool and all I have to say it's a great vibe at 63 Lake.Property Manager Responded
August 19, 2024Hello- Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear how happy you’ve been at MDA Apartments and that you’ve had such a positive experience over the past year. It’s great to know that our maintenance team, front desk, and community vibe have made your time here enjoyable. We recently took over management of the community and are excited to continue providing the stellar service you’ve come to expect. If there’s anything you need or if you have any feedback, we’d love to hear from you to ensure your experience continues to be exceptional. Best regards, MDA Apartments Management
Review from Apartments.com
Only good thing is the concierge and maintenance/cleaning staff
June 1, 2023They will never respond to you. They won't answer your calls or emails. They will avoid it at all costs, unless of course you are telling them something positive in the email. I have been waiting for weeks to address so many issues, and I am so glad I am moving out of this awful building. The concierge and maintenance staff are wonderful and should be given a raise considering how awfully this building is run. Do not move here.Review from Apartments.com
Love the new management team!
November 27, 2022My roommate and I had some kind of extensive maintenance issues, but the team was so helpful and kind once we let them know what was going on! The building is old so there is some general issues but overall really love the building and the people!Review from Apartments.com
Love MDA!
June 22, 2017The property management team at MDA is one of the best I have ever encountered, working always in a professional and friendly manner. I worked with Pat and he tackled any issues that came up without any delay. The maintenance crew and concierge at this property is also wonderful. The amenities are well kept and very, very nice.Property Manager Responded

Review from Apartments.com
MDA
October 11, 2015The apartment is pretty great in general and the management is really helpful. I dropped my credit card on the way out and maintenance gave it to the office and they called me immediately. The only thing about the apartment is that the walls can be thin and you can hear water running from your next door neighbor at times. But all in all, it's convenient, the management is nice and I enjoy living here.Review from Apartments.com
