Pine State Property Management has been wonderful to work with! I haveworked with them several times and always been happy. Id recommend their services to family and friends.....

Mike and Rob have been great to work with! For anyone looking for property managers, look no further than these guys. They have a guarantee to place tenants in your rental within 20 days and they accomplished this for us, even during this pandemic were facing! They do thorough background checks on tenants and placed very good ones for us. Theyre very professional and personable to work with, they found great contractors to do work on the property, for a great price and are very quick at getting back to you for any questions you may have. Ive already referred them to good friends of mine. Living out of state and renting a property through these guys is effortless!

Pine State Property Management has been wonderful to work with! My husband and I moved into a property in Bangor two years ago. After having extremely poor experiences with a landlord in Pittsburgh, PA, Pine State has been a much-needed breath of fresh air! They are extremely quick to respond to any maintenance issues/service requests and maintain great communication throughout the process. The stove in our house quit working a few weeks ago, and they were quick to replace it with a new, working unit and kept us posted all throughout the process. Overall, I highly recommend them!

They have done a great job of taking care of my property. Always quick to take care of any problems. Great communication, too -- responses are always timely and helpful.

Pine Tree Property Management started managing my apartment building about two years ago after my previous landlord of nearly 20 years sold the building. Any time I have had any type of question or problem they have been VERY quick to respond and take care of any issues that may arise and I am very greatful. I LOVE their rent discount program for those who pay on time. 😎

We needed to find someone to take over our lease as we were moving out of state and the owner, Mike, made sure we were able to do that in a swift manner and found a new tenant! I would recommend this service to everyone. Thanks again Pine State Property Management and specifically Mike!

I have worked with Mike and the Pine State team for the past 4+ years, and have had great service from day one. I have recommended this companies services because I feel I have been treated fairly, and have gotten answers to all of my questions and concerns quickly.

I was living out of state when I rented my apartment. Theresa was great and made the process very easy even though I wasn’t in Maine. I’m very satisfied and pleased with Pine State Property Management.

I love my apartment. I had to relocate for work unexpectedly. I had never been to Maine and didnt know anyone. I hired a company that helps people like me connect with people and services in Maine. They connected me with Pine State Property Management. They understood my situation and knew that I was on a time crunch. They got me into my new apartment within days and made the process very smooth. Due to their help and understanding to my situation, and willingness to put this together quickly, I was able to get moved in and settled before starting work.

I cant say enough good things about Mike and Rob! For anyone looking for property managers, look no further than these guys. They have a guarantee to place tenants in your rental within 20 days and they accomplished this for us, even during this pandemic were facing! They do thorough background checks on tenants and placed very good ones for us. Their very professional and personable to work with, they found great contractors to do work on the property and for a great price and are their very quick at getting back to you for any questions you may have. Ive already referred them to good friends of mine. Living out of state and renting a property through these guys is effortless!

Between the process of getting our apartment and moving in the experience was great! They are also quick to respond if there are issue at the property.

PSPPME did a great job with virtual walk thru when we werent able to see places in person during corona time! They have been helpful and responsive.

From an owner’s perspective, we are very satisfied with our property management company. Pine State Property Management’s tenant selection process is excellent and we have never had an apartment vacant for more than a month. With major issues we are kept in the loop. From our tenant’s perspective, any issues they report are promptly addressed. Our tenants are happy and are treated fairly. We would highly recommend Pine State Property Management to anyone with property management needs.

Pine State Property Management is the best property management company I have used. In fact, I have moved my entire portfolio of investment properties to them over the years because of the confidence I have in them. Mike Conners, in particular is an outstanding representative and is my go-to person on all things involving my properties. He thinks ahead and anticipates issues before they arise, saving me both time and money on my investments.

If your looking for an honest and responsive and respectful property management company pine state property management is the company for you ..Barry Sullivan

My wife, daughter and I moved out of State in 2013, and we were very lucky to find Mike and his team. I never would have expected to own a rental property, let alone in another State, but Pine State Property Management has made the process very easy. If any issues arise Mike immediately calls us and provides the necessary resources to resolve the issue. They have also recommended general maintenance items for our house and the pricing is always very reasonable. I would highly recommend Pine State Property Management to anyone in Maine or out of Maine, that wishes to rent a property but doesnt want the hassle of managing it. Thanks Mike!

Great customer service. Spoke to them on the chat feature on their website. The person on chat took my information and told me someone would get in touch with me. Someone called me back the very same day. Very quick gathering the information I needed to make a decision if Im going to rent my home. Mike was very honest on the phone regarding the current rental market and risks associated with renting my home. I feel confident if I do decide to move forward that my home will be in great hands!

Mikes been very professional and we’ve had nothing but positive interactions with him. My property stays rented with no worries on my end which is just what I was looking for. He’s also prompt in addressing any questions I may have.

I’ve lived in one of the Pine State properties for about two years now. I absolutely love my apartment, and if I didn’t have to move for work, I would definitely choose to live here for many more years.I picked my place because it had gorgeous light, beautiful hardwood floors, a really nice kitchen (with dishwasher!), and generally solid construction. I liked working with the management team to set my lease up, and they were very responsive the one time I had a maintenance issue (which wasn’t at all a fault of the property, but rather a weather-related septic thing that was resolved very quickly). They have a great snow removal guy, and they maintain the property well. Also, my neighbors have always been perfectly quiet and friendly (even helping me push my car when I got stuck on some snow leaving for work before the plow arrived). Honestly, I’m bummed to be leaving.I haven’t seen any of the other properties managed by this company, but I’d definitely recommend the one in Levant.

Professional, reliable, dependable. They take care of my property, they keep it filled with great tenants and I never have to worry. I didnt want to be a landlord but my circumstances changed and I had to move but was not able to sell my house. My only option was to rent it. This management company has taken care of everything for me from day one. It was stressful moving but they made it so that I didnt have to worry about my house on top of all the other things I had going on.

Great property managers. They stay on top of preventative maintenance in order to avoid bigger, more costly maintenance issues in the long run.

Mike and his staff are professional yet easy and casual to talk to. They have given us superb service. Our house became vacant in the late fall- a very difficult time to find a new tenant. Mike had showings lined up and new renters within a few weeks. We were so relieved! We have been very pleased with our decision to use Pine State for our rental property. I would highly recommend them!

Our experience couldnt have been worse. We worked with Pine State in order to find an apartment from Ohio as we were moving back to Maine. The original apartment that we had settled on, we had a local family member go and check out and everything was in order. However it was rented out to someone a few hours before we were approved. No harm no foul, especially since they suggested a similar apartment just up the road. Now no pictures were available, but we were assured that it was very comparable to the one we had just looked at. What we found when we arrived after a 20-hour drive was a literal crack house. Smoke detectors were disabled and some missing altogether. The common areas were filthy and in disrepair. Worse yet the rooms that we were renting were heavily damaged and littered with refuse. Our door was kicked open, the door frame broken, the keys did not work in the lock. There were holes in the wall and trash on the floor including a fluid soaked mattress a bong and a used crack pipe.Attempts to get a hold of Mike at Pine State were unsuccessful. We ended up staying in a community center overnight until we could get in contact with someone the next day. Lacey our contact was shocked and appalled at how I described what we found. Good thing I took pictures. She assured me that they had checked the room just the day before and none of those problems were present. Its pretty apparent from the pictures and from what the other tenants described that that was untrue. She promised to get in contact with the owner and they would fix it. We asked if there were any other properties available since they had all of our money at the time. The response that we got was that they didnt have anything available and that we would just have to take the place we had agreed to. But they would get it all cleaned up. I let them know that under no circumstances would we be staying there, that we had consulted with a lawyer and that we wanted a refund.It took two weeks to receive our money back, which I am confident we only ever got back because we showed up at the office in person. This company should have bent over backwards to assist us after egregiously failing to do their job.Ive been back in Bangor for 10 days, and I have already heard two just as egregious stories from veritable strangers.This company is run by a crook, and he should be careful before somebody decides to take legal action for gross incompetence, negligence and shady business practices.Pine State is certainly never getting any of my money ever again.

Pine State Property Management is great to work with. Ive used a number of property management services in the past both in the Bangor area and other locations throughout Maine and New Hampshire and the staff at Pine State Property Management by far outshines the rest. As a real estate investor with a large portfolio in multiple states, my only complaint is that Pine State Property Management does not offer services outside Maine.

Very pleased with this property management company and staff. Everyone I have dealt with has been friendly and are quick to respond to any questions I have about my property. I have used other management companies in the area and was not impressed. If you are a rental property owner, I would strongly suggest you stay away from the other so called property managers in the area!

Always quick to respond. our stove & fridge stopped working properly & they were replaced right away without hassle.

Pine state property management has been great for me. The apartment is fantastic and they have been extremely helpful with any questions I might have

Pine State Property Management staff is great to work with. They keep my units full with great tenants and rental prices are competitive. Highly recommend.

Have to say Mike has been very professional in dealing with our property. Has always been on top of the tenant’s issues in conveying to the owners so as to fix issues on time. Have recommended Pine State Prop Mngment to friends who have had the same positive response as us.

My wife and I are considering renting our home. We chatted with Mike. He took the time to explain the rental process and the pros and cons associated with it. He wasnt pushy or trying to sell us or provide us false hope. He also took as much time as we needed with our questions. We didnt feel rushed or like he wanted to hurry up and get us off the phone. Very professional young man.

This company is focused solely on acquiring new properties to manage. Once you have signed a contract, they will not hold up their end of the bargain. They will not answer tenant calls or problems leaving the landlord still stuck dealing with any tenants that already know them as the landlord. Landlords will also have trouble reaching the company since apparently their phones don’t work. At least that’s the only logical conclusion I can come to for a business that won’t answer calls from the people they are effectively stealing money from. The company apparently recently acquired a trailer park to manage when they can’t even find the time to walk down the hallway to the next suite and schedule a cleaning for an apartment they are already paid to manage. The previous tenant in said apartment abandoned it and I was the one to determine this since Pine State couldn’t even be bothered to serve them with a notice after letting them slip $4000 behind in rent. When I went into the apartment, it was flea ridden and I ended up cleaning this apartment, ridding it of fleas, and replacing the floor myself. They don’t even seem to inspect apartments or rooms before they try to rent them out. Why pay 8% of rent to a management company when they won’t do any work to even collect it or to handle any tenant issues.

Recently moved across the country back to Maine. PSPM has made this normally arduous process, seamless.

I’ve had a great experience getting set up with my rental through Mike. Everyone I’ve spoken with so far has been super friendly, helpful, and quick to respond to any questions I’ve had. All in all, I love my apartment, and look forward to continuing to rent with Pine State.

My experience with this company could not have been any more of a nightmare if I had gone to hell itself.To start, I would like anyone reading this to take a look back to a review posted a few months ago by my boyfriend/roommate Liam Daniels. This overviewed our general woes with Pine State at the time, the number of which deters me from recounting them myself. In addition to his review, I would like to confirm all of it as the truth as we know it. We were lied to for the duration of our lease, of which we signed directly with the company, despite what they decided to falsely comment on Liam’s review. (We did not sublease, so either they keep records on par with their maturity level or they didn’t care)As anyone can see from scrolling through these reviews Mike, or whatever sorry “employee” he has writing them for him, is incredibly childish and petty. This is true from each encounter we had with them, which we tried to make few and far between. This is humorous, especially coming from someone almost a decade younger than himself.I’m still somewhat perplexed as to where this company thought they were going to bleed any money from us, considering we are college students. The lease terms were so ambiguous that it was impossible to navigate, which they took every advantage of when adding charges none of the other tenants were charged (extra pet fees, A/C fees, etc.)After Liam posted his review we were threatened with legal action if the review was left up and as you can see, it’s still there. This speaks volumes as to how much you can trust Mike. (If it’s unclear, you can’t.)After moving out due to the mental distress dealing with this company caused and hoping the trash fire was put out, it only got worse. The termination fee we paid for breaking the lease early was never received by the building owners, TLA Properties. Where is my $1,300, Mike? Do you sleep well at night knowing that you stole money from college students barely able to feed themselves due to the astronomical rent prices? I’m sure you do.Save yourselves the incredible grief of dealing with Mike and any of his cronies, most of which I’m sure were paid well to post the few five star reviews you see.The pictures you see are to prove my statements previously made. The first is to prove that there was indeed debris and dust left from construction, which any sensible person would recognize would not be left behind by a previous tenant. The second image is a screenshot of the message received by Liam after posting his review. Nice try to cover this up, Pine State Property Management, but I will not be silenced.

I have been in Maine two weeks and have heard so many horror stories about Mike and his awful business. He is a coward who takes advantage of people and puts them in compromising positions. He rents out locations that are in disrepair and are not safe. He tells lies and hides in his office. Do not work with them. Buyer beware.Edit: Ill expand, since the petty manager replied.Im Kevins wife. He reviewed this business as well. They presented us with a drug den the day we were set to move in and tried to upsell us another one of their horrendous properties after they rendered us effectively homeless.You guys are absolute trash.

Mike is extremely professional and that’s one of the reasons I was drawn to work with him and Pine State Property Management!

After using another Property Management company that turned out to be dishonest, I was lucky to get Pine State. Mike has been great around the whole process, but most of all, I appreciate his responsiveness with any questions or concerns I have

I had the pleasure of meeting with Michael Conners recently, and his wealth of knowledge as well as his genuine desire to help was so refreshing. I would trust him to look after my greatest asset any time

Not sure what the bad reviews are about. Ive never had any issues with Mike or any of the staff at Pine State Property Management. Ive been treated fairly and appropriately. For those that know the connection between TLA Properties, Thomas Applebee and Applebee Enterprises and Mike, or ex connection, they would understand the false negative reviews. Its very sad.

I have dealt with Pine State Property Management over the last 18 months or so and have found Michael and his team faultless. I wouldnt hesitate recommending them to others.

I had a great experience renting from Mike and Pine State Property Management. They were very professional and accommodating throughout my stay. They were very helpful when I had a short term roommate and were very informative when I was waiting for the construction of my apartment to be completed before move-in.

I dont normally do reviews but had to leave one for Pine State Property Management. Hands down, by far the most professional company.

Best property management company in the greater Bangor area. Professional and prompt service.

Honest, professional, punctual and efficient!

Theyve always been great at putting quality tenants into my properties quickly and quick to handle any unforeseen issues that come up.

I currently rent property through Pine State Property Management and highly recommend them. I love the web portal and online payment option for the rent. Messages and texts are always answered promptly.

Michael and the team have been outstanding.. couldn’t recommend highly enough!

I went in to renting with Pine state very hopeful and it turned out to be a very disappointing experience. We did a lease take over and shortly after moving in learned that getting in touch with anyone at the company was a feat. We would sent text messages to their office and call their answering service only to be ignored. We went weeks without any response and had to keep nagging. The previous tenant was charged for damage that was never fixed. When we went to get our security deposit back (forwarding addresses given) we were told that our check had been sent to the apartment where we rented from Pine state (but it hadn’t) and then took us 11 days in to the next month to get it back because we nagged and threatened to get a lawyer. This business is unprofessional in my opinion and I would never recommend renting from them.

I was very pleased with the services I received to locate a good tenant for my property rental. All aspects from from thorough application review, advertising, showing and finally lease signing were handled professionally and with minimal need for any of my time.

I rented from Mike for 4 years. He was always very responsive and professional when dealing with him. His apartments are well maintained and rent is reasonable. Give him a call!

Professional old fashioned reliable service you can count on

Wonderful experience renting from Pine State.

Absolutely horrible. Not even worth one star. My roommate and I rented from Pine State for 2 years while in college. From the day we moved in, they were impossible to get ahold of, and were incredibly unprofessional. Upon moving out, they kept a portion of our security deposit, and when trying to contact them about this issue, Mike did not return texts or phone calls, and the company office did not return a phone call either. This company is miserable, and I would recommend spending double to live anywhere else, than in another unit of Pine States. They will run this company into the ground before long.

Mike is a pleasure to rent from. From the very beginning, searching and then signing on the apartment, he never missed a step. He is a man of his word and delivers a great experience for any renter.

Horrible, they false advertise and screw you out of money.My wife and I are looking for a nice rental in Maine. We saw Pine State Propertys listing for a condo. We have a dog and the listing clearly said it accepts dogs. It says this on their Craigslist post as well as their main sites listing. I have several images which show the listings that say dogs allowed and there is no disclaimer. The site just says to apply. So my wife and I applied and each had to pay $40 for the application fee. The lady emailed the next day and said sorry, dogs arent allowed. She told us she was going to let Mike at Pine State know and that we wanted a refund. He never called. I called him twice and sent an email, he never bothered responding. I finally got a hold of him today and he said, no refund and there is a disclaimer and most people call before applying. Thats great, but their website doesnt say to call to see if the information is correct, it just asks you to submit an application.I checked the site and there is a disclaimer now (there wasnt before all of this as you can see in my images).I think its sad that this company wants to falsely advertise and then keep your money.Im glad they added a disclaimer now, but it wasnt there before and we shouldnt be out money because of their shady business practices and false advertising.You can see the original listing below before I asked for a refund. You can see the updated listing after I asked for a refund.

Mike has been great to work with in my experience

I’ve heard little to no good about pine state, I watch the troubles roll in with a property owner and now I get call from tenants (when I have nothing to do with management or caretaking any longer) who haven’t had their rent picked up and repairs that need to be made to their unit. I want to help these people, they used to be my neighbors and I care about their health and safety (they are an elderly couple) but my hands are tied where I do not own these properties. Not sure what’s going on over at pine tree but something has to give.

As an owner, I would not recommend this property management service company. I received negative feedback from renters on responsiveness, and inconsistent quality of renters from Pine State selection process including one who was unable to pay rent the first month. If you are an owner looking for a property manager, I would look elsewhere.

Top notch company, great to work with!

Unprofessional and lazy. After paying a 40 dollar application fee and making arrangements to meet through text they will send you an automated text message 2 hours before your appointment if you do not answer it they cancel it, some people work and cannot answer their phones, just caring forself and not clients

Very responsive staff and the apartment was cleaned and prepared when I moved it.

Super professional! Great to work with!

My landlord rented from him. Honestly glad she got rid of him. Dont rent from him. You will regret it.

Great place for a place to live
