from our residents

"We have loved our time living at 3020 On the Rail. From the start, the management and maintenance have been friendly and responsive. As a grad student, I was looking for a quiet and convenient place to live, and this building accomplished both. They also have great security, and I have always felt safe while being here. We loved utilizing the shared gym space and the underground parking in the winter months. One advantage to this apartment would be how spacious the units are. It was nice to have space for visitors and separate places to study. Overall would recommend 3020 On the Rail to anyone looking in the Prospect Park area!"

"Lived there for a year and it was great. Awesome location and secure building. The owner Dan is such a genuinely kind man and very quick to respond. Highly recommend this apartment over large management companies that don’t care about you or take forever to respond once they have your lease signed."

Daniel K - Google Review

Building: MN46 Apartments

"Had a great stay at Dan‘s place. Smaller one bedroom apartment which was perfect for what I was looking for. Would definitely consider staying again."

Aaron - Airbnb Review

Building: Valley View Apartments

"This place is everything you want out of an apartment complex. Clean, friendly neighbors, quiet, and competent responsible management. My request to add more bike space was promptly met with more bike racks in the garage. I moved downtown for other reasons but otherwise would have stayed for much longer.

Appliances and apartment itself were high quality. Noise through floors is minimal. Close to public transport, right next to CUB."

Luke S. - Google Review

Building: MN46 Apartments

"I loved living at 3020! The quality was exceptional. Everything in the apartment was updated, my (corner) unit was very spacious with beautiful natural lighting, things were quiet and safe, and Dan was a wonderful landlord. Maintenance requests were answered very quickly, and he's always pleasant to interact with. Going from this apartment complex to a larger one where management is in charge of three buildings especially made me appreciate how 3020 was managed/maintained. If I hadn't relocated out of the cities, I definitely would have re-signed. Thank you Dan!"

"My husband and I lived at MN46 and were very happy with our experience. The building is quiet, clean, well-managed, and has friendly neighbors.
Dan is amazing to work with! He is respectful and kind and was always quick to respond to our inquiries. The building is within one block of Minnehaha Falls, Cub Foods, and neighborhood coffee shops! I would highly recommend this building as the apartments are cute, new, and have large windows to let in the sunshine! Thank you, Dan, for your kindness and professionalism throughout!!"
