They do not respond to maintenance requests, slum Lords. Multiple code violations. Electrical issues.

Was denied due to work history even though I've never went without a job, at my current employer 8 months, was at the previous one for 3 years. Also said bad rental reference even though I've lived at my current residence for 4 years. This makes no sense and I feel as though they are just denying people because they can. Something legally needs to be done about this agency. This is NOT equal or fair housing.

Rented over 5 years from Bauers until owner decided to manage himself. During that time with Bauers, I had very good experience. Maintenance requests were prompt and very well done. Management was respectful and helpful as well as respecting my privacy. The rent was affordable and reasonable. I will have no hesitation to rent again from Bauers.

We have rented from Bauer on two separate leases and had good experiences both times. Staff are friendly and maintenance requests have been resolved promptly. Rent is reasonable and we have enjoyed both homes that we rented from them.

Unless your going through private landlords you will not find any available rentals in Ashland or surrounding areas. And people wonder why there are so many rentals in Ashland because they only select people they want and if they don't think you meet their standards you will simply be tossed aside. Extremely biased and incompetent as a business, think if Hitler ran a Realty company and only let "The Perfect German" rent from him and forget about anyone else who isn't.

My husband and I were looking to rent a house through this agency. They were extremely rude and very judgmental. They went way further than needed for our background checks as they searched through our social media accounts to try and find out "more information". The staff was very distasteful and unwilling to help us further in the search for a place to live (leaving us with limited choices as this is unfortunately one of the only agencies to rent from in Ashland). I would not recommend Bauer Management Realty.

Never any issues with them. Be a good tenant like you're supposed to be and all is well. Everyone is kind and as long as you communicate with them, they work with you through unexpected hardships. Every issue with the rental gets fixed in a timely manner and they seem to actually care about concerns you have. I'd recommend Bauer to anyone, couldn't ask for better landlords!
