Rent MSU has been so great to work with the past three years I have lived here in Mankato. I lived in the Quarters apartments for two years and College Town for one year and I have had great experiences with both communities. They make the leasing process easy and have great staff at each of their locations. I would highly recommend renting a house or apartment through Rent MSU as they have so many great options to choose from.

This company is horrible and mismanaged, especially financially. They take advantage of you, BARLEY communicate, and screw rent up then charge you extra for THEIR OWN MISTAKES. My house is so messed up we have to have the thermostat set at 90 just to have a somewhat warm house, and that's only a tiny problem compared to everything else. The only 5 star reviews for this company is because they bribe people with free t-shirts and the proof of this is the guy that literally put his t-shirt size in his review. AVOID THIS COMPANY rent with Atwood or anything else, it is 10x better. Trust me, DO NOT RENT WITH THIS COMPANY.

My roommates and I just signed a lease for our new apartment through RentMSU and we are so excited to move in! The process of getting in touch and getting tours for multiple places was easy and they always make sure to reply to our texts and questions very quickly! Overall, a very good company!

I love RentMSU, they are super professional and respond in a timely manner. Morgan the leasing manager is great with tours! She gave my friends and I a tour and she had our leases to us later that day.
