My wife and daughter rented a unit on Suppiger for 8 years. The maintenance staff was fantastic, and the management team, especially Kristin, was always very friendly and responsive. Mark and Colby did a great job keeping the grounds and community land free of debris. When the water heater went out they had someone there replacing it the same day! When we moved out, Kristin was very accommodating and did a walk through to make sure everyone was on the same page. She was also very responsive when putting in work orders and other communications. I would highly recommend Frey for anyone looking to

Moved to Highland for a new career opportunity. Local references suggested Frey Properties as friendly, professional, honest, and maintaining remarkable homes. The unit rented includes fixtures, carpet and space improved over most single occupied structures. Frey Properties worked with my short schedule to move in and WOW'ed me with a home that far exceeded any expectations. The rent is reasonably priced, the maintenance is like clock work, and the customer service is beyond exceptional. I am pleased to call my unit..... Home!! Highly recommend!!!
