Wander Homes

HUGE RED FLAG! AVOID WANDER HOMES
2234 NW 24th Ave.
Portland, OR 97210
(Owned by Mark Madden of EKO Living & WDC Properties)

Let me tell you about my absolutely TERRIBLE experience with Wander Homes in Portland, OR, owned by Mark Madden – the same owner as EKO Living and WDC Properties, both of which have mountains of awful reviews that should have been my first warning. Please, PLEASE be extremely careful if you’re even considering renting from them and scrutinize every single word of their agreement. You’ll likely need to make significant changes to protect yourself, as my experience was riddled with problems from day one.

This company purchased our rental house and apparently did a “refurbishment” without pulling proper work permits. This led to some serious safety concerns when I had independent inspections done. I discovered issues with the natural gas connections, including a downstairs fireplace that they explicitly told us was safe to use – which turned out to be a lie!

To add insult to injury, they actually blamed ME for submitting what they considered “too many” maintenance requests. As if faulty and potentially dangerous issues were my fault!

From the very beginning, we had significant problems with this company, and honestly, it got to the point where I genuinely worried about my safety and the safety of my children while living in their property.

Do yourself a massive favor and steer clear of Wander Homes. The lack of professionalism, the disregard for safety, and the complete lack of communication from the top down are deeply concerning. Learn from my mistake and look elsewhere for a rental in Portland!
