Sheree Demming is the worst landlord I've ever had. She is a MISERY to work with, and my roommates and I have found her to be completely unreasonable and unapproachable. Her rent was very expensive, as was her security deposit, application fee, sublease fees, utilities etc. Living in her property was a nightmare.

Worst landlord EVER. She told us she wouldn't cash our January rent check until the first so we post date a check because we would be gone for the holidays. She cashed it EARLY, violating our verbal agreement and caused me to over draw my account. Then she could not be reached when I tried to contact her about it. Horrible woman. Read the other comments and avoid her properties at all costs.

DO NOT RENT FROM HER! Sheree does not give a damn about anyone except herself and money. She is the coldest landlord or human being, for that matter, that I have ever met. I was rushed into signing the lease by her during spring semester when she told me I had to let her know within a few days for the next school year. Near the end of spring semester I decided I needed to take a break from school and move back home due to my mental health and tried to talk to Sheree about possibly working something out especially since I (a college student) pay for my own rent&utilities without any help from my parents. She responded by saying "you and your guarantor are legally responsible for your rent and I will expect it in full and on time regardless of the circumstances." I understand that I signed the lease, but come on! show some compassion. I was already dealing with bad anxiety and panic attacks and this definitely made it worse. She could've suggested my options to figure out my situation or give me a way to pay out of the lease. I already had paid a security deposit and the fees. I luckily found someone to sublease my room for half the school year and she made the girl pay a security deposit too which is understandable but she wouldn't give mine back! She said that I would get it back after the whole lease is up but after reading all these reviews saying she finds any little reason to take money from the security deposit, I feel like I'm not even going to get it all back even though I haven't even stepped foot into the house except when i toured it.

I could not agree more with the complaints above. As soon as we resolve our dispute with Ms. Demming, I will be posting her emails verbatim. Those will say it all.

Sheree Demming is the ultimate bully. She bullies her tenants(college kids) but the parents are the ones paying. She is a coward because she doesn't talk to the adults at all. Her lease is ridiculous! Bills are ridiculous- she doesn't fix things that are broken yet goes back and charges you for them at the end of the year. She does not accept any wear and tear on the property as most landlords do. She charges for everything- don't expect to get your deposit back..ours was $4000.00 and she manages pick it apart! She makes a point that this is her retirement fund- she is ripping people off left and right. I should have done my research and didn't- shame on me ...BUT-who would expect this from a decent human being. Google her name and see how she gone after property of people who had their spouses pass away. All of this creates a picture of the true Sheree Demming. We need to boycott her property-don't rent from her!

There are no excuses for Sheree's practices. We are finally, now, living the nightmare with her, that SO MANY past tenants of hers (and parents) TRIED to warn us about. She is an unscrupulous, LYING, GREEDY businesswoman, who only "succeeds" because of her houses' proximities to Kilroys and the other wildly popular bars. C'mon kids! You are throwing your parents under the bus, when you agree to rent from this EXTORTIONIST! I can't say we're surprised at the outcome, now that my Sr. son has moved out, and moved on. BUT it's so aggravating and frustrating to be dealing with what we are now dealing with. POINT OF ADVICE! TAKE VIDEOS AND PICTURES of EVERYTHING on your Move-In Day, and the same, on your Move-Out Day, when you do your so called "walk through" And I mean, DOCUMENT AND PHOTOGRAPH every minute detail! Broken tiles in the kitchen floor, and pictures of EACH one of them. Broken handles on appliances, APPLIANCES that are BARELY working, should be videotaped, , , inside and out. At the end of your residency, she will attempt to replace all of her broken-down appliances with NEW ones, and guess who pays? You're right! The TENANT pays because you were the LAST ones to have he displeasure of living in her filthy, broken down house...all for the convenience of living within 3-4 blocks from the Bars. I wish you well with your NIGHTMARE with Sheree. If it's not too late, and you've not already signed a so-called "one-way Lease" with this Thief, then I STRONGLY suggest you look elsewhere. At the end of your residency, YOU WILL BE SORRY YOU EVER LIVED IN ONE OF HER HOUSES, and so will your parents be sorry! Just Google her name, and you'll discover a wealth of information. You'll also become very familiar with the Department of Student Legal Services!

Please, please do not rent from Demming Properties in Bloomington, Indiana. The charges that were "so called" from damage; Repainted entire wall due to one scuff mark. Utility bills that are $700-800 month in the Winter due to little or no insulation. Demming Properties should be ashamed of taking advantage of college kids and ultimantly their parents who end up paying.
