Waited til the day of closing to finally call me and say "OK I guess we have everything so can you come in this morning (an hour's notice!) to sign. If we come across anything, we'll contact you later." I swear this was the first time they did a closing. Had 4 different people "working" but none seemed to know what was going on and what they were waiting on. They're emails went right to Junk Mail. Must have been karma!

They took the screen that they originally brought, which was for a smaller glass door. The new screen was to be ordered, yet it has been over 9 months and we still have not gotten the screen. I can't stress how many emails and phone calls that have been made, with the promise that they are working on it, but we haven't gotten any of our needed repair/replacements. Both the local Clayton Homes on Martin Way, Lacey Wa.,and corporate offices in Oregon have been involved, with no satisfaction. I would never buy from this company, they are not honest and have no integrity.

If you are an owner and looking for a management company to handle your lease/rental you need to…read moreread this! We trusted Welcome Home Rentals with our property and signed a one year lease. From the get-go we were lied to! Tiana, the owner, told us so many things that either didn't happen or that were extremely misleading. From when we get our money each month to "we come first" which was the biggest lie of all. They guaranteed "monthly drive by's" since we would be out of state and couldn't check on the exterior condition of the property. There were a total of two drive by's, both after we insisted because we had a friend drive by and the yard looked horrible! Overgrown weeds, lawn, and shrubs. Too much to list but I'd say the worst part of the experience was when we were toward the end of the lease and we needed to show the property because we were selling it. She was "afraid of the tenant" and didn't want to send notifications to open the house for inspectors or appraisals that we needed to schedule! Overcharged us for cleaning when we moved out even though we spent hours deep cleaning and there was nothing left to clean! Even charged us over $400 for her "landscaping company" to clean up the yard which was left weeded, mowed, and all shrubs trimmed the day before! Read the other reviews and you will see that we are not alone! Their priority is to make money and overcharge both the homeowners and the tenants, that's it!

The 70 year old privately-owned septic system in my community was failing, and there was no way the home-owners could afford to replace it. Ammerstone took the bull by the horns. They contacted the community, let us know our options, and facilitated our decission making. Once we decided to pursue connecting our house to the City sewer system, they negotiated the contract, stayed on top of the sewer design and kept the community in the loop throughout the entire construction process. We are now on City sewer and I could not be more immpressed with how Ammerstone handle this entire very complicated process. They are the BEST!

Their technology in customer service is antiquated as they only receive paper checks and just within the last two years started using email and cell phones as a means of communication with their customers.

She offered many useful suggestions, and I'm sure she would respond to questions even now. We would give her 10 stars if it were possible.
