Our family is so pleased with our new home in Eagle River, Alaska. My husband and I grew up in this little town but moved away after high school. We are excited to return here again with our children to begin a new adventure in this beautiful house. We were actually living outside of the U.S. in Estonia when we found out we were moving back "home". We weren't even sure if we'd be able to purchase a home without physically being in the country. But Rowena and Erika made it happen for us viewing lots and lots of homes for us. Being in a different time zone was a challenge but Rowena and Erika were always quick to respond to us via email and WhatsApp. It was a pleasure to work with such a knowledgeable and professional team. We are forever grateful to Rowena, Erika and team for helping us purchase the perfect house for our family.

I rented 9715 Independence Dr, Unit B308, and had a very poor experience with Real Property…read moreManagement. The unit had been vacant for over 6 months prior to my move in and had not been cleaned. Despite this, per my lease agreement, I was required to hire a professional cleaner for the carpets and unit before moving out. I requested receipts or proof of cleaning from management, but they provided nothing. The unit also had no heat when I moved in, and the furnace was temporarily rigged instead of properly repaired. Later, the blower failed, taking over three months to replace. I also went about three months without a working washer and dryer, and there was visible mold on the curtains which I replaced. Keep pictures and records of everything! Maintenance requests were often canceled, and repairs required landlord approval, causing long delays. This was one of the worst rental experiences I've had. Future renters should be aware of these ongoing maintenance and management issues.

My son rented a property managed by Real Property Management Last Frontier for two years. During…read morethat time, they consistently ignored his maintenance concerns. However, when he moved out, they charged him for repairs which he had previously reported and that were never addressed. Some of the charges were questionable, yet he was denied access to any photos or documentation of the alleged damage. To make matters worse, my son is in the military and had been relocated out of state at the time of this dispute, making it difficult for him to contest the charges in court in Alaska. So he had no choice but to give them his money. I believe this company took advantage of his situation, and I fear that other tenants may face similar treatment. I strongly caution anyone considering renting from this company.

All was well until the agent discovered I require a seeing-eye dog for mobility. She then decided that not only was I not going to be selected, but also I was not going to get my money back as the agent had initially promised. They deliberately misrepresent the property and process to scam victims, to separate people from their money for a product that does not exist. There were multiple crimes committed in this interaction. I have saved all communications and will do anything I can to keep them from preying on more unsuspecting people.

Carrie was the first property manager we ever worked with. We had nothing but problems working with…read moreher. She was inconsistent, flaky, uncooperative, and overall just very indifferent towards us, our renters and our home. She did not serve in our best interest when managing our home. The first set of tenants signed a traditional 12 month lease. However, Carrie drew up a lease for our second set of tenants for 6 months, going month to month afterwards, and then told the tenants that we wanted them out after the 6 months was up. We were never made aware of this, did not request that at all, and did not even receive a copy of the lease agreement until we fired her in May. We threatened to go after her for being in breach of her contract in order to obtain the necessary documents to move forward with a new company. We only found out today July 26th, that the tenants were moving out of our house, after they gave us no notice at all. Carrie told them they did not have to provide any kind of notice since we knew that they were supposed to be out of the house by the end of the month and we didn't know anything about this until the new property management company called me while I was on my way to pick up my son from the sitter after work. Carrie never performed a single inspection on our property in the 15 months she managed it. She did video walkthroughs of the property but never had either set of tenants sign any kind of documentation and never provided us with any kind of report or copy of one. I did not even know who the tenants were and had to pull two of the three names off of a cashflow worksheet and threaten to message them via social media just to obtain their names and contact info. She would ignore me until I threatened her like this several times during the month of May after we gave her our 30 day notice. We had an online portal that were were supposed to be able to access all documents and tenant information when necessary, but there was nothing in our monthly statements except the generic cash flow worksheets. I know now-- having a different property management company that uses Appfolio-- how much information we were missing now that I have a comparison of what these statements are supposed to look like. Carrie did a poor job of communicating with us about anything going on with our home. I informed her when we hired her that we had never rented out our home before and needed transparency in regards to what was going on, especially since we were not physically in the state of AK. However, Carrie would tell us that something broke, and then wouldn't follow up with us and let us know if it ever got fixed. Sometimes things would be fixed immediately and other times it would be weeks or months later. One maintenance request we submitted to her upon hire did not get addressed until May and sat broken for 15 months. We had to have things fixed multiple times, she would hire handymen to do work for "discounted" rates but then things were constantly breaking. We were being charged for maintenance requests from having a maintenance worker come to our home and show the tenants simple things like how to turn on the fireplace, or replace the batteries in the smoke detector, adjusting the closet doors, or replacing closet door knobs. Things that should have been handled in between tenants. Often we would get no rent money or half of a rent check due to maintenance issues that we knew nothing about. The month we fired her we got $136. The month before that we got nothing at all. Out of $1600. Carrie would only communicate via text, citing it was the easiest way to contact her... but would not reply to messages for hours or days at a time. Sometimes even responding late at night or sending text messages about things that were broken over the weekend. Carrie would repeatedly forget our conversations, forget important information regarding our home, forget to contact me or the tenants, and then excuse her behavior by saying "didn't I tell you I have a concussion?" "Did I tell you I was in an accident and I'm having a hard time remembering things?" She did this on a regular basis. One time, I asked a question about something and she told me to stop texting her and to leave her alone. Then she started sending me screenshots of someone else who had been messaging her and told me that it was an accident and that her response was meant for someone else. Carrie was not only consistently bad at her job, but she always went our of her way to diminish my concerns as a homeowner and told me that I was high maintenance and expected too much from her by asking for clear communication regarding our home. Carrie is unprofessional, rude, and incompetent but makes you feel like you're a crazy person for expecting anything different. Filing a formal complaint with the BBB against her immediately, and possibly taking her to court for doing such a poor job.

Do not rent from them unless you like fixing your own maintenance problems. This company has MAJOR…read morecommunication issues. They have "business hours" during which you are allowed to call them; except half the time you get their after hours message anyways. Also, they don't allow you to leave a message - their automated system *claims* you can leave a message, but if you try to do so, it tells you "Sorry, no one is available to take your call." and kicks you out. The phone menu also gives you the option to call the 24 hour maintenance line, for all the good it'll do you. They don't do any maintenance themselves, they'll just write down your issue and pass it on. They can't even tell you when the issue might be dealt with. Buyer's took over the building I'm renting in about four years ago, and in all that time I only time I met the "building manager" was this one time she unlocked my front door and barged in, while I was sick and sleeping. They were having some minor issue with the fire alarm system and she thought that gave her the right to enter unannounced.

Leslie is THE BEST!! I've worked with agents in California and Alaska for both buying and selling…read more I've never worked with anyone as good as Leslie. She's incredible! I contacted her during COVID, months before I moved to Alaska. She answered me within an hour and after that, she kept in touch for months as I got ready to move. She spent a lot of time getting to know what I wanted. I arrived in the summer when the market was booming. Every agent in town was super busy, Leslie included. I knew that was happening and I had lowered my expectations. I was ready to do a lot of my own research and driving around. But Leslie had me seeing places the first weekend in town! She did a FANTASTIC job showing me places I might like. She never schmoozed me. She never tried to upsell me. Once we ran into another agent while seeing a place and he was a super schmoozy, slick kind of guy and it made me all the more grateful for Leslie's approach. When she showed me my place she said she thought I was going to like it--and sure enough, I loved it, and now it's mine. :) She knew exactly what I would love. The neighborhood, the price, the style, all of it. She remembered every little detail (for example--I wasn't interested in a townhouse or condo that didn't allow dogs). She walked me through the offer, counter-offers, loan, inspection, and more. She helped me get an early-occupy deal which I *really* wanted. When our first title company got delayed she found a new one! She didn't have to do that--it wasn't her fault the market was backed up. She would answer my texts at 10pm on Friday night, 9am Saturday, and everything in between. She knows a ton of people in Anchorage and she knows the town well. I hope to buy another place in a year or two and I wouldn't even consider using another agent!

We were initially told that cats were allowed, but when we later tried to confirm and move forward, we were told otherwise. This contradiction created unnecessary stress and made planning extremely difficult. I strongly recommend getting everything in writing and not relying on verbal confirmations. As someone in the military, stability and clear communication are especially important when it comes to housing. Unfortunately, that consistency wasn't there, which made the situation more difficult than it needed to be. Toward the end of the lease, we received a non-renewal notice without any explanation, despite following the lease terms. While they may not be required to give a reason, the lack of transparency reflects poorly on how tenant relationships are handled. Move-out expectations are very strict, including mandatory professional carpet cleaning and specific vendor restrictions, which can add unexpected costs if you're not fully prepared. The property itself was okay, but the overall experience with management was disappointing. Between the inconsistent policies and communication issues, I would be cautious about renting through them and would advise future tenants to document everything carefully.
