I highly recommend Ziprent as a good deal for owners who want the legal backing of a legal lease…read moreand tenant screening. The pictures they took of the house were great and the price was much fairer than local companies. I don't use their monthly management feature right now, just their rent collection ( for only $25/month!) but if I were unable to perform maintenance I would. They always answer their phones and emails right away. I've been burned before by "nice" people who end up being very irresponsible tenants who wouldn't pay rent or who break their leases (by bringing animals, hoarding). Advertising with a property management company keeps people away who don't qualify and have bad tenant histories. Worth the very fair price to be protected.

As a landlord, I found ziprent extremely efficient and professional. Here is why you should…read moreconsider them: - They listen to potential tenant's concerns and provide anonymized feedback to you - 99% of the time they will pickup the phone and talk to you - They respond to emails fast and really consider what you are asking for - **Most important ** they don't charge random add-on fees to the service. Example, if something breaks and they hire a contractor to fix your property, they don't charge 12% fee like most do. In other words if you spend $1000 in repairs, most companies will charge you an extra $120 for the convenience. - Flat $125 monthly fee and no %

If something breaks she communicates the issue fast and keeps my tenant happy. It's nice to not need to worry about my property. Thank you everyone at 5 Star Property Management.

If I could give zero stars, I would…read more My experience with Delores was extremely disappointing. Ironically, when I first became a client, she was very friendly, attentive, and responsive. However, once I informed her that I would no longer be using her services, her attitude toward me changed noticeably. Communications became more dismissive, and interactions that were once professional became increasingly unpleasant. When I questioned accounting discrepancies and requested clarification regarding owner statements and financial records, I was told it was "simple math" rather than being provided a clear explanation. As a property owner, I expect transparency and professionalism, not to be talked down to for asking reasonable questions about my own finances and property. I also experienced issues regarding property inspections and move-out conditions. During a walk-through, trash had been left behind by a tenant. I was later informed that no trash was present, despite surveillance footage showing otherwise. Incidents like this made it difficult for me to trust the information being provided. What concerned me most was the lack of accountability and professionalism when legitimate concerns were raised. Instead of addressing issues directly, I often received dismissive responses and explanations that conflicted with the facts available to me. I hired a property management company to protect my investment and provide peace of mind. Instead, I found myself spending time verifying information, following up on concerns, and seeking answers that should have been readily available. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this company to other property owners seeking transparency, professionalism, and respectful communication.

The maintenance manager has many years of experience and can actually fix indoor, outdoor, appliances, etc. He doesn't have to go out to a property multiple times to fix things. The staff is responsive to everyone--tenant, owner, vendor, potential tenants and owners. I have had dealings with property management companies that are the complete opposite. I'm surprised those companies are still in business. Dishonest, non responsive, overcharging owners, illegal practices, in lawsuits because many of their staff are not qualified for their positions and do not know the rules and regulations. They send out multiple maintenance techs to a property to fix something and they did not fix it--but the company still charges the owner? Of course a few people will do a review to complain about Parkwood but there are many many happy and satisfied tenants and owners. Way more than a couple disgruntled tenants who most likely didn't read their lease where everything they need to know is written in black and white and signed by them. Parkwood is the BEST choice. 5 stars. 10 out of 10.

I never thought I would have to take someone to court, but that's the process I'm in right now. RCW…read more59.18.280 states that the landlord has 21 days from the time the rental agreement ends and the tenant vacates the unit to postmark the return of the deposit or a written statement detailing why portions of the deposit were withheld. If the letter or bill gives estimates of repair costs, but not actual repair costs, your landlord failed to notify you correctly under the law even if your landlord gave you those estimates within 21 days. The court case that says estimates are not good enough is Goodeill v. Madison Real Estate, 191 Wash.App. 88 (2015). So I'm entitled to my entire security deposit and I have yet to receive it. What's worse is that when sharing the law and case information to NRB, the response I got was "This is how we've always done it." Way to tell me that you've been breaking the law for a LONG time. So as a result, all of my friends who are moving to tacoma, I steer them far away from NRB. so why two stars instead of one? Well, while we were there, things seemed fine. They were generally very responsive when we needed them to be, although I wasn't a fan of the occasional need to have inspections done. That was weird and the first time I've encountered it as a renter since college.

If you want to rent with these folks, expect to need a lawyer to deal with them.
