I met Jim Marr to view some apartments in Winthrop, MA. He was friendly and showed my fiance and I…read moreseveral. We decided that day to sign a lease for the first one we had seen. Everything went smoothly and Jim was able to negotiate a little later move-in date for us. Unfortunately, a few days after we signed the lease, we had an incident in the neighborhood and decided that we did not want to remain in that town. Jim Marr informed me that the landlord would not return my last month's rent and began insisting that I had given them the first month's rent, which was not true. Now I am embroiled in a complicated and expensive legal process to attempt to retrieve at least part of the money I left with them. Overall, I found the experience to be completely disheartening. We're not talking about telling the landlord a day or two before moving in and then backing out - it was 11 days before we were scheduled to move and he's made no reasonable effort to re-rent the apartment. Do yourselves a favor and stay away! If you have ANY kind of issue where you can't take an apartment from them, they'll make sure you don't get your money back!

Very very pushy habits, I experienced such a Hostile experience with this agency- very shady very sketchy, as I'm prepared to launch an ethics code with board of realtors against these dishonorable company! From day one, they pushed and pressured my Agent to obtain keys *****earlier to avoid obtaining prior****** to the Long holiday weekend The priority shifted to convenience on behalf of the NEW prospective tenants, vs the existent occupants- and the landlord needs The focus was to Get Keys as Promptly as possible, BY pass any essential details in between in a very highly dysfunctional approach Laurent Had a Nerve to ASK for the *****Commission check PRIOR to even having his clients move in***** He figured to obtain keys fast, and get Paid RAPIDLY prior to the 1st of September which he knows is (((((Prohibitive and also UN lawful)))) Above all, he was aggressive on the phone when I informed him, his boss would be briefed on the subject matter and valid warranted feedback would be posted on Google, Yelp and Zillow Laurent created a NIGHTMARE experience to the old occupants, and to my broker who had an awful experience with Laurent as well

I reached out to Courtney on a whim after reading many great reviews about other's experience with her. Shedidnotdisappoint! She was extremely responsive, honest and I felt she always had my best interest at heart. She clearly knows the Boston rental market. She managed my expectations and also advocated for me time and time again. I had a very small window to secure an apartment post 9/1 and Courtney helped me find a place in my top location with all the amenities I was hoping for. If you're looking for an apartment in Boston, Courtney is your girl!

Rich Rosa was fantastic.

If you're an engineer type like me, he'll give you a spreadsheet market analysis, if you are are more mood and feel, he will speak to that. 5) Great negotiator 6) Super punctual and responsive, we pulled off a 30-day closing window which wouldn't have been possible w/o Rich's professionalism I could go on. So glad we found him.

He was very thorough when looking at houses with us and pointed out things to look out for that we would have otherwise missed. He worked diligently on our behalf from the time we hired him as our agent through closing.

I would recommend Rich to anyone looking to buy a home in Greater Boston!

We had so many moments when we could've put in an offer, or we could've settled for less, but Melanie did not allow that to happen. With her expertise and her ability to just fully understand what we truly wanted, she was able to give us advice that was thoughtful and she would not let us settle for less than what we wanted! Even when we had questions or any concerns, Melanie was super responsive and made us feel like we were her only clients, even though we know this is far from true. She really helped guide us through the whole home buying process and made sure we felt 100% comfortable before moving forward in the process. She helped us get our offer accepted on a home where she could tell that we could really picture ourselves, and 4 months in, my husband and I couldn't be happier living in our new home!

He always returned calls in a timely manner and responded quickly to any maintenance requests. It could get complicated since Dorado owned my unit but not the building; Matt was an excellent liaison and advocate for his tenants when issues arose with the building's management. Most importantly, he was able to work through, and find solutions to, almost any situation. I live in Tulsa now and really miss his approachable management style.

I've used The Rent Connection twice for help in finding an apartment as well as tenants in…read moreWinthrop. The confusing part is that they post a lot on craigslist so if you respond to one of them they get the info they need from you and set up a ton of viewings. When I moved to the Throp I had no idea how to even look, the owner (i think) was great. He will bring you around in the Rent Connection vehicle to as many apartments he lists within your budget. I saw about 10 of them in one day and by the end, i took out my checkbook, paid th fee (half months rent) and the first and last months rent. They also do all lease things, so you sign the lease etc and may never meet the landlord unless you want to. On the other side of things, I was looking for a tenant and they found me a suitable one fairly quickly for the amount of rent we were seeking. Again, they arrange the lease and move in and all costs + first and last months etc. As a landlord you would still pay I think half months rent.

PLEASE look this company up on the Better Business Bureau before using them! They are not accredited, have an F rating, and have MULTIPLE complaints of being a scam business who refuse to refund deposits. When we first contacted them we were told the original apartment was no longer available (typical bait and switch scheme as outlined by multiple other people on this page) and were then sent other listings that in hindsight seemed too good to be true. After doing more research on the company and finding out that across Reddit, BBB, yelp, and Google reviews people have been scammed we decided to end communications and not see the apartment. I advise all others to do their own research into the business before using them!
