I was emailed a list of properties that hadn't come up on my searches and now I am in a brand new community outside of the Galleria that I am happy to call home!!! Now time to look for new furniture with the money I saved on my move in deal! Thank you Ms. Hardy, it was a pleasure working with you and I will refer any friends that are in need of a new place so they can have a smooth transition Like the one I had.

Stay far away from this company. They are simply not in it to win it. They are unmotivated…read more I found this company on Yelp and filled out a questionnaire on what I was looking for in an apartment. Then, I got an auto reply by someone named "Melanie". I tried responding back via text and calling but I don't think she is a real person because she simply would never respond back. So, I kept calling the main number and her number several times. I also sent texts to "Melanie". They simply would not pickup the phone or answer my messages. I am in the process of relocating from Chicago to Houston. So, I decided to give an apartment finding company a chance. In Chicago, there are a ton of these services. They actually will pick up the phone on the first ring and meet with you within days (usually the same day). This company not so much. I did end up finding an apartment on my own. It was tough but I did it with no help what so ever.

I arrived…read morein Houston on Sunday night and realized I had booked a bunch of 1-stars off of apartment.com Started to panic as I realized I had no idea where the value in the city was. Called Fredell at 8 pm on a Sunday and she answered immediately, got a feel for my situation and started setting up bookings with quality apartments - that night. Next day was easy, she told me where to go and lined up the appointments and even thought about lunch. I was able to find my apartment in less than 24 hours and it's all because of her. Could not speak more highly of Fredell and the work she did. 11/10 would highly recommend and would repeat.

The location is fantastic, very close to the Galleria and 610. The apartments are charming, and Ben and Gloria are the nicest and most accommodating people you will ever meet. They do everything they can to make your stay pleasant and comfortable. While not being the newest or most elaborate apartments, they are clean, charming and functional. Afton Gardens are located in a very upscale, residential neighborhood, and safety is never a factor. The apartments are gated, and even though your car is not in a gated area, safety is never an issue. Being a woman living alone, this is an extremely important factor for me. I come to Houston from Ohio every winter for a couple of months. I think Afton Gardens is absolutely the best deal in town! I wouldn't consider staying anyplace else while visiting the Houston area. So, if you are looking for short term, furnished housing in Houston, you have come to the right place in choosing Afton Gardens.

He even asked an old client about his experience at a property I was considering. Kevin called every property I was interested to get information before I toured them with him about rent and square footage on their units in my price range. He took notes on all the properties he called and gave them to me so I would not feel overwhelmed with details. This allowed me to fully concentrate on what I thought about each property in order to decide if it was a right fit for me. You will be so glad you got Kevin's help!!! I would happily enlist his help again anytime I am considering moving or recommend him to anyone else!!!

ULR seems to come highly praised however my personal experience has been quite annoying. I asked an…read moreagent over two years ago to help me look for an apartment within a specific price range. Once I no longer needed his service (I found my own place), he continued to spam my E-mail account with invitations to rental/homebuying events to promote his business. I had to ask him a few times with a call to the office to request this to stop. It started with LinkedIn, and then through other similar social media mediums, then E-mail. Finally the office took care of it and I had to take the extra step to block him. Then, two years later, another agent who connected with me through LinkedIn as well began to do the same practice. In no way did I ever ask to opt-in to any of these invitations. That means I'm on another distribution list that I never agreed to. She is sending Evites--without any opt-out buttons. I had to contact ULR again, and another agent profusely apologized to me. I'm not into this spamming marketing practice because quite honestly, it cheapens a business and creates a desperate image. Do some of these agents like getting cold calls from random numbers themselves and pressured into something they don't need? I don't think any of us do! So it would imply that with common sense, you shouldn't do what you don't enjoy yourself, to people who aren't clearly requesting your service. The agent who helped me get myself removed from a distribution list (again) says that she doesn't practice those methods herself and aren't exemplary of ULR as a whole, but no one seems to be encouraging or reminding other agents to stop the SPAM method. I never experience this when I contact an agent through HAR. Bottom line: I get it, it works once on a blue moon, but if you're about branding yourself as a high quality agent, this spam stuff is not a lot of people's cup of tea. Try this instead, reach out to a potential client directly and ask if they're currently interested in renting/buying or would like to remain in touch in the future if neither are currently an option. Don't force me into your impersonal mass distribution list against my will. Here's the Federal Trade Commmissin FAQ on SPAM stating you must include information on how to opt-out of receiving future E-mail and honor opt-out requests immediately: https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/blogs/business-blog/2015/08/candid-answers-can-spam-questions

The refrigerator was fully functional and working perfectly. ​When I requested legitimate proof of the repair costs and an itemized calculation factored for depreciation, they completely blocked further communication without providing any evidence. Instead, they told me to take legal action if I had a problem. ​Despite paying over $100 in management fees every single month during my tenancy, they are now demanding an additional $1,400. They are refusing to return my security deposit unless I agree to this unfair charge. ​Prospective residents, be highly aware of their predatory move-out practices.
