You sign a…read morecontract to rent your place through them, they make all these promises, and deliver none of them. I went to great lengths to help my dad deal with the lack of support he got from this company when listing his apartment. The owner is incredibly rude and unprofessional. Based on her behavior and reactions to emails/messages, you can tell she regularly gets negative feedback on the way she runs her business. If she had pride in her company at all, she wouldn't treat her customers in a rude and demeaning manner. I got feedback from many potential renters saying that they would prefer not to work through rentnoho, and now I know why. I do not recommend this company. If you're new to the area, you're better off getting an apartment through Facebook marketplace than this company.

If I could give this business zero stars, I would…read more I applied for an apartment through RentNoho in good faith. I submitted my full application, provided all financial documentation required (including tax documents), and handed over more than $1,000 in money orders as instructed. Over the next week, I experienced repeated delays, shifting standards, and inconsistent communication. Despite meeting every listed requirement, I was later told additional materials (like savings documentation and guarantor income) were required--none of which were mentioned at the start. When I asked for clarification or requested basic accountability, I was met with defensiveness and unprofessional replies. After withdrawing my application due to these disorganized and untransparent practices, I received an email blaming me for the confusion and implying I had been abrasive--when in fact, I had simply been asking for the very professionalism they failed to provide. When I mentioned my experience to a local business owner, they immediately shared that RentNoho has a long-standing poor reputation in the area. After doing further research, I found similar complaints online, including a negative rating from the Better Business Bureau. If you're a prospective tenant in Northampton or the surrounding area, be extremely cautious before working with this agency. They operate with minimal accountability, poor communication, and a pattern of blaming applicants for their internal disorganization. This is not how housing access should be handled--especially in a community like this. ***update*** After sharing my experience, Sharon Heston sent me an email referencing my review with sarcasm ("Nice yelp"), cut off communication, and implied she has local influence ("I've been in the Valley 53 years" and "I have MANY folks I speak to"). This kind of reaction isn't just unprofessional--it reads as intimidation. I've already reported her. If you've had a similar experience, I encourage you to do the same. When housing access is involved, these tactics cross a line. File a report here: * Better Business Bureau: https://www.bbb.org/file-a-complaint * MA Attorney General: https://www.mass.gov/how-to/file-a-consumer-complaint * MA Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD): https://www.mass.gov/how-to/file-a-complaint-of-discrimination * HUD Fair Housing: https://www.hud.gov/program_offices/fair_housing_equal_opp/online-complaint This isn't just bad business--it borders on intimidation and abuse.

I Highly recommend Robinson Real estate and the agent Jen! She went above and beyond to help me…read morefind the right place within my budget. She evn showed me places they hadn't listed yet! She was more than helpful along with the move in process as I had many questions since this is my first apartment.

I never leave reviews anywhere but the hard work being done at Robinson real estate definitely deserves recognition!! I will be recommending Robinson to anyone I can! Can't thank Jen and Robinson enough!

Grown extremely frustrated with them not returning calls, refusing to talk on the phone and only email. Being 3 hours away too didn't help but with this amount of money involved i would think they would be responsive. I was getting ready to either do an Air BNB or hotel for a few weeks till we found something. Just on a last ditch effort reached out to Robinsons late on a Friday night. Monday morning had a return call, Tuesday viewed the apartment and applied, Wednesday afternoon had conformation and accepted application. I really can't say enough about Jen and how absolutely professional, fast acting, and quick to respond to our communications. People with cash to put down that day and great credit scores should not have to deal with the nonsense of the various other rental companies in the area. I will vouch for Jen at Robinsons any day of the week keep up the great work the community needs people like Jen and companies like Robinsons.

SHAME!!!!!!!!! I purchased my first few homes from Murphy's…read morebecause they were local and part of the community. Now they are the agents for over 30 single-family ranch homes listed for over $1.3 million EACH off Glendale Road in Florence. Haven't the residents on Glendale Road suffered enough with the dump? The unsafe road? Why is a local real estate business working with a greedy, belligerent builder to make this area more unsafe?? So much for advocating for what's best for the residents of Northampton! I guess they are only worried about lining their pockets. Craig Della Penna was the realtor on my third house. I thought he was an upstanding man, but I guess as he ages money is his only motivation. It's a shame This complex is terrible for Northampton and most of all it's going to make an unsafe road deadly dangerous. Shame on you, Murphy's! I thought Northampton was worth more than that!! This is supposed to be affordable housing! Please explain to me how $1.4 million is affordable???

I do not recommend working with Ilene Berezin to sell your house. I wanted to sell "as is" but…read moreevery time a buyer asked for me to do/pay for something, Ilene told me I had to and didn't suggest negotiating costs. So, I ended up selling the house not "as is". It shouldn't have been listed as such, as there was nothing wrong with it and I didn't realize that it would scare off buyers. Also, she listed the house too low; after a couple of months I insisted she raise the price. Ended up selling $13,000 higher that she originally listed. Her knowledge of the market was inadequate - the house should have been listed higher at the beginning. Should have sold for at least $8,000 more than it did. She's a buyers agent - seemed to be more accommodating to the buyer and I felt she didn't adequately represent me, the seller.

Erin Maclean was our buyer's agent in our search for our first home in the upper Pioneer Valley…read more She was an excellent resource and partner to us in figuring out what we wanted/needed in a home and then finding local lenders to get the best financing possible. When we found the home for us, she helped us craft the best possible offer to secure the house and give us protections in case there were hidden issues. She recommended a really thorough local inspector that not only gave us an orientation on the systems of our house but identified issues large and small and gave us confidence to proceed with the purchase. During closing she helped us make sure nothing was amiss with the house and has since even given us a list of contractors to help us with the home projects we can't DIY. Erin is professional, responsive and was an advocate for our best interest throughout the whole process - we can't recommend her enough!

Stay away from this place, I refuse to call them a business. I called today to complain about the…read moredecline of this property over the past 5 years and one of the tenants visitors that likes to do 40 mph through our parking lot while kids are playing outside. Apparently their office manager or whoever the unprofessional twit was that I spoke to, lacked the mental capacity to handle the simplest of issues and hung up on me. If they don't start doing the very basic tasks of the company that they claim to be, after the holidays, I'm going to make a push to have them removed and find a new management company. Prior to this management company we had Pancione who was absolutely worthless., And merged with this company that is just as bad if not worse. This is a condo community. We don't rent WE ALL OWN HERE! YOU, DON'T. Which means the likelihood of me taking your shit is zero seeing as though we pay you to do a service. I've already spoke to most of residents here and they agree. just for context. Last time there was a Condo meeting they wanted Pancione out of here, but do most of the board being elderly there was never a push, though everybody agreed. most of us grew up in an era where if you don't do your job, you lose it. I've been here for 15 years and from what I've seen most Management companies do the bare minimum and look for reasons to raise our fees. Who are you to raise our fees when you don't own the property? This is a small property, easily manageable with my construction/maintenance background. Between me and one of the other owners with a similar background, along with the dozens of landscapers and contractors I know, we'll have no problem handling this property. It's real simple start doing your job or I'll make it my mission to have you removed from here and do it myself if need be. Seeing as though most of the management companies around here just wanna collect a check it would probably be worth our effort to crack them books open and see exactly what we're paying for, because I know plenty of people that wouldn't mind making some extra money and will do it at a fair cost. there's 20 minutes of my life I'll never get back because you people can't just do the right thing. There's plenty of shit reviews here saying the same thing. Great reputation you guys for yourself. Speaks volumes.
