WARNING TO PROSPECTIVE RENTERS OF LONGMONT PROPERTY GROUP…read more This review concerns my family's experience renting 1303 S. Oak Court, Longmont, Colorado, a property managed by Longmont Property Group. Currently listed on Zillow. If you are considering renting this home or any property managed by Longmont Property Group - I strongly encourage you to do extensive research before signing a lease. My family's experience was one of the most stressful and heartbreaking experiences we've ever endured. If you are considering renting through Longmont Property Group, I strongly encourage you to do your homework before signing a lease. My experience with Andrea Lunzer and Longmont Property Group was one of the most stressful experiences my family has ever gone through. I trusted this company to treat my family fairly and objectively. Instead, I left feeling that documentation and evidence I provided disputing information from a previous landlord were not meaningfully considered before decisions were made that affected my family's housing. I have children, including a disabled son, and I repeatedly explained how devastating losing our home would be. During this process, I was told that Longmont Property Group was following the property owner's wishes. Regardless of who made the decision, my family was left trying to find housing on an extremely short timeline. One thing I found especially difficult was receiving emails expressing how "thankful" Longmont Property Group was to have had us as tenants and how much they had "enjoyed" having us as tenants, even after I asked that those comments stop. Reading those messages while my family was losing our home felt deeply upsetting and disconnected from what we were actually experiencing. I also urge prospective renters to carefully review every financial obligation before signing a lease. In my experience, the total cost of renting extended well beyond the advertised monthly rent because of additional deposits, fees, and other required charges. Make sure you understand every cost before committing. We lived in the home for less than two months and paid a **$4,800 security deposit**. As of the date of this review, I have not received my security deposit back, even though those funds are critically important for securing housing for my family. I also dispute charges for replacement keys and garage door openers. We left the keys and garage door openers on the kitchen counter when we vacated the property, and I have witnesses who can attest to that. Despite this, I was informed that I would be charged hundreds of dollars to replace them. I strongly disagree with those charges. My advice to anyone renting through Longmont Property Group: * Photograph and video every inch of the property before move-in and after move-out. * Save every email, text message, receipt, inspection report, and notice. * Get every agreement in writing. * Keep copies of absolutely everything. This review reflects my personal experience. I am organizing my emails, photographs, notices, inspection records, and other documentation into a complete timeline and will be sharing additional details supported by those records so prospective renters can review the facts for themselves. My family deserved fairness, professionalism, and a complete review of the evidence we provided. That was not our experience, and because of that, I cannot recommend renting through Longmont Property Group.

I really can't say enough good things about Dave Marvin. My fiancee and I were first time home…read morebuyers and in this crazy market, I really don't think we would've been able to do it without Dave in our corner, I think we would've given up. If you are trying to buy or sell a house, Dave is your guy, full stop. Let me list all the reasons why: - Dave is a regular guy who works for YOU. I know every realtor says that, but with Dave, we really felt like we had found someone who had our best interests at heart. He is a good listener and takes the time to understand what you want and don't want, what excites you, and what causes you stress. You will never feel like you are being steered in a direction you do not want to go but you will always get his advice on what he thinks is the best course of action. He is dedicated, responsive, and available to get things done when you need them done. - Dave has DEEP roots in this community. He knows this market inside and out. He knows the neighborhoods, the market trends, many of the other brokers, and pretty much everything else about the area. He knows everyone who is anyone in the real estate, financing, home improvement, and rental industries in Boulder county and the surrounding areas. Dave has taken the stress out of finding professionals in every area and everyone he has recommended has been as exceptional as he is. He has built up a network of the best of the best in this part of the world and his customers reap the benefits. - He is supremely knowledgeable, ethical, and savvy. He has been in this industry for a long time and understands how to get things done in a strategic but always above board way. He is a also a great teacher. As new buyers, there were a lot of things we did not understand about the real estate system, and Dave was always able to explain the complicated inner workings to us in a relatable way. Dave was able to coach us through the craziness that is the housing market today and we were able to buy a home that we love at a price we wanted to pay. If you want the best outcomes in real estate with the lowest possible amount of stress, work with Dave. You won't regret it.

I retained Marvin Gardens for tenant-placement services for my carriage house in Longmont. My…read moreexperience as a landlord has been very disappointing. Among my concerns: * My stated screening requirements were not followed. * I was told that pre-screening before showings could not be accommodated. * After I terminated the relationship, Marvin Gardens continued to act as though it remained in effect, including continuing to schedule showings. * I dispute fees that Marvin Gardens claims are owed. * I have filed a complaint with the Colorado Division of Real Estate and have retained the underlying emails and supporting documents. Based on my experience, I would not hire Marvin Gardens again.

Scarlett Neal I have…read moreworked with Scarlett Neal twice in the past two years, once to purchase a home and then to sell the same home two years later. Both transactions were perfectly executed. Scarlett has a way of making her clients feel that their deal is the most important thing she's working on. She kept me informed constantly, and has a great knack for getting the best terms available. I will continue to call on her if/when I look to purchase or sell property in the Boulder-Denver area.

When we listed with Scarlett Neal, we thought as the seller that we were her first priority. Every…read morepotential buyer she brought to see the land, she asked what we were willing to give up in order to sell. She was confrontational and argumentative about the covenants on other properties around us. Thank goodness we didn't end up selling under her contract. It would have pained me greatly to pay her a commission. I'm sure we will be better off selling it on our own.

Helping renters find housing seems to be her very charitable priority, by asking for lower rents than other property managers in the area and giving renter applicants every benefit-of-the-doubt and leases to people with questionable credit and criminal backgrounds and shaky references. Great for struggling homeless tenants! But a nightmare for landlords / homeowners! I highly recommend that people read Yelp's "not recommended review" that can only be seen by scrolling down and clicking on the link for it. I totally agree with it! - especially about the difficulty communicating with this agency and their frequent practice of lying (when backed against the wall when they don't honor their agreements). I tried to work with this agency for 3 years, but have learned from my mistake and will never be back! I had a WAY worse "nightmarish tenant" than the one described in Greg B.'s 3/24/2022 review, but instead of thanking BCR for helping me through it, I blame them for causing it - with their very lax tenant screening process! The extreme financial property losses I have suffered from my BCR nightmare far outweigh the small rental income I ever received. Homeowners and landlords BEWARE!!!

Over several days, I looked at rental houses in Longmont. At one of them, I met Claire, from…read moreBoulder County Rentals, and she showed me a lovely, and very comfortable place that I loved. What was even better is the remarkable customer experience I had with Claire. Unlike most of the other showings where the conversation was hurried, cold and transactional, this one was warm, welcoming and actually enjoyable. Claire was gracious, very knowledgeable and thoughtful - even helping me consider what it would be like living in the house on a daily basis to make sure it would be a good fit for me. It was like meeting a new best friend - easy and friendly. Being an executive coach, I was intrigued and asked about her business. She talked about her owner partner, Kristin, how much they love their work helping good people find good homes. A day later, I went to their office and met Kristin. These two are special - smart, warm, engaging - and they know serving their customers exceptionally well is essential. They get it. Michael L.
