My first long-distance rental property was truly in good hands because of Eddie. We've had a great…read moreexperience working with him, and we originally found him through Yelp recommendations - now I understand why he's so highly rated. Eddie has built his business on a strong reputation, and after working with him for the past few years, I've seen firsthand why. He is trustworthy, respectful, and genuinely cares about both the property and the tenants. His communication is excellent and he is always responsive, which is especially important for me as a long-distance investor. I'm grateful to have him as my property manager and have never regretted the decision. His company also handles construction and helps find good investment properties, which adds even more value. I highly recommend Eddie and his services. He's not only a great property manager but also a great person - and a dedicated father as well.

Nancy and New Scotland Management, a middleman with DBO (?) filled out rental assistance paperwork and gave me grace periods for rent payments. My rent was not increased, possibly because I was going through cancer treatment and financial issues. Also, my studio was super tiny. I will never forget what Jennifer, Nancy and Dan did for me. Management promptly addressed smoking in the building. They also fixed a broken spring on the front door. It took a LOT of prodding over many months to get them to fix a heating problem (too hot, not too cold), but they did eventually fix it. Once DBO took over, common areas all but stopped getting cleaned. Prior to DBO coming in, the entryway, little lobby area and stairwell were vacuumed, mopped and dusted very regularly. I had to beg DBO repeatedly for the filthy common areas to be cleaned. Grime and bits of garbage remained in the vestibule after the "cleaning". The garbage disposal area went way downhill in cleanliness too. I hope DBO rises to the challenge of maintaining the integrity and character of the beautiful 1800s building I lived in. I enjoyed 7 foot high windows, 12 foot ceilings, brownstone type stairs and a chandelier. Many OOT landlords come to Albany and reap stunning profits from Albany residents but give nothing back to Albany tenants or the community. Please be respectful and fair and help protect the dignity and historical beauty of our homes, our dollars and our lives! We are counting on you! Thank you.

Disclosure: this review is from 2013…read more.. For starters - I chose not to rent with this property management company. I am leaving a review based on my experience with them while looking for a rental when I relocated from out of state. Property management companies are not a thing where I'm from. You pick an apartment and they are often pretty nice with amenities that may include gyms, w/d in unit, central air/heat, a pool, perhaps even a basketball or tennis court. Units are also reasonably priced and well-maintained. Of course, you can always rent from a landlord, but it was a bit rare to deal with an actual "management" company. So. This experience was new. Before physically locating to Albany, I looked at a variety of places online including rentals from EPM (yes you, not ERE). I thought - 'meh, they look ok'. Let me tell you all something. Albany is pretty good about a lot of things, but one of the biggest problems is that they DO NOT keep landlords and these purported "management" companies in check. Never have I seen anything like the rentals that I saw (including those from EPM) at the price points they were at. It's truly absurd. Anyway, I saw photos of the properties I was interested in before moving to Albany. I was a little skeptical, but I stopped by their office anyway. 1st sign of trouble - they kept their office locked during regular business hours and required appointments. I was spending the summer in a nearby state and decided to go house hunting in Albany for a week. I explained that to them and I was let in. The woman I interacted with seemed fairly uneasy - my initial thought was 'why - what is, so bad about your tenants that you need to keep your doors locked'. I got over it. 2nd issue - the "apartments" were basically holes in the wall of multifamily buildings that shouldn't be anything more than duplexes. The paint was caked on all the walls and trim. It just looked bad all the way around. So when I noticed (3rd problem) the x 2 month rent security deposit - I was like "wtf?" It dawned on me that they likely going to nickel and dime people for everything they can get and that they probably target folks that do not have the means to take them to court. So. That was a no go for me. I left this review because I just read a few of the responses left by EPM to some of these reviews (even those that aren't recommended). Your decision to respond with personal information about former tenants is malicious and unprofessional. It's a similar to the feeling that I had from interacting with you for a few days. I am now certain that I will not do business with you (as an owner or tenant) and will make sure to deter anyone that asks me about your company. It's beyond clear that you're in it for a paycheck.

Calling the office just put me on an endless phone tree loop, with no option to speak to anybody.

If this is how they treat prospective tenants, I can only imagine how little they'd care once I'd signed a lease...

Taylor, at Red Door, was exceptional.

He also put in a lot of time on our application, and made the process smooth, and painless. Our impression of him is that he is patient, kind, and very professional. If our re-location becomes permanent, he is definitely our first call when it is time to buy a house.

The co-owner tasked with "managing" our property is arrogant and dismissive.

As they are paid a flat yearly rate, their business model is designed to tell association members "no". The more "no's", the less work and the same flat rate. Unfortunately, DRM has a monopoly in the Albany area, which minimizes the likelihood of recourse.
