He pays attention to your apartment wants/needs and provides you with more than enough options. I appreciate his honesty regarding safe areas around Houston, as this was quite important to me.

I have happily referred others to Ty for apartment locator services and I will continue to do so!

Great experience with Smart City from start to finish!…read more We reached out to three moving companies in Houston, and after speaking with Jakob Patino and seeing how professional and easy the whole process was, we knew Smart City was the right choice.

Highly recommend Smart City -- and if you're lucky enough to work with Jakob, you're in good hands!

Our leasing experience with this management company was frustrating due to poor communication and…read morelack of follow-through. The process took about a full month. During that time we were told three separate times that the property had been cleaned and was move-in ready. Each walkthrough showed otherwise -- no professional cleaning had been completed. We later learned there had been a water leak, which may have caused delays, but this was not clearly communicated upfront. When we first viewed the home, there were spider webs throughout and both dead and live roaches present. We raised these concerns and were repeatedly assured everything would be addressed before move-in. By the final walkthrough, the condition still had not been resolved, and an additional issue had come up. During that final walkthrough (yesterday), we were told that if we did not immediately pay the deposit, the owner wanted to move on to the "next applicants," even though the property issues had not been fixed. We were also told the owner had already "bent" by approving us, so it was essentially now or never. Once we confirmed we would not move forward under those conditions, we were then offered money off and the option to inspect the property after completion. At that point, it felt less like a proactive solution and more like pressure followed by a last-minute change in approach. There were also inconsistencies during the application process. When I initially called to ask about our application status, I was told there were other applicants ahead of us and we would be processed if they fell through. After I provided the address, the associate confirmed we were actually the only applicant. That kind of misinformation made the process feel disorganized. I understand that maintenance issues can happen and that properties owned by LLCs can sometimes add extra layers to communication. However, clear, accurate updates and accountability are essential when people are planning a move on a tight timeline. I hope this feedback helps improve the experience for future tenants considering this property in Richmond, TX.

We've been considering renting in Katy and this is one of the offices we're considering, after talking to them and others. This section of a very popular Katy based shopping plaza has had plenty of popular trendy restaurants and less popular restaurants and other businesses which seem to come and go, which is strange because the rents are not bad and there are plenty of other good businesses here and lots of traffic. It's a good plaza with a lot of great businesses past and present that we've explored.

We are looking for a lake home and drove from Houston to Lake Livingston. Our agent was not…read moreavailable so she sent a colleague. One of our stops was a listing by in this office by the and agent named Robert Cory. The agent was unable to open the keybox and reached out to him. His advise to her was to "hit it with a brick". She tried to do this to no avail. In the meantime, my husband and I were walking the property and when we came back, my husband tried to help her hit the lockbox with a rock. The agent again called Mr. Cory who said it worked for him in the past. When I heard that, I basically grabbed the phone out of OUR agent's hand and asked how he was going to remedy the situation. He said "mam, I'm all the way down in Katy, what do you want me to do?" I asked him why he wouldn't have replaced the lockbox when he found out it was broken in the first place and he said it wasn't broken. Well....then why did he say that it worked when he hit it with a brick and then tell our agent to also do this? I cannot for the life of me understand how someone would jeopardize their OWN livelihood with such shoddy practices, let alone that of other agents. This situation should not have happened. It was pure laziness on his part. If he was THERE and that happened, it should have been addressed immediately. If I was the owner and my agent was this negligent, he'd be toast. Imagine trying to sell your house and people can't even get in to see it! I do NOT recommend this man to sell your home.

We were told numerous times that as long as we made 3x the rent and had great rental history, the credit wouldnt matter. That was a lie. We received an IMMEDIATE disqualification after sending them $200 for 2 people. We asked why the automatic denial and they just said that we had credit issues. They acted like we blindsided them. We even asked about getting a co-signer to help alleviate the risk. They said "it's a hard no". Wtf is that? We're not delusional...we know the credit problems make us a risk. But to just steal money like that is really terrible business. What do these landlords think we're doing? CHOOSING to rent? If our credit was good...we would just buy the house. We're renting because we're working on our credit. You guys have lost your minds.

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
