I've had a great experience renting through Simmons Real Estate. Their property management team has…read morealways been professional, responsive, and easy to work with. Any maintenance requests were handled quickly, and communication was always clear throughout my tenancy. They genuinely care about their tenants and make the renting process as smooth and stress-free as possible. I highly recommend Simmons Real Estate to anyone looking for a well-managed rental property.

We used Simmonds for 11 years. They were very responsive during that time and kept us aware of any…read morework orders on the home. However, during that time, they went in to check on our home once or we were never notified of any other inspections or given any record. Apparently, we needed to request in writing that they actually visit the property, it wasn't included monthly property management fee (despite us asking multiple times. No one ever verbalized we needed to formally request and pay an additional fee for the inspection). Upon move out, the tenants had removed half the sod in the backyard, the home was filthy, they had made many permanent changes and damage to the home as well as removing the fixtures in the home. However, Simmonds lost the move-in photos and the tenants "had never turned in" their move in survey. We received the move-out video. As a result, we were left to "value" all damage to the home from memory with no guidance, move-in pictures or videos. We were also left to contact and schedule all contractors to fix the damage on the home. We weren't provided with the damage deposit amount, only told "it's probably the amount of the rent at move-in." As a result, we went off of memory and sent a itemized list (which it turns out was less than the deposit, which we weren't notified of until Simmonds notified they were sending the tenants a check for the remainder). Simmonds did provide us with a few contractors' information but unfortunately did not coordinate anything with the contractors to fix the damage. Moving from overseas to the mess we had hoped to avoid by having a property manager was very disappointing and frustrating. By the end of it, we were out thousands of dollars and just wanted to wash our hands of the situation. We did verbalize our frustrations multiple times via telephone to multiple employees. Apparently we need to be more vocal or irrate in our frustration, because it seems they did not heed our frustration, so I can only recommend that future homeowners communicate in writing and document all dealings to refer back, particularly with move-in/move-out, damages or requests for inspection.

I bought a completed home by David Weekley and closed on June 30, 2017. There were about 10 things…read morethat I wanted to be completed with the home prior to closing. I was told by the sales rep and the builder on the day of closing that if I changed my closing date, I would be charged a fee. I did not need to worry because everything was going to be completed and "they were not that kind of builder" to leave me after closing and they had a "reputation" to maintain. I was promised everything; my yard was going to get mowed, the house was going to be re-landscaped, the outside of the house was going to be repainted, the inside would be repainted, and then the inside repainted again after I moved in (if there were scratches from the movers), and all of the things that needed to be completed would be done in a timely manner. After numerous text messages, phone calls, and emails; everything was completed on August 29, 2017. I had a lot of difficulties with the builder and in text messages he told me that I was "bugging him and the sales rep" and that's why they couldn't get stuff done. I was out of work and on leave from July 4 through July 20 and the work on the house could have been completed at any of those dates/times. Afterwards I had to have somebody come to the house about 14 times to meet with the contractors and warranty to let them in the house. I didn't have any leave from work so luckily somebody was able to come out or I would have sued for lost wages. Eventually everything was transferred to warranty since the builder couldn't help me and I asked about the timeframe for when everything that was promised at closing was going to be completed and I was told "With all my respect, we will address all issues but Warranty doesn't make promises and gives dates. We work with the availability of the trades we use and the homeowners availability and try to maximize on the work to be done when that happens." After that I got the regional manager involved and within 2 to 3 weeks everything had been completed. Meanwhile, I kept getting text messages from the builder asking for a survey to be completed so that he could get his bonus. I told him that I would not do the survey until after everything was completed that way my results on the survey would be very accurate as to completion dates and times. I think my overall experience could have been more smooth if the builder had some integrity. If he had been honest and forthcoming at the beginning and told me that it was going to take months for the stuff to be completed, then things would've gone over better and I wouldn't be so upset. I feel like David Weekley wanted to sell a house and afterwords could care less about customer satisfaction. I currently know of three people that were looking for houses around the time that I was and because of what I went through they will never buy a home from David Weekley. I love my home and am currently happy with it but the whole buying experience aftermath was horrible. Here is the list of what needed to be completed: *Window kitchen beading fixed *Window sill fixed (little bricks not secure) *Missing 3 fan knobs *Lawn needs to be mowed *Touch up paint kit *Missing cover over water hole in front yard *My neighbor can open my garage door with his remote *Outside house painted *Inside of house painted *Hose spickets attached to house x2 *AC does not feel cold; 10 degrees off.... *Plug on floor in living room does not work

The home was built in Canyon Lake in 2021, and the three tab shingle roof has repeatedly lost shingles during normal wind events. The roof has already been repaired twice, yet the same issue continues happening. At this point, I am likely facing a roof replacement on a home that is only a few years old. A properly installed roof should not be failing this early or requiring repeated repairs under normal conditions. I brought these concerns to the builder, but the situation has still not been resolved. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I cannot recommend Modern Lakes Builders.
