Tyler Yates has been an absolute pleasure to work with. He has been helping manage my four different rental properties and is also currently selling another house. He has excellent insight and is always prompt on returning messages and phone calls. Anything I have been unsure about or had questions on was easily explained with ease and has made things seamless to move forward quickly when time has been a factor. It's been a huge stress relief knowing he is handling everything with awesome integrity and a great work ethic. I can't say enough how awesome Tyler is to work with and Real Estate by Design. If you're living in the Las Vegas region and need help in the housing rental, real estate market then no need to look anywhere further. read more

Tyler at Real Estate by Design has managed my property for about 2 years now and I could not be happier with his service. I had a previous property manager from a different company with at least twice the number of years of experience, but with that came laziness and an outdated accounting system (paper checks, mailed). Once Tyler took over I discovered how helpful a great property manager can be (and how nice direct deposit is). Tyler is outstanding; I give him a universe of stars. read more

Real Estate by design has been our property manager for the past 15 years, sometimes on two properties. They have always been very professional, being responsive to our needs and managing the properties well. When it came time to sell, it was a pleasure to work with them. They kept us informed, and answered all our questions. I would recommend Real Estate by Design anytime. read more

Have worked with Tyler and his team on multiple properties for many years. They have been FANTASTIC. Always super responsive, knowledgeable and professional through every step of the process from finding the correct tenants, rent collection, tenant move out and everything in between. I would never dream of renting my property without Tyler and his team having my back. If I could give them 6 stars I would. Thank you so much for all your work on my behalf read more

It has been several years since we used this company, and it is still the worst property management experience we have ever had. Over the last 15 years, my family have been renters and landlords, so we have used several property managements companies throughout the western United States, and we will never patronize this company again. From 2009-2010, my family was temporarily relocated to Las Vegas. It was during this time that we rented a condo in Summerlin with Tony as our property manager. At first, things were fine. But then, about 6 months in, our water heater burst and flooded the garage. When we called to report it, we were intially blamed for the damage. When it became clear that sediment buildup was to blame, the issue was dropped, but we were still surprised that they had tried to blame us for it in the first place. Then, in the summer of 2010, our AC went out. We knew that it was likely the thermostat - which is an easy fix - but we were told to wait for a technician. 2 days later, in the hot Las Vegas heat, we still had not seen a technician. At this point, we called the owner and she gave us permission to go to Lowes and replace the theromostat ourselves. It took 5 minutes and it fixed the problem. When the technician finally arrived several days later, he took our thermostat off and replaced it with his own and declared that the problem was fixed. The next issue we had came a few months later, when our unit was being forclosed on. Tony tried to get us to come in and sign a new year long lease, which he would back date to make it look like we signed it before the property went into forclosure. This would block the forclosure, but it felt a little too much like fraud for me to feel comfortable. We told Tony we would be moving out at the end of our lease, which should have been in December. We later found out that the December ending date had been crossed out on the lease and a new date in January had been written in. Because of this, we lost our deposit. The final issue happened a few days after we moved out. Tony called me and asked if we had kept any keys to the propery. I reminded him that we had placed all keys and garage remotes on the counter as we were instructed and he said that he could not find his key to the unit and wondered if he had accidentally given it to us. He then said that he would need to hire a locksmith, since he could not get into the unit to do his final walk through. Later, we were sent a bill for the locksmith and for them to re-key the unit. I hired a lawyer to send them a letter informing them that we would not be paying for Tony losing his key, and we heard nothing more about the matter. Now, I am looking at properties in the Las Vegas area as potential investments, and I came across an ad for this company. Now that I see how many other innocent people they scammed, I am wishing I would have ignored my lawyer's advice and sued them. Do not use this company. read more

I hadn't even worked with this company before the Leasing agent was rude to me. I definitely would stray away from a company that responds to a concern with this type of response rather than with a solution. Very Disappointing read more

Tyler is a true professional at what he does and truly takes care of his clients. He very tentative and answers back as quickly as possible. Even though I haven't know him professionally for a long time I feel like I have been using him for ever, he jumped right in and helps me with whatever I need for my property. Great all around!!! Thank you read more

We had the pleasure of working with Real Estate by Design when we decided to move from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. Jackie, who runs the company, is attentive, caring and always willing to go the extra mile. Not only did she help us find the perfect home, but she made sure that we were extremely satisfied during our stay. Things like maintenance requests were always handled in a prompt and professional manner. They also have a great portal for paying rent, requesting maintenance, etc. All in all, I am giving five stars, and I absolutely recommend Real Estate by Design. read more

Real Estate By Design will rip you off. They stole my deposit after telling me I'd get it back if I left the house spotless, which I did. Tony Taranto is very shady. I should have sued this horrible company. Read the review from Nichole V....she is 100 percent correct. DO NOT DO BUSINESS here. Especially if you're looking to rent a home. NEVER AGAIN. Run away from this place. read more

So far, so good! The property I'm renting has been transferred between property management companies twice and it's now being managed by Real Estate by Design. Heather has been very on top of things, getting back to us quickly when we email or call her with questions. My favorite part: rent is payable online AND tenants can make maintenance requests online as well. No more driving all over to drop rent off or having to call for maintenance issues. Yay! read more

Heather came and took pictures of my condo and got a nice looking ad together. She was sick and that caused some delays but worked hard to get my condo rented and kept up good communication with me. Also, she seems very knowledgeable about handing everything in way that complies with the law and protects me and gives me the best chance to get my place rented. They have been collecting rent and dealing with tenant issues promptly so thumbs up. read more

I've worked with Jackie Akester on two seperate occasions with rental properties and she has been nothing short of amazing. The houses that I rented have always been immaculate and if I ever need anything fixed she handles it quickly. I would recommend working with her if you are in the market to buy or rent a property in the Las Vegas area read more

We were fortunate to find Real Estate by Design three years ago when looking for a home rental. Jackie and her team were extremely knowledgeable about the market and made us feel like we were their only clients. When we found the house we wanted Jackie and her team made it happen. We were in the home for over two years and each time we needed something fixed Real Estate by Design team was on it immediately. You can not only pay your rent on-line but can get maintinance taken care of on-line. read more

I've been working with Jackie since last year she is such an amazing person. Always polite and there when I needed her got me into a beautiful Condo with lovely owners if anything went wrong I could always reach Jackie by text right away. You can just tell she cares about her job and the people she's working with I definitely Recommend her read more

Hands down the best rental experience I've had. Any questions I had they were prompt to answer. Any maintenance request they immediately checked it out and were great to work with. They were very accommodating to the fact I had two dogs and that one is scared of people and we're very respectful of privacy as well. I can not recommend them enough, thank you guys so much! read more

warning- please do not use this company ( i only wish i would have read the reviews before i did! there are so many many more more issues i could list but the real reason i'm posting this is in hopes that it actually saves someone else all of the frustration, stress, lies and disappointment that we encountered dealing with such an unprofessional heartless individual that jackie is!! jackie is by far one of the worst individuals i have ever had to do business with- absolutely no work ethic whatsoever! ) like several others postings i read, you will be treated horribly, lied to, and have none of your rental issues addressed. along with never getting your deposits returned to you. jackie let us go without a refrigerator for a month during the summer telling us to keep all our food in a icechest while the one that came with the house was being fixed. we had to go with out the dishwasher for 2 weeks when it broke. raised our rent from 1900 to 3000 with only a 30 day notice. every amenity listed on the house - didn't work complete house listing was a total lie and she knew it (which is the worst part). read more

Working with Jackie to secure my apartment long distance was a great experience, she went above and beyond to help and make the process as easy as possible. You can just tell she cares about her job and the people she's working with I definitely Recommend her read more

Keep in mind when you hand over your deposit check that you will not be getting it back. Left the unit spotless, without a doubt cleaner than I found it and was charged a "cleaning fee" and "tile and grout fee" absolutely absurd. Not to mention the "key and lock fee" even though the locks weren't changed when I moved in. I thought by using a property management co I wouldn't have to deal with the bs you encounter when renting from apartment communities but in this circumstance I was wrong. Very disappointed. read more

My family and I visit Vegas frequently (a couples times a month) and we are looking to purchase a family vacation home and a condo for myself. Jackie has been amazing! We wanted to get a better idea of what the Vegas market was like and how much bang we can get for our buck. Coming from Hawaii, we are used to everything being so expensive that we wanted to buy the first house we saw because everything here is so cheap! But Jackie has been so helpful with the whole buying process. She showed us a bunch of places just to familiarize ourselves with the different communities and to see what we like and we don't. She has been patiently working with us and has gone above and beyond. They also manage properties and I actually know people that rent from them and I have heard only great reviews. If you're buying, selling, or looking to invest, these people will help you get the job done! read more

Not very helpful property management company. I would not recommend real estate by Design to friends.

I will never rent from this place again and I'm encouraging all of my family and friends to never step foot in the building! They take weeks for simple repairs. then they tell me they're coming and never came. i missed 2 full days of work for a simple repair because their handy man is so unreliable. they charge fees that were not mentioned during the signing of the lease and make you pay before you can cut your ties from these people. i would advise anyone to stay away from this place! there are plenty of other companies! read more

I would give zero stars. Do not expect your deposit back. I called and gave 30 days notice and asked if she needed anything in writing. She acted like we were besties and said to consider my phone call the notice. She also acted all excited for me that I was purchasing a home. When I called back 30 days later asking for the walk through she acted as if we had never had the conversations one month prior. She stated she had no memory of congratulating me on my home purchase or me giving notice. Don't trust them. They are crooks. They are very manipulative and I should have sued them. The home was spotless when i moved out. Much cleaner than when I moved in. When I first moved in they had to clean the carpet again because I found pet urine stains in one of the upstairs bedrooms. If you're already living in one of their properties take pictures and put EVERYTHING in writing. If your thinking about renting from them RUN the other direction. There are many fair, aboveboard, places who will not rip you off. read more
