As a licensed real estate agent, this was one of the most disappointing and unethical experiences I've had working with another real estate company. I had an exclusive tenant brokerage agreement with my client and reached out to Promove to help locate available apartment options. I initially spoke with Oleg Konstantinovsky, who told me he would provide a list of available properties and schedule the tours. He repeatedly assured me that I was protected as the client's agent, that I did not need to attend the tours in person, and that Promove had employees who conducted the showings. Most importantly, he repeatedly assured me that I would be paid. At no point did Oleg clearly explain how Promove's process actually worked. He never disclosed that: Promove would be paid directly by the apartment community. I needed a referral agreement with Promove. My compensation depended on additional requirements that had never been communicated to me. According to Promove, I needed to personally show the property in order to receive compensation. After my client paid the deposit, Oleg actually called me asking why Promove--instead of me--was listed to receive the referral payment. That immediately raised concerns. I then contacted the apartment leasing office directly and was told that because Promove had contacted them first regarding my client, the referral payment would go to Promove--not to me as my client's agent. When I confronted Oleg, he claimed the reason was that he had a listing agreement with the apartment community. I verified this directly with the leasing office, and they told me that was not true. I also spoke with Promove manager David Haynes to understand why none of this had been explained upfront. Rather than answering my questions, he cowardly kept repeatedly responding with, "That's been our policy for 30 years." He never addressed why the process had not been disclosed before my client moved forward. In the end, Promove collected approximately $2,000 after doing little more than emailing to schedule a tour, while I--the agent representing the client under an exclusive agreement--was completely cut out of the compensation because of information that was never disclosed from the beginning. Even my client described the situation as unethical and was extremely unhappy with how everything was handled. My issue is not that companies have policies. My issue is with the complete lack of transparency. If Promove had honestly explained the process from the beginning, I could have made an informed decision and protected both my client and my business. Instead, I was repeatedly reassured that everything was fine, only to discover after the lease was signed that I had effectively been replaced in the transaction. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Promove to other real estate agents. I would strongly encourage any agent considering working with them to avoid working with Promove at all costs. If you do reach out to Promove simply to get a list of available apartments, DO NOT allow Promove to schedule any appointments on your behalf. You call the apartment complex yourself, register your name as the agent, schedule a tour, and show up with your client to the tour. Not sure how either one of these guys sleeps at night knowing they're literally living in a web of lying, manipulating, and stealing from people.

I'd looked at TONS of places; mostly on FB Marketplace, Craigslist, Trulia & Zillow. Found a…read morecompany named, "ProMove" who takes your budget & criteria & then sends you prospects. The complex who you sign a lease with pays PROMOV. This saves TONS of time & money. My contact at PROMOVE was "Markisha Foster." I shared that I don't want to live near anyone smoking weed, shouting and fighting, a place with garbage & empty bottles strewn around, loud music, anyone selling drugs, breaking into cars and racing through in their cars like others and children don't live there. She asked what neighborhoods I found interesting? I said; Roswell, Marietta, Smyrna, Vinings and possibly Buckhead. She said give her a few hours and she'd get back to me. The very first place she recommended was a place in Smyrna named, "Park At Vinings". She said, "Judging by what you requested? Your gonna love this place." I liked what I saw online, asked her to set me up an appointment and take it from there. I don't like to jump into anything regardless of how I "feel" about it. I have to make an educated decision based on many factors. With that said.... When you first arrive there's a long roadway from the main road that you have to drive down so you really can't see much of the place from the road. It's a MASSIVE complex yet still...tucked away. I phoned the office and was greeted by a wonderful lady named, "Trina Slade". She instructed me on how to get to the leasing office. When I first entered, Trina greeted me with a big smile and a "Welcome!" Trina asked how I discovered them, what I was looking for and if I had any special requirements. I told her and she listened intently taking it all in. She showed me an illustration of everything available, asked which I would like to see, requested my I.D. and we were off! We hopped into one of those little golf carts and she delighted on how much she loved working there and how this place was like no other she'd worked. A few residents greeted her with a smile and light convo (ALWAYS a good sign with property Mgmt.) I took in all the little children playing, riding their bikes, people walking their little dogs, couples striding hand in hand, joggers and families just...living. I felt an exceptionally strong sense of family and shared values here. Nooo funny business. The pool was one of the most lovely I've seen in Atlanta, it's a winding resort style pool with plenty of seating. There seemed to be ample parking and lots of trees. I requested an upper unit because big roaches are usually found scurrying around most ground "garden units" in woodsy areas in The South & I'm not a fan. A 2nd floor unit wasn't available to be seen at that time so Trina showed me a garden unit that would have an almost identical layout to an upper unit soon to be available. From the moment I walked in, I liked it. 1333 sqft. Spacious, clean, with a much different layout to any others I'd seen. Big bedrooms, nice living room, lots of cabinets & closet space and even a large day room with skylights! I was in love with it. Just my kind of place. Markisha was spot on with this recommendation. I would DEFINITELY recommend Ms. Trina Slade and PAV to anyone in the market for a new apartment. She's patient, polite and won't stop until your satisfied and the place is beautiful. Thanks again for all your hard work Trina. I will DEFINITELY recommend you to any and all who need a place. I'm a happy camper!

Her expertise didn't stop at finding the house, either--she connected us with fantastic local vendors, including a great mortgage broker, cleaners, electricians, and engineers for a retaining wall project. Her guidance on crafting a competitive offer got us the home we loved, and the entire paperwork and closing process was seamless and efficient.

Our Atlantic Station condominium HOA employed FirstService Residential from 2013 through 2024. Our…read moreproperty has around 350 units. From my recollection and perspective as a homeowner (not a board member), I thought FirstService was fine and not significantly different from other property management companies that I've had experiences with as an owner of different Midtown Atlanta condos over the last 24 years. Those other companies include Bauman & Company, Community Management Associates, Sentry Management, and Beacon Management Services. Only one of those companies stood out as exceptional to me and that was Bauman & Company. Unfortunately, they left the residential property management business long ago. The rest, FirstService included, have all been good and bad in different ways. I've come to learn that: (1) most property management companies could use a lot of improvement and (2) property managers can really vary in terms of attitude, responsiveness, and getting work done. I also recognize that being a property manager isn't easy. Some managers are better than others at addressing homeowner and community needs (e.g., maintenance items, safety concerns). In this regard, I want to give a shoutout to our former FirstService on-site property manager, Eva Woods, and maintenance engineer, Dishalon Johnson. Both Eva and "Dee" were always kind and responsive to me, and resolved all of my concerns to the best of their abilities. Thank you, Eva. You are missed. Dee still helps me out, independently, on miscellaneous home projects. He's the man.

WARNING! First Residential is pathetic!…read more As a condo owner in the Inman Park neighborhood of Atlanta, GA, I wrote to express serious concern about the ongoing elevator outage at Inman Park Village (IPV) Condos which remained in effect for weeks until I filed a complaint. In my opinion, First Residential does not care about their customers and provides inadequate and mean-spirit support services for building residents. Recently, the building's only elevator was out of service for several weeks, creating a potentially dangerous and unacceptable situation for elderly residents, pets, individuals with disabilities, and anyone unable to safely use the stairs. Additionally, the conduct and performance of Resident Manager Dev Simon is awful. Numerous residents reported unprofessional, dismissive, and hostile interactions. Her handling of the elevator matter and other situations was inadequate, and no emergency or fire‑safety protocols for the building have been implemented by her as of June 18, 2026. There is no resident list or plan in place to assist first responders in an evacuation; in my opinion, this is both unsafe and unacceptable. In addition, I saw the elevator situation as a potential violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act as amended (ADA/ADAAA). The elevator has been fixed as of 6-21-2026, but the past and ongoing customer service provided by First Residential is still beyond horrible. I would recommend that any condo community stay far away from using First Residential.

On April 9, 2025, a water leak originating from the bathroom of the unit above mine -- managed by…read morethis property management company -- caused my ceiling to collapse. This has resulted in significant property damage that remains unresolved to this date. I contacted Nicholas at this company immediately following the incident. While the company did acknowledge responsibility for the damage caused by the unit they manage, they have since failed to follow through with any action. No repairs have been arranged, and I have not been offered any compensation for my damages despite their acknowledgment. This is the second time this same unit has caused damage affecting my property. A reputable property management company has a responsibility to ensure that the owners they represent maintain their units to an acceptable standard -- particularly when neglect directly harms neighboring residents. This company has acknowledged fault yet still failed to make it right. I am requesting that this company take immediate action to: 1. Follow through on their acknowledgment of responsibility and arrange for full repair of my ceiling and any related property damage. 2. Compensate me for all losses incurred as a result of this incident. 3. Take corrective measures to ensure this unit does not continue to cause damage to neighboring owners. This company's repeated failure to hold their clients to a basic standard of care -- and their inaction even after accepting responsibility -- is a serious concern that reflects poorly on their business practices. I am seeking the BBB's assistance in reaching a fair and timely resolution.

I have lived in Habersham properties for the past 4 years, and I must say that overall it has been…read morea great experience. Before considering one of their properties, however, there are some things that potential residents should take into consideration. First, the true beauty of Habersham Properties is their location and price. For example, I rented a one-bedroom apartment off of 14th Street -- less than a block from the entrance to Piedmont Park -- for $600/month. This tiny little apartment was within walking distance of Joe's on Juniper, The Nook, Nickiemoto's, the Botanical Gardens, and pretty much anywhere else that you want to go in midtown. That being said, these are truly no-frills properties. They are typically older apartment buildings that have been moderately renovated, in fact some don't include central heating and air (which is pretty essential to some people for Georgia summers). As far as customer service, this all depends on who you deal with. Lee Pye and Ann Story pretty much rock. While leaving a general voicemail is probably not going to get you anywhere and the office is seriously closed on the weekends, having Lee or Ann's email's or direct lines will get a quick response. Plus, they are totally helpful. For example, I left my itsy bitsy apartment on 14th Street. The new place flooded and the landlord was a total b*tch about the situation (LANDLORD: How could this flooding have happened? ME: I have no idea. LANDLORD: Have you been flushing tampons down the toilet? ME: No. LANDLORD: Well, if you have you need to tell me because we are investigating the contents of the pump, and if we find a tampon, there's a problem. She never apologized, but did inform me that I was "lucky" no feminine products were discovered.) Anyway, I called Ann and she worked her butt off to find me something quick and in my price range. She even met me on her day off. As for repair requests, if something major breaks, they will come immediately. For example, I had a hot water heater problem when I moved into my new apartment near Ardmore Park. I was freaking out, called the Repair hotline and even drove to the office. Before I could get to the office (which was like 3 miles away), repair guy was already at my place. Problem solved. Now, some slats fell off of my closet door, well, that's still waiting to be fixed. So, if you made it this far in my long-winded review, here's the moral of the story: if location and price are at the top of your list, you won't find a better deal than Habersham. If amenities and mgmt attention are at the top of your list, you might want to look at some other places as well.

They take your money you can NEVER get a hold of anyone with authority. Every time you call you must speak to a call rep that barley speaks English. When it comes to repairs on the home, they send out 3rd party contractors to put bandages on major issues. Every single 3rd party contractor that came to the house stated that the leasing company "Invitation Homes," are cheap and my repairs are just that. The front bathroom is filled with mold. They take your money and the repairs are subpar at best. I have chosen to leave the home due to improper treatment as well as the decline of the home. They will just go in and paint and make it look pretty, only to scam another family to move into a home that has mold and foundation issues. They knew that the home has foundation issues and neglected the home as you can see where the walls are breaking apart with the mesh behind the paint. Again just proof of the subpar repairs. I would give this company no stars if I could as I feel like they are just a money hungry company and don't truly care about the tennants and the conditions they provide to live in. My story is just one of thousands of similar experiences: add-on fees, bogus charges levied against security deposits, poor living conditions, and no real recourse for renters. Even after losing a recent FTC class action lawsuit, this company continues its fraudulent practices, relying on renters being too busy or powerless to challenge them. Don't be fooled by their social media response- they'll "look into it" to save face on social media and then do nothing about it.
