Most runners take advantage of running on the sidewalks. Sunday mornings are the best for low traffic runs. There are also two pools and tennis courts available for Longwood residents. My friends like to play golf on the Longwood course. Overall, the residents here are friendly and very family oriented.

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.

ZERO STARS IF I COULD!…read more Mark Kallus is absolutely horrible. I was trapped outside of my house because of a dropped pin in the door lock and couldn't log into my portal because my login info was all on my laptop inside. So I sent an email to get in contact with someone who manages the property and he made sure to let me know I needed to submit a request asap if I needed any help and if there was no issue that I would be paying the bill instead of trying to give me any other advice on what to do or who to even call at that moment. This man is rude & doesn't care at all about the tenants.

PREDATORY!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT RENT FROM THESE PEOPLE!!!!!!!…read more This property management company will add fees and fines for just about anything.Whither it is valid or not. No discussion or conversation about it. You just have to pay and pay and pay and they add new things every month. They will not ever help you when you have a problem. Mark is so rude and has a bad attitude. No understanding for the people who pay him every month. you are responsible for every single maintenance bill that any other management company would normally cover like when ac or plumbing breaks or gets stopped up because they have a cheap faulty system. You should be able to flush toilet paper normally without it stopping up every time. That is a faulty system and Mark will not acknowledge it. They will blame it on you and make you pay for their expensive plumbers who are partners. They sneak things in the lease like how they will force you to pay $50 a month for air filters that actually cost $5. You don't have a choice they just add it to your rent and you can't opt out of paying this extra. Then they always add this extra $70 fee just because Mark had to talk on the phone to somebody. They add a $65 fee because they had to mail you something. They add a $100 fee because paying rent online. They add a $35 fee to let you know you got a HOA violation. Don't even get me started on this bs HOA. They sneaked things in the lease that they never explained and then make you pay for them. Thousands of dollars gone paying for maintenance on a house I don't own. Things that Should be the owners cost. I signed a lease that said one price then they added more onto the price with all these irrelevant fees. Makes my rent bill at least $100 higher every month than what was advertised!. And don't DARE move out or you have to pay $3000 extra in cleaning fees from their partner company even after it was all deepcleaned and painted. Because it wasn't done by their partner.doesn't matter if it was done by another professional company. Anybody else would have said it was left move-in ready. They will do everything not to give your deposit back and charge you more after you leave. They will damage the home after you leave and charge you crazy fines for it. I will be going to small claims court with my proof. PAY ATTENTION TO THE OTHER BAD REVIEWS THESE PEOPLE ARE SO RUDE AND CHARGE YOU FOR UNNECESSARY THINGS. PREDATORY!!!!!!!!!!

To our community it's all about focusing on the goals of reducing overall Operating and Maintenance…read morecosts; i.e. Homeowner Assessments. With Spectrum's assistance the HOA Board have reduced our annual budget and eliminated the need for an increase in homeowner assessment while simultaneously rebuilding a depleted reserve. The result has been accomplished by a willingness to work through the challenges of assessment collection, violation reporting / resolution and efficiently working toward a solution by communicating with HOA Members. The most important factor in this success is Jessica, our active community manager who works with our HOA members, participates in community activities and strives to strengthen communication in our neighborhood. Having served on HOA boards for more than 20 years, I submit Spectrums processes and procedures are second to none and I recommend their services to anyone looking for community management services.

If anyone has any questions, I would be delighted to answer. I have been very happy working with them and they really care to do good work to represent my family and the tenants. They absolutely do background checks and I even approve all tenants. In one case, one tenant was accused of being a drug dealer. That is false. The tenant has a son that was not on the lease and the son was suspected of that and after going through proper procedure they were evicted. They have teams to help with repair work and maintenance service at competitive prices. We are not slumlords. I am very offended by anyone that would call me that. I spend a lot of money monthly to do repairs on my units but unfortunately the HOA dues in this particular complex are crazy high and keep going up and there were months that I was taking a loss. Kathy and Rich did the best they could to help everyone involved even though it was an impossible situation. Fortunately, the HOA board realized the dues were too high and reduced them back to the previous rate. I highly recommend Kathy and Richard from A through Z for all your real estate needs. They handle even the most difficult properties in the most professional way possible. I feel very fortunate to have them as a part of my team.
