After renting in Valdosta for a couple years as well as in some other states, I have had the…read moreabsolute best experience with Mike Hill Realty. Ginsie always went above and way beyond from start to finish and always put her tenants needs as a priority. We had very little property issues but if anything arose they were FAST to remedy any situation. This company has earned my highest respect and recommendation to any property owners or prospective tenants looking to rent. The only reason we didnt renew was due to out of state relocation but will most definitely utilize Mike Hill should we return to the area. Danielle Fenn-Dassaro

Speaking only from the perspective of the landlord, we had problems from day one. It got so bad we…read moreonly lasted 10 months, before pulling the plug. I purchased a "rental ready" supposed turn key rental property sight unseen(I understand the lack of due diligence was my fault). The house had structural issues, tiles were popping up all over the kitchen floor, holes in the drywall covered by duct tape and then painted, no door on the breaker box, cigarette butts on the laundry area floor, front door didn't close or lock properly, the condensate drain line was improperly installed and was not strapped under house, a toilet that sat on a crack concrete bathroom floor with a gap under it I could put my hand in, wall sockets that crumbled as try to remove them to change out. I could go on, and on, and on...... I've been in several houses they managed and maintained and the work was shameful. There's a name for people that rent out houses in that kind of condition. I thought they would at least put effort in to processing my rent payments in a timely manner. I thought wrong. It usually took 3-4 weeks after the tenant had paid before we received our portion of the funds, and that was usually after having to chase it up multiple times. You'd be hard pressed to find a tween with more excuses. The final month of business we learned that they were sitting on 2 months of rent from the tenant, and we still had not received ours. That was after being told 4 times that the money had been sent electronically. It's not like they had to double entry book keep in a ledger and mail a check! I never figured out if they just liked to sit on other peoples money, their couldn't handle simple administration, or the didn't have the money in the bank to send me mine and had to wait for other peoples rent to come in first If you are a landlord don't waste your time.

I'm not sure what value there is in a place that doesn't seem to put tenants first. Mass "blanket" emails don't count as helping or caring for the tenants. They may have more properties than they can actually manage, however that's not an excuse because they decided to take on more than they could handle. They're lucky to get 3 stars from me right now.

A month later, after we have already moved, we have had no communication with the property manager who is suppose to be renting out the house. I've called several times just to be told they are working on it by the receptionist. Finally I got fed up, and called the broker, which I guess is the property manager's manager. After my complaint, he literally said okay, and didn't offer me a resolution or anything. They care nothing about if they keep their business obviously, nor about military families. Only after I demanded to get out of the contract, they told me that someone had put in an application for my property, which the application was apparently just sitting there with no attention. I would not suggest this business for property management to anyone. Beware.

If I had a year, I don't think I could fully explain how wonderful Janice of ERA is. We are a…read moremilitary family, and found out we would be moving across the country as soon as my husband came home from from a year long deployment. So many people reccomeded Janice, so we contacted her the very next day. First time home buyers, while I was in California and my husband was on the opposite side of the world. Not exactly ideal, but Janice bent over backwards to explain every step to us and to make sure we were getting the exact house we needed and wanted. We needed a home with land for our horses on a tight budget, and somehow she found us a PARADISE. She went out to properties and recorded videos walking around the property itsself, and also walking through the house.. not just pictures. She was amazing in negotiations as well, and the entire process went so smoothly that we are still so impressed!! She held onto the keys for us until we arrived, and we remain in contact! You couldn't be in better hands if Janice was your realtor. I would say "we would use her service again", but we never want to leave the fantastic house she found us!!

She went to Lincoln Realty to look for a rental home for us. She found a series of very nice, clean homes, which are in good condition and in a good area. The office took care of getting us into our home. They are very nice and respectful people. Took care of any little problem we had and had no worry. Nice little house on a quiet street, close to shopping. If we need maintenance, they are quick to do. We are coming up on a year here, and we will surely continue to rent this house until we buy.

It was a constant hassle the entire year I was stuck with these sorry good-for-nothing landlords!…read moreThey were all nice and appealing until I signed the lease and then they did not give a crap. They didn't fix half of what they said they'd fix because apparently the house owner (which was not them) refused to pay for it. My lease was with Valdosta Properties, not the owner of the house. When I turned in my notice that I would not be renewing my lease with them, they demanded I fill out all this BS paperwork or they would charge me in fees until I did. It went down hill from here! They did not process my last months payment before the deadline (their fault) and charged me a $75 late fee. They refused to fix their error in charging me this fee. When my deposit was finally returned to me, they had charged me with $500 in fees. I left that house in much better shape then when I moved in! I was charged for the weather stripping on the back door to be fix even though that was on my move-in list (they refused to fix it when I moved in because the owner didn't want to spend the money). They charged me to touch up the paint on a closet door which was also marked on my move-in list. They charged me to clean the carpet which I had cleaned but I was charged anyways. And they charged me for lawn care which I know was left in better shape than when I moved in because that was a nightmare to fix when I moved in. Overall, these people are a nightmare to deal with. I thought I had bad landlords in the past but these people win the award for the worst landlords yet! I will never rent from these people again and I do not recommend you rent from them either.
