Ive been really patience and nice despite how I've been treated…read more Ive been living in their properties for around 4 months now. The first property I moved in didnt work because of the owner rules; one day i woke up to a man tiptoeing out of my kitchen. Me and my daughter was asleep on the couch. I immediately jumped and reached for my gun. In order to walk to the kitchen, he had to walk past me and my sleeping baby which didnt sit right with me. When I called Ellie's regarding this issue, some seemed apologetic & understood how badly that could have gotten while others stated it was out of their control because he was hired by the owner, which didn't sit right with me so management allowed me to transfer units. My current unit, Ive been in for around 3 months. Still managed my Ellie's. Since day 1 of move in there has been clear signs of mice & ant infestation. Ive made them aware of this day 1, sending them pictures/ videos. There are so many entryways due to amount of holes. The main one is the kitchen cabinet which also contains a ton of mold that has yet been addressed(also made them aware day 1) the cabinet has a HUGE chunk missing and it connects to the outside which is how they're getting in. Mind you, they moved me in knowing this. While inspecting the massive hole underneath the cabinet, I noticed blue bait which is more confirmation that they were aware of the infestation prior to me moving in. I found my 8 pound dog in the bathroom, eating that same blue bait. I looked under the bathroom cabinet and seen they laid some out there too. Again, confirmation that they KNEW. my final 2 strikes was seeing a mice run from my baby closet(on the SECOND FLOOR) that same day her face and eyes were so swole due to her being allergic. Then, at 7am while bathing my daughter, I seen a baby mice running from underneath my bed. Confirming the problem has now grew due to them not taking this issue seriously or making tenants aware of infestation BEFORE move in. I still have yet received a response from the property manager. The office answer every now & then but they are helpless because they have to go through management to get things done. The first week of me living here, they sent a pest guy that said he couldn't treat for the mice because it isnt his job to patch holes; he stated they will only keep coming back until they're patched by maintenance and only left 3 ant traps on the counter for me to sit out on my own. After weeks and weeks of calling about the mice again, they are wanting to send the same pest guy out who did nothing the first time. I spent the last few weeks preparing because now I am able to withhold rent: I have documented all communication on my end, all of the mice poof, ants, mold, doctor appointments, therapy documents, communication with previous tenants, etc. It's a violation to move someone into infestation especially while being aware! my 2 year old is allergic and still no empathy has been shown. No discount. No proper treatments. Rent is 1900 I decided to go up in rent to avoid things like this. it's only me & my daughter on the lease. Not me, my daughter, and a family of mice & ants . Something needs to be done! Every neighbor I have talked to, has them too which could be why Ive been ignored and treated like a nuisance. I'm not understanding why not take this serious considering there is so many airbnbs over here, my next step will be letting the guest know the area they're paying to be in is infested.

Timely communication and follow up has always been Ryan's strength. Ryan comes to the table ready to identify the issues and is prepared with good solutions. Now that we live out of State, we know we are in good hands with Ryan. Things that really stood out to me was his business practices. Royal Gate has excellent protocol starting with the screening process through to the Move In process. The thorough documentation and pictures taken at move in/move out is fantastic! This benefits both Landlord and Tenant. Honestly, Ryan is such a personable guy, he treats people with respect. Our tenants are happy. Did I mention Ryan has a construction background? He was able to give us valuable suggestions on repairs/renovations and ongoing maintenance. Ryan is also a licensed real estate agent. We used him on our latest sale and he handled it like a pro! I can go on and on but it really comes down to trying him out. We've been burned by Property Management companies before, I'm so glad we got off the last pirate ship and lived to tell about it LOL. It is a total 180 with Ryan! He gets the job done!

He knew the local market well, he quickly adjusted to my needs, worked with my local friend who was helping with the process, and helped me find a place that suited me perfectly.

They scam their tenants. After months of going back and forth about black mold and flooding in a…read morehome we were renting. I finally said we needed to move. They didn't have a property that accommodated our family so I was told by Rick and Andrea that they spoke with the owners and we could change our lease from a 2 year to a 1 year and we could move out. Ok great! We began to move out. Prior to us leaving Rick asked if I would allow people to come and view the property sure. I didn't care I wanted out because the mold was making my kids sick. After moving out and doing the final walk through with Rick he said everything was good I handed over the keys and left. Now after over 30 days I called and spoke with Ryan who is now the property manager that we did not receive our deposit back. Due to fees associated to us moving out. I assured Ryan I had spoken with Rick and Andrea and I was told we would not have any issues and with getting our deposit back as long as the property was in good condition. I also expressed to them I was trying to avoid having to take legal matters and add medical fees and more due to this issue. I had been battling them with the flooding and mold for the entire time I was a tenant. Conveniently every time I call Rick not Andrea is in the office. I'm so frustrated and I've had to do this with our previous landlord and took them to court and won our deposit and more because of how they ran a business. I was trying to avoid having it do it again. I've called and left messages no one returns calls you have to call multiple times. I don't understand how a company can run a successful business like this. It's sad some people don't know their tenant rights. Please before you rent from them or hire them know that they are a for profit company and care about the dollar over morals. I will update this review after the legal proceedings. Here are a few pictures of the condition of our basement. That we paid for monthly and was told it was a livable space. After mailing a certified letter of 14 day to return deposit or going to court. I was finally contacted by Rick and he confirmed what we had previously discussed and apologized for Ryan not knowing the situation. I will be getting my deposit back. It's sad that it had to come to this but I'm glad it has been rectified.

If zero stars were an option, that is what we would choose. Jeremy Brenaman talks a good game and…read moreis very convincing both on the phone and in person. However, we wish we had read the reviews before signing with him to manage a single rental home. We had issues from the start when the contract was different than the terms discussed on the phone. It took significant time and effort to rectify while the house sat vacant. Numerous emails and voice mails remained unanswered once the contract was signed to get any kind of update on activity. We cancelled our contract and marketed the home ourselves. Within 3 days we had dozens of interested parties and nealy a dozen applicants. The home was rented quickly. We had placed $100 in our PMI account for future expenses when we signed the initial contract. We have repeatedly tried to contact Jeremy for that to be returned to us and have received no response. He signs his email "doing whatever it takes to earn your business". What a joke!
