When we moved in the home the yard was unkept, there was overgrown grass, bushes, piles of leaves,…read moreetc. It looked like the yard hadn't been done in months. The yard is so bad you cannot get into the side gate to the backyard because a tree is blocking the entrance and the grass is high and the bushes have not been trimmed. I requested it be tended to because it was not in a condition that was acceptable as a new tenant. They sent someone over who only did half of the yard. They left the other part incomplete and stated that it would be done over time. We have been here about 6 weeks and it is still undone. When we moved in the refrigerator did not work. It took about 3 weeks to get a refrigerator. They did not provide us with any workarounds until a week or so before the new refrigerator came. We had to make other accommodations staying other places because we were not able to store any food. This was difficult as I am 9 months pregnant. We were without a refrigerator for weeks. There were bugs throughout the home, other people belongings in the home denying us access to utilize the property as it was advertised. We had to clean one of the rooms that was covered in dust and spider webs. Their excuse was that it was used as a storage room so it did not have to be cleaned. This property management company promised us they would clean the carpet in the room that was filthy. This has yet to happen. There were other understandable issues that we have had up to this point, however the lack of response and excuses from this company is ridiculous. There is no sense of urgency. I spoke to Yvonne who promised she would discount the rent for the month due to all of the issues. She did not. When I contacted them to inquire about it I was ignored. Not happy with this property management company.

I can't say enough good things about Jesse, Vanessa, and Yvonne. Process was easy and the fees…read morewere very competitive. Highly recommended!

I was attempting to find a place to rent in Cola and found the perfect place being rented from this…read moremanagement team. After putting in my application, everything seemed to go well at first, with my work and references being checked. They required I have a cosigner, which I was also fine with. However, I had some trouble getting someone over the phone as did my cosigner and her references. The breaking point was when one of their representatives lied to me, telling me that my application was denied due to them not being able to get in touch with my cosigner's personal references. Now, being denied isn't the issue, but the dishonesty about something I can easily check just by asking around is unacceptable. I don't recommend renting through this company, I wouldn't trust them to be honest with you either.

My daughter and her friends were interested in renting a property and we were sent a link and told…read moreto fill out the application form and that a $50 charge per person applying and their parent or co-signer was due. Then one week later we were told that the property that they applied for is no longer available and they would not refund the total of $300 in application fees they had collected. They said it could apply toward another property. This was not on the form and never explained. I have the texts to prove it. We are not interested in any of their other properties. I have called and left a message for Abigail but have not heard back yet. This constitutes a breach of trust and may be a criminal offense but at the very least we will be pursuing this in civil court if our money is not refunded.

She even suggested we re-measure the square footage, because she believed it was more, and it absolutely was, which made us more money on the sale! Lynn marketed our home online, and she explained how the market works, then negotiated with the buyer. Lynn listed and closed our house in 56 days! Now Lynn's helping us find our next home. You're in great hands when Lynn's leading the way!

I found Lynn through Yelp, and I could not have been happier or more satisfied with the experience…read more She was absolutely phenomenal and endlessly patient throughout our seven-month search for the "perfect" second home in the Columbia area, a home we also intend to use as our retirement residence. Lynn maintained nearly daily contact with us, consistently providing new listings, recommendations, and expert insights that stayed within our preferred parameters. She truly listened to what we wanted and never pushed us in any direction that didn't feel right. Her professionalism, warmth, and genuine commitment made the entire process smooth and stress-free. When we finally chose a home in Irmo, Lynn guided us every step of the way through closing. Her knowledge of the market, meticulous attention to detail, and constant communication gave us complete confidence throughout the entire journey. If you're looking for a realtor who is dedicated, responsive, and extraordinarily supportive, Lynn is the one. We couldn't recommend her more highly!

We've worked with Empire Property Management since 2008. Back then, we went through several…read moreunsatisfactory property managers until we found Empire. They are an excellent company and we have almost eight years experience with them and will continue as long as we have our rental property. They find tenants quickly and Tony is extremely responsive to them and us; he always addresses any issues and lets us weigh in on the larger items. We've had a few sets of tenants now and no major issues Tony can't resolve. In fact, the most concerning issue we had with a tenant who left before contract ended, Tony swiftly resolved with ease and the tenant paid the rent. He was on top of it - no drama. It's been great watching his business grow and I appreciate his ability to innovate and use online methods of management. Empire is very reliable - we've moved many times over the years, I've deployed, and moved overseas and all the while, Empire excellently manages our properties. This review is long overdue and I highly recommend Empire Property Management, and especially my military brethren looking for someone to manage a rental property. They are great!
