The integrity and character of a company speaks volumes, and my experience with Stork made that very clear. I'm honestly so happy I got away when I did. Looking back, I truly believe I made the right decision for myself, and I'm grateful I recognized it and moved on when I did. Not recommended. Do not rent from these people. Based on my experience, I wouldn't put my dog in a unit managed by Stork, let alone another person. The way residents and employees are treated speaks volumes about the company's values and priorities. I would strongly encourage anyone considering renting from Stork to do their research and think twice before making that decision.

Broadly speaking, they are the dogs that everyone says they are. If you find a place of theirs…read morethat you really like that's at a favorable price and -- and this is the critical part -- you can commit to yourself that you won't expect or hope that they'll turn out to be something different than what they are, go for it. However, break that deal with yourself, and you're entering a world of pain. Here's what they won't do. They won't steal from you outright. They won't ignore your emails. They won't let major maintenance requests go unaddressed or otherwise fall down on their obligations under the lease. None of that happened in my experience. But you can't expect to be treated well or like you're the customer. You're not. Their job is to hold the account with the property owner. All you're ever going to do is come to them with problems. You have no leverage. All you have is goodwill. The leasing process and terms of the lease have you bent over a barrel. You have to accept it. You are not positioned to alter the terms of the lease in any way whatsoever; their signing process effectively precludes this by first requiring a non-refundable deposit from you (that converts to first month's rent) to take the property off the market. You'll see the lease afterwards. That's super aggressive, but it's not illegal. If there's carpeting, whatever its condition (see photo), your lease will require you to have it professionally cleaned upon move-out, passing on to you a cost that's typically assumed by the landlord as ordinary turnover. Again, that's pretty aggressive stuff, but not illegal. No documentation submitted upon move-out? You pay. Don't like that? Well, then don't sign the lease. (Forfeit the deposit. You pay.) You'll be enrolled in their insurance/benefits program under the terms of the lease unless you proactively opt out. That's both at move-in and at renewal. You won't receive a courtesy reminder at renewal. That's your responsibility. Miss the deadline by a few days? You pay. Is it starting to make sense? My property manager was located in Mexico and managed the property remotely (through photos emailed in by contractors). Yours may be too. This one was a stunner, I have to say. You can find elsewhere online testimonials from the property managers themselves, along with information about their work and educational backgrounds. Ask yourself what that would be like for that person, to manage a broad-based portfolio of rentals in Baltimore, Maryland. Now ask yourself how that person might feel about you if you were to become less than ingratiating towards them. I understood what the deal was going in. And so I didn't complain when I spent the first week or so in the property giving it a deep clean (windows, moulding, cabinet tops, etc. Or when old cleaning rags and refuse came up out of the sink drain when I ran the dishwasher for the first time (see photo). Or when my bed sheets were stained by a dryer that had accumulated burnt lint around the heating element at the back of the machine (see photo). I accepted it all as part of the deal I knew I was making. But somewhere along the way, I decided that I'd suffered the last indignity--that I'd done this, that, and the other; and swallowed so much; and that it was about time that they did the right thing for once! And so I let the demon in... Do yourself a favor. Go find a mirror and stand in front of it. Ask yourself, how well do I really know myself? Am I sure? Can I even be sure? There's a reliable way to find out. Rent with Bay Property Management.

I moved into a condo managed by John Thompson about 3 years ago. At the time I had just come out of…read morea bad living situation and I desperately needed a safe and reliable place to live. I found that. The application process was seamless. I was approved quickly and the transition was smooth. I had my keys and access to the unit quickly. The last few years have been amazing. Whenever anything was broken and we submitted a maintenance request, it was addressed quickly. Nothing remained broken for long. John even came over and replaced the batteries on the smoke detector when I couldn't figure out which one was low and the beeping wouldn't stop. Our microwave broke and I messaged John and it was replaced within a few days. In my experience Scout Properties is a great property management company. They are reliable, responsive, nice human beings. It was a pleasure to have our home manager by this company. John's the best!

When we first started with Scout Properties, things were great. Our first manager, Nick, was…read moreprofessional and easy to reach. But after Victor took over, everything went downhill fast. I'm not sure Victor ever really knew who we were and I can't be sure he ever visited the apartment before things really went to crap. He completely missed a major toilet leak--even after the tenant moved out--which left us with a cumulative $5,773.14 water bill. Then Scout didn't handle the tenant's voucher renewal properly, with no warning to us, which made the tenant move out early and cost us rental income. Even worse, we've now been stuck for several months without a tenant and have had to cover all the turnover costs ourselves. Despite that, Scout still charged their full management fees while barely responding to us. All of a sudden, Scout dropped us as clients (including our neighbors who were clients also), kept the fees, and stopped returning calls. Our next‑door neighbors had the same experience -- and told us their tenant was even offered an apartment at another property managed by Scout. Everything started fine but turned into one expensive, stressful mess. Don't hire Scout Properties unless you want poor communication, big bills, and months of lost rent.

The man who showed me the apartment I was…read moreinterested in was very nice, but didn't know much about the property or me (he was waiting in a different unit than the one I wanted to see because he got mixed up). That would have been fine. But what really annoyed me was the application process. The management is not familiar with more modern ways to verify employment and income (such as third party service) and insisted on unredacted pay stubs - which is much less secure. The interaction as we went back and forth was rude and reminded me of scammers trying to get one to divulge information urgently (because so many people are interested in the apartment!) at the cost of better judgement. In trying to get more information from me they cited their "policies" but being unable to articulate why their policy insists on having the information I didn't want to share (like my pre-tax deductions) This conversation was not with some mid-level employee but what seemed to be the owner. I should hope he could articulate the reasoning behind his own policy! To me, this company clearly orients themselves to customer service of property owners, not renters. Which fair enough, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. To the reader/renter: Don't let these people bully you!

My roommates and I found a beautiful home on…read moretheir site, and from my very first correspondence with Hanna via phone, the communication has been flawless. Prompt responses to emails, quick answers to phone calls, transparent updates throughout the process, and even reassurances to call you back if they are tied up at the moment (and they actually call back as soon as they can!) Since my roommates and I are all out of town at the moment, and unable to tour the property in person prior to signing the lease agreement, Hanna assured me that her assistant Johnny would send me a video tour the following day. And sure enough, the next day - Johnny had a detailed video tour of the home in my inbox. Any question I had about the property, Johnny was able to answer. We so look forward to working with Hanna and her team during the duration of our lease agreement. If the last week is any indication of how our experiences will be as Rent the District tenants, I very much look forward to staying at this property. Hanna and Johnny were both very friendly, and professional. I will recommend Rent the District to any of my friends who look to rent or have property management services in DC. Thank you again!
