The owner's of the house were disrespectful and downgrading to my boyfriend and I when we were forced to move out for no reason (which they legally don't have to give) but told me continuously they would work with me through this transition and have not yet once. This is a horrible company with horrible customer service and support along with horrible owners they rent for. PLEASE find another company or someone else to rent through!

Military renters beware. We rented from them for three years due to a tough housing market when we…read morewere assigned to the area, making it close to impossible for us to buy a house. They charged us a ridiculously high rent, for what was a mediocre house in serious need of updates. The main issue was that they consistently refused to make sufficient repairs on the ac system, despite about 10 notifications we gave them that it wasn't working properly. We were ignored and then gaslit on multiple occasions, being told that it just feels warmer because it's summertime (even when it was only April!). When we could finally convince them to address it, they were only interested in the cheapest possible temporary repairs each time. We spent many days in an 85+ degree home with small children waiting for them to show us any thought or concern. But then when it came time for us to move out, they made a $900+ repair to the ac the week after we left and charged *us* for it by deducting it from our security deposit return, claiming it was our fault that it broke, which was not true for many reasons. Not to mention they nickel and dimed us for every little thing and conducted the pickiest move-out inspection I've ever seen. They also tried to charge us for carpet cleaning even though we provided proof we had the carpets professionally cleaned. They finally agreed to return that specific charge after we filed a dispute but still refused to not charge us for the major ac repair. We've rented multiple times and this is the worst we've been treated. It seems like they intentionally take advantage of people, particularly military, who have to move frequently. The way they treated us was just shameful.

Please, for the love of god do not use this property management company. We were let out of our…read morelease because they were in breach of their responsibilities as a landlord after threatening to sue them - think refusal to fix mold and flooding. After it ruined our washer and dryer we were done and sought out a lease break. When moving out, we had an employee tell us that this is the second time they've had to break a lease at this house because of mold and water damage. They have a clause in their leases that state if you pay the lease break fee, you have to pay rent until they re-rent the place which they were trying to force us to pay before threatening litigation. Not only that, when you move out, they want you to pay a professional to paint the house. We did not have a single thing beyond normal wear and tear and they are trying to charge us $1270 for the most insane things. We told them we would pay $175 which is what we think was fair on that long list and instead they are using their 3rd party company Rhino (that has multiple class action lawsuits against it) to come after us for money. They are truly only out for money and will screw over a tenant every single time. I am appalled that this company is even in business still. I have email documentation of every single thing I have stated in this review and included images of the flooding they refused to fix and the resulting floor issue due to moisture damage.

From a landlords side I have to agree with the claims that these people are unscrupulous…read more A Ravenal agent leased my meticulously furnished home to a couple that they obviously did not even do a background check for. Then gave them the keys without even meeting them in person even to check them in at the property. The irresponsible tenants decided to take all the furnishings, art and accessories and carelessly dump them into one room, damaging drywall and all items in the process. Then they rigged the satellite to get a free signal and broke the washing machine. We were in the guest house when the tenants decided to move out within the first few days because their dogs did not like my sweet golden retriever. We did not see all the damages until they were gone. The Ravenal's made the determination that THEY could go to court if charges were pressed by the tenants so fully reimbursed them for the deposit! Avoid this company at all cost.

With the time to search for apartments in Charleston nearing, I have to warn young adults and…read morestudents to stay far away from this (as previously mentioned in another review) joke of a property management company. If you are lucky enough to have a staff member pick up the phone, they are rude and are constantly blaming the issue on the person "above" them- and that person always happens to be on a business trip and is impossible to reach. I knew it was going to be a long year when I went to go pick up my street parking pass at the DMV. After getting to the DMV, I found out that the property I was in, was just outside of the street parking zone. I had confirmed with the property manager over three times that this unit had street parking- a huge factor for me. When I brought it to his attention, asking what my other options were, he responded with, "I might have said you would be able to get a parking pass, but honestly you don't have that in writing. So what can you do?" The property that I lived in, was above a family owned shop- the shop owner owned the entire building. The owner obviously cared far more about the property than Daniel Ravenel, and had fixed every problem I had before getting a response, if any, from Daniel Ravenel. Right before my lease was up, my roommates and I cleaned the place spotless. We have all lived in Charleston for 4+ years and are well aware of the move out expectations. We are also well aware of sleazy property management companies such as this one and decided to take a video moments before we left the property for the last time- documenting the condition of the entire property before leaving. We were shocked when each of us were only given a small portion of our security deposits back. After calling and e-mailing for weeks, I finally heard back from Daniel Ravenel. They charged us to repaint the entirety of the apartment. When I asked for an invoice of the painting services, I noticed they charged us for paint colors that were not even in the house. I was ensured that was a mistake and they would refund me- that's when they stopped fully responding. We were also charged an absurd cleaning fee. They argued that we left the place a wreck- claiming we left furniture that didn't belong to the property owner, left bags of trash, appliances, etc. They sent me photos old photos of the property as "proof"- they didn't think to remove the two year old time stamp from the photos. I pointed out to them that they were using old photos and I have *recent* video footage of the property right before I walked out. I then received an e-mail from Daniel Ravenel's attorney and was told I would have to go to court if I wanted to get the rest of my deposit back. I had recently taken a position outside of the state and didn't want to go through the hassle or costs, just for a few hundred dollars. Daniel Ravenel is completely aware that as young adults, we won't take it as far (or don't have the means to) as going to court over a few hundred dollars. It truly is a shame that this team takes advantage of that and is continuing to rip off and deceit its tenants. Please do your research and find another property management team! Avoid at all costs!
