Wendy is far and away the best realtor I've ever worked with.

First, Katy is a valuable employee for OOV. She was on top of everything in the reservation process…read moreand helpful when things went sideways. We arrived after 4:00pm, as instructed. The lockbox was empty - no key. I phoned the office in Yachats and left a message. No response. I called ten minutes later and left another message. No response. I seriously have to pee by this time after our 3 hour drive. It was also getting chilly and the website said the office closed at 5:00pm. Both of my calls were made before that. I remembered I had corresponded with Katy and located the email. I called her number and she answered right away. I explained the sitch and she said the manager just saw the message and was on his way from home to the office to get the spare key. She estimated about ten minutes and he'd be at the rental. Here's where it gets strange. About 25 mins later, the manager shows up, exits his car, didn't introduce himself, tells us the key is probably sitting inside, and has a screw driver in his hand. "No spare key?" I ask. "No, but I have a solution." He then starts to try to Jimmy the door lock. I'm thinking 2 things: 1. So we'll be in a house without a lockable front door? 2. How does one Jimmy a deadbolt? Fatigue, bladder rebellion, and chillier winds made me say, "I don't think that's going to work and you're going to ruin your door. We'll just take a refund and find a motel in Newport. He pulls a set of keys out of his pocket and says there's a rental just down the road we could use. And it's a better one. Ok, I always appreciate it when a person tries to make things right. The driveway into the property had multiple mud holes and going in I bottomed my car a bunch of times. We had to maneuver those holes every time we went out and came back. The house was bigger. We could use the hot tub, but the original rental didn't have one so none of us had bathing suits. The house was clean but it seemed it hadn't been readied for guests. There were few towels and 5 of us (in a house that was for 8) almost ran out of toilet paper. The table cloth had recent juice stains on(we just took it off), and the dishwasher was full of clean dishes. We unloaded so we could use it. I know people have bad days and things can go haywire. What concerned me in this experience was: - no response to my calls before closing time - no spare key - a screw driver to Jimmy a lock and a dead bolt? - having to ask for a refund to trigger the offer of the other place - not aware of readiness status of the place offered Hopefully this was a Murphy's Law one off crazy day. If not, OOV needs improvement.

I cut my lip, which isn't serious but when I put that fact in my review ( I thought for safety , I should mention it to other renters) they wouldn't print my review. it's been two days and I thought maybe they'd post it, but they removed it. I don't understand why so I posted here.

NOT. the house has structural issues, was infested with mice and rats among bats... too much to list but let me just say the real estate agent and the seller had knowledge of all this but did not put it on their discloser or sayanything. I pissed cause I pay attention to this details cause you would think people would be honest. This is my experience and my opinion but if they were tricky in this what else are they being tricky about? Im just pissed off. I will try and find out if i have any way of doing anything legal about it but I would not recommend Sonia at Martek seems that she's just greedy for money doesn't have good ethics.

There's also a piece of glass in each bedroom doing the same and I'm sure over the long period I'll live here. There will be others so I will definitely be back and use them. When a company is willing to come out to you and not complain about anything or charge you for a visit you better grab them. Also, they've been in business since the 1950s which says a whole lot.
