Seems unreasonable to be required to give even 1 star. This company epitomizes the term "Slum Lord". The people that work here drive decent vehicles. I'm assuming because they each are lining their pockets rather than fixing anything. Properties under their management could be deemed condemned, I don't know who they are bribing to stay in business. DO NOT rent from here, a roach motel is better. You would need to win a lottery to find a property that is even liveable.
It's not worth living with roaches when they get into the electronics and destroy them. Don't bother putting in a "ticket" for maintenance. Emergencies take them a full month to respond, if they respond. You cannot speak to a person for assistance. Once you've paid the security deposit and receive your key, they will not talk to you or even come to the front to see you for any reason. Period. They do not know business ethics nor care. Money oriented, not at all concerned with client SAFETY or satisfaction. DO NOT BRING CHILDREN TO SEE THE HOMES THEY MAY BE HARMED!

I love my apartment. Home Real Estate has been great. I have only had a couple of things that needed attention. They were handled immediately and very professionally. Great value, great location. I couldn't be happier

They fail to fix issues with property. I had $1800 light bill due to an issue with the central heating system. After explaining this to the manager of the company they filed eviction. I went to court and explained and they agreed that the rent shouldn't be paid until the light bill was paid off. They continued to file eviction every month hoping the courts would side with them and they didn't. I eventually just moved out because they were being refusing to work with me. They were very nasty and lacked compassion. It was annoying to keep getting off work to go to court about the same issue. If you can rent else where do that.

This company preys on people who don't have the resources to understand or fight for their rights. While there are some professional/civil people employed there, the office staff is combative and rude. People call the office when they are having an issue with their home.where they live 24/7 and keep all of their possessions. and the total lack of care or urgency or even compassion from the office staff is appalling.
This company also doesn't take great care of its properties.including paint, repair, and pests. Bad plaster jobs. Bad installation of baths, showers, and toilets. Drooping ceilings and floors. Vintage windows painted shut carelessly. It's a real shame for the city especially classic neighborhoods like West End, Ardmore, and West Salem, because the company manages a ton of different properties. Many of those properties are vintage homes with lots of potential. I guess that it's more important to squeeze every cent of profit out of the property than create beautiful and sustainable housing for the city and its residents.
