Report
I've lived 7 years as a resident at a property. The last 2years with T. R. Lawing managing. My overall two year tenant experience of this property management company is just ok. I paid my rent and a utility to them, and The communication was off hands. They cut the grass only and dumped the leaves in a corner of the back yard (Not landscaped). The yard crew (2people) destroyed a yoga mat I left outside once, covered it up, denied being there and refused to replace it or reimburse for it.
Maintenance request took far to long to be acknowledged or completed. Although the actual maintenance personnel was polite. Pull a fast one when it came to selling the property. But I learned a lesson. Oh well. So is life.

We were mislead the entire time. We were told by the tenant that we were first in line for a rental property and that TR Lawing was very "good about renting to the first families in line" for the application process. Despite the fact that my finances are superb, we were bumped from the property via TEXT MESSAGE (this is how they communicate), without an explanation. Good luck getting anyone on the phone to speak with you at all during the application process! They took my application money without delay, but the property manager couldn't bother to pick up a phone from start to finish.

I had an absolute terrible experience with this company, and should have written this review in 2019 when I fired them, and they charged me early termination fees for firing them for mis managing my property. Anyway, the rental agent was a person named Thad Gantt, and he is very unprofessional and unresponsive and very defiensive when you call him out. I also complained to the owner, Thomas Lawing, who defended his so called excellent handling of my rental. I wish I had never worked with this group of very unprofessional people.
