We rented a property through Gerard Property Management without seeing it in person, and…read moreunfortunately that decision exposed serious issues with how the unit was prepared. The home was not properly turned over prior to move-in. There were large, visible patch jobs on multiple walls, and the overall cleanliness was unacceptable. The condition of the unit upon arrival was far below any reasonable standard--unsanitary and clearly not ready for occupancy. And when I brought these issues to their attention, that was definitely something that they leaned on that this was site unseen, which was completely unacceptable. As someone with 10 years of experience in property management, I find it deeply concerning that a company would present a property in this state. There is a baseline level of care and habitability that management companies are responsible for, regardless of owner involvement. That standard was not met here. We had to arrange for professional cleaners two days in an row after move-in, totaling 16 hours of work just to make the space livable. Maintenance issues took OVER a full week to address. During this process, communication was inconsistent. When I raised these concerns with Cydney, I was told I was being "nitpicky," which was both dismissive and unprofessional given the severity of the issues. Questioning how SHE lives. Afterward, another representative (Jason/Justin) stepped in and did provide a rent credit while repairs and cleaning were completed, which was appreciated. However, the lack of accountability, poor communication, and initial condition of the property reflect broader operational issues. For property owners, I would caution that this company may not adequately protect or maintain your investment. For prospective tenants, I strongly advise against renting sight unseen through this management company. The experience suggests a pattern of inadequate preparation and reactive--not proactive--management.

I lived in a Cooksey rental property for a year. Before a month into our contract we had informed…read morethem of a LONG list of problems with the property that became apparent upon moving in: broken cabinets, non-functional garage doors, bugs, heavily stained carpets. After 2-3 calls Cooksey did just enough to keep us at bay - sprayed for bugs, sent someone to assess the garage doors (ignored the carpets and cabinets). Upon moving out, Cooksey began to attempt to bill us for things that were never taken care of, and not damaged by us: dirty carpets, garage doors. Overall, the contract with Cooksey was painful and frustrating. Beyond things not getting done, my main frustration was with the way my roommates and I were handled. Never were things taken care of timely or fully. Icing on the cake, VERY rude interactions over the phone and always avoided what was really going on. Don't rent from Cooksey.

She is a seasoned veteran and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

This is a review of the beginners photography class offered, and not of any other services…read moreprovided. Disappointed is an understatement. To preface my review, I had recently purchased a dslr camera, and have read 2 intro books on photography prior to taking the course. The $160 course is marketed as a 6 week session, with 2 hours a session. Roughly 30 minutes of which was dedicated to snack time, and the 6th session had no new material presented. That alone is about 5 hours of the 12 hours paid for that is wasted. The instructor spent roughly as much time either giving suggestions for what equipment to buy (ie. internal hard drives) as he did giving pertinent information to improving photography style. Minimal critique was given on homework assignments, and the pictures students took were often not reviewed until after the allotted class time was over. I perceive that as the work that the class completed was seen as less important than the snack time, but that's an opinion. A model was asked to come in for the 5th session, where the instructor spent 30 minutes conducting his own photo shoot, which proved to be a rather awkward experience. Not only were the students given minimal instruction and critique during their short opportunity to photograph the model, but the model seemed generally uncomfortable with some comments that were made during the session by the instructor. I wholeheartedly would not recommend taking this class if you are a beginner seeking to improve your technique with a digital slr. The alternatives of reading the manual that came with your camera, buying a digital photography beginners book, and searching through youtube tutorial videos are much more cost effective and rewarding experiences. Also, it will save you the trouble and stress of going home and complaining to your spouse after leaving this class each night.
