I just moved in and had such an amazing experience, i had to write a review asap!…read more Before move: From the start Jenny has been great. She was really prompt and forthright when i contacted via craigslist about the room and would check in every few days (in a sweet and not annoying manner mind you) about my interest, how my moving process was going etc. She was transparent and genuine and i never felt like i was being misled or asking too many questions. She very much focused on my feeling safe and a right fit for the place and current roommates than trying to hustle me into a contract. As i would be moving site unseen from out of state, i really appreciated this. I've never had such a caring and hands-on landlord-tenant experience before this let alone before signing a contract and moving in! Moving in: this was a breeze AND since i was coming from out of state, Jenny offered to pick me up from the airport, take me to run errands all before signing my contract! When signing paperwork, she pro-rated my rent as i moved mid-month though i had said i would pay for the full month as a guarantee for my spot. She even fixed and lent me her new bike without my asking as she knew i wouldnt have any transportation moving here. Also there was a delay in my stuff being shipped and they lent me a sleeping bag and offered an air mattress. Also her daughter was sweet enough to offer showing me around Eugene and going to the store if i needed anything. All of this really shows you how much they care about their tenants and treat us all like family. If you have a problem, the expectation is to go to them and collectively find a solution. I can't wait to develop this relationship further! The place: it's even better than the pictures! Everything is brand new and in mint condition, house is well-maintained and they are closeby and on hand to come fix or lend you anything as needed. All of their properties are in a GREAT neighbourhood - this location is hard to beat. I really feel like I've moved into a community and warm environment - not just a place to store my things. I am incredibly happy with my decision and would give more stars if possible!

She was always responsive, clear, and kind which made a stressful transition a lot easier especially when I was sick and with walk-through tours that worked with my schedule due to my teen being home. I really appreciated how she stayed on top of everything and kept me informed every step of the way. I also want to mention the front desk receptionist she was incredibly kind and helpful whenever I stopped by or called with questions. It's always nice to be greeted with warmth and patience, especially during a busy time. I'll be adding another review once Bell completes the final move-out inspection but I wanted to take a moment now to highlight the positive experience I've had with Meahgan L and the front office team. Thank you both for making a difference!

Deposit refund was not received within timing of Oregon tenancy law and their excuse...check was in the mail.

We provided a copy of our Renters Insurance the day we picked up the keys to the apartment. They…read morethanked us but apparently still notified a vendor they use to "force place" their own Renter's insurance. We have been fighting to get 1.5 months worth refunded because their vendor says they will only refund since the time WE notified them and uploaded to prove we had our own insurance. It is not a large sum of money (less than $25) but it was their error and PTLA - Westwood apartments is refusing to refund the money. Bureaucratic red tape... maybe even fraud. At this point they have spent more money responding "no" to us than they would have if they simply corrected THEIR mistake.

Back before PTLA bought the building the Hutton was a well oiled machine - maintanence was always…read morecompleted the day after requesting, property management was on top of the rest, and rent was a reasonable price for the area. As these things tend to go, PTLA came in and jacked up the price while making service much worse. My car has been broken into 5 times (even though I leave nothing in it) and my bike was stolen out of a locked bike room, luckily PTLA removed all the cameras so we will never know who did this. It isn't hard to imagine though, a homeless person camped in the basement parking lot for months without them noticing. I woke up yesterday to see a homeless person sleeping on the steps outside the apartment, so not much has changed. For $200 more in rent you can have all these perks plus a fresh coat of pain to the building exterior. They made sure to cover up our windows while doing so, leaving no ventilation and putting us in sweltering heat last summer. The interior of the apartment, meanwhile, has been exactly the same. If PTLA wanted to improve I would recommend doing anything to hire back Traci, as she actually cared about residents and was very thorough in building upkeep. Prospective tenants - while most property management in Eugene is terrible I would still recommend looking elsewhere, PTLA is not worth it.

I will never rent from Emerald PM again after living in an apartment they managed for 4+ years…read more Though there are certainly some kind and helpful folks there, the company overall is bad to rent through. We had many issues with them. TLDR: Emerald allowed the building to be unsafe, dirty, and largely unmaintained, and communicated poorly with tenants. BREAK-INS: During the last year I lived there, homeless people were breaking in every day to loiter and sleep in the common areas as well as store belongings. They also did so outside the building, where they would burn campfires very close to the structure itself. This went on for months and was never addressed by management until shortly before we moved, where they promised to hire on-site security -- a promise that clearly has still not been fulfilled as I pass the building regularly, and still see encampments every time. RECURRENT FLOODING NOT FIXED: Our upstairs neighbor's pipes flooded dirty water into our apartment at least 4 (!!) times while we lived there. We were told the first time it happened that it had been happening off and on for years. This issue was never looked into or resolved beyond plumbers fixing the immediate leak. The amount of structural damage and mold that has to have been caused by this is unpleasant to think about. SKETCHY TENANTS: They did nothing about tenants engaged in dangerous illegal activity. The first year we lived there, we had drug-using neighbors who purposely left security doors open, brought in dangerous people seeking money from them, and went on to steal multiple packages and even a decoration off my front door. Later we had a man who was clearly dealing drugs, letting in sketchy people, and there were multiple times we had to call CAHOOTS due to unwell drug users in or in front of the building. BROKEN DOORS: The keyed front door and passcode-locked doors, which presumably were often allowed to sit broken for long periods. MAINTENANCE REQUESTS IGNORED: Our move-in list of requested maintenance was ignored. Almost all maintenance requests were ignored for the last half of our tenancy -- they would often be set to "technician assigned" and we would never hear back from anyone. Particularly egregious when it came to the building's roach problem. MISC COMPLAINTS: - After I informed the property manager a neighbor had been stealing from us, he told me I should just feel lucky I don't live in Portland. Absolutely insane customer service. - Common areas and parking lot were not cleaned or maintained once after our first year. Always dirty. I was embrassed to have anyone over. - No on-site manager or any kind of check-ins with management on-site, ever, except to show off when selling the building. - Rent was priced outrageously for where it was and how unsecured and poorly maintained it was.

I would not recommend a property management company, to property owners or potential renters, that…read morecannot do the most basic functions of its job which is to answer questions of potential renters. I would also not recommend a property management company that does not know the most basic information about the properties that it is renting. I emailed Emerald Property Management three times with no response. I emailed a fourth time and informed them that I was a disabled Afghanistan veteran. At which point I received a reply with the excuse that the point person for email inquiries had been on vacation. So again, if you are a property owner, you can be rest assured that your property will sit on the market while Emerald Property Management takes vacations and ignores questions from potential renters. If you are a renter or potential renter, you can be rest assured that Emerald Property Management cannot do the most basic functions of its job, which is to answer questions of potential renters so as to rent out the property they are managing. Sounds like there isn't much property management going on at Emerald Property Management: they don't know the most basic info about the properties they are renting, they do not update the properties when they raise prices, and they cannot respond to basic questions from potential renters because they are too busy taking vacations.

I'd never contracted with a property management company when I reached out to Trio. I just needed…read moresomeone to take over my parents' rentals, and fast. A family friend referred me to Trio, based on familiarity with Trio's owner, Jason, via the Lane County Rental Owners Association. The LCROA has some useful advice for owner-members considering property managers, and some cautionary tales. I figured, "Its just a one-year contract. I can always change in the future," though I really wanted a management partner for the long term. I'm pleased to say that Trio has proven itself a long-term partner. After 18 months, I can safely say that they are a great group. Their monthly accounting is clear and comprehensive. Their communication about tenants and repairs is prompt and detailed without being overwhelming. If I had to name a complaint, because nothing is perfect, I'd say that they seem to be experiencing normal growing pains of a successful small business. To add staff they have to take on new properties first, which can be a tricky balance. I'm fine with that, given the amount of headache they're absorbing on my behalf. Go with Trio. PS - Trio deserves an extra star for handling one of my parents, the properties' prior manager, with grace. The parent has become quite confused lately, sometimes forgetting past conversations and understandings. Trio has always looped me in when this happens, and never lost patience, even though they are very busy people. I chalk that up to Jason's prior careers, and share it as proof of genuinely caring. What more could you ask for in a property manager?
