    Acorn + Oak Property Management - Mold ripped from under the house left in the yard :)

    Acorn + Oak Property Management

    (93 reviews)

    My experience with Acorn + Oak was fine until move-out, which is when everything went downhill. I…read morehave rented several homes in Durham, and this is the only time I have had issues. The property manager, Erin Darnell, made the process unnecessarily difficult and ended up withholding a large portion of my security deposit under questionable claims. I was charged for carpet issues and odor, despite using the cleaning company required by Acorn + Oak, and the cleaning company confirmed there were no stains or pet-related problems at the time of service. I was never informed that the cleaning was considered "unsatisfactory" until after money was taken from my deposit. Erin later claimed a second cleaning was needed, but neither I nor the original vendor were given the opportunity to address this beforehand. Communication was inconsistent, and explanations only came after I repeatedly followed up. I was also charged for mold remediation, even though I reported the issue in compliance with the lease. Despite this, they still held me financially responsible for part of the cost. Although I eventually received a partial refund, it was not clearly explained initially and felt more like damage control than a fair resolution. I have documentation showing the home was left clean and in compliance with the lease. Only one inspection occurred during the three years I lived there, and I was never notified of any maintenance or cleanliness issues at that time. Overall, this felt like an attempt to keep as much of the security deposit as possible. I would strongly caution anyone renting through Acorn + Oak with Erin Darnell as the property manager to document everything and be prepared to push back at move-out. My original property manager was Celeste Sivori, and she was wonderful to work with. She communicated well and was compassionate. She is the reason this review is 2 stars and not 1. I'm truly sad I was not able to work with her for the time I was with Acorn + Oak. From what I can tell, your experience with Acorn + Oak depends heavily on your property manager, so read the reviews about how the property manager you might be working with treats the tenants. Based on my experiences, I would not recommend working with Erin Darnell.

It contained a roll of toilet paper, a small Hammer, a bottle of water, and several other necessities. It was so thoughtful because those are the kind of things you never can get access to when you move in. At first. Kudos to Lisa and the company!

A major plumbing issue was never fully resolved -- I had to escalate the matter through the answering service and even reach out to the vendor myself just to get any attention to it. There has been absolutely no follow-up from the management team -- neither with me nor with the vendor -- showing a complete lack of communication and accountability. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this company to anyone. I truly feel sorry for the property owner, as their investment is not being properly cared for.

My move out process was extremely unprofessional and rather stressful. I inquired about having a walk through with management before I vacated the property and was told there was no process in place for that and to just "drop the keys off." I had to follow up repeatedly for my security deposit and could not get an answer from anyone. Finally after repeated calls I was told that I would only receive a fraction of my deposit because of repairs. However, when I asked for documentation and for invoices for any repairs I was provided nothing. And trying to get someone on the phone or to respond to my emails was pointless. It was very frustrating to be treated this way. I strongly urge you to find another property management company.

The only time they let me speak to them directly over zoom they didn't seem to have any interest in what I had to say. Josh was the only one who responded and he was just condescending. Complete waste of time. I'm looking forward to leaving this property soon. I've never felt so uncomfortable living anywhere (and I'm from New York!). Edit to add: they replied to my Google review in typical dismissive patronizing fashion. Addressing everything but the point, idiots Edited one more time to add: wow. They've added a shill review on Google. I seem to have touched a nerve! So sad.

    I've been a resident at a Community Focus managed property for around 15 years now. Our…read moreassociation was one of first properties managed by them when they started out. I normally just pay my HOA dues and trust things are being handled around the building. Over the years, I've noticed the quality and value of services have declined. The common areas are not being maintained as they once were. Political ads are being shown in windows facing common areas, against the rules. A board member neighbor, installed an EV charging station on common property outside. There was no discussion or input from the community about this. The power cord runs over the space outside of my unit, and is an eyesore. I still haven't been able to get a straight answer on how this was approved. My questions and concerns have been met with malaise and a general disregard. I think they have grown too large too fast, and service has suffered. Just my observation.

After experiencing significant disturbances, I brought this to the attention of Louise Beck repeatedly and they told me that they do not manage that part of the duplex and to speak with the landlord 3. The landlord did nothing 4. My own dog was eventually bit on property, not once but twice (see picture) 5. I was living in a hostile environment, where unknown dogs roamed freely. The other tenant's dog even charged and barked at me on numerous occasions (see video) 6. Louise Beck did nothing to mitigate this and in fact basically sided with the tenant who is not even under their management 7. Instead of doing the right thing and having the other tenant cease her business on property ( as instructed by the landlord, but never enforced), I was eventually unable to renew my lease 8. Louise Beck knowingly allowed a scenario in which despite sharing a building, they had no "jurisdiction" to control the environment of half of the property leading to real consequences to me, the tenant who they were supposed to be supporting 9. As I was moving out, their behavior became increasing hostile and dismissive 10. There was no value in the services the Louise Beck offered; I highly recommend finding another property that is managed by competent staff 11. In retaliation, they even held my security deposit for the maximum amount of time that NC law permits, which included notifying me of an extended period, despite that I was not charged a single penny from the security deposit I have filed a complaint with the North Carolina Real Estate Commission which can be accessed here: https://www.ncrec.gov/complaintform/

Pros: Setting up a showing was easy. The two apartments that I viewed were nice and priced comparably to other places in downtown Durham for the quality and location. Cons: The person showing me the apartments (not the property manager) was not well-informed. I was told that there was no laundry on-site at one of the apartments, even though other companies had advertised on-site laundry for the same building. I emailed and called the property manager to confirm and didn't get a response for three days. Unlike the three other companies that I have been in contact with in Durham, if you are not the first to submit an application for a unit, West and Woodall keeps the $50 application fee, even if they don't run your credit. Being desperate to find a place, I called and their receptionist told me no one had submitted an application for one of the units I was interested in so I applied. They said the application approval process is supposed to take 3-5 business days so when I still hadn't heard anything after a week and a half I called several times to request the status of my application. Eventually, I gave up and applied for an apartment with a different property management company and got the application approved within a day.
