Having walk alongside us allowed us to feel completely comfortable every step of the way. With moving being one of the top life stressors having someone who is an expert at all of the ins and outs, extremely knowledgeable, able and available to answer questions as they come up is an absolute necessity.

Gary is has gone above and beyond from any realestate agent I've ever worked with. My partner and I…read morewere nervous about moving into a new state without knowing the area. Gary guided us to the best areas in the city as well as pointed out potential issues from houses we saw. This made us feel at ease as it was our first home purchase. He has excellent communication and would text/call/email us paperwork on the spot. He truly advocated for us when the sellers were being a bit dramatic lol. We had no idea until the end of the sale. We will happily reach out to Gary for all our Realestate needs. He even still checks in on us us a month after our purchase!

I have been having issues with my A/C unit for 3 summers at Stone Creek Villas. The current…read moretemperature in my apartment on 9/20/2022 is 81 degrees. The Villas are managed by CIP. They have been sending maintenance people and excuses to me every summer. There is no corporate oversight at CIP! All issues are directed back to the individual property manager which is the person that probably has not solved the problem. It's also the individual you are trying to file a complaint against! The worst service I've ever encountered on a recurring basis. They are really creative with explanations of why the A/C SHOULD NOT WORK! I highly recommend you NOT consider a move to this development. The appliances, furnace, A/C, and all interior fixtures are dated!

On October 8, 2022 after almost 3 years renting at Stone Creek Villas managed by (Commercial…read moreInvestment Properties, Lincoln, NE) I received an email that stated I was in a building that had been designated non-smoking since the day we moved in November 22, 2019. CIP admitted a mistake was made in the original lease of November 22, 2019. That lease did allow smoking as did the renewal of the lease on November 10, 2020 so for 2 years smoking was allowed! On December 9, 2021 we renewed the lease. We had lived at Stone Creek for 2 years so when my significant other asked and was told there were no changes in the terms of the lease we believed the CIP representative....we signed the lease extending the term for 6 months. On May 2, 2022 we extended the lease for an additional 12 months even though apartment is dated, old appliances, fixtures, poor maintenance, etc. only because they allowed smoking. In short when I explained on October 8, 2022 that there was a mistake we could smoke...I was informed that the lease was changed to non-smoking with the renewal on December 9, 2021 and again in the renewal lease of May 2, 2022. Sure enough buried in the 31 page lease on the back page of the "Liability Addendum" was a "No-Smoking Addendum". LET THIS BE A LESSON THERE ARE UNSCRUPULOUS PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANIES OUT THERE! On October 10, 2022 I suggested a compromise to either be moved to a smoking apartment or move up the expiration date of the lease. The following was the response from CIP (Commercial Investment Properties) on October 10, 2022: At this time we do not have availability for the floorplan you are currently in. We do offer a smooth move program within all of our CIP communities, this would mean you would have to sign a new 12-month lease wherever you do end up, and reapply for that community as well. That is something I can look into for you, I believe the only smoking communities we may have availability at would be Southwind Villas on 96th and Giles, Eagle Run Apartments on 120th and Blondo, and The Grand Legacy on 180th and Center. As I stated with you on the phone your building has been non-smoking before you even moved in, this was something that we missed and we do apologize for that. We understand that this is a big deal for you guys as smokers. Regardless of that, you both did sign the lease so you are assuming responsibility of what you did sign. If you guys do choose to leave, you will be responsible for a break lease/buyout as this was signed within your lease renewal so it was assumed that all parties were in understanding of the lease and terms it presented. Respectfully, MY ADVICE! CHARACTER AND HONESTY ARE EVERYTHING! At any rate you make your own decision but I would not recommend or trust this company. October 10, 2022 SEE THEIR RESPONSE BELOW! THE 2 LEASES RAN FROM FROM NOVEMBER 22, 2019 THROUGH DECEMBER 2021 FOR 2 YEARS THE LEASE DID NOT CONTAIN A NON-SMOKING ADDENDUM! SO THEIR RESPONSE IS NOT HONEST! IT WAS THEIR MISTAKE FOR 2 YEARS NOT ONE YEAR AS THEY JUST STATED!
