She's left them with no heater during the winter and won't fix anything that is broken in general. Expect to have dead grass because there are no sprinklers or gardeners. Once I called her to complain about our previous neighbors (we have had a lot since they all eventually leave the second the lease is up) they were parking over 8 cars in our driveway and would constantly block us out and I've been been late to work and scratched my car twice because of how close they would park. I told her it was a fire hazard and that legally she cannot have more that one family living in that home (I guess the neighbor would rent out rooms to her sons friends). I would knock on their door constantly and leave notes and even went to City Hall to see what I can do but thankfully I woke up one morning to see a moving truck and it was the best day of my life. They left and now our new neighbors only have 2 cars no more than 3. When I contacted Alma herself on the phone she told me "I don't give a crap, call the cops for all I care I don't have time for this" and hung up on my face. That's Alma Smith for you, I would stay away until she finally forks up this house and sells it because obviously she's doing a terrible job because at one point the house was on the market for a long time before someone even leased it and when someone signs a lease with her they always end up regretting it.

Highly recommend! I lived on a property managed by NorthStar for over 5 years. The rent was always…read morereasonable and definitely worth every penny. This is mainly because the manager of the property, Mel, sets the highest standard for what a property manager/landlord should be. He was always readily available if we ever needed to contact him. He was extremely efficient in responding and sending someone out to our unit if we ever needed something fixed, replaced, or looked at. The best thing about Mel is that he cared. He cares about the unit your renting or staying in, of course, be he also made it feel like he cared about us which is an uncommon quality in landlords/managers nowadays. If you ever get the chance to rent a property managed by NorthStar Real Estate Group and Mel, himself, you have to jump at the opportunity. You'll be in great hands.

In my experience, the way the company presented itself before we signed the management contract felt noticeably different from how things went once they were actually managing our community. Before hiring, communication felt positive and accommodating, but after the contract was in place, their responsiveness and overall attitude toward homeowners seemed to change in a way I found disappointing. Work orders were sometimes delayed, disregarded, or not completed. Communication was not always punctual, and at times interactions with homeowners felt argumentative rather than collaborative. I also had concerns about financial management. From my perspective, some contractor bids appeared higher than expected, and the accounting we received did not always feel clear or transparent. This left me uncomfortable with how funds might be allocated. Important due-diligence notes for boards considering this company (or any management firm): Carefully review the wording of any proposed repair scopes and contract terms. I encountered line items that felt vague to me. Do your own diligence: ask for detailed breakdowns of materials, labor, and contingencies. Obtain multiple competitive bids before approving repairs, and compare like-for-like scopes. Request regular, easy-to-follow financial reports and ask clarifying questions until everything is clear. These are my personal observations and opinions based on direct experience, and others may have different experiences. For any community evaluating management services, I recommend asking detailed questions up front, requiring transparent documentation, and closely reviewing contracts, scopes, and financials before moving forward.
