    Absolutely stress-free, highly professional and reliable property management experience!…read more As a retired Air Force medical officer, for over 40 years I have owned income property in several states as well as overseas. I have been using the services of Schambs Property Management Group for my rental properties in the 12 Oaks Subdivision of Holly Springs, NC for over 10 years. During this period, Brian Schamb and his team have made long-distance landlording completely stress-free. Over the years they have clearly provided a five-star, stress-free, property management experience. Unlike my other rental management experiences, which I have unfortunately had in the past, his team has been consistently professional, and highly knowable and responsive. Simply they are easy to work with. They consistently follow-up to ensure the work was completed as quickly as possible. They also provide excellent clear and timely communication. Without any reservations, I highly recommend Schambs Property Management Group.

    I would strongly caution anyone considering renting through Schambs Property Management. My…read moreexperience has been extremely disappointing and frustrating. When we moved in, the carpets were in unacceptable condition--they had a strong odor and visible urine stains throughout multiple rooms. It was clear they had not been properly replaced or remediated prior to our move-in. This made the home feel unsanitary and not truly livable from the start. We started cleaning the carpet and there were mounds of cat hair that came up as well as baking soda, assuming it tried to be treated superficially before we moved in. We reported everything right away, expecting a reasonable solution. He sent a company to clean the rugs, but the next day the odor and hair was still there. We reported the photos and smell again, and Instead, we were told by Brian (the owner) that they would only replace the carpets if we agreed to extend our lease AND pay for half of the cost--even though this was clearly a pre-existing issue. He would not come visit himself or send anyone to experience the issue first hand either. It is incredibly frustrating to be asked to financially contribute to fixing an issue that should have been addressed before the property was ever rented out. Basic standards of cleanliness and habitability were not met, and the way this was handled showed a clear lack of professionalism and responsibility. We could not afford to move out and pay that cost of moving, plus a deposit on another home, so we had to split the cost and sign the lease. They just had the carpets replaced and the padding underneath was completely stained and visibly destroyed. Overall, this experience has caused unnecessary stress and left us feeling unsupported as tenants. I would not recommend Schambs Property Management based on how this situation was handled.

    I have had an excellent experience with Acorn and Oak property Management. The agent I worked with,…read moreLisa Rietzes, was pleasant, easy to work with, and clear about the steps I needed to take to rent. When I walked into my new kitchen, there was a gift box there. 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!

    We worked with Acorn + Oak for roughly 3 years managing our rental property, and unfortunately our…read moreexperience steadily declined over time due to poor communication, constant turnover in points of contact, and lack of follow-through. The final issue that led us to terminate management involved landscaping/tree work that perfectly summarized the broader problems we experienced throughout the relationship. We requested quotes for landscaping work in mid-March and did not receive them until we followed up weeks later. When the quote finally arrived, the pricing didn't add up correctly and had to be clarified after additional follow-up. We approved what was described as trimming and cleanup work, but communication throughout the process remained inconsistent. Scheduled work dates were missed, partial work was completed without updates, equipment was left at the property, and both we and the tenant repeatedly had to ask for status updates. Most concerning, a large holly/privacy barrier on the property was cut back far beyond what was communicated in the approved scope of work. We were later told after the fact that the vendor believed mildew/mold treatment required such an aggressive cutback, but that was never explained to us before the work was performed. Had that been communicated upfront, we would have had the opportunity to discuss options and understand the actual scope of work being approved. The larger issue, though, was not just the landscaping situation itself -- it was the ongoing lack of proactive communication and oversight. Over the course of our time with Acorn + Oak, we went through multiple points of contact and consistently found ourselves needing to follow up for updates, quotes, scheduling information, and basic responses. Even our tenant expressed frustration with delays and communication issues. For a company charging a 10% management fee, we expected significantly better service, coordination, and accountability. Instead, the experience often created more stress and work for us rather than less. The Broker in Charge ultimately allowed us to terminate our agreement early, and we are now self-managing the property while evaluating better long-term options. I rarely leave negative reviews, but I think it's important for prospective owners to understand that communication and consistency were major issues in our experience.

    potential property owners and tenants, for the love of GOD do not do business with these scumbags…read more recently completed a two year lease with these clowns for a 3500 sq foot property in Cary. I will say they were fantastic right up to the point i moved in. with in weeks i had a water leak from the master bathroom requiring the master bath shower and tub to be removed and replace, (a three month process). (they knew about the issue before i moved in and did not address it, but painted the ceiling to cover the damage before i moved in.) they will conduct a 6 month review on the property. i get it, no problem but the old man that showed up came with a 360 camera. the same setups that relators use to show case a property. when i refused to let them use the camera they gave me attitude. they kept saying it was in the lease so i asked them to show me where i agreed to this. then they just conducted a walk thru and found now issues. also, it those two years, the washer failed three times and they finally replaced it. then the microwave/oven unit failed and they replaced it after a few weeks. at move out i requested a walk thru and they refused to complete one with me. i had to call three times a day for over two weeks before some idiot answered the phone and told me i would get any part of the deposit that wasn't used in 60 days. but he couldn't tell me what they were going to charge me for. please, rent from anyone else in wake county. absolutely anyone else.

They never…read moreanswer their phone, and even when you leave multiple messages, they simply do not call you back. It feels like they completely ignore their customers.Theyve sent unprofessional, unwanted vendors to my home to handle cosmetic issues I never requested, and in the process left me without access to a shower for several days despite me specifically asking them not to proceed with that work at this specific time. When my AC went out in the middle of summer and my thermostat was reading 84 degrees, I practically had to beg them to send someone to fix it. On top of that, my rent increases every year, and there are random additional fees that are never clearly explained. While I truly love the townhouse itself, I am choosing to leave solely because dealing with this company has been such a nightmare. On the rare occasion you do get someone to return your calls or follow up they are rude and completely unhelpful.I strongly recommend avoiding this company at all costs.

    TLDR - Don't work with this Property Management Firm if you want your safety deposit back at the…read moreend of the lease, if you value respectful conversation between adults and if you expect timely repairs when the property owners' items break. - Our interactions began with Franchelle Stevens, Owner/Broker-in-Charge according to the Stevens Realty and Relocation website. - Initially the relationship between our two parties was good. We always paid the rent several days early. We were quick to identify deficiencies in the property and report them promptly before it became a more serious problem. - We were ideal tenants for the three years that we resided at the property overseen by Stevens Realty. - This is in spite of the fact that it took days to fix the hot water heater in the winter, or that the shower door in the primary bathroom remained inoperable for months. - Things changed once we provided out official notice to vacate. - To be clear, our interactions with Julie Graves remained consistent and professional. - Also, I have never had any interaction with Todd Stevens. - Once we provided the notice to vacate the property, Franchelle waited 30 days before requesting a 30 day extension to continue assessing the property for "damage"- When we asked about the extension and were told that by law they have the right to request an extension. - When we asked about the specific nature of the extension we never received a response. - Several weeks after receiving no response we received an email informing us that we would only receive a partial refund of our security deposit. There was no explanation, just a link with several pictures. - When I questioned why $800 was being kept from our refund I received the following answer. - "Scrape and remove stickers from fridge / replace broken crisper drawer" $150 - "Prime walls for paint with rips and heavy scuffs and crayon and pen drawings" - $650 - The crisper drawer was broken before we moved in which their records will indicate as they always take before and after photos of the property. - The home required a paint job between us moving out and the next tenant moving in simply due to the duration of time that we lived in the house. - We were not allowed to hang pictures, put holes in the wall for nails or decorate the house in the almost 3 years that we lived there and still we were charged an excessive fee for painting over areas along a wall that required to be painted anyway. - The total cost to paint the home was $3564 of which they passed $650 of the cost to us for painting a location that required new paint regardless of the crayon on the wall. - When I questioned the veracity of the charges, Franchelle took over the communication and became verbally aggressive and attempted to end the conversation immediately providing us no recourse for dealing with a situation in which we felt we were being taken advantage of. - After this unpleasant experience I did a little more research into the Stevens Realty & Relocation organization and discovered that they received a 2.3/5 stars on yelp. - Combine this with their 3.1/5 rating on Google and I think it becomes clear that this property management firm is dishonest, they have a habit of keeping security deposits and worst of all, Franchelle is incredibly rude and disrespectful. - You'll have the opportunity to see her in action when she is compelled to provide her vitriolic response to my review. Good luck choosing your next property management Company!

Franchelle and Todd have been managing our family's real estate for many years, and have our complete confidence and trust. They know the market well, and their professional team provides excellent, timely service. They are always fully engaged and responsive; whether finding new high-quality tenants, or handling ongoing issues and needs. Franchelle is also a very knowledgable Real Estate broker; and she has helped us purchase and sell several rental properties over the years. Owning rental properties is never a problem-free endeavor; but the Stevens Realty team makes it feel as smooth and easy as it could possibly be. I would not hesitate to refer serious landlords and tenants to them and have done so on several occasions.

I've known Justin by working with him through my business for the past 8 years, which has put me in direct contact with hundreds of Realtors throughout the years. My husband and I met with him in April 2025 to talk about listing and officially hired him to sell our house that June. Even in a tough market with plenty of competition in our own development, he gave us the honest, data-driven advice we needed to set a realistic price. His marketing was excellent and showcased the house perfectly without being overdone--which is something I appreciate. It got people out to see the property, even in our rural area. We were honestly prepared for the long haul, but his strategy worked and we had a full price offer in under a week. Justin's sense for the market is incredible and he is easily one of the best in the business. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him or bring any of his Premier Agents Network team's expertise in to help guide your next move.
