They may promise to delete the image, but why would I trust that. The DMV has stolen my plates before after I turned them in. You simply don't know. The fact they require it makes me suspicious. I am happy to hand over all markers of my identity ripe for online identity theft when I submit an application. They wouldn't even let me go IN PERSON and physically show my ID, which would be more secure on their end as my face would match the picture. Why would you need my ID in your system to open a door and let me look inside. Mindlessly bureaucratic and inhuman. Also took ages to hear back and my question and needs were rather simple. Though maybe they didnt understand why they have to comply with their own stupid policy and avoided my question, I understand. Suppose I dodged a bullet by being denied a viewing because I won't upload the most secure document in anyone's possession to an unsecure local property management website.

Things to consider and be aware of before you lease through them. - Boiler plate contract that includes items not applicable to the property leased. - Lack of understanding of utilities needed for unit and where to go to get them. Was told I would need to show proof of all utilities before I could get key. And half of the utilities are handled by landlord/owner. Shouldn't they know this as a management company? - Had to pick up key at their office on southside. There was no introduction to unit on where to find things, how to access the mailbox, hvac/ heating units, etc.. they had no idea which mailbox was associated to the unit. They should be able to tell you this. I think someone should meet you at unit and show you around on move-in day. - Had a lot of maintenance requests after I moved in. - They will nickel and dime you: --monthly pet rent- $40 --monthly benefit package - $30 --monthly rent -$2800 --monthly insur- $14.95 --one time pet deposit- $200 --one time non refundable fee- $100 --lease initiation fee- $175 --rekey fee- $75 --security deposit- $2800 - Communications are very generic and many times don't apply to you. They just send it out whether or not you need it or have already responded. - Checkout- had to drop off keys at Southside office. No feedback requested or confirmation of returned keys, openers or other community passes. - Demanded receipts for carpet cleaning and house cleaning in order to get security deposit. Which I gave them. Normally I wouldn't take issue with this but the place was not thoroughly cleaned at my move-in. I had the place cleaned before I actually stayed there and again before I left. Take pictures of the place before you move in - to have on hand to prove the condition of it, should you need it when you leave.

They were the selling point and decision maker in my coming here to rent. As for rent, we would all like our rents lower. It is scary being on a fixed income and facing that uncertainty.

They helped me search the parking lot and found something I had dropped and lost. They could have said they would keep an eye out and forgotten about it, but they did not. And in my conversations with other tenants, I have heard very few complaints, if any. I like the socials, the food truck events, and appreciate any activity that helps me meet other residents.

That level of care made a huge difference for my family. What truly sets Cityscape Realty apart is their commitment beyond just property management.

I rented from them from April 2021 to February 2023. At some point during the second year of my…read moretenancy, they were purchased by or merged with PMI Richmond. This review is strictly for Executive, though I don't think much changed with the new name. When I first moved in, I did a thorough move-in inspection, making sure to note everything I saw because I know how rental companies can be when it's time to move out. About a month or so into my lease, I noticed that both bathrooms had leaks in and around the shower. The upstairs leak was so bad that water would come through the light fixture in the kitchen downstairs. I reported both issues using the resident portal. I received a quick response that someone has would come look at it. Once they saw the issue a work order was approved in April 2021. They started with the master bathroom upstairs. The contractor they hired was not experienced at all. He was a nice guy but definitely let me know his expertise was electrical work, not plumbing and construction. Needles to say the bathroom wasn't finished until August 2021. I had one bathroom for 4 months. I thought they would immediately start on the downstairs bathroom when they finished. However she told me they would likely start after the holidays (January 2022). Once it was time for the downstairs bathroom, the contractor noticed soft spots in the floor and some sinking. He didn't feel comfortable doing any work in there. They had to call another specialist to look at it. Come to find out the bathrooms had been leaking so long, the wood under the house was sinking and rotten. Someone had to actually come reinforce the structure and lift the house! More delays. Clearly this house was not ready to be rented. The work on the second bathroom didn't start until June 2022. Almost my entire lease with 1 functioning bathroom! You think they reduced the price of rent? Absolutely not. And I had to pay for my own HVAC inspections each year. It was a horrible experience renting from them. The move out was no better. I've rented from many places. I've also been a landlord. I've never heard of a tenant having to paint the entire residence before moving out. A mess. I did everything they asked and more. The place was spotless! Fresh paint. Clean carpet. The works. Somehow they still found a way to keep $405 of my deposit. Now of what they charged me for was mentioned during the move-out inspection or noted on the paperwork. The inspector was there over an hour with me present. He didn't mention any of the items they claimed needed to attention. I really feel like they used the old "pet odor" excuse because they knew I had a dog. What they didn't know is that he passed months before I moved out and because I have a small child, everything was cleaned and bleach following his passing. And the carpet was professionally cleansed and deodorized. Of course when I said something about it, there was no response. I would never rent from them again.

A person with pets, it's going to cost you $250 PER PET security deposit, ALONG WITH 2 security deposits up front (at the cost of a months rent per).

I'm glad to be driven off right up front, and not have to deal with possible stressors that come with accepting terms with this company. Good riddance.
