Agree with the other reviews here. I've been a property owner in Birmingham for the past year and…read moreduring this time I've had the worst experience with Evernest (formerly GK houses). Things you should know: 1. They do not provide detailed receipts for maintenance jobs. I have this documented from the director of operations, Amy Bromberg. There is a complete lack of transparency and as an owner I have no idea if I've been upcharged on the latest repair on my home. 2. Their property managers are really terrible both in terms of communication and reliability. I had Danielle Prock and she took forever to get back to me and made many mistakes and so they changed me to Jameson Gann who then also failed to return my calls and emails -- often waiting up to one week. I had to do their jobs for them. I would find errors in my financial statements and make them aware of them. My property manager had no idea my tenant switched to Section 8 tenancy, he stumbled upon it when I asked him to look into another issue. 3. Their maintenance jobs are sub-standard. My water heater leaked and there was floor damage. The repairman told me on the phone that he literally "guessed" as to where there was damage. He did not use a moisture detector, he did not even know what that was! 4. I had a home owners insurance check disbursed to me that needed co-signature by Evernest as we were both listed as the payees. They had NO idea how to co-sign it, or what the procedure was. It was like the first time they had ever dealt with that for an owner. It has been two months and I still have not been able to deposit the check because they don't know how to co-sign it. I got on a call with their director of operations and my property manager and they apologized for all the inconvenience. They said they would do better and that if they don't within one month, it's reasonable that I leave them for another company. Within 10 days they once again failed to deliver on their promises and couldn't even inform me on the status of my check in due time. What a joke. Good riddance and goodbye Evernest!

Rudy and his family not only assisted us in becoming tenants in a beautiful home but checked on us, invited us out to become acclimated to Alabama and we're very down to earth and warm.

We were let out of our lease graciously. They're real people with stuff like everyone but it makes me want to rent front them again if we were to ever move back to Alabama. We love the Rudolph family and appreciate them.

I am writing this review after experiencing repeated, severe issues with Decas Group's…read morecommunication, financial reporting, and disbursement of owner draws over a multi-year period. 1. Severe Communication & Revenue Failures: In late 2024, Section 8 rental payments stopped on my property due to a failed inspection. Decas Group failed to inform me that payments had ceased or that the property had failed an inspection until months later after the re-inspection had already occurred. I was given zero opportunity to address or remedy the issue, directly putting months of rental income at risk without my knowledge. 2. Constant Delays in Owner Draws & Statements: This is not a one-off issue--it is a recurring pattern. In December 2025, June 2026, and again in July/August 2026, I had to repeatedly chase down my owner draws and basic monthly financial statements. Every time payout is delayed, excuses range from software transitions to banking mergers, while clients are left without updates or funds unless they constantly follow up. As an owner, basic fiduciary duties require timely accounting, prompt remittance of funds, and immediate notification when rental income is disrupted. Decas Group has consistently failed to deliver on these basic standards. I would strongly advise property owners to look elsewhere for management.

I traveled from out of state to view the property based on their information. When I saw the roof I did not believe it was ever replaced. The agent from LAH produced a receipt showing the roof was replaced. The receipt did not have a date on it and I wanted to know when the roof was replaced, so I called the roofer listed on the receipt and discovered that the receipt provided was only a proposal for a new roof and the roof was never replaced. The proposal for roof was $15K. If I had followed through with the purchase I would have considered it a $15K fraud. Buyer be ware.

Warning. Our…read moreexperience raised serious concerns about how accounts are handled and how homeowners are treated when they ask for clarification. We were told by Tera to pay disputed charges before our account would even be reviewed, despite not finding any support for that requirement in the governing documents. The Association's own collection policy outlines a clear notice process before escalation. In our case, those notices were not received, yet the situation was still pushed forward and Tara refused to assist unless we complied with requirements (paying a made up admin fee and disputed fees) not outlined in the governing documents. Whether this is coming from management or the Board, that level of pressure is unprofessional and concerning. We reached out to the only other contact provided, the Birmingham office. Micah initially reassured us that she understood our concerns and agreed there were issues after reviewing our account. She told us not to worry and that she was "on our side." However, when we followed up, communication changed and we were redirected back to Tara. After continued effort to speak with absolutely anyone else, she agreed to escalate the issue but could not provide any timeline. It has now been a month with no response. It should not be this difficult to get a straightforward review of an account or clear answers to simple questions. When policies are enforced on homeowners but not consistently followed in return, it undermines trust and creates unnecessary conflict. At minimum, homeowners should expect accurate accounting, transparency, and consistent application of the rules. Instead, we experienced payments being applied in a way that continued to generate fees, repeated attempts to get answers that went nowhere, and a VERY clear lack of willingness to address the issue before demanding more money. I would not recommend this company to anyone.
