Bragg on Ward Ave. Communication with Sharon was always clear and very responsive. The house was very well furnished and had everything we needed right down to the charging stations by the bed and night lights in the bedroom. I especially enjoyed the local artwork throughout the home. The house was meticulously clean when we arrived and we received our full deposit back after cleaning the house ourselves thoroughly and following the Property Mgt directions to make sure the house was cleaned properly. Overall, we had a very professional experience with this property Management company and would highly recommend working with them.

The place was filthy, insect and rodent infested with 'furnishings' from the 70's. I worked through these issues in the first 2 years, cleaned the place up and made it habitable. I paid for a gardener because the once lovely gardens were totally neglected. The owners want nothing to do with the tenants and allow blatant disrespect from the agency as the agency allows blatant disrespect from the owners. Tenants are simply a number to them without regard to how well you care for the property or pay rent on time automatically. In the end, I exceeded the contractual agreement to have the carpet professionally cleaned, all windows and woodwork clean, holes from television mounting patched, professionally cleaned by a service, the place was cleaner than it had been in 20 years. Regardless, they deducted $20 for a maid to 'check' the unit, and $110 for someone to paint an 8x8 wall. No respect for a dependable, responsible, long-term tenant. DO NOT GIVE THEM A LARGE DEPOSIT BECAUSE THEY WILL KEEP AS MUCH OF IT AS THEY CAN!

By far the worse place ever to try to rent from. I should have listened to my friends and coworkers…read morebut I wanted to give Mendo reality the Benefit of the doubt. My boyfriend and I put in our applications, got accepted through Mendo reality and asked to apply for a house on Lorraine road in Ukiah going for $1635 a month. We waited and waited and waited for a call back. A week and half went by, no phone call. So we called them and Katie, the gal at the front desk had told us that she was meaning to call us and get back to us but she FORGOT but was happy to inform us that our applications did get accepted and she is just waiting to hear back from her manager to sign a few papers off. Her manager was busy that day going over inspections on other properties. So another week goes by, and I get a phone call from Katie stating that we didn't get approved because the owners decided to go with someone else. That was understandable so I told her thank you and left it at that. A couple weeks go by and I see that the house is still on the market. So I question and Katie then says, "oh the owners have decided to sell it so it should be off our website by weds 4.5.17" We kind of start questioning ourselves and my boyfriend decides he wants to try again for another place on sherry drive that was going for $1895 a month. We wait and wait and they finally call us back and Katie says that we were just shy $250 for qualifying for that house. I didn't get upset because that house was fairly expensive for what they were asking for anyway. I noticed that the house on Lorraine was still on the market and was again questioning to myself as to what was really going on with that house. So we decided to go with another house. Katie then said the house we wanted to apply for house on Jackson that was going for $1400 was also owned by the same people who own Lorraine. So I doubt you will get it says Katie. By then I was confused because If we got denied because "somebody" else got the house on Lorraine, why would we be automatically denied for a house that was $235 less then what we first wanted? And if your telling us that we were only $250 shy of getting the house on sherry that $1895, why should we be threatened of getting denied for something that is $1400? By this time we are upset and begin to ask questions. Katie's next excuse was that we had to be married to combine our income together that is why we are having a hard time getting a place. At this point in time I'm thinking Katie doesn't know how to do her job so we pull in the manager because Katie isn't advanced enough to explain in a professional matter how their system works. So I told the manager everything that she's been telling me and Katie is behind her denying everything she's been telling my boyfriend and I. I laughed and said this is just ridiculous I would my like my papers back. I'm a registered dental assistant, my boyfriend owns his own shop. We are expecting another child in the fall. We pay our rent on time we are clean and very organized people. We have great references. There should be nothing wrong with us finding a place together through a rental company. Clearly the income is there but Mendo reality has told us lie after lie after lie and it's made it very difficult for us to get a place. And Katie who works in the front clearly needs to go back to school to study about property management because she has made it very difficult and has been ALL over the map with us with just bullshit lies. She said she's going to call you back and then never calls. You have to end up calling them. They are just so unorganized there and it just goes to show how much they are disliked because I wasn't hearing anything good about them in the first place. I should have listened to my coworkers, my DOCTORS that I work for. I should have listened to my PROFESSIONAL coworkers. Mendo reality is a joke and I feel very sorry for them that they hired such a unworthy uneducated young women "Katie" to work the front desk. She's awful at explaining things and I feel sorry for whomever goes in there and has a hard time with trying to simply get a place there. Never again will I go through Mendo Reality. As my coworkers say VERY UNPROFESSIONALISM and a waste of time.

Was blindsided today picking up my security deposit refund. I was told by the property manager on…read moretwo different move out inspections that everything looked great and the only deduction I should expect was for the carpet cleaning I agreed to pay in my lease. I had continued to check in with Mendo Realty over the 21 day refund period in an attempt to ensure everything was a smooth transition and was told again, multiple times by Katie in the office that everything looks great and that I'd only be paying for the carpet cleaning. My roommate and I hired a professional cleaning company to go above and beyond what we could do ourselves. Not only that, but we tried to go above our responsibility and improve the property from how it was handed over to us by patching all of the wall holes from the owner of the property who was in the home immediately prior to us, as well as building a workable shop space in the garage, all with approval given by the property manager upon move out inspection. Talking to the property manager Marcia in person was absolutely no help. Requesting to make an appointment to discuss my objections in detail with my documentation was turned down, being told that she would not discuss in person and that all of my concerns must be made in writing. The worst part is their property manager (my landlord of 2.5 years) quit 4 days before I handed over the keys and Mendo Realty wouldn't stand by her statements, verbal and written, when presented to them. Being Ukiah, this is one of two games in town so you may be forced to choose to rent from them. A coworker of mine also rented from Mendo Realty and had a similar experience, with $1600 held for carpet cleaning and back rent because the tenant they had secured to take over a lease fell through for a month longer than he had stated. I get the feeling that they are used to people rolling over and not challenging the company when they are wronged. Honestly, for $500, small claims court would likely be more expensive and time consuming than its worth. We'll see how I'm feeling tomorrow once I've had time to weigh the pros and cons of holding them accountable for theft. My advice: Stay away.

The home we rented (for over $400 per night, plus a $200 non-refundable cleaning deposit) was the "Urban Escape" on Sea Ranch. The property itself was in need of some repairs and upgrades: the hot water tank gave out the first night. The rental agency contact did get a plumber out to us, but I had got the pilot to stay lit while he was there, and he left with the wrong diagnosis (improper ventilation). After repeated re-lightings, the pilot would not stay on. We gave up on it. Also, the built-in microwave was kaput, and the original oven controls were missing. A replacement microwave was set on a counter. One day into the stay, a cabinet door to the kitchen sink area fell off. The fill cycle in the master bath toilet would not shut off without jiggling the handle. Coasting Home should have known of the issues with this home, and should not have listed it. Answer? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
