DO NOT RENT FROM SLATE…read more I lived there for one year and had a horrible experience. It started bad right from the start. They were impossible to reach and when you did reach anyone they would not have the answers and said they would need to get back to you but never did. Throughout my stay, my roommates and I had multiple issues. Some were fixed with but the big / costly ones were ignored. I warned Slate that I saw a leak starting on my bedroom ceiling in October. It was ignored until I called and called about it. The little leak blew up into a full blown issue. Slate never appropriately addressed the issue and kept trying to do cheap fixes instead of solving the issue. I had a leak & hole in my ceiling from October-January. There were periods where they were ignoring my calls and emails. I ended up getting a rent credit because I fought so hard and had put rent in escrow. Also the issue was never truly fixed as the girl in the apartment below me started having leaking due to the quick fix they did for mine. George is a smooth talker but do not let that fool you. He is like a politician. He may genuinely be a nice guy (although I don't think he is) but he definitely is a HORRIBLE landlord and business owner. He did not even have a valid rental license for my apartment when he rented to me. The city of Philadelphia contacted me and issued him warnings and fines. And no we did not get the security deposit back. They actually said we owed them money that they would not be pursuing. Ha! Save yourself the time, stress, and money and stay as far away from Slate as you can.

I used this agency to rent a house and have been very disappointed by them. Before I moved in I…read morewas told some things would be fixed and they never were.

NOTE: They are not Kershaw Esposito anymore, Esposito left. My friend and I used them to manage our Manayunk property for almost four years. The first year and a half was great - more due to the fact that they lucked into a set of great tenants and during that period, nothing went wrong with the house. After that, things started to go wrong. Our second set of renters had the police called on them multiple times, causing problems with neighbors and worse. Apparently these incidents were brought to Kershaw 's company - who didn't inform us until the police started calling us as the owners of record. Not good. And it only gets worse. After ending the relationship with these tenants, Kershaw's agent started showing the place. It wasn't until I returned to Philadelphia that I learned they were SHOWING THE PROPERTY WITH THE POWER CUT OFF, FISTHOLES IN THE WALL AND FILTH COVERING THE FLOORS. The agent didn't bother to inform us of any of us and the place sat empty until I visited it by chance. Kershaw himself assigned us a different agent. Who helped us clean the place and get it show-able again. A few months rent lost - but we eventually found renters, but this new agent was standoffish with us every time we asked for an update, pictures or other details about the property. Eventually this relationship became too strained and Mike Kershaw took over the management himself. Things were great for the first month - he helped us get new carpets installed and, supposedly get the place presentable. But three months later there was little activity and we finally switched to a new company. The new managers informed us that the place was still filthy (Kershaw's cleaners didn't do a good job), the bathroom door was missing a doorknob, several lightbulbs were out, the stairs to the basement were rickety and some slats were broken and a whole host of other problems. In fact, Kershaw had informed us that they had removed some old furniture left in the place, but it was all still there. It took the new manager over a week to track down Kershaw and get the keys for the place. If my co-owner and I still lived in the Philadelphia area, we'd be taking them to court for their gross mismanagement and breaches of contract. But alas, suing them would be too inconvenient for us and they will slide by with nothing but a negative Yelp review.

We couldn't have asked for a better realtor than Caitlin to help with my daughter's move to Philly…read more Even though we ultimately found an apartment that wasn't one of her own listings, she had already gone well beyond the typical scope of the job -- for every place she showed us, she took the time to research the surrounding neighborhood so we could tell whether it was a safe, good fit for my daughter to live. Moving to a new city with no real local knowledge is stressful, and we only had a few secondhand suggestions from friends to go on. She filled that gap for every option she recommended, giving us honest, specific feedback about the different neighborhoods so we could make an informed decision instead of just guessing.
