We've had REAL Star managing multiple properties for us over the last year and a half. It was very…read morechallenging finding a property manager to manage our properties because there weren't really great reviews in the Temple/Belton area and we didn't know who we could trust. We didn't want tenants having issues with non responsiveness and we didn't want mismanaged properties. We feel that REAL Star has been fair to both our tenants and us as property owners. We literally don't have a single complaint. They ALWAYS respond promptly and do so with a pleasant demeanor. To expedite repairs for our tenants we have designated a set dollar amount for repairs. If any repairs arose that are below that amount they take care of the issue promptly and email us to notify us (no approval needed). If it's above the designated dollar amount they notify us regarding the needed repair for approval. We receive monthly statements regarding all activity pertaining to our properties. This property management company is worth every single penny. I can't recommend them enough.

Two thumbs down. Don't even consider real Star property Management. Upon move out they will find a…read morereason to not refund your deposit and they will also find a way to bill you even more. Crooked and deceitful management. Actually, in my opinion, plain old thieves. Steer clear.

My wife and I moved from Tennessee and looked at a number of options, considering both purchasing…read moreand/or leasing a place to live. We had lived in our home in Tennessee for 38 years and had only lived in Tennessee all of our 57 years of marriage. All of that to say, it was a very difficult decision...a lot of emotions and indecision. Kirstie Rubio and the office staff at Spradley Properties were incredibly patient and accommodating to us...so very helpful and kind. We ended up selecting The Preserve at Nolan Creek over numerous other considerations. We have been in Belton at The Preserve for nearly two months now...and have loved and enjoyed our new home beyond description. We are near the campus of UMHB, and the students we have met who live in our apartment community at The Preserve have been kind, considerate, fun, and welcoming! One of Spradley's maintenance men (I think his name was Bart...) came out within our first few days to take care of a minor issue...and of his own initiative, addressed a couple of other small areas of his own finding. He was competent and caring, a joy to meet...like the girls at the office who had worked with us. It has been a wonderful experience working with people who have been professional, but warm and kind-hearted. Are you looking for a place to move? Start by contacting Spradley Properties!

They allowed me to move into a unit that had electricity meters switched with my neighbor I was paying his bill for almost a year before his DV situation got so bad he stopped paying electricity so my unit was left in the dark then I was left having to figure out the issue on a workday when I work from home. 0 compensation or accountability from management but they let me know they were aware as I wasn't the first or the last with this problem yet they did nothing to actively fix it. I was informed I could have reported these management people to board of realtors to get their licenses revoked but chose not to. They are the most unhelpful but problematic people. They come into your house 4 times a year to photograph everything and will charge you if they have to reschedule yet their maintenance never shows up but they don't care if you made arrangements to be there. Their quarterly inspector left my lights on while I was on vacation for 10 days, I should've sent them an invoice as they charge tenants for every thing imaginable. My lease was up in May but their management shares a brain cell & never closed our account as part of their policies so they took rent for June, I had to contact them for them to correct it and send me a check in the mail weeks later. Move out also came with 0 instructions but they charged me almost $500 for fees upon leaving with zero discussion, even charging for a light bulb while not sending proof of anything, they just sent me the difference from my security deposit to my forwarding address. I am aware management is already low caliber people but these guys operate from hell. So happy to never deal with these people ever again and this is coming from someone that never had to talk with them outside of the DV next door & always paid rent.

We really appreciate Morris' speedy response to any maintenance requests. Always Great service!read more

From day one, Laura took the time to truly get to know us as people. She listened carefully to what we liked and didn't like, understood our goals, and took the time to learn what was most important to us in finding the right home. She didn't just help us search for houses... she became a trusted advocate who genuinely championed our interests every step of the way. Laura went above and beyond in ways we never expected. Every property we considered was thoroughly vetted, not only for its features and condition, but also for potential issues that could affect us down the road. Whether it was physical concerns with the property, deed restrictions, HOA requirements, or anything else that might impact our future enjoyment of the home, Laura dug deep and made sure we had the information we needed to make confident decisions. What impressed us most was the level of care she brought to the process. She evaluated each home as if her own family were purchasing it. We never felt pressured. We never felt rushed. We always felt protected, informed, and supported. Buying a home can be stressful, but Laura made the experience as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. Her professionalism, attention to detail, knowledge, and genuine care for her clients set her apart. She isn't simply selling homes... she's helping people create the next chapter of their lives. We are incredibly grateful for everything Laura did for us and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. If you want someone who will truly have your best interests at heart, Laura Tomaszewski is the person you want by your side. Thank you, Laura, for helping us find not just a house, but a place we are excited to call home.
