Steve and his staff were very professional and personable. I also though Steve had a great deal of knowledge and was very good at anticipating the seller's moves and what was to happen. Needless to say, we were very pleased with the price that we were able to acquire these properties at. Throughout this process I would ask Steve questions about this deal, as well as, other real estate questions and he would always take his time and explain everything out to me. So for this reason and many others, I will be using Distinctive Real Estate for my real estate needs. Thank you Steve.

Several realtors said they would help but their efforts, if any, fizzled out quickly. Not so for Dawnn Wheeler of Latter and Blum. She went above and beyond to help my husband and I sign on the dotted line even though the home we settled on renting was with a different firm. She made us feel like we were her only clients even though I know her plate was constantly full. She was always easy to reach and seemed like an old friend by the end of the process. In a years time when we are ready to buy, I know exactly who we will be calling. Thank you, Dawnn!

They have never cleaned the courtyards and there is garbage that sits for months on the property. Some of the debri from Katrina is STILL laying around the complex. They allowed the apts. to become run down almost on purpose. The complex was once filled with hard working people but they seem to not care who they allow to move in now. There are broken down cars left parked for months on the property and the new people moving in don't seem to have jobs and hang out in the parking lot at all hours. We don't feel safe with people walking through out patios at night to get to their units. I would NEVER allow them to manage any property. I can't understand why they let this great neighborhood go down. They don't seem to care even though the owner, Realtor Lisa Simms Hayles, lives in Slidell. They have put a stain on a great community and we can't warn people enough to stay away from them.

And now it is me, my boyfriend of now 15 years, & our beautiful, amazing 5 year old daughter!! We LOVE living here! It's calm & quiet even considering we are a few feet away from the interstate & less than a 1/2 mike away from the train tracks... The residents are so nice and respectful of their neighbors. It's ESPECIALLY amazing living here the last few years since Mrs. Karen (our landlord/property manager) took over. Before her there was constant issues regarding the previous (several) landlords/property managers such as them being rude & not caring about us residents to hearingbrumors of one of them stealing money somehow... But none of those issues exsist now that Mrs. Karen is watching over us. She is the sweetest, most kind hearted person you will EVER meet!! When I say she treats us like family.. I mean that 100%. She goes ABOVE & BEYOND for ALL the residents (regardless if you just moved in or if you're like us who have been here 13 years... everyone gets the same respect & live shown to them by her). I HIGHLY recommend looking into Audubon Gates Apartments if you're looking for somewhere that's safe, kid friendly, & all around just a great place to live & a great little community to be apart of!!!

TERMITES, FUNGUS, HORRIBLE STAFF. This place is an absolute nightmare. We've lived here for 7…read moremonths and have had nothing but problems. The first month we moved in we had a fungal bloom come through the drywall in our bathroom. All they did was send maintenance to cut what they could see and put spackle over the hole. There's is no telling how extensive the damage is behind our wall. In February our entire unit flooded from their washing machine malfunctioning. We called the emergency line that night and no one answered. We finally called the next morning and got through to someone. They sent out a company to use machines to remove the water from the carpet. Even though the water had reached the walls NO INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED TO ENSURE MOLD HAD NOT DEVELOPED. We alerted the management two weeks ago that we had a termite infestation in our walls when we noticed we had new pin-sized holes in our walls. The management complete wrote us off and said it was simply swarmers that got inside even though we sent them pictures of them actively crawling through the holes in the wall. They finally managed to send a pest control worker out who only treated the outer wall and told us he didn't know what he was doing, had only worked for the company for a month, and could not treat the inside which was our biggest problem. After many complaints they finally sent another pest agent out to treat the inside. All during this we continued to tell them they were still coming into our unit by our window. They finally opened the wall up to find extensive damage to the studs in our wall from the termites. We currently have an open wall in our wall with exposed rotted wood with no baseboard. At the moment 1st lake has done nothing for us even though we can not occupy our unit due to our personal safety concerns. We refuse to share our bedroom with bugs especially when they are STILL COMING IN and have an open hole in our wall now. They have not offered us another place to live and have been extremely difficult to communicate with. We have told them we simply want to move out of our unit but they do not care about their residents. At the moment they are insisting we remain in the unit while they undergo extensive structural repairs to a load bearing wall--all of which I'm sure they are doing without permit. We already spoke with a license contractor and a local building inspector that both said we should not be occupying the unit while such an extensive repair is being completed. We are pretty sure from the damage we've seen in our walls that it has spread to other units as well. This community is horrible, termite infested, uncommunicative, and fails to care about the health and safety of it's residents. DO NOT LIVE HERE!!

First of all if you're going to rent a property through this business don't do it! The lease terms in itself is to put you in a messed up situation. My family and I rented a property through her for $2500 a month. We rented for a year and in that year we could not live in over 50% of the house because of mold. I was never told that we could pay a percentage because we weren't able to use all of the house. Instead 1/31/22 after all of the construction and people going in and out of my house she said that they would not be renewing the lease and that we had to be out by 2/28/22. The week of Mardi Gras the worst time to be moving during the shortest month. She was trying to push us to buy the home. We didn't want the problems so we're building somewhere else. Gayle is very unethical and an all around f***ed up person! The stuff her and the owner put my family and I through. There's a very special place in hell for her.

She is very condescending, and struck both my wife and I as more of a life coach than a realtor. I hadn't realized that Keller Williams started hiring dual purpose real estate agents, but I assure you that we were not calling to have someone evaluate our choice in service pets. My wife informed miss Macomber that we have 2 service dogs (one for my daughter, and one for myself after getting blown up in Afghanistan). Miss Macomber took it upon herself to state her displeasure that we had 2 service dogs, and follwed that up with some apparently necessary information on how miss Macomber could get her pet hamster certified as a service animal... it seemed like she was being a little braggadocious. All-in-all I don't know that I've ever spoken to a professional, in any field, so crass and discourteous to people looking to hire her for her services.
