And then retaliate charging for normal wear and tear of a house falling apart. We have pictures too. Shameful No damage was done on the property, as stated on the invoice this is normal wear and tear. Also this is a two unit property shared garage cans. With another tenant who also used the garbage cans, where we even helped our senior lower unit tenant dump her garbage the day we moved out, And when we moved in the cans were full and we had to request it to be removed. We have emails showing the cans were full and removed with rental company. Returning property as it was found, no damage done to the property. Normal wear and tear on the invoice and some are not even real. Duck tape so rodents don't go in the house.. wear and tear! And all health issues gone since moving out Security deposit can not be deducted for no damage and just wear and tear, as seen on invoice to the property. The towel bar was like 40 years old!

Their level of care, communication, and thoroughness truly made us feel like we were their only clients.

Their approach allowed us to stay updated without feeling like we had to manage or track every little detail ourselves. As full-time working parents with three young kids, that level of support and effective communication made a huge difference for us. We always felt supported, informed, and confident that things were being handled thoroughly behind the scenes.
