He not only performed a full home inspection, but also did a mold air and surface test, a radon test, a sewer scope inspection, and a pest inspection. Immediately after his inspection, he clearly explains all of his findings and follows up with a thorough report the following day complete with photos. David is definitely the best in his field, and we would highly recommend using his services. Martha and Roger Norman

We had the inspection, bug test and radon included in the package. While the news wasn't the best, he did break it to us in a very professional manner. His equipment is top notch and gave us an extremely detailed and crystal clear photos from both his ipad and robot. The price was on point with every other inspection I have had in the past. The report was emailed with the write up and the photos. Highly recommend.

Eric walked us through the entire house, explaining everything clearly and directly as he went. As a result of his detailed survey of our roof, we were able to get the seller to replace it without additional charges! Eric is extremely knowledgeable about building materials, electrical, sewer, plumbing, and he knows the area very well. Above all, I really respected his honesty and care for his customers. I feel very confident that we now know our property inside and out as a result of Eric's inspection, which has made the whole processing of buying a home that much easier. I would recommend him highly to anyone!

Ok, Home Rentals does not deserve a 5 stars by any means. But in sum, you get what you pay for. I…read morelived in a two bedroom house with plenty of storage area for $400 a month. All of their properties are inexpensive. Sure, the floors were crooked, there wasn't central AC, and many parts of the construction itself were questionable. However, the place was livable and, with a little effort, felt like a home. As for their customer service, it could be better. They always picked up the phone when I called and did their best to answer my questions, though. When our stove went out, we had a replacement within a few days and a brand new one at that. My only complaint is that because they manage so many properties, they won't remember why you called or your problems the next day. I also am not happy with the fact that they don't have an emergency number anywhere on their website (I personally never used it). Remember that many people only leave reviews when they have a bad experience. Home Rentals rents to hundreds of Carbondale students and residents, and only a fraction are on here leaving a review. I'd recommend Home Rentals to a fellow student with a small budget, mediocre expectations in housing, and one that isn't too high maintenance.

I've been on assignment in Southern Illinois for the past two years and it looks like I'll be here…read morefor one more year before heading back home to the Pacific Northwest. About half a dozen times, I've called Walker Rentals about listings I thought would be quieter than my current rental. I politely leave my contact information and even let them know I can call them at a time that works for them. Not once in two years has anyone from this rental company EVER gotten back to me. They don't answer their business line regardless the time of day you call. And they don't return messages. I know everyone's under stress dealing with corona, but this behavior precedes the pandemic. The housing stock in Southern Illinois is poor--old, shabby, decaying, and noisy (MANY train lines everywhere, meaning constant train horns even in the middle of the night). But there's a state university here, so landlords rent out horrible units knowing renters locally have no choice but to rent anyhow. To be fair, Walker isn't the only management company that behaves this way. We've rented from a private landlord and another management company. Both turned out to be slum lords, refusing to address even health/safety issues they're legally obliged to address. But a lesson we've learned is--if the management company can't even be bothered to return MULTIPLE contact attempts (via phone or email), then they don't care about providing quality service. They know someone will HAVE TO rent their sub-par units so do the minimum work to get them rented. Don't even think about trying to get help if something goes wrong while you're renting. Shame on companies like Walker that can't even be bothered to extend the courtesy of a quick email or phone call related to the rental ads they CHOOSE to publish. My advice: if you can't afford to buy a property locally and share housing expenses with classmates..., consider moving elsewhere, if you can.

The utility room floor is still untouched, and getting worse. We've been trying to get them to fix everything and they are refusing. They even tried to deny working on the house at first because we paid cash. This has been going on for over a year now. We have the IL Attorney General involved, but Woods still has yet to rectify anything. We are expecting Woods to do the right thing especially with such a big motto to live up to and apparently with all this money they have to spend on paying people for good ratings; how about just do the right thing and earn the good rating like a good company does. Do the right thing Woods and fix our home so we don't have to go any further in this case. We know you can and we appreciate that.
