The fireplace at Bear's Lair

Fifth time renting from them in three years and it was always good but this time they really messed up at first. We arrived at the cabin and it had obviously not been cleaned yet. Muddy dog prints on the floor, wet sheets in the dryer and dirty blankets on the beds plus the hot tub was broken. We called and they informed us that there had been a scheduling mistake and that they did not have any rentals available that met our specs (amount of bedrooms, bathrooms, hot tub, pet friendly etc.) to replace the rental that we had reserved. Mountain Top quickly redeemed themselves by securing us a cabin from Best of Canaan (one of the competing agencies) and covering any up charges.

Currently staying at the Creekside Village Resort in Basye, VA. Check-in process was cool even…read morethough we arrived late at night (midnight). They place the keys in a VERY secure lockbox in an envelope with your name on it. You need a passcode to get into it, so it's not easy to break into. The drive to the resort was terrifying in the middle of the night, though, I will say. However, the unit itself was pretty cozy & I liked that it felt more homey than most modern & newer resorts trying hard to be fancy. It goes to show that you don't need a ton of expensive things to have a good vacation. I only docked a star because there were some things they didn't provide for a unit that's basically a 2-bedroom apartment: a dish rack, a vacuum (the place is fully carpeted), & steady internet service. The internet here is kinda spotty & keeps disconnecting every few minutes. I get that it's the mountains, but I also live in the mountains & it's not this bad. One of the locks on the screen door for the back balcony is also broken, which kinda sucks. Other than those minor things, it's a pretty good place to go for vacation & to get away from the world & be in nature. Lots of nature attractions all around. Pool is closed during COVID, tho, so don't get your hopes up.

I see a whole bunch of one star reviews, mostly focused on the issue of the security deposit. I've…read morelived in a Bel-Cross Property for not even two months, and have an 18 month lease, so that won't be my concern at this point. All I can say is I love the property I now call home. It's a 1904 4 bedroom 2 bath house with a basement, attic and double size yard. I have more deer for neighbors than humans and live less than a mile from downtown Morgantown. I moved in right before the sub zero cold snap. The house was cold and the gas boiler system couldn't adequately heat the house, but maintenance showed up with two space heaters I used for the unusually cold days. It go so bad I even had a water pipe burst, and maintenance was there in an amazing 20 minutes. I recently had a minor gas leak from my stove. Again, within half an hour I got help and everything is good as can be. So yes, it's an older home with some of the inconveniences and issues that arise...but Bel-Cross also compensates for that with on the spot maintenance. Previous to this home, I lived in a Morgantown three bedroom apartment that was supposed to be smoke free. I was probably the only non smoker in the building. I had to drive to the laundry room (and pay for every load), drive to get the mail, and walk quite a way to the garbage...up and down very icy shaky wooden stairs. So now I have a much bigger house, with my own washer and dryer. Mail is delivered right beside my front door, and garbage and recycling is at the curb. I also have three large off street gravel parking spaces to use that I share with no one else. And the rent of this house is $79 less a month than the awful apartment complex I lived in! So five stars so far, and I'm just not worried about the security deposit at this point. What's more important is does the property management firm properly manage the property?

Yes, the reviews are true! If you can rent from someone else, I would. They took my entire security…read moredeposit to fix all of the stuff that should have been fixed BEFORE I moved in.

The 90 year old home was completely stripped down to the studs and renovated by Pittsburgh Property Guy. After living in the house for nearly a year, I can attest to the very high level of quality and craftsmanship that he put into this home. The home inspector even commented to me prior to purchasing that he's seen a lot of renovated homes, and this one was clearly done right. He used high end finishes like Brazilian Cherry floors, granite kitchen counters, and marble in the master bathroom. He also took the time to have the brick cleaned on the outside of the house, exposed and restored original woodwork, vaulted the 3rd floor to create even more livable space. Everywhere you look, you can see that time and thought was put into the final product. It's been so nice having friends and family comment on the beauty and quality of the renovation too! Aside from the quality craftsmanship, Pittsburgh Property Guy himself provided top notch customer service to me when I had questions or minor issues that I encountered. He worked with me directly via phone and email, and was always very quick to respond. It was clear that my happiness as his customer was important to him, and that's not something that should be overlooked! If you're thinking about buying one of his properties, you're in safe hands.

The property needed lots of repair work and the cost of maintaining it was piling up. I reached out to a few investors in the area regarding selling the property and was extremely grateful that I connected with Nick from the Pittsburgh Property Guy Team. When I spoke to Nick, I immediately felt comfortable. He was very professional, knowledgeable and friendly and offered solutions. Thanks to him, the entire process was smooth, quick and easy. He kept me updated every step of the way from the time they made an offer to close. It was a pleasure doing business with the Pittsburgh Property Guy Team and we highly recommend their services to anyone.

Although this company has many apartments in convenient locations, I would strongly recommend…read morethinking twice before applying. In my experience, once you submit the application and pay the required fees and security deposit, you have very little flexibility if you change your mind. I was told that the security deposit would not be refunded if I decided to withdraw the application. This can be a significant concern if you are still unsure whether the apartment is truly the right fit for you. My advice: be absolutely certain before submitting an application or paying a security deposit. If you have any personal or family circumstances that could potentially change your plans, or if you are not completely satisfied with the apartment, make sure you fully understand their refund and cancellation policies beforehand. Unfortunately, I also found the level of professionalism and helpfulness to be very disappointing after the application was submitted. The experience before applying was very different from the experience afterward. In my case, the customer service became extremely frustrating once I was already committed to the application. Another major concern is the true cost of living in these apartments. The monthly rent may initially appear reasonable, but the actual cost can be significantly higher once utilities and additional charges are included. Everything, including heating and the stove, is powered by electricity. During the winter, the electric bill can be shockingly high, making the apartment much more expensive than the advertised rent might suggest. There were also additional charges that I did not fully anticipate when initially considering the apartment. The maintenance experience was another major disappointment. In my experience, the maintenance team was extremely inflexible and unprofessional. Be very careful about authorizing repairs, and make sure you clearly understand what work is being performed and who is responsible for the cost before anything is done. I was concerned about being charged for issues that I did not cause. These are older buildings, so maintenance issues are bound to happen from time to time. That makes responsive, transparent, and professional maintenance even more important. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. I am giving two stars primarily because the properties are located in convenient areas. However, a convenient location does not make up for poor customer service, high utility costs, unexpected charges, and a frustrating maintenance experience. If you're considering one of their apartments, do your homework before signing anything. Ask detailed questions about every fee, utility, maintenance policy, and potential charge. Carefully review the application, lease, refund, and cancellation policies before submitting an application or paying any deposit. Don't make your decision based solely on the advertised monthly rent. Make sure you understand the true monthly cost and what you could potentially be responsible for paying.

Do not rent from Lobos Management unless you want to pay exorbitant rent with additional outrageous…read morefees for a subpar living experience. I moved to Pittsburgh from another state and rented a studio apartment sight-unseen. I based this decision on the listed rent and the location of the building. The leasing agents perform shoddy service across the board. The very first one was the most obsessed with my current credit score and didn't care if I could pay a whole year's rent in advance. (I understand now this is because the monthly expenses fluctuate due to their inability to provide upfront information on the actual cost of renting.) Where to start? I have some documentation (see photos below) of the ways in which Lobos is the worst leasing company in Pittsburgh. It's a shame because they're everywhere in the city. I can recognize their rental signs, and it pains me to realize that there might not be that much choice for folks, but please weigh your options and avoid if possible. 1. Undisclosed fees, added costs - My base rent went higher than I had anticipated mostly because of the high monthly water/sewer fee. I did not pay with a credit or debit card, but that would have cost me 2.99% fee. I unfortunately paid for a laundry card since the leasing agent with whom I signed my initial paperwork pressured me into this; turns out, the washers were cash only in my building. Lobos told me that the laundry cards for non-refundable, so I lost $35. I paid $125 for offstreet parking monthly. No one else in my building used this, so I'm not quite sure why the fee was so high. The monthly water bill fluctuated month-to-month, but the photo below shows an "average." 2. No quiet enjoyment - If you're looking for a place that allows you to rent and enjoy peace and quiet, Lobos is not it. They will announce spot checks out of the blue (called "inspections") where it feels like a college dorm R.A. looking at everything you own. The first one said that I needed to wipe down my stovetop. It was very clean already which signaled to me that you need to have your apartment spotless to the point of what most landlords expect when you move out. If you're busy or not home very often, you feel like you have drill sergeant inspecting your bunk when it's time for them to breeze through and critique. I gave my notice of nonrenewal on my lease since they were raising the rent by $30. They ask for renewals SIX MONTHS prior to the end of the lease. Lobos immediately came in to take a video of the apartment and start making showing appointments. Showing appointments were made the day before and canceled the day of occasionally. There were constant requests to show my unit with the vague request to have it ready between 10:30am - 5:30pm. 3. Lousy maintenance - Your mileage may vary, but I had a leak in my unit from the closet. I photographed it and added to the Resident Portal. You will get constant texts from Lobos asking you to report leaks because water leaks account for higher water bills! I reported this on a Sunday, and Friday morning before 9am, I got a knock on my door. Friday was my only day off from work, and I couldn't believe that they delayed coming for so long. They had all week! The carpeting on my floor was wet but had dried by the time they showed up. Upon my move-out, I did notice lumpy/bumpy parts in the wall that looked like old water damage. That's how they deal with this issue. Last thing I'll mention is that my in-wall heater/AC unit was very inefficient. During my first winter, the electric bill was crazy high and the unit would shut off before it provided any real heat. It wasn't broken, but just inefficient, I thought. The next summer, the unit would shut off before it cooled the room, and the bill was skyhigh. I actually removed the outer cover to find out that the unit HAD NEVER BEEN CLEANED. I got rid of the grime and dirt accumulated over G-d knows how long, and finally, it worked just fine. Cooler/warmer, lower bills. I have so many more issues, but these are the major ones. Others: smoke detector fell off the wall the day after Lobos installed it. I had at least one package stolen from near the mailboxes (found the empty box in the building's trash). Lobos advised me to file a police report. Mailboxes not secure; my key caused the whole row to open up. They installed cameras in the entryway and the laundry room without any announcement. Do those use facial recognition or not? Who knows. Front door of building constantly broken due to tenants slamming it. At one point, you could enter and leave without unlocking the door. I reported this and all they did was shove the hardware back into the door. It needed to be replaced at the very least, but I guess that would be too expensive. Last photos outline excruciating slow snow removal. They left the snow in place for so long it iced over and became harder to remove. You must pay to have your carpet cleaned before move-out (more $$$ out of YOUR pocket.)

I regrettably used PMI to manage my home while we were away for 2 years. Our contract specified a 9% management fee. After the first few months I realized that they were actually paying themselves 10% and I had to bring this to their attention. I thought it was an honest mistake and didn't think much of it. The bookkeeping 'mistakes' continued... When a tenant moved out, and they were no longer collecting rent, they continued to pay themselves the management fee from my pocket. Again, I caught this and they corrected it. When I finally terminated my relationship with PMI they required $8G to settle their account. After checking my records this did not add up so I disputed the balance. They finally admitted that it was only $2G I owed them to settle the account. They sloppily wrote a 2 year lease with a tenant. In hindsight, this document was full of errors, some specifying a 12 month duration and some a 24 month. These errors were not discovered until the tenant left unexpectedly and we had no recourse because of the inconsistencies in the contract. The most egregious mismanagement was that despite my repeated requests, and requests from the tenant, they failed to fix the air conditioner during the summer months. The tenant was fully justified to pick up and leave, considering PMIs negligence. The air conditioner went down in March. The tenant left in July. When I entered the property myself in September the air conditioner was still inoperable and PMI was trying to re-rent the property! I terminated my relationship with them, and now they are suing me for a $2G balance on the account. I lost tens of thousands of dollars due to their mismanagement and caught ~$7G in attempted overcharges. If this is your cup of tea, by all means use Mike Johnson and PMI.
