After reading the reviews, I noticed most of the high ratings come from owners. That might explain…read morethe difference in experience, because as a tenant this company was difficult to deal with. Email communication often felt passive aggressive and any time I asked a simple question, I got long policy explanations instead of a real answer. I had to follow up several times just to try to renew my lease and kept getting the runaround. I eventually moved because paying rent on time should not come with that much hassle or uncertainty. I rarely needed maintenance since I handled most things myself. Getting my security deposit back took far too long and every time I asked about it, I got more excuses. They charged a 250 application fee, a 25 per person monthly service fee on top of rent, and even offered a 95 option to fast track the return of my own security deposit. On top of that, they offered to charge 495 for move out cleaning. No thanks I can do that myself. I've never ever not gotten back a security deposit. I'm not that person. Everything felt transactional and unnecessary, which honestly pushed me toward leaving. Right before my lease ended, I sent notice that I was moving. Even then, I got what felt like an automated message telling me my renters insurance needed to be confirmed for the next year. I replied saying I was moving out in a few days and still had insurance, and the response I got back basically told me to send proof or be charged 10 dollars. I am not letting anyone nickel and dime me over things like that. 10 dollars. Please quit the shit. Owners may have a smoother experience, but tenants deal with a very different side of things. Best of luck if you decide to rent from them. I will not be using them again. As a property owner and a renter, this definitely isn't the way people should be treated ever. I only have 2 stars because after 30 plus days I got my deposit back. Minus a f*+^€n 5.00 e-check fee. Yall needed that I guess.

Goldnest property management is the absolute best. This is not a small property management group…read morewith a couple employees and a few properties. They are a large organization with a beautiful office in Dallas, fully staffed 24/7 with service professionals that handle every aspect of property management. These guys have tons of properties and they have years and years of experience. They have seen it all and they are more than prepared to handle it all. As a real estate investor living in California with an Air BnB in the DFW area, I am completely hands off. I think of property management in two different categories. 1) Managing the online presence, the rentals and keeping vacancies to a minimum and 2) Managing the house itself. When it comes to the management of the house, I feel like they are taking care of the house as if it were their own. Every aspect of home care is covered from the landscaping to the pool to the appliances and every working piece and part inside the house. All repairs and maintenance is handled by professionals who specialize in the trade and handled immediately. And the house is beyond clean at all times. They also have some cool technology that allows them to monitor the home while not interfering with the privacy of the guests, so the risk of something inappropriate, or worse happening is taken out of the equation. As an investment, under the care of Goldnest, the home gets better all the time and the value of the home continues to grow. As for the rest, and the rest is a lot... Goldnest is extremely impressive. They handle the pictures, the write ups and marketing that goes on all the sites. Goldnest has access to all the sites that matter and they have a young fresh vibe in the way they write up your home and present it on each site. From the minute the guest comes in contact with your home, they are entertained and engaged. Maybe this is why in the "slow season" the house seems to be continuously rented. I don't know how they do it, but they keep vacancies to an absolute minimum. Last, these guys are great at the "Tech". part They have an "owners portal" that makes it so easy as an owner. You can see a calendar of all the rentals and you can see the daily rates for each day. They use a dynamic pricing system that maximizes profits. They have a finance page that breaks down every expense and everything is very transparent. You see what's coming in, all the expenses and have a clear understanding of exactly what you are going to make every month. There are also year to date totals and lots of data and analytics so you can analyze your home's performance in any number of ways. These guys are smart. Very smart. I will say that when I started doing this, I tried to save money by going with a smaller management team. That was a huge mistake. What I was saving in management fees I was more than losing in so many other ways. I now spend a little more to have professional property in Goldnest, and as a result, I am making WAY more than I ever have and more than I even thought was possible. And my home is being maintained to a standard that is higher than I would have if I were living in it. If you are looking for a professional organization that is going to take great care of your home and make you lots of money, your search is over. Goldnest is simply the best.

The service requested, quality, and value truly went above and beyond. From the start, Courtney took the time to understand my budget and exactly what I was looking for, and she delivered BIG by helping me find the perfect high-rise apartment. She was professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure I found the right place. The entire process was smooth, stress-free, and actually exciting because of how much care and effort she put into every step. Smart City is a fantastic company to work with, and Courtney is a total standout! And let me just say the services they offer once you find the right spot? Let's just call that a very nice surprise you'll have to experience for yourself once you get locked in with this company! Definitely worth it.

We lived there for a total of 3 months I was placed on FMLA with no financials due to my mothers health decline with dementia. She was on home hospice care. We depended at that point on my mother's pension to pay rent. When asking for a couple of days as a grace period to pay the rent which was literally 7 days as my mothers pension came in the second weds of the month this company said no we need to treat everyone equally. By that Tuesday they had filed in the court for eviction adding $500 more to the roster leaving me with a penalty of over $1,200. When reaching out again for help they said no they wanted the entire rent with penalties to stop eviction we had to move out. I had to send my mother to a nursing home yanking her from our side which is only three of us here in Texas my Mother, Son and myself. I had to do estate sales of all my mothers and family's possessions which then in turn move to a one bedroom leaving behind what I had as I had no where to go or store my families belongings. This company ruined me by simply giving me 7 days this could have been avoided. Oh side note they added at the end damages to roof shingles and the roof (in 3 months! Which was added on the move in) There is a special place for companies and its employees that have absolutely no compassion. As my mother has now passed my son and I are starting our new life but I will always remember this experience for the rest of my life. Hopefully in the future they will show a bit more compassion to their tenants as we are humans not just numbers in the books for their clients.

Every…read moretime I've spoken with him, it seems there is little understanding of the status of our maintenance requests. For example, the company has stated they have a tracking number for the part needed to repair our AC, yet no one can tell us where it is or provide a realistic timeline for when the repair will be completed. Communication has been consistently poor. Calls often go unanswered, and when someone does respond, it feels like no one has the information needed to actually help. As a tenant, it is incredibly frustrating to repeatedly explain the same issues without receiving clear answers or meaningful updates. What has been most disappointing is the lack of empathy. We have been dealing with property damage, concerns about the condition of the home, and the discomfort of living without air conditioning for an extended period. While window units were eventually provided, they have not adequately cooled the home and have instead made the rooms feel even more humid. Throughout this experience, it has felt as though collecting rent is treated as a higher priority than fulfilling the landlord's responsibility to provide a safe, habitable, and properly maintained home. This has been, without question, the worst experience I have had with a property management company or landlord.
