Maintenance is very quick to respond to requests (usually within the same day), and they fix things right the first time. And Melissa in the office is fantastic! Seriously, that lady deserves a medal for fielding what I'm sure is a ton of phone calls and emails, and still being super friendly and accommodating. They also have an online portal where you can pay rent (without surcharges!) and submit maintenance requests, which is great. My apartment is in an older building, but is clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. It's in a great neighborhood (Volker), and just a few blocks from lots of restaurants, bars, and coffee shops. And the best part -- it's not costing me an arm and a leg to live here! Anyone who's renting in KC has experienced prices sky-rocketing in recent years. After being priced out of my last apartment, I was worried I couldn't afford to live in Midtown anymore. But luckily, I discovered Ellis, who seem to actually care about their residents, instead of trying to nickel and dime them to death. I would recommend them to anyone!

I have been extremely disappointed with my experience with Ellis Real Estate, particularly with how…read morean ongoing HVAC issue in my apartment has been handled. I moved into my apartment in May and immediately noticed that the back bedroom was significantly warmer than the rest of the apartment and had little to no airflow from the central AC. Since then, I have submitted five maintenance requests and had multiple visits from maintenance and an HVAC contractor. The bedroom vent was eventually confirmed to be disconnected from the ductwork and was finally repaired in August, but the larger HVAC problem remains unresolved. Even after the vent was repaired, my AC has run continuously for more than 24 hours at times and has been unable to maintain 72 degrees in the apartment. During hot weather, the temperature has reached approximately 77-78 degrees inside, despite the system running constantly. My projected electric bill has also approached $300 for a roughly 1,200-square-foot, two-bedroom apartment. What has been most frustrating is the lack of communication and follow-through. Multiple maintenance requests were marked as completed even though the underlying problem continued. I have repeatedly contacted management, and after being told I would receive an update and repair timeline, I had to follow up again when no response came. Even after finally repairing the bedroom vent, management responded as though the HVAC issue had been resolved, despite the fact that I have repeatedly explained that the central AC itself is still unable to adequately cool the apartment. I understand that HVAC repairs can take time, especially during hot weather. What I find unacceptable is having to repeatedly ask for updates and explain that the same problem is still occurring without receiving a clear plan to address it. I have tried to be patient and work with management throughout this process, but after months of dealing with this issue, I am extremely frustrated with how it has been handled.

They qualify the renters, check their credit, make sure they make enough income, etc. When maintenance requests come in, they handle them in a forthright and efficient manner, and bill us accordingly. Things went so well with the first rental, we bought another house and used HRS. Same great results. Since then, we have bought 5 more houses, for a total of 7. HRS manages them all and makes it easy. They even prepare end of year tax statements for our accountant which makes that easy too. Our renters often ask for improvements in our houses, which we routinely provide (new stainless steel appliances, new washer/dryers, painting, etc.). This is a cost of doing business. Can't say enough about HRS, and would highly recommend them! Tom Finocchiaro

They were able to come by and replace it only a few days after I made my work order and notified them of the issue.

When I noticed the issue had escalated a few days later I gave them a call and they sent someone out immediately to help me. Phil was super nice and called me when he got my work order to let me know he would arrive in 30 minutes. 32 minutes later he arrived and looked at my system. He was able to determine the issue was with the exterior unit being dirty and the drain line being clogged. He was able to clean my unit, drain the line, clean up the standing water, and dry out my carpet in the hour he was at my house. Thank you so much Phil for your prompt service, positive attitude, and for letting me know what I can do in the future. They are a great company with great people working for them!

Voepel Property Management became the fourth property manager my husband and I fired - and for good…read morereason. We made the mistake of trusting them at our expense. We purchased an investment home through Bridge Turn Key (BTK) and Voepel, believing we were in good hands. The house passed inspection with no issues - a red flag we ignored. For the first six months, everything seemed fine, but we soon discovered BTK had installed the wrong HVAC system for the house's size. Voepel was initially responsive, helping coordinate repairs. But then, things took a turn. There was a plumbing issue that cost $3K. After owning the house for four years, the second-to-last group of tenants (a group of unrelated individuals in a 5-bedroom home) moved out, and Voepel returned their deposit immediately without inspection. Voepel then charged us a several thousand dollars for the tenant's damages and mess, including blinds chewed up by a tenant's pet parrot (despite a "no animals" lease clause), reinstalled light fixtures the tenants deinstalled, non-standard broken tile in the bathroom, etc. Next, Voepel placed one of their OWN employees as a tenant. She then submitted countless unnecessary repair requests, always just below the $300 homeowner approval limit. We were forced to scrutinize every monthly statement and decipher the improvements that had been requested. This whole relationship was a mess at our sole expense. Worst investment ever. Having managed many properties myself, I highly recommend you manage your own properties. We don't live in KC, hence why we trusted Voepel. There's a learning curve, but you'll do a better job than these so-called professionals.

Each person who took the time to post a review here has a story, of which, is valid to them and i would never presume to understand what they experienced. My experience was just fine. I rented a home for two years from them and never had one problem. I called for maintenance and they resolved problems, my entry and exit meetings with the KCHR team was pleasant and met my expectations as far as what i should expect from a management company .. And this is coming from a person who has dealt with property management companies in 20 different states, and more than 35 cities. These are a good group of people who try to get it right and thats all you can and should expect from them. My experience was good. They were responsive and in the end i got all of my deposit back - I got far more from KCHR than 80% of those i've dealt with in the past. Most companies ignore renters and make every effort to keep their deposits and this one didnt. There is a very good chance that, one day, i will return to Kansas City and when i do i WILL rent from them again! I appreciate all the people who post reviews here that they tried to give their opinions of this company and respect their comments but i would ask that anyone in the future wanting to rent - that you give them a try and see what happens. If you are fair and reasonable i believe they will be with you. Thanks

DONT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY! The only good reviews here are from property owners who use them as a…read moreproxy. I have rented a unit for almost three years. In that time my unit switched hands twice before ending up under this rental management company. In my time living here we have always had no access to our dishwasher, as they built it too close to the oven so it would not open at all. Never resolved. We had a case of roaches that was pretty bad, they lived inside of our oven and you could see them within the oven clock, the glow illuminating their eggs and bodies. When they had a pest service out to kill them, it did work, but even today we see their corpses within the oven timer and the company made no move to replace the oven. We had no mailbox for the first year of living here. We have had a lot of water damage in our time. If not the windows, then our sink leaking behind the wall and puddling by the front door. Or the baseboards growing a thick orange slime. We had water damage due to a leak in the front window that was patched three times with caulk by maintenance, but the damage to the wooden window sills still remains, and ants get in through the holes in the rotten wood. Those holes get bigger daily, as it chips. Our AC unit has always been loud and leaked water in puddles into the hallway, when we had maintenance out here told us that was normal condensation and to run the AC more and the water would stop. As we've ran it more this summer the water has only been flowing worse into the hallway and damaging the baseboards. When we noticed a strange smell from the air we opened the utility closet and found it covered in mold, black and white. Rotten wood everywhere. We stopped running the AC (it doesn't have a filter in it), and reached out to maintenance. While we were sweltering in a 80 degree apartment, maintenance was taking a week and more to get out and asses the issue. When he got there to see it, he told us it was bad and would be easier to fix with us not in the unit. Instead of fixing it, we have been forced to pay FULL rent for the month and live in 80 degrees with our cats for the rest of the month. We filed for vacancy due to the conditions, as our lease was not up, and they act as if they are doing us a favor letting us go. They kept our deposit and told us if the repairs cost more than our deposit we will have additional fees. The deposit definitely will not cover the mold, but that issue isn't even our fault. The unit right next to us also had a pipe burst, and was covered in black mold from wall to floor. They didn't fix it until my neighbor started to involve the health department, then they had it fixed in record time. My friend, who also rents a space managed by this company, also has the same issues. DO NOT RENT FROM ANY UNIT MANAGED BY THESE PEOPLE. They do not care about you, they will not take care of you. They will take your money and provide you a mediocre service.
