She's detail-oriented, professional, and really driven to make sure things get done right. What stood out most was how responsive and organized she is in her craft, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and their properties. I'll definitely be considering Bee to take over full management of my rentals in the near future.

She didn't…read moresimply guide us through the process (which, I'll add, she did so wonderfully), but she really cared about finding the exact right fit for us. She never pushed us to make a decision too quickly, tried to convince us that we needed something more expensive than our range, or tried to brush away our concerns in favor of trying to close a deal. In fact, Melanie's knowledge and attention to detail caught red flags in properties that we never would have known to look for, saving us wasted time or even major headaches had we moved forward with those properties! Melanie is extremely detail-oriented and frequently was reaching out with properties she thought were a good fit (and they genuinely were properties that met our specific requirements -- not some general email blast). She is also extremely responsive and very fast at setting up showings, which is so crucial in such a fast-paced market. When we finally found "the one", Melanie worked tirelessly to make sure we closed quickly and on time. She even helped us negotiate with the seller after the inspection to put some money back in our pockets. She really didn't have to do that, as she knew the deal was going to go through regardless. But she genuinely went above and beyond what she had to do, and for that we are so grateful. In fact, we raved about Melanie so much that the owner of the condo we were renting hired her to sell the condo after we moved out (it closed in less than two months!!)

Selling a home is extremely stressful. In my case, I was living in a different state and cleaning out the home on weekends and vacations. Jack's extensive network of vendors were reliable and delivered quality results, helping me with the final touches needed to get the house ready to sell. I highly recommend Jack Hill to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Their handling of their tenants and treatment of us as neighboring property owners has been nothing…read moreshort of appalling. For YEARS, their tenant has been destroying portions of our property, and despite being made fully aware of the situation, Mandy Management has failed to take any meaningful action to stop the damage, only to ignore us throughout ALL THESE YEARS even law enforcement. Instead of addressing the destructive behavior, they have turned a blind eye, excused the tenant's conduct, and allowed the situation to escalate. The tenant informed the police Mandy Management advised them to cut down all our trees. The situation has become even more distressing because their tenant frequently yells and screams at us in the mornings -- right in front of me and my disabled children. This is harassment, plain and simple, breach of peace as the police stated. It has created a hostile and unsafe environment for my family, which no one should have to endure in their own home. Mandy Management has done the opposite: they ignore legitimate concerns, enable their tenant's destructive actions, and allow them to lash out at their surrounding neighbors. Their negligence and hostility have caused unnecessary stress, financial loss, and damage that could have easily been prevented with even the most basic level of professionalism and accountability. If you are a property owner or renter considering hiring this management company, beware: they do not act in good faith, they do not protect property, and they certainly do not treat others with respect. Their conduct is a liability, not an asset. My children should not have to suffer daily in their own home.

Hotchkiss came highly recommended by a friend with several properties under their management. Not only have my vacancies gone down, but I have learned so much about the real estate business, they didn't just take the reins but rather helped me understand commercial real estate as a business, missed opportunities, inexpensive ways to make my units more attractive and more versatile and the occupancy rates speak for themselves. By far the best move I've made was working with them.

While the community events and amenities are plentiful, there are significant shortcomings in infrastructure and security protocols -- such as cameras or active security staff. Notably, this lack of security recently resulted in an incident where approximately 20 cars were broken into, in the supposedly "secure" premium garage. Tenants are left holding the bag on damages, while paying $150 a month for this "secure" garage parking. Plus, this major break-in event isn't the first time, there's been a repeated series of minor car break-ins and package thefts.

I've lived here several months now in a one bedroom that faces the courtyard. For a brand new…read morebuilding, I'm extremely disappointed with the construction. It doesn't seems like there was much forethought into the acoustics. The noise from the hallways carries through the front door to the apartment very readily, and vice versa. Additionally, I hear things like my upstairs neighbors' footsteps as they walk about their place and the dull hum of my adjacent neighbors' voices through the bedroom wall. And, even with windows shut, all of the activity from the courtyard carries into the apartment - not a huge deal as the pool closes at 8pm and courtyard closes at 10pm, but the occasional group will disregard these rules. These grievances aside, there are great amenities to the building. The staff is also friendly and responsive.

I was visiting New Haven the next week, and they said they had a few properties in my price range and told me to stop by. The minute I walked into CA White, I was greeted with sincerity and professionalism. Linda is an absolute pleasure to deal with. She's fair, kind, and has always been responsive. I looked at one of their luxury 2 bedrooms earlier, which was beautiful, but I was looking for something a little more modest. I ended up signing onto an apartment at 84 Howe St (Campus View), and while it's an old building, it's well maintained, really fairly priced, and located in a safe area and convenient distance from Yale. I really recommend renting through CA White!

PLEASE, if this is your first time selling your home and you find yourself on Pearce's website, do a little research of your own (reading reviews etc.). It's easily one of the biggest investments of your life and although the purchase of our home with a current employee here back in Winter of 2017 was the easiest / smoothest process and we were extremely happy, this was simply not the case for the sale of our home 1.5 years later (again,same realtor who helped us purchase). The only good thing to come out of this process was the simple fact that we had an offer within 5 days of our house being listed, there was an incredibly large miss on the offer that we had accepted that was overlooked and beings we were bound to, could not go back on (partially our miss but beings were not the ones making commission, this is the job of your realtor). From that point on, communication lacked and we felt as if we were the ones constantly asking what the next steps were in this process. Fast forward to 45 days later and multiple extensions from the buyers and we had finally closed and no longer have to be subject to dealing with a company who does not have paying customers best interested at hand.
