Beware a business that doesn't know how to spell. You only get one chance to make a good first impression. Could've been better because I'm a little bummed after two of my cousins and I were at this business and saw their business sign in front. Their business sign in front with bad spelling is cringeworthy, annoying and hilarious all at once. Hey Realty Corner, Just exactly what is 'Commorcial Real Estate'? I just got through watching the Scripps National Spelling Bee where I saw children who knew how to spell better than the adults at Realty Corner. When a 13-year-old child can spell "stichomythia" on national tv, there is no reason why Realty Corner owners can't correctly spell commercial instead of using the bad spelling of "commorcial" on their front sign advertising. Bad spelling, or grammar makes, a business look bad. Real bad. Bad spelling makes a business look less credible and intelligent. There is little more that can make a business lose credibility more quickly and seem uneducated and not professional and not respectable than bad spelling. Bad spelling, or grammar, cost a company money. Customer Rule: Never patronize again a business that can't spell. A business should always make sure that its spelling is correct. Otherwise people will judge the business on it. That is the harsh reality. Realty Corner's poor spelling cost it our business and wrecked the customer relationship it had with us. There is only one boss. The customer. And he / she can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his / her money somewhere else. I won't be back. I would have rated them higher if their business sign in front had correct spelling on it. p.s. I checked all the one and two-star previous reviews here of this business as Useful and Cool. read more

Realty Corner - Just exactly what is ‘Commorcial Real Estate’? - Property Management Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

See all

OK now....rents set to make the P.M. income, an EXTRA fee to pay your rent online (as IF it costs PM ANYTHING, it doesn't, they're simply lazy and greedy)...requests go unanswered or excuses made. inspections set for a day but no time, as though tenants SHOULD take the day off (unpaid) for the PM's convenience (set a freakin time and BE considerate!).....ants are inundating this building and property management says it's not their responsibility. I DETEST property managers as they are in business to make money for themselves through YOUR hard earned wages, plus those of the property owners. Any excuses they can come up with to increase what is being charged is their M.O. and I simply refuse your GREED. read more

I wouldn't wish my worst enemy to be forced to communicate with the employees here. That is, when they chose to communicate (always on their own terms, never in the best interest of their tenants.) First and foremost, they are more than happy to accommodate tenants who are engaged in illicit activities and dealings, and if another one of their tenants objects or feels unsafe to be forced to live in that situation, well then, too bad! The property manager, Jason Evanchak, lacks any empathy for his tenants, and is most comfortable avoiding responsibility for issues that only he has control over. Even when provided with several issues repeatedly, he will be lackadaisical at best at merely acknowledging them. Solving them is a different story all together. (Spoiler, he won't solve any issues.) And this is coming from a respectful tenant who treats his property like a home, keeps their unit tidy, pays rent on time, abides by lease terms, and is always willing to report any issues with the property. He would rather protect those who trash his property, and make it unsafe to live in. Renters (especially students and parents helping their kids find a safe and comfortable place to live), this is a cautionary tale. I know the property is attractive. It's nicely-lit, and a quick walk to the university. And the price isn't bad either. It's the management who are keen on making your life a living hell. The grievance above is only a slice. These reviews need an in-depth and recent take on what it's like to live here. I am adding more below so other renters have a thorough understanding of what it's like to live here. Last winter (December 2017), our heat and thermostat broke all at once. I was contacting them every day through multiple methods to get the issue fixed, meanwhile being forced to live in a condition where I could see my breath inside while it was freezing or below freezing outside. It wasn't until two weeks later they sent someone to fix it. At the same time, our carbon monoxide detector needed new batteries. Something else they chose to ignore for two months. Those devices beep, and it gets upsettingly annoying. The previous summer (2017), our mailbox broke due to vandalism, and as a result, ALL the tenants did not receive mail while PMI/Realty Corner took their sweetest time possible getting it replaced, having no consideration for tenants who did not have the means to travel to the post office to collect important mail that they were expecting. And then when the mailboxes were finally replaced, they expected all their tenants to travel all the way out to Sparks to collect their new mail keys. (Fun fact, the effects from this incident are still hindering our mail delivery a year later in summer of 2018.) Utilities and internet are included in our rent, and so whether you like it or not, you are contributing payment to whatever abysmal data plan they have. The internet is very lacking and slow, and if you contact PMI to request for Charter (the local tv/phone/internet company) to come out to take a look, their first response is to have the tenants try to fix it first with unplugging and replugging the modem. They apparently don't trust your intelligence enough to gather you might have tried that prior to calling. And this is an ongoing issue. It's never fixed fully. They are very hands off with their rentals. They furnish common areas, but not often. Dining chairs are trashed from previous tenants. Living room couch smells like cat pee. Rug hasn't been shampooed in ages. They have such little attention to these details. All they do is send in custodians once a month who barge in, shout at each other, wipe down the counters, and leave. Granted, I think tenants should be able to keep the common area clean, but it's just goes to show how they really don't care. Help with DEEP cleaning would be far more appreciated. Four college students are more than capable of utilizing a Clorox wipe. Go figure. I hope this review would deter a soul from renting. PMI are only out to take advantage of you. I'm so sorry. read more

Do not rent/buy from these crooks! When first signing lease about 5yrs back we were informed that inspections were done every year. Turns out they're done every 6 months or "when deemed necessary." Per property management! Management would come in and take pics of property and say "everything looks good" then put in a documented report sent to homeowners that property was unkempt and trashed. Turns out that NV statutes support the renters more than you think, especially in a legal setting. These clowns tried to keep entire deposit as they have done to most and they lost big in the legal world! Heed my advice and Keep Away from this shady establishment! read more

Dealing with Realty Corner PMI Nevada is not worth your time, money, or frustration. As a tenant of the Manzanita Manor complex for 10 months, the only thing that keeps me from describing Realty Corner's neglect as "unbelievable" is the fact that I saw it with my own eyes. Over the course of my final two months as their tenant, I made multiple calls to the office and met twice with the company on my own time concerning a leak in my apartment unit. The leak damaged my furniture in the apartment, and I had to move my belongings in the apartment in a way so as to minimize any further damage. Mold grew because of the leak. Because the unit is situated above a parking garage, the ceiling of the garage dripped water and sagged. Despite all of this, the leak remained unfixed until I moved out due to their neglect. When I moved to the unit, I paid Realty Corner 320 dollars of prorated rent and did not receive the keys to the unit for two weeks. Despite that I left multiple calls regarding this issue, these calls were not returned. When I reached out to the owner of the company regarding this issue and requested that this money be refunded to me, he stated that there was "no proof" that I had made efforts to contact the property manager, despite that the property manager had since been fired for the very reason of not returning her tenants' calls. The company did not fix the guaranteed WIFI connection for the property for 1 month despite that I and the other tenants of the building made numerous inquiries to the company regarding this. The lease drafted by Realty Corner for the Manzanita Manor apartments contains stipulations that do not apply to the units or is simply contradictory. It is amazing to me that a leasing company is not competent enough to draft an appropriate lease for one of its own properties. For instance, parts of the lease refer to the security deposit as a "non-refundable cleaning deposit" while others refer to it as "refundable". Upon moving out, despite that I demanded that the deposit be refunded to me, they removed 45 dollars of the 300 dollar deposit for a "lock change" and 25 dollars for "move out charges". There are plenty of places to live in a region as large as Reno/Sparks without having to deal with this company. Even if you have to pay more to rent from other companies or landlords, the extra money that you spend will be worth your peace of mind. This company is an absolute disaster, and it is the most poorly conducted business I have ever dealt with as a customer. read more

1 word....horrible!! This place is a joke, ran by a bunch of idiots!! Tom, you are useless!! They do zero to handle concerns! Any homeowner who pays this place to manage their property is wasting their money!!! read more

The worst company in the world, my kid lived in one fo their shithole apartments, they never fixed anything or showed up to do work. they are over priced and horrible service, they just sent me to collection for 40 bucks they say he owed, after they kept the whole security deposit. what a bunch of crooks, if you rent from them beware, i would rather live on 4th street then anything they have!!! read more

18 Vine St. Keeping this short: Bed bugs in my building, mold issues, broken sewage pipes, almost 3 weeks of a Port a potty smell, far too many disregarded phone calls and questions, backing on only 3 of the stairs to the upper apartments, many complaints. And $400 charge to paint a less than 500sq ft apt. Is this even legal? I haven't ever written a negative review before but save yourself. read more

Three years later you would like me to get in touch with you ?????? Lmao I been long gone soon as I was able to you can't sit here and tell me it was based on the service drivers opinion when I bet you my life that before the previous tenants left that you guys inspected that garbage disposal !!??!! I just hope others have learned or read my post before renting cause it sucks how people can be taken advantage of and have no power to do anything about it ! Wanna here another situation we moved out before the 30 day notice cleaned and left lights off guess what I got a power bill from you guys for the days I wasn't even living there lmao cause someone went in to inspect the house and left lights on ! It's a scam any thing to get a buck I guess and I really hope you have changed that place around not saying any of this is your fault but it's the companies fault it's horrible disgusting way to run a office / biz read more

I don't have the choice to make it zero stars!!! Horrible horrible horrible!!!!!! I had no problems until I moved out and they took my hole deposit!! Never have I ever had my hole deposit taken from me. Reed Smith is a Co owner of this place and hung up on me twice and did not respond to my emails!!!! I WILL BE TAKEN THEM TO COURT AND BBB!! I REPEAT DO NOT RENT FROM THEM THEY WILL TAKE ALL YOUR MONEY!!!! read more

As agreed with everyone else that has rated them before. Horrible service, I'd rather rent an apartment they are more convenient and won't charge you for uneccesary fees as they will take most of your deposit in all to justify cleaning a house that has already been cleaned. read more

These people are crooks. I was told I could turn in an application that they would be able to approve me and the app would be good for 6 months, for any property. I turned it in and paid 40 dollars. I never heard back from them. They didn't even work on it, just took my money. Don't do business with these people, unless you want to get robbed. Terrible experience. read more

We are currently renting a property that Realty Corner manages. They are very shady, have lied to us, and are condescending. If you own a house and are looking for a management company, look elsewhere. If you are a renter, save yourself a major headache and find another place to live. Patrick and Jason (the two people we have dealt with regarding our rental are absolutely terrible. Patrick lied multiple times about repairs that were supposed to be done before we moved in and treated us like jerks when we brought his lack of integrity to his attention. Jason is a little less bad, but still rude and does not keep his word. Their favorite line "There must have been a miscommunication." If you prefer to do business with people who care about people, follow through on their word, and have integrity then go elsewhere. We absolutely will not ever rent from them again. If they had better customer service and kept their word, we would likely renew our lease. If you're a property owner keep this in mind, as happy tenants tend to stay put. read more

I rented from Realty Corner for two years, from 2014-2016. Every dealing with them was smooth and professional. I recommend them to everyone. When I had a maintenance issue, they always followed up promptly and addressed it. Once I put in a maintenance request online at 930 pm or so due to leaking water and they called me within 10 minutes to offer me options on how to proceed. read more

RCI is the worst property management company I've ever encountered. They don't return calls and they don't follow up on the promises they make once you do manage to talk to one of their people. It appears that I'm going to have to hire an attorney to deal with them. read more

These people were nothing but extremely rude. They pretended like were going to work with us but never had any intentions of it just came up with a hundred excuses and rented the place right out from under us. Read the other reviews on here too, they're horrible! Don't waste your time there are much better property management companies out there! read more

If I could give less stars I would. We are currently renting a property from Realty Corner and I can't wait until my lease is over to get away from this management company. My biggest complaint is that whenever we have any maintenance problems, nobody in the office can take two minutes to help you. Today I had to call 3 times just to talk to the supposed one person that can handle maintenance requests. Tina is completely rude and acted like I was crazy for calling back more than once when nobody returned my phone messages/online requests over a 3 day period. Past maintenance experiences have also been horrible. We used to have to deal with Patrick, whose even more rude and lazy than Tina. Use a rental company that cares about their tenants/ customers. read more

Realty Corner took $80 between my boyfriend and I for an application, then skipped us because there were too many people asking about the property we were applying for because my boss and landlord didn't fax them back quick enough. They gave them less than 24 hours to respond. They also told me I could apply for two different properties, or they didn't explain themselves well enough, so I thought if the one didn't work out, we could have a back up and that property got rented out also. Now we are out $80 with nothing Realty Corner has to offer in our price range. Also, Realty Corner, take your non available properties off of Trulia or any other rental site so people can have an easier time finding places. I've had to call multiple times about properties that were listed, but not available. read more

I'm glad to see i am not the only unhappy resident that had to deal with these crooks. We lived in our house for 5 years. We always paid rent and we took very good care of the house. It wasn't long after we moved in that we come to reliaze it was pointless to ask for any kind of maintance because they would never show up or of they did he was belligerent drunk and wouldnt even fix anything. We had to do most of the repairs. Now, they are trying to charge us for things that we should NOT have to pay. The law in NV is a life span of carpet is 5 years, when we moved in they told us the carpet is very old, over 10 years old, my husband and i scrubbed that place from top to bottom AND spent $320 to clean the carpet, which they tried saying we lied about (and they told us not to worry about now i see why) they claim to have found a dead animal under the house and blame us?!?!?!!! They are also claiming the yards were a disaster which i have picrures to proof the grass was green and all weeds were pulled from the dirt backyard but if you drive by now its all dead and over grown, i habe pictures of that too, thats what they are trying to charge us for. We asked for a copy of our lease and our original walk through, which they still haven't sent but have no problem sending boogies recites of the claims they are trying to charge us with. Don't even try going to their office, they are always closed or if they are not closed the property manager (Ellie) is too much of a chicken to come and talk to you for any reason at all and she has no problem hunging up on you. She is very unprofessional as most of those people in that company. Too many times have we taken off work to go over there to get our paper work or whatever the reason is and they are closed for lunch, 11am, 12pm, 1om, 2om etc and don't even try and go in on a Friday ha what a laugh.. do not rent or buy from these thieves. read more

The lack of customer service and unprofessional, disrespectful treatment is astounding. Stay away from this company if you can.

Horrible. Poor business practices. Jason Evanchak is unethical and shady to both tenants and homeowners. Don't hold your breath for any of your phone calls or emails to be returned. This company takes weeks to reply to your needs. We had to wait over 2 weeks for the air conditioner to be repaired. They send vendors to your place without calling first. By the time we moved out there were multiple items that were asked to be repaired for the past 6 months that was never repaired. HOMEOWNERS DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! You will not be well represented and your property will not get the care it needs. read more

By far THE WORST real estate company in Reno, renters beware! I rented one of their homes 2 years while a student at UNR. If I had known how incompetent they would be and dishonest I would have never rented from them. I was in constant contact with them about issues with the house, most of which we took care in the first month because they were there when we moved in. Then to only be charged and loose 3/4 of my deposit for issues that had nothing to do with us living there. DO NOT PUT YOURSELF THROUGH THE PAIN I HAD TO GO THROUGH! read more

Worst property management ever! I rented from them at the same property for 5 years only because I could not find another home the same size for the same price. I asked them to paint and repair the carpet prior to moving in. They refused and due to a series of unfortunate events, I had no choice but to move in. I constantly called their maintenance department for repairs in the home. I called for leaking sinks, mold problems, and chimney sweeping issues. No body ever got back to me, after countless attempts to get a response from them. I was left with no choice but to take care of it myself! I submitted receipts but for some reason the company "can't find that documentation." At time of the move out the company charged me for items that needed to be repaired before I moved into the unit! And of course their move in inspection for did not match the move in form that I filled out! Do yourself a favor and stay away from them! read more

Don't ever rent anything from these people, they are the biggest crooks!!! You will never get your deposit back, they will make things up and charge you for repairs that didn't need to be done. Thank God I took pictures of the place after I cleaned it, out of a 1,000.00 they gave me 28.00 Taking them to court the proof is on my side. read more

i can not recommend using realty corner to anybody! dont let their nice office fool you, they paid for it by nickle and diming thier costumers and raising rent without justification. they provided zero fallow-up on tenant issues such as yard maintainance, sewer issues and quality of service provided. This would not be a big deal, except their services were sub-par quality, not punctual and handled pooly inwhich they then passed the cost and blame on to the tenant. do not expect a company that has your best interests in mind. i would recommend cutting-out the middle man and rent straight from a land lord or use RC competetor. realty corner is very poor at returning phone calls and i find thier employees often "pass the buck" to each other around thier office, often exhausting you with thier run around with all the different contacts. specificly Reed, Ken,Tina read more

WORST Real Estate company ever!! I would NOT recommend renting or using them as your management company. There is absolutely zero follow up or communication from the staff!! Good luck if something actually needs repair - SLUM LORDS!!! read more

***CAUTION: DO NOT RENT FROM THESE SCAM ARTISTS!!*** I'm only giving this shady business one star because negative zero isn't an option. Had my fiance and I seen these reviews, we NEVER would've rented from them. Where do I start? From the beginning, Realty Corner false advertised their rental unit in their ad stating the home had granite countertops and stainless steel appliances...they were plastic. (Pssst! That's illegal, Realty Corner!) We let it slide because we loved the home so much. We moved in and next thing we know, the washer/dryer doesn't work properly. The law states that all advertised appliances in a rental unit must be in working order at the time of move-in. The heater was also blowing cold air and we moved in in December. So here we are in the middle of a snowstorm with no heat and me, my fiance and our little girl couldn't do our laundry. Luckily, my fiance does maintenance for a living, so after SEVERAL attempts to call, email and put in online work order requests and no response, HE took it upon himself to fix the heater. The dishwasher also was not working properly, so once again, my fiance had to flush the lines himself. After an unacceptable number of maintenance requests and a threat to report them to the Nevada Housing Division/ Tenant rights, did they finally come out and replace our washer/dryer. That was it. Great first impression of this horrible company! We stayed for two years and had nothing but problems with Realty Corner- now calling themselves "PMI Nevada". Chris, the maintenance manager has little to no regard for people's lives or privacy and lacks people skills something fierce. A quarterly inspection is conducted and they send you a letter TELLING you when it will be. Any request that they work around your schedule is useless. I work from home and requested they come on a day my fiance was off work and could be there, as I did not want to be home alone with a male stranger. This request was repeatedly never honored and Chris decided to show up anyway, causing my dog to bark and my customers to hear it over the phone, also leaving our garage door open after he left giving anyone access to our vehicles, personal belongings, tools and access to the inside of our house. Yes....all while I was working alone from home and did not realize the door was open until evening when my fiance returned home from work. When you call to express your grievances, your concerns are met with snide, snarky comments and NOTHING is ever done to resolve these matters. The majority of our issues always stemmed from maintenance and Chris- who is clearly in the wrong field of work. Don't try to stop by their office to pay rent, ask questions or do any business with them- their office is never open. Not in the morning, not during lunch, not after lunch. You can't leave your rent in a drop box, because they haven't figured out a way to get people to stop vandalizing theirs (lol). So your only option is to pay rent through their online portal and they charge you $5.00 to do so. They will raise your rent, your sewer, trash and water without notice. Lastly, we always paid our rent on time. We took care of the house- we never even wore our shoes in the house in an attempt to keep the carpets clean and new. We cleaned the house from top to bottom, including blinds, vents, baseboards, cob webs, steam cleaned the carpets, etc. We got $250 back of our $1,500+ deposit...basically our pet deposit. They charged us a LOCK CHANGE FEE AND AN "ADMIN. FEE" just for moving out- even though we returned the keys to them?! They nickel and dimed us for things like light bulb changes, a new coat of paint on the walls and nail holes, which is considered normal wear and tear. Considering we lived there 2 years, we should not have been charged for these things.. Get it together, Realty Corner/ PMI Nevada. You are going to be in a heap of legal trouble very soon! Renters/Buyers, beware! The internet is your friend...you've been warned. read more

Fantastic staff truly care about people, went out of there way to help us . Thank you so much!

The realtor Chris Newmyer is the most unprofessional real estate agent I have seen. He was extremely rude and showed no professionalism during a showing of my house. I will never refer anyone to him and I will be shredding his card. read more

I am very pleased with Realty Corner. I enjoy the luxury of being able to pay my rent and schedule service request through their online tenant portal. Most of the time when there is an issue it is taken care of promptly. Of course the squeaky wheel gets oil however, overall they are very easy to work with. read more

0 stars for this terrible Company!!!! I am in the move out process/fighting with crazy charges!!!! I gave them 1750.00 in deposits over 3 years ago and they want another 900 for cleaning repairing charges! Who in their right mind would be ok with these charges? They are charging me for replacing perfectly good toilet seats, replacing batteries in smoke detectors, a charge for window cleaning and carpet cleaning right after I gave them receipts for the same thing out of my own pocket. 20 hrs of house cleaning to a spotless OCD house. oh yeah and 45.00 per hour @ 5 hours to do yard work????who in their right mind would pay for yard work to be done for 45/hr when the yard is greener than the flowers they are smoking!!!! Ellie is a big piece of work and the whole company should be shut down. Homeowners please call me and I will run your property better than anyone at this company will with my eyes closed....and you will make a profit without ruining families lives! the only standup one is Kris Hughes! at least she had some compassion for us but still nothing has changed. A Corporation going after a broke family trying to keep a roof over our heads but now we live with family in order to survive in this market of GREED!!! read more

Unbelievably bad business practices. My building switched to their management at the end of the month and despite having no idea who owned my building for the first three days, they charged me a late fee for not paying my rent when I didn't know who to pay it to. Their note told me to schedule an inspection yet when I did they didn't bother to show up and after 4 calls to their office they finally told me they didn't want to bother with the inspection I waited two hours for. Despite having no information on how to pay my utility bill or when it would come on the welcome notice, the women in the office told me I apparently now had an account with them of which I was unaware of that would go to collections if I didn't pay it, possibly before they even told me it existed. When I told them that might be helpful information for the letter they told me that wasn't their job. To top it off, the manager Jason, when I asked what the disconnect in our communication was told me he was speaking english and asked what language I might be speaking. read more

These people are horrible! Before we moved out we told them about the mold we found. They told us to leave it since we were moving out and they said they have had problems with mold there before. The ventilation was horrible in that place. The walls were dripping with water always no matter how much we left the windows open. Then they charged us to clean it and for 10 gallons of paint for 350 square foot place. We tried to ask them about it and they would not return our calls. Then when we finally went down there to talk about it they were very rude. They charged for a scorch mark on the wall next to the stove that was caused by the stove being too close to the wall. We reported it and they said don't worry about it. We still did not cook on that side because of fear of fire so they then charged us for it. Long story short they took our whole deposit plus charged us $78 and we left it very clean except for the mold. Renters beware!! read more

this is a horrible place , don't ever think to rent a house or any ...they are not honest, they gonna charge you for everything even a small hole in the wall...these people need to be bring to court..horrible, horrible people... read more
