We've had REAL Star managing multiple properties for us over the last year and a half. It was very…read morechallenging finding a property manager to manage our properties because there weren't really great reviews in the Temple/Belton area and we didn't know who we could trust. We didn't want tenants having issues with non responsiveness and we didn't want mismanaged properties. We feel that REAL Star has been fair to both our tenants and us as property owners. We literally don't have a single complaint. They ALWAYS respond promptly and do so with a pleasant demeanor. To expedite repairs for our tenants we have designated a set dollar amount for repairs. If any repairs arose that are below that amount they take care of the issue promptly and email us to notify us (no approval needed). If it's above the designated dollar amount they notify us regarding the needed repair for approval. We receive monthly statements regarding all activity pertaining to our properties. This property management company is worth every single penny. I can't recommend them enough.

Two thumbs down. Don't even consider real Star property Management. Upon move out they will find a…read morereason to not refund your deposit and they will also find a way to bill you even more. Crooked and deceitful management. Actually, in my opinion, plain old thieves. Steer clear.

It was such a delight to work with Tricia--she was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and I could tell she took great care in looking after her clients' needs while working for a smooth transaction. I would highly recommend Tricia to buyers and sellers in the Temple area.

Dave Covington is truly a great realtor, he's responsive, incredibly knowledgeable of the area, and…read morean expert in his field. Since we were moving here for my residency program, we were under a time crunch and he managed to get us viable options within our price range (and desired location) very quickly. So quickly, in fact, that we had placed earnest money on a house within the span of a few days! It was one less thing to worry about knowing that we had a home lined up for when we moved our family here. We will absolutely be using him and Covington Real Estate in the future - thank you for everything, Dave!

She was very knowledgeable, responsive, a pleasure to work with and did I mention she was able to sell our home for more! When realtors tell you to ask less for your home, it is the lazy way to work.

As co-owner of the property, my experience with this agent was defined by a severe lack of…read morecommunication and professional transparency. Important, high-level questions were routinely met with extended delays or minimal, dismissive responses. Furthermore, I was excluded from crucial phone calls and strategic briefings that occurred privately between the agent and the other co-owner - this was a severe departure from standard joint-ownership and fiduciary protocol. She also failed to provide equal choices for property maintenance, offering only a single contractor rather than a transparent selection of vendors. Operational boundaries were ignored, with vendor visits scheduled with highly disruptive notice (such as 45 minutes). Requests for basic details regarding who was entering the property and what work was being reviewed were withheld. Critically, the disregard for professional standards was only corrected after I formally terminated our working relationship. The following day, the agent sent a lengthy, hyper-professional message attempting to reverse the pattern of negligence and requesting to be rehired. Real professionalism should be maintained throughout a transaction, not weaponized as damage control after an explicit breach of trust. I cannot recommend this agent for complex transactions where transparent communication and equal client representation are expected.

My wife and I moved from Tennessee and looked at a number of options, considering both purchasing…read moreand/or leasing a place to live. We had lived in our home in Tennessee for 38 years and had only lived in Tennessee all of our 57 years of marriage. All of that to say, it was a very difficult decision...a lot of emotions and indecision. Kirstie Rubio and the office staff at Spradley Properties were incredibly patient and accommodating to us...so very helpful and kind. We ended up selecting The Preserve at Nolan Creek over numerous other considerations. We have been in Belton at The Preserve for nearly two months now...and have loved and enjoyed our new home beyond description. We are near the campus of UMHB, and the students we have met who live in our apartment community at The Preserve have been kind, considerate, fun, and welcoming! One of Spradley's maintenance men (I think his name was Bart...) came out within our first few days to take care of a minor issue...and of his own initiative, addressed a couple of other small areas of his own finding. He was competent and caring, a joy to meet...like the girls at the office who had worked with us. It has been a wonderful experience working with people who have been professional, but warm and kind-hearted. Are you looking for a place to move? Start by contacting Spradley Properties!

They allowed me to move into a unit that had electricity meters switched with my neighbor I was paying his bill for almost a year before his DV situation got so bad he stopped paying electricity so my unit was left in the dark then I was left having to figure out the issue on a workday when I work from home. 0 compensation or accountability from management but they let me know they were aware as I wasn't the first or the last with this problem yet they did nothing to actively fix it. I was informed I could have reported these management people to board of realtors to get their licenses revoked but chose not to. They are the most unhelpful but problematic people. They come into your house 4 times a year to photograph everything and will charge you if they have to reschedule yet their maintenance never shows up but they don't care if you made arrangements to be there. Their quarterly inspector left my lights on while I was on vacation for 10 days, I should've sent them an invoice as they charge tenants for every thing imaginable. My lease was up in May but their management shares a brain cell & never closed our account as part of their policies so they took rent for June, I had to contact them for them to correct it and send me a check in the mail weeks later. Move out also came with 0 instructions but they charged me almost $500 for fees upon leaving with zero discussion, even charging for a light bulb while not sending proof of anything, they just sent me the difference from my security deposit to my forwarding address. I am aware management is already low caliber people but these guys operate from hell. So happy to never deal with these people ever again and this is coming from someone that never had to talk with them outside of the DV next door & always paid rent.
