I have complained numerous times regarding these tenants about the dog and the loud racking of pipes on a pickup that they do many times a day as well often rattling my windows - I have emailed I have called I have texted Augusta and the issue is never resolved basically I was told by the company that the dog has a right to be there. So suffice it to say Augusta is not concerned about other tax paying citizens they are only concerned about collecting rent for their run down property

You'll pay water, gas, street fee, recycle which is none for the entire community. If you put in a maintenance order be prepared to wait 90 days. Only your rent is due in a timely manner before the 1st you'll get reminded but what about this nasty toilet water in my sinks or infested termites making my life a living hell. Read you lease thoroughly because they'll tell you in your face "it's not what you were told, it's what's in writing"! I'd never had such a horrible experience in my life. I don't recommend this company to anyone. Don't believe the marketing pics, please your feelings will be hurt! Pool hasn't worked in 5years. Laundry room is disgusting not fit for strays.

I had to pay everything out of my own pocket. I have a full paper trail and phone call logs about every single time I've tried to contact them and never fixed anything. I was living in my house for 3 years with NO LEASE because they would NEVER have anyone send me the paper work to sign and fill it out!! HOW DOSE THAT EVEN HAPPEN?! Britney Covin did NOT want to hear me about anything but wanted 6,000 because they closed down my portal to my rent, didn't want to send my ANY information to have that updated. Best believe I have a great attorney.

I would give 0 stars if I could. We have had bad experiences with realtor companies while leasing…read morebefore, but nothing like what we experienced with Key. Soon after moving in we discovered we had a leak in our roof, which then turned out to be several leaks all over the house. During the 12 month period we rented through them they sent maintenance out probably at least 5 times to "fix" it. It was NEVER corrected. We had asked for them to get professional roofers involved since it wasn't getting fix, it must have been beyond what maintenance could take care of. They sent a company out for a quote but nothing ever came of it. We can only assume they didn't want to spend the money on it. So nearly the entire 12 months we had leaks every time it rained, we had ceiling panels swell up with water, ceiling panels fall to the floor, who knows what growing in the framing, insulation and paneling. The last 3-4 months of the lease I was pregnant, so who knows what my baby and I were exposed to living with that mess!!! Had we been able to find a place we could afford sooner we would have broken our lease and moved early, as we would have had a right to. Sadly that didn't happen, but I am still angry our health and well-being was disregarded by this company. We had other complaints and maintenance requests that were never taken care of either, like a front porch that would swell with rain so the front door could hardly open, and the porch felt like it could collapse at any moment since it was most likely rotting. Bottom line, if you care about your families health and safety, steer clear! They may be nice enough people but they don't run their rental properties worth a damn. I have attached some of the pictures I took of various leaks we dealt with during our lease. There were others, some with ceiling tile falling out, but I don't have all of the pictures saved to my current phone to attach them. Please note, at NO point did the leasing office ever seem to consider this an emergency or a health hazard.

We rented a property through Gerard Property Management without seeing it in person, and…read moreunfortunately that decision exposed serious issues with how the unit was prepared. The home was not properly turned over prior to move-in. There were large, visible patch jobs on multiple walls, and the overall cleanliness was unacceptable. The condition of the unit upon arrival was far below any reasonable standard--unsanitary and clearly not ready for occupancy. And when I brought these issues to their attention, that was definitely something that they leaned on that this was site unseen, which was completely unacceptable. As someone with 10 years of experience in property management, I find it deeply concerning that a company would present a property in this state. There is a baseline level of care and habitability that management companies are responsible for, regardless of owner involvement. That standard was not met here. We had to arrange for professional cleaners two days in an row after move-in, totaling 16 hours of work just to make the space livable. Maintenance issues took OVER a full week to address. During this process, communication was inconsistent. When I raised these concerns with Cydney, I was told I was being "nitpicky," which was both dismissive and unprofessional given the severity of the issues. Questioning how SHE lives. Afterward, another representative (Jason/Justin) stepped in and did provide a rent credit while repairs and cleaning were completed, which was appreciated. However, the lack of accountability, poor communication, and initial condition of the property reflect broader operational issues. For property owners, I would caution that this company may not adequately protect or maintain your investment. For prospective tenants, I strongly advise against renting sight unseen through this management company. The experience suggests a pattern of inadequate preparation and reactive--not proactive--management.

Well when I moved in nothing had been done, no dusting or cleaning of any kind, holes in the walls trash in the yard. Worse thing is the carpets are stained from previous renters and never sent anyone out to attempt to clean them. Disgusted by the condition of the house when we got it and the poor customer service.

I lived in a Cooksey rental property for a year. Before a month into our contract we had informed…read morethem of a LONG list of problems with the property that became apparent upon moving in: broken cabinets, non-functional garage doors, bugs, heavily stained carpets. After 2-3 calls Cooksey did just enough to keep us at bay - sprayed for bugs, sent someone to assess the garage doors (ignored the carpets and cabinets). Upon moving out, Cooksey began to attempt to bill us for things that were never taken care of, and not damaged by us: dirty carpets, garage doors. Overall, the contract with Cooksey was painful and frustrating. Beyond things not getting done, my main frustration was with the way my roommates and I were handled. Never were things taken care of timely or fully. Icing on the cake, VERY rude interactions over the phone and always avoided what was really going on. Don't rent from Cooksey.
