I contacted Robyn when I was ready to purchase a home because she came highly recommended from a…read moretrusted coworker. I had an idea of what I wanted but when we met, Robyn helped me define the actual criteria and explained several areas I had not ever considered and why certain home features would be more advantageous for my needs. I never felt pressured to select her as my agent and left my first meeting with her thinking about everything she told me as an ethical realtor. I did my own research and she was absolutely right about the specific criteria we discussed. It took a few days to finalize my search and a few days after that, I had listings ready to review that met every need I had plus some "wishes." I was also very impressed because Robyn found listings that I would not have come across on my own in the specific local neighborhoods I thought I wanted. Robyn advocated for me with the sellers of the home I chose and I was absolutely thrilled with her thoroughness and helpfulness. The process was efficient, Robyn's communication was perfect, and I felt confident that I selected the right person to represent me and understand my interests. Robyn didn't waste my time showing me properties that didn't meet my needs, her communication was impeccable, and she was helpful and encouraging through the whole process. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again and have referred several people to her. I hate moving but I wouldn't hesitate to use her again!

After reading the reviews, I noticed most of the high ratings come from owners. That might explain…read morethe difference in experience, because as a tenant this company was difficult to deal with. Email communication often felt passive aggressive and any time I asked a simple question, I got long policy explanations instead of a real answer. I had to follow up several times just to try to renew my lease and kept getting the runaround. I eventually moved because paying rent on time should not come with that much hassle or uncertainty. I rarely needed maintenance since I handled most things myself. Getting my security deposit back took far too long and every time I asked about it, I got more excuses. They charged a 250 application fee, a 25 per person monthly service fee on top of rent, and even offered a 95 option to fast track the return of my own security deposit. On top of that, they offered to charge 495 for move out cleaning. No thanks I can do that myself. I've never ever not gotten back a security deposit. I'm not that person. Everything felt transactional and unnecessary, which honestly pushed me toward leaving. Right before my lease ended, I sent notice that I was moving. Even then, I got what felt like an automated message telling me my renters insurance needed to be confirmed for the next year. I replied saying I was moving out in a few days and still had insurance, and the response I got back basically told me to send proof or be charged 10 dollars. I am not letting anyone nickel and dime me over things like that. 10 dollars. Please quit the shit. Owners may have a smoother experience, but tenants deal with a very different side of things. Best of luck if you decide to rent from them. I will not be using them again. As a property owner and a renter, this definitely isn't the way people should be treated ever. I only have 2 stars because after 30 plus days I got my deposit back. Minus a f*+^€n 5.00 e-check fee. Yall needed that I guess.

If Bayou City Lux shares reviews internally, this one should also be directed to Ricardo. Every…read moretime I've spoken with him, it seems there is little understanding of the status of our maintenance requests. For example, the company has stated they have a tracking number for the part needed to repair our AC, yet no one can tell us where it is or provide a realistic timeline for when the repair will be completed. Communication has been consistently poor. Calls often go unanswered, and when someone does respond, it feels like no one has the information needed to actually help. As a tenant, it is incredibly frustrating to repeatedly explain the same issues without receiving clear answers or meaningful updates. What has been most disappointing is the lack of empathy. We have been dealing with property damage, concerns about the condition of the home, and the discomfort of living without air conditioning for an extended period. While window units were eventually provided, they have not adequately cooled the home and have instead made the rooms feel even more humid. Throughout this experience, it has felt as though collecting rent is treated as a higher priority than fulfilling the landlord's responsibility to provide a safe, habitable, and properly maintained home. This has been, without question, the worst experience I have had with a property management company or landlord.

Come June 1st, i found out Evan and Shana would be my new management. These guys are AWESOME!! With my first management company which was a large company, i had to drop off a check downtown. This is 2018. With Evan, I paid online. So easy! When my unit has had issues, instead of calling someone or a lengthy email, i just use an online portal to submit issues. The responses are super quick- either someone coming to repair or scheduling a repair. I see lots of reviews from the people who hired Evan Howell, they are completely correct with how they treat everyone. If I could do it all over again, I'd look for a rental these guys managed. Or maybe i will have them as my realtor when i decide to buy a home. Either way, I'd like to continue to use their services any way i can.

We rented through this property management company for five years, and during that time they raised…read moreour rent by roughly $100-$200 every single year. As a realtor, I repeatedly questioned the increases because the property simply wasn't worth what they were asking. Eventually, the gap between the rent and the actual market value became too large, so we moved out. Then came the move-out charges. They attempted to bill us for items that were clearly the landlord's responsibility, which felt less like property management and more like a scavenger hunt for extra fees. The best part? It turns out we were right. After we left, the property sat on the market for nearly a year. The rent had to be reduced over and over until it was close to the rate we originally leased it for. That's a long and expensive vacancy to prove a point. If you're a property owner, I'd think twice before taking pricing advice from a company that would rather let a property sit empty for months than admit they overpriced it. If you're a tenant, be prepared for annual rent hikes and a move-out process that may leave you defending charges that shouldn't have been yours in the first place.

Our leasing experience with this management company was frustrating due to poor communication and…read morelack of follow-through. The process took about a full month. During that time we were told three separate times that the property had been cleaned and was move-in ready. Each walkthrough showed otherwise -- no professional cleaning had been completed. We later learned there had been a water leak, which may have caused delays, but this was not clearly communicated upfront. When we first viewed the home, there were spider webs throughout and both dead and live roaches present. We raised these concerns and were repeatedly assured everything would be addressed before move-in. By the final walkthrough, the condition still had not been resolved, and an additional issue had come up. During that final walkthrough (yesterday), we were told that if we did not immediately pay the deposit, the owner wanted to move on to the "next applicants," even though the property issues had not been fixed. We were also told the owner had already "bent" by approving us, so it was essentially now or never. Once we confirmed we would not move forward under those conditions, we were then offered money off and the option to inspect the property after completion. At that point, it felt less like a proactive solution and more like pressure followed by a last-minute change in approach. There were also inconsistencies during the application process. When I initially called to ask about our application status, I was told there were other applicants ahead of us and we would be processed if they fell through. After I provided the address, the associate confirmed we were actually the only applicant. That kind of misinformation made the process feel disorganized. I understand that maintenance issues can happen and that properties owned by LLCs can sometimes add extra layers to communication. However, clear, accurate updates and accountability are essential when people are planning a move on a tight timeline. I hope this feedback helps improve the experience for future tenants considering this property in Richmond, TX.
