We provide on demand pest control, and HVAC air filters for all of our properties, at no cost to you. Rent is collected electronically through a PM software called Appfolio which allows tenants to submit maintenance requests and communicate with us through the software. Owners also have access to the software so they can submit requests, download monthly and annual statements, and communicate with us as well. We try to keep our fees simple and all inclusive, without any of the junk fees that some management companies charge. Our in-house maintenance team can handle most repairs, and at a cost usually significantly less than hiring a third party vendor. But we do have relationships with area vendors if the issue is something our team is not licensed or trained to complete. There are many choices when it comes to choosing a property management company, so we appreciate you considering ours. It's a great compliment when someone trusts us to look after such a valuable asset, and we don't take that responsibility lightly.

After putting our security deposit down and signing our applications we scheduled to meet with Angie for another showing just to refresh our memories. We were scheduled for July, 18 3:00 pm. Upon arriving Angie was not there. We called and she said we wouldn't be able to tour the property today because she was unable to get approval from the current residents to tour. She admitted to dropping the ball, however all it took was a phone call to cancel with us and avoid wasting everyone's time. If I respect your time then respect mine in return, especially when it's your hands I lay my money in. We rescheduled a second appointment for July 20, 1:30 to tour. Upon arriving Angie was not there again. We called, she answered and completely forgot about our appointment. She finally arrived 20 mins late. While waiting for her we called Williamson Company in order to file a complaint. Our phone call with Tim (the owner) was worse than our experience with Angie. After explaining what happened he said "If you're unhappy we can give you your money back, idk what you want me to do. I'm not gunna fire her and she has a lot on her plate." After hearing that we concluded Williamson Company just didn't give a fuck about their residents or running a business properly. We were better off pulling out and getting all our money back which is exactly what we did since we hadn't even signed a lease yet. We rather scramble around now to find another home then ever deal with this company again. Why not just call and cancel rather than not show up? Why not keep your word? Why not ask if there is something you can do to help instead of immediately resulting to give us our money back? Or why not be a company worthy of being trusted with people's money? Don't trust these people with your time, money, or home cause apparently you can't expect anything from them.

This review is on the basis of living in this apartment complex for almost 2 years (1yr 11mo)…read more The complex itself is beautiful; it has the looks of a modern apartment complex like in Irvine, Ca (look it up). The grounds are well kept and the common areas that include the amenities are equally just as nice. There are deer right outside the complex at the creek and also miles of hiking across the street. I think where the complex falls short is the upkeep of the grassy areas. Although it is not the complex's responsibility to pick up animal feces, there are plenty of times where I've walked by patches of grass that has dog poops and no doggy poop bags at the clean up station (at least this complex provides bags, so that's a plus!). I've lived in two different apartment sizes thus far, 1 br 1ba the 700+ square ft and the 640+ square ft and really it's up to your liking on how much you want to pay. Do note though for a nicer view of the lake, stained concrete floors (great for pets), first floor luxuries, bigger sqft. etc., you will have to pay a tad bit more, but really you get what you pay for. The community and residents itself is a good mix. I like the fact that there is diversity here (college kids, young professionals, and working adults). That can also be a con, because although it is a luxury apartment complex, there are college kids who cause a ruckus from time to time and I have filed a few complaints to the office regarding that. Other than that, the social events that the leasing office provides provides a good opportunity to commingle and get to know your neighbors. Lastly, I'd like to mention that the front office staff are simply amazing. Having lived here for a while, you get to know them and how sincere they are about addressing your needs. They are a small staff and sometimes it can take a while to address your concerns, but when they do get to your concerns (and complaints), they seem fair at fixing the problem and they do have a nice follow up (phone call, email, text about satisfaction). Nothing but good to mention about the staff here at the complex. For the most part, this complex is meant for young professionals, and people who live in San Marcos but are not college students. Doesnt mean college kids cant live here, its just a little pricey for the students to live here on their own (this comment is in regards to the local "impact" newsletter and the reported mean salary wages and mean age range of the city). Really, if you are looking for a luxury apartment complex that has a good mix of people, above average amenities, and just far enough away from the college, I'd recommend this place. Good luck in your apartment hunt!

LIVE HERE IF YOU LOVE MOLD!!…read more If you have health conditions or mold allergies, or if you are perfectly healthy stay away from this place. Living here was a nightmare. And unfortunately took a year plus away from living a normal life. My partner and I were exposed to mold that caused constant headaches, congestion, random illnesses, and breathing difficulties--the list goes on. I repeatedly contacted the office about my concerns, but they completely disregarded them. The only solution they offered was to clean the air ducts for "mildew." Shortly after the ducts were cleaned, our symptoms became much worse, likely because the mold was spread throughout the apartment. We eventually had to contact corporate and explain what was happening, including that I have pre-existing health conditions. Corporate said a professional mold tester would be sent to the apartment. After the testing, the property manager emailed me stating that there was mold growth, but claimed it was "normal." When I asked her to attach the actual test results, she sent another email stating the conclusion showed no mold growth at all. These were two completely contradictory statements. The results themselves showed elevated levels of Aspergillus/Penicillium and the presence of multiple mold types that were not found outdoors, which was used as the control. Despite this, management insisted the mold levels were "not elevated." And It was mostly in the bathroom connected to the bedroom where I sleep and spend half of the day there!! This experience was incredibly frustrating, misleading, and harmful to our health. If you value your well-being--especially if you have allergies or respiratory issues. I strongly recommend staying far away!! Even 9 months out of the moldy apartment I lived in, I am still fighting with health issues. I would give this place 0 stars if I could. Living here was disgusting. On the other note THIS APARTMENT IS WAY TOO EXPENSIVE TO BE LIVING IN THESE CONDITION!! Go save money, time and your health by choosing another apartment. UPDATE TO SYNC'S DUMBASS RESPONSE: They are really gonna reply back saying that there was NO mold growth. Look at those disgusting pictures of MOLD in our apartment. And I guess all of my health problems I'm just making up . THE COMPANY THAT CAME TO DO THE MOLD TEST WAS HIRED BY SYNC. So if you have the same problems. GET YOUR OWN MOLD TESTER. They also keep saying that the testers tested NO mold and that's not what the tests or results say. The results say that the mold levels aren't elevated. Which for a normal person you might not feel the effects as much. But I have health issues that they never seemed to care about and made no difference to them. They would not let us resign on our lease the only option was to move to another moldy unit. AGIAN DON'T MOVE HERE. GO LOOK AT ALL THE REVIEWS CALLING THEM FRAUDULENT!!!

My sister had his dad manage her condo. He was what you would expect from a property manager and thought his son would carry that on. A "lease contract" has absolutely no meaning to him at all. He is the laziest property manager, does not follow his own contract rules. A Breach of contract on his part as a property management company. He will allow pets (after I sent photos of proof) when it says no pets, allows parties, allows tenants to destroy your house and yard without a care in the world. His father was outstanding and his son is a worthless owner and property manager. If you care about how your property is lived in by tenants, do not allow this guy to manage it, because he will not. He will never check on the tenants or the property. He also does not do background checks. Your house, like my mother's is now, will turn into a crack house, literally and he will not care or do anything about it. At this point it is not even about all the property damage, but the Breach of Contract on his end and the tenants. I recommend not using Skiles for your property management if you care about it. It is sad for us to see how destroyed the house we grew up in has become under his management.

Really disappointed in Great Locations and the manager, Jennifer and her lack of professionalism. I…read moremoved into my unit at PeachTree lofts in September and have had only poor experiences with the property itself but also with Great Locations and the staff. Upon moving in, the buildings exterior lights were shutting off right after sunset and the entire building was pitch black, creating an unsafe environment at night. I called and spoke with Jennifer and requested the lights be kept on overnight since I get home from work at nearly 4:45am and cannot see anything around the building. I was ensured the lights would be turned back on. It took weeks and multiple calls for the lights to finally be turned back on. However, within a month, once again the exterior lights were shut off, leaving the building in complete darkness. As if this were not enough of a worry, the lack of lighting became a serious security and safety issue when cops were called after a man was caught peeping in the windows of TWO units occupied by girls (myself included). Again, it took multiple calls for the lights to be turned on and each time I spoke with Jennifer she had an excuse. Over two weeks ago, I called in regards to not only the exterior lights being shut off again, but also in regards to the AC in my bedroom not working. I spoke with Jennifer who told me she would get the electrician out to the building to fix the lights and would have the AC company call me to schedule an appointment. A week later, I had not heard from Jennifer or the AC company and the lights were still shut off. I called Jennifer to follow up and was told that the electrician would be out the next day, however, she acted surprised when I told her I still had not heard from the AC company and told me she would call me back right away after talking to them. 5 days after and I still have not heard from Jennifer or the AC company, leaving me to deal with a hot room in the summer heat. The lack of communication is extremely unprofessional and considering I have had to call in regards to the lights at least on four separate occasions, it is obvious that Jennifer does not care about her tenants or their safety. This has been an ongoing issue since I moved in nearly 9 months ago, and there is never a permanent fix. I wish these were the only issues I've encountered, however the list goes on. The parking lot has only 2 guest spots and on three separate occasions I have had to wait in my car for a tow truck to come since visitors parked in the assigned parking spots. On one occasion, myself and three other residents were unable to park our cars due to another resident having a party and refusing to move his guests cars. It took three hours for a tow truck to come and I had to spend the night somewhere else. I called Jennifer on each occasion and it was not until the last call that a generic email was sent out. Additionally, in result of the poor construction of the units at my complex, I can hear EVERY step and conversation from the unit above me. This is no exaggeration, I can make out complete conversations that the gentlemen above me have each day in addition to where they walk in the apartment since the noise carries so easily. Lastly, while there were empty units at my complex, Jennifer chose to show my unit to prospective tenants at all hours of the day. I work nights and asked that since they insisted on showing my unit, tours be given later in the afternoon so I could sleep. Despite this, a tour was given and the leasing agent knocked on my bedroom door and woke me up so the prospective tenants could see my bedroom. On another occasion, I woke up so that a tour could be given, however, after the leasing agent was over 30 minutes late I locked my door and went back to bed only for him to show up with a rude attitude insisting I open the door for him to give the tour. Overall, I DO NOT recommend living at PeachTree Lofts or anywhere that uses great locations as the property management company. My complex is not only UNSAFE but also uncomfortable to live in.

My wife and I were first-time home buyers and went with Bramlett Partners based off reviews online…read more We ended up being contacted by Kiel Schmidt who was very professional and thorough regarding what the entire buying process would look like. He provides very clear communication regardless if you prefer calls/emails/text, and he was very accessible throughout the whole process.

Kiel gave us recommendations for what pricing to start with and helped with negotiations as well as giving a recommendation for a home inspector so that we would be well prepared on the condition of the house during the option period. Negotiations were data-driven with comps in the area and he also provides monthly market analysis. I would definitely recommend Kiel for home buyers!
