Jade Property Management

Jade Property Management

After a horrible experience working with another local property management company, I was very…read morecautious about finding a new one. Diane, Bo and Sarah are the owners of Jade Property Management (JPM) and I couldn't be happier with them. JPM does property management ONLY. So there are no distractions with trying to close a home sale, or showings, etc. They are excellent with communication, both phone and email. This is important to me, because I am an out-of-state property owner, and, being military, could potentially deploy at any time. JPM takes the time to research different solutions and allows the owner to have the final say. For example, the built-in microwave door had broken off its hinge - JPM called to let me know they were having their handyman research the cost of replacing the part that was broken vs. the cost of purchasing and installing a whole new microwave. They came back to me two days later with the information, and allowed me to make the decision. Another example of good business practice, and why I appreciate having them as my property managers, in the event of maintenance or repair, they inform me of the costs, and deduct it from the next month's rent, allowing me to plan ahead. Again, I'm very pleased thus far, working with JPM, and I look forward to continuing this working relationship for as long as I own my property in Summerville.

After being in our new rental a couple of months, I find myself counting down the days until my…read morelease is up. There were several problems with the property when I looked at it, and JPM agreed that they would be fixed in a timely manner. The ONE thing that was "fixed" was done so poorly, the repair person left bare electrical wires exposed and the problem reoccurred within one day. Every time I call JPM, the phone rings once and goes to voice mail. It is nearly impossible to get in touch with them when it's convenient for me, and their callbacks usually happen while I'm at work. I hate moving, but I will gladly move next year when my lease is up so I can get away from Jade Property Management.

I just wanted to take a minute and send a HUGE thank you to Chris and The Family Real Estate Group…read moreas a whole. We had been working with a contractor/real estate agent for several months, who abandoned our project and was trying to bully us into making decisions that were not in our best interest. By the grace of God, we came across this agency while looking for an appraisal to see where we were. He immediately stepped up, realized we were in trouble and went to work with us. He patiently stood by us while we tried for months to terminate our contract with the original realtor and was an invaluable mentor through the entire process. With Chris's help, we were able to get referrals to TRUSTWORTHY contractors, get the work done, and he worked tirelessly to get the house shown, advise us on what needed to be done, fielded phone calls and emails, re-listed, aggressively marketed, and supervised the progress every day. We finally closed YESTERDAY, and would not have been able to do it without his help and the support of his team. We will forever be grateful for his unwavering support and service to us. Today, we have a happy ending, and my parents' future is secure thanks to Chris and The Family Real Estate Group. YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER GROUP of realtors in Charleston. Thank you again!

Our experience with Oak Trust was relatively positive, however, when our lease was not renewed…read moreafter nearly 10 year in the same home. Communication was non-existent. As a family, we felt we should have been afforded an explanation as to why our lease had not been renewed, but there was none. It started with a change in the inspection procedures and non-personable personnel and ended with penalizing our security deposit for an "unclean" home cleaned by a cleaner they explicitly recommended as part of the move out process. In the end, our family recognizes there might have been something we did wrong that brought about the end of our relationship but that was never communicated.

Extremely unprofessional and dishonest company stay far away!…read more Oak Trust Properties has been the most unprofessional company we've ever dealt with in owning a rental property in Charleston. Every time you try to call, you're told the property manager is "in a meeting" and to make matters worse, they don't even have a proper phone system that allows transfers. You're left sitting on one line with no help and no answers. We sent multiple emails to staff and even the owners with no response. The lack of follow-through and communication is beyond frustrating, especially when all we wanted were basic updates on our tenant and lease renewal. The final straw was when they tried to charge us for a lease renewal they never completed -- then claimed they did! Absolutely unacceptable. Dishonest, unreliable, and vindictive because we chose to leave their company. If you value professionalism, integrity, and communication, look elsewhere. Managing a property is stressful enough Oak Trust will only make it worse. Stay clear!

We have had some bad experiences with other realtors in Charleston through the original purchase of…read moreour home, and when we first tried to rent it out 2 years ago. When we switched to Miler for our property management the experience was completely different. I could not imagine having better people to work with. Maia, our property manager rented our home out within a week, and kept us informed of everything that was going on every step of the way. Every phone call we made was returned promptly and more often than not she called us to let us know what was going on before we have to call and ask. We had the home on the rental market for almost 2 years after my husband finished his enlistment in Charleston, and we moved home 4 hours away. After the 2 years of renting the home out and the incredible tax increase since it is was no longer our primary residence, we needed to list the home for sale this Spring. Transitioning the home onto the sales market was the smoothest experience I believe possible since Miler offers property management and sales agents. Jennifer went above and beyond to make sure the house looked the best it possibly could for every single showing, even going so far as to wrangle the difficult tenants dogs during showings before they moved out so other agents could show the house. She did everything she could to get prospective buyers in and make sure the showings went well. She called us to let us know about every showing and to give us feedback about each one. She negotiated us a great offer that allowed us to repay our loan and get the house off our plate. Even going so far as to decrease her commission to help us break even. It is hard work like that that proves this company is in it for the people more than the money. It is a wonderful business, that is ran well and successful because of the way they treat their clients. You can't make everyone happy, because not everyone has realistic expectations, and they aren't always going to give you the full story, or even one that makes sense based on the other reviews I have read, but I can tell you as someone who has both rented and is selling a home with this company, there are no better people to work with. I have worked with 3 other agencies in the area, and no one will put themselves in their client's shoes, or do half the things that these agents do. Even speaking with other family members they are shocked and amazed and how far above and beyond our agent went for us. I truly cannot say enough how grateful I am for this company and its agents, Jennifer in particular. If you are buying, selling, or renting, give this company a chance. Call realtors in the area and see which one is the first to actually answer the phone and show you immediately how hard they will work for your business.

We rented from Miler properties for several years. most questions asked about maintenance would be…read morereplied with "I'm out of office" by Susan Dugger. We had an issue with the A/C going out during the summer. Several calls to the emergency maintenance line went unanswered. Three days later we were told that no one was available to answer, it was not a holiday weekend. It took a full week before we had A/C again with a 6 month old living with us. On move out, we cleaned and took multiple photos of the house in better condition than when we moved in. Susan Dugger took over a month to send a check for the security deposit. They took over $700 for "cleaning, mounting a blind and holes repaired in walls." I provided evidence to the contrary and they took more than another month to get back to me with no evidence as to why they took that money other than a basic email say sorry we she GOT BACK IN TOWN AGAIN. DO NOT USE MILER PROPERTIES. They will ignore you until it's time to steal your money from you.

I like the fact that they thoroughly screen applicants prior to renting, making sure the person is not only trustworthy, but can afford the rent. Anytime my rental property needs maintenance, they have contractors available and provide me with estimates. They're easy to get a hold of and I've built a great relationship with them. Also, they provide me with notices about tenants leaving and are able to get someone moved in soon after. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the service they have provided me and will continue to rent my property through them.

Our buddy recently hired James & Co. as property managers for his home when he moved cross country…read morewith the military. Since he had to move quickly, my husband and I helped by getting the house ready for renters. James & Co. told us to provide quart sized cans of paint for each painted room, once that was done, they said "Oh no! You need to paint the whole house white!!" My husband made arrangements to get inside to paint, they threw a fit about having to open the house up twice in a morning. When he arrived with white paint, they said "Oh no! You need to paint the whole house brown!." They haven't shown the house to potential renters (it's been on the market a month), and when another friend called to inquire about renting, he never received a call back!! These people either don't know what they're doing, or they're taking extreme advantage of our military. Either way, I know we won't be dealing with them in the future. I encourage you to avoid them too!!!!!
