Keyrenter Property Management Richmond

Keyrenter Property Management Richmond

(14 reviews)

Three Chopt, Near West End

Two months into my partnership with KeyRenter, and I couldn't be happier…read more From day one, the team set clear expectations and followed through every step of the way. Communication has been consistent and proactive--especially during the transition from my previous property manager, which could have been complicated but felt seamless. My tenant can now easily pay rent online, I have full visibility into payments and disbursements through the owner portal, and--most importantly--her account is now current, which has been a long time coming. After 23 years of working with property management companies, this has been my best experience by far. Highly recommend.

Update in photos. To…read morethose in RVA who own a property with tenants OR to who are currently looking for rental housing: I retract every positive statement that I've ever made about my property "management" company, Keyrenter Property Management Richmond. TLDR version of what's below: they are unorganized, have very questionable business practices, do not communicate well internally, will relay mixed messages to both owners and tenants, and will 100% drop you as a client like a hot sack of potatoes when it's inconvenient for them to do their job. What started out as a seemingly great arrangement has turned into an absolute nightmare. On July 6th, I received notice that my tenant of three years was not renewing her lease again. That same day, I sent a very casual reply email to KeyRenter saying that I was contacting my realtor to discuss the POSSIBILITY of selling vs continuing to rent. On July 13th, without speaking with me or confirming anything AT ALL, I was contacted by the general manager, Jeanine, with the tenant CCed in the email stating that they had sent her deposit to me and that I was taking over property management effective immediately. This was just as I was going to Alaska for ten days, so the timing was terrible and created a massive amount of stress as I struggled to get in touch with them to resolve it. They had "assumed" that I was listing the property right away, so simply dropping the last month and a half of their contract was apparently protocol. They apologized when they realized their blatant error, but they left the tenant's deposit in my possession and just told me I'd be responsible for disbursing it with 45 days of the tenant moving out. Then, while I was busy trying to sell my Palmyra house and buy another in less than a month, my tenant contacted me to tell me she got a $600 water bill. I immediately contacted KeyRenter and filed an emergency maintenance request on the tenant's behalf. My tenant works long shifts and doesn't have a lot of down time to sit on hold with Richmond Utilities, so I called them, and after an hour and a half on hold, I was told that only my tenant could speak to them about the bill or schedule a time for them to come out to the property. Almost a week passed, and KeyRenter did nothing. I then asked them to send a plumber to the property preemptively in case there was a problem that could worsen over time. Three days later, KeyRenter replied and brushed me off, saying that Richmond Utilities would handle it. After a second week passed, I asked again, and they finally sent out a plumber. Fortunately the source of the problem was that the toilet was continuously running, which was an easy fix. However, that still left my tenant on the hook for both her $600 bill and also the second (likely) large water bill she'll receive for the two weeks that elapsed prior to the toilet getting fixed, since KeyRenter neglected to send someone out sooner as I requested. After that situation, they told me that I would need to conduct my tenant's move-out walkthrough and collect the keys. I do not live nearby, and these kinds of things are what I hired a property management company to handle (move-out walkthroughs are listed as an included service on their site). I reviewed the entirety of my contract, and I emailed back pointing out that these things were specified nowhere in it, again asking them nicely to do their jobs and let me know when they had it scheduled. One person, Mary, provided me with the date that KeyRenter would be conducting this; Jeanine then replied saying that KeyRenter would not be conducting one at all and that I must have misunderstood an automated email. I forwarded her coworker's (not at all automated) email to her. After that time, everyone else stopped responding, and I was unfortunately left to deal only with her. She has since been disrespectful, dismissive, and not at all concerned with the predicament she's left me to handle or the awkwardness and inconvenience she's created for my tenant. I'm filing complaints both with the franchisor and with DPOR, and I cannot wait for them to experience the levels of panic and stress that they forced me to endure since the beginning of July. Per their website and what the owner claimed when I hired them, "You want to work with a company whose corporate values are an extension of their personal values. This principle is what has led KeyRenter Richmond to become an industry leader in our area. Our success stems from treating you the way we'd like to be treated. We focus on values, ethics, customer service, client satisfaction, innovation, quality, and personal service that gets results. When you work with us, you get access to a team whose foundation is built on integrity, honesty, and accountability. We genuinely care for our clients and the community they represent, and that is reflected in our care and service." This is all nothing but a bold-faced lie; do NOT fall for it like I did, and steer clear.

Her professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail set the standard for what a property manager should be. If you're looking for someone to manage your property, you won't find a better choice. Lisa ensures that properties are well-maintained and that tenants are both comfortable and responsible in keeping the home in excellent, move-in-ready condition. The entire Cityscape Realty team is personable, responsive, and genuinely cares about both owners and tenants. Whenever maintenance was needed, the process was handled quickly and efficiently. During our time as tenants, our HVAC unit failed during a hot period. Lisa immediately stepped in to make sure we were taken care of, providing temporary cooling units until repairs were completed. That level of care made a huge difference for my family. What truly sets Cityscape Realty apart is their commitment beyond just property management. Lisa and her team went above and beyond by helping prepare my family and me for homeownership. Thanks to their guidance and support, we were ultimately able to purchase the home we had been renting. My family and I are incredibly grateful for the years of excellent service we received. Cityscape Realty is truly one of a kind, and we highly recommend them to anyone in need of real estate or property management services.

When we asked Mr. Downing to send someone out to fix it and they only fixed the broken glass and not the actual issue of the window falling out of the pane. Eventually he finally got someone to fix it and then charged us $115 to fix it even though it wasn't anything we did to make the window break and almost severely injured my roommate. Once our lease was up we get our partial security deposit and the price of the window was taken out (along with a lot of other minuscule charges that were ridiculous). We tried to contact him about this and he basically told us because we couldn't prove it wasn't our faults we were responsible, then never responded to us again despite reaching out many times. This company is terrible and you definitely should lease from other people to avoid terrible management.

The broker, Henry Downing, lied through his teeth from everything from the photos he took to us leaving our forwarding address. Be advised--stay away from this rental agency. We have heard from numerous people that they have had issues with getting their deposit back. We got 1/3 back of our $1500 deposit through small claims. Rent somewhere else... it's not worth it and their property is shoddy anyway.
