S&S put in terrible renters, did not provide proper inspections, and allowed our rental property to…read morebe trashed. We had to invest $40,000+ to repair the mess the tenants left. Then S&S kept $1,000 of the tenant's deposit that was owed to us and provided unintelligible accounting (they said they would need to charge us for an explanation of the accounting). We have multiple properties in AZ and recommend Rentals America instead for price and service. Rentals America charges $89 a month per property but S&S charges 10% of the rental amount. Plus S&S keeps any late fees that the tenants owe-- leaving, no incentive for on-time payment.

S & S Management has been a great company to work with. Sondra and Jana are amazing. I have worked…read morewith a lot of property management companies thru my career in water restoration, I have seen the good, bad and ugly. Sondra at S & S Management is the best. Always quick to respond, cares about the properties she and (they) are in charge of managing. Doesn't cut corners. After many projects together I haven't had a tenant or owner of a property say a bad word about Sondra, Jana or the company. When I am ready to rent or sell my property they will be the Company I choice.

We have lived in two Pillar communities--almost eight years in an older development, and currently…read morein a new mid-rise. Like many renters, we sign or renew leases based on the monthly rent and the facility's physical condition and Pillar Communities offers a range to choose from. But from our standpoint there is an over-riding factor, the onsite people who manage Pillar's properties. Kudos to James Mitchell, once our property manager and now a district manager and Tracy Goodhope who manages our current location. Their leadership and management skills are what really make a difference. Bob & Terry.

Now if they agree that I did use the Pillar Promise within the window, then that means they kept me in their apartment by delaying meeting with me. I shouldn't be rent-responsible for any duration after the fact. I am still speaking with them for a final resolution. Updates TBD.

They also try as hard as possible to avoid doing repairs and pest control. The dishwasher just stopped spraying water one day and they sent out a repair person to look at it.

I obtained Fort Lowell Realty in 2021 to manage my duplex. In the beginning, I had responsive and…read morecommunicative property managers. However, from 2021 to 2025 they went through four different managers. I would have one person, everything would seem to be going well and then abruptly they'd tell me someone else was being assigned. In 2025, I was again assigned a new manager, Andrea R. and communication significantly declined in comparison to other property managers I had been assigned. Emails would often go unanswered for long periods of time. Everything fell apart during a tenant move-out at the end of 2025. Before the tenant moved out, I provided the original lease and deposit records to Andrea so there would be no confusion. During the scheduled move-out, the assigned manager was unavailable, and the person who performed the move-out inspection took not one photo. I had to step in myself after tenant departure to take move-out condition photos because Fort Lowell staff didn't do it. The departing tenant was instructed to leave the keys unsecured in the mailbox after 5:30pm, which was very concerning because they didn't set up a lockbox for the tenant to securely leave the keys after the inspection. In addition to all of this, they issued a security deposit refund using rents from another unit to the tenant before fully reviewing damages. Keep in mind I held the deposits, but they did not consult me or provide me with the breakdown and obtain my authorization before refunding the money that I should have provided from the deposit account not use rents from another unit's tenant. To make matters completely insanely worse, the refund included money that had already been returned years earlier to a prior co-tenant! After I began formally requesting proper documentation and correction of the accounting, communication became worse. I sent a written notice under the contract giving them nearly a month to fix the issues. The problems were not fully corrected. After I terminated the agreement with proper 30-day notice, communication completely stopped, they did not follow up with me with requested documentation and stopped responding to my other unit's tenant they were still managing in this timeframe. I have still not received the complete documentation or the remaining funds in my owner account. I also later discovered that another tenant had gone six months without a properly executed lease renewal, and I was never informed. As a landlord, you need clear communication, accurate accounting, and proper handling of deposits. In my experience, those basic protections were not consistently in place. In addition, Fort Lowell's team is extremely unprofessional, completely ignoring clients, being condescending, and just displaying levels of incompetence I didn't know could exist. If you're a property owner, I would not recommend you use Fort Lowell. In fact, RUN!

I don't even know where to start, other than this has been the absolute worst experience I've ever…read moreencountered with renting a place. I've never written a negative review before, but this one is well deserved. We initially secured the condo via a signed contract back in 03/25 directly with the landlords after we toured the property and were assured the place would be fully furnished when we moved in on 01/12/2026. A few days before we were due to travel to AZ, I got a call from a property manager (Andrea Robidoux) who works for Fort Lowell telling us that she would managing the lease. I didn't think much of it at,the time, but right off the start, I had to pay a $50 background check fee that I didn't plan on given that I already had a signed contract, then I had to correct several items in the lease agreement including the correct exit date of 04/12/26, which I was told (by Andrea) that I had to accept 04/30/26 (even tho the original contract clearly states 04/12/26) and that any remaining days not used would be refunded but only to find out AFTER the fact (when I called Fort Lowell directly) that I would held liable for the entire month of April even if I gave a 30 day notice and left on the 12th of April. The real problems started when we met Andrea at the property on the scheduled move-in date. That's when we realized that this was Andrea's first time actually seeing the condo (we know this because she told us so and we had to direct her by phone where to go when she arrived at the complex). When we all walked into the condo, there was a VERY nasty odor (more of a stench) that can be smelled before you even enter the front door (it was so bad that Andrea had an asthma attack and had to go out to the balcony for some fresh air to finally breath normally). Then we saw all the obvious issues such as carpet stains, the dirt everywhere, the dust accumulation on all the windows/blinds, ceiling fans, fixtures, etc.. After Andrea left (without going over anything in the condo and without providing any documentation such as an emergency contact list, association Bylaws, move-in check list, etc.), we began to notice many more issues such as Clothes dryer not working properly (exhaust vent blocked), refrigerator ice maker not working, dishwasher drawer broken, fireplace not working, HVAC making LOUD noises and not working properly, the only couch was heavily stained from grease/dirt, tiles in both showers were stained black from grease/dirt, leaking kitchen faucet, cracked bathroom sink, stains and hair on bed headboard, broken vacuum cleaner, only 1 working smoke detector and none in the bedrooms (against code), anything that can be touched in the kitchen was sticky & very greasy, major dirt under all the beds & around night stands, trash in the garage, etc... Additionally, there were many missing essentials such as absolutely no started toilet paper, napkins, cleaning supplies, no complete sets of dishes/glasses, no bathroom waste baskets, no salt/pepper shakers, no broom/dust pan, no mop/pail, visible stains on some of the bed sheets and all pillows had stains and nasty odor, no mattress protectors or mattress pads or pillow protectors (disgusting and against code), no working vacuum, etc.. We contacted Andrea and she advised us and even encouraged us to go and purchase what ever we needed that was missing including a vacuum and assured us that we would reimbursed so we purchased only the necessities and we spent the next 4 days cleaning the place only to be told afterwards that we will NOT be reimbursed for the $200 vacuum and the response I got from Andrea was "it's not my vacuum". We have caught Andrea on many occasions either blatantly lying to us or she is REALLY forgetful because she's managing so many properties and can't keep track (I believe it's it a little of both scenarios) I even scheduled a meeting with Andrea and the landlords to review all the issues and request that they refund the cost of the vacuum, remove the $350 cleaning fee since we actually did most of the cleaning and provide a small reasonable reduction of the monthly rent because the property was not what was originally agreed upon, but they refused all of it. There were many, many more issues not mentioned here (all fully documented), but bottom line, Andrea (and Fort Lowell Management) didn't do diligence by verifying condition of condo prior to accepting to manage this property which resulted in us dealing with major issues in what was supposed to be our vacation time. Stay as far away from this company and specifically Andrea Robidoux. Additionally stay away from any properties owned by WILLOUGHBY INVESTMENTS AND SERVICES, LLC (landlords).

Unfortunately, my husband and I had the furthest thing from a five star experience with Cynthia…read more(Cindy). I'm at her at a property near the Biltmore that she has the property manager for, and she was accommodating as I was running late from a work meeting, which I appreciated. From the get-go, she was not friendly or pleasant at all, but honestly, that wasn't a big deal because I knew we wouldn't be interacting that frequently once the lease was executed. After applying for the property, she spoke with our references and immediately sent us a lease to sign. On that lease, the security deposit was more than what she told us, there was no outline of the utilities breakdown, a weird section calling out my husband's employment. We asked for clarity to which she responded "we will not be responding." And then she never answered a call, email or text again. Completely inappropriate and unprofessional.

I paid my rent on time every month. I took very good care of this house. I took care of it as if it were my own. I paid for many repairs. A new screen door that My dog had broke. Which i left in the garage. I had a painter come and fix all walls where there were scratches and damage. She charged me to repair. There was a shelf in the fridge broken and a handle to one kitchen cabinet broken upon my departure. Cindy Stockwell deducted over $1400.00 from my deposit. This was completely dishonest and excessive. She charged for cleaning of curtains because they had dog hair on them. Well when you allow 2 dogs to reside, sometimes there is dog hair after 3 ys. she charged for the screen. She said a cabinet in the bathroom was broke....this was a blatant lie. She said paint needed touching up. The house needed to be painted when i moved in which I have pictures of. She kept a $300.00 cleaning fee which i agreed to but that was not enough for her. I warn anyone who considers renting from her. not to. Really sad that people like her continue get away with this conduct. A real shame. Pls do not ever rent from her. You will be sorry like me. I have many witness to how the home was left including pictures and receipts but she would not even answer me when I contacted her and called out on this. Beware or you will be sorry!

My wife and I were looking to buy a rental property from out of state and Tiffany was prompt in getting back to me (always a great first start), we chatted with a couple agents but Tiff was easy to talk to and had a few strategies we liked out of the gate. And she was an ASU grad so bonus points! We narrowed in on a budget, cities, and showing strategy (we bought sight unseen due to how competitive it is right now so coming to view each property didnt make sense) so virtual tours were key. We put trust in her to look at the house, point out any red flags and give offer advise. She even talked us away from one house we wanted to offer on which is good in my opinion, that's why you hire someone with industry experience, so we really appreciated that it wasn't just ablut closing a deal. We had specific requirements so after looking for about a month, she ended up finding us a beautiful house in Tempe before it hit the market and negotiated with the seller to work out a deal. We 100% would not have got that house if it wasn't for her and may still be looking today. We're very happy, and finally met her in person on inspection day. We've since closed on the house and once we're in the market again she will be my first call. Joe and Lauryn P.s. the rest of her team is great to work with too, we met Tracy and Bridget. Keep up the great work!
