I am doing some research on management companies because I own property in Tucson.....if these reviews are to be believed-there are absolutely no good management companies in a city of over a million! \r
\r
I chose this company to write this because I have spoken with the staff and had several appointments with Susan and am considering using this company to manage my home. I have read reviews on almost all the management companies in Tucson and they all say the same thing. \r
\r
The way I see it-the only people who write these are disgruntled owners and tenants seeking to try and ruin these companies reputations. I know that Rathbun manages over 350 homes-and only 2 property owners seem dissatisfied-it seems the vast majority are perfectly happy with their experience. \r
\r
I was referred to Rathbun by a close friend of mine who has 12 homes in Tucson that Rathbun manages. She has nothing but great things to say about them, and they have been in business for over 35 years. I think the previous reviews are a joke-and I think that unless you call this company or any other for that matter, you should take these reviews with a grain of salt. Reading them irritates me because they all have similar complaints. I see it as owners who don't want to maintain their rental property (do they expect the management company to pay for regular upkeep?) and tenants who don't take care of their homes properly. \r
\r
This company in particular-their contract is a one page contact, easily understandable, outlining exactly what I am responsible for and what the management company is responsible for. \r
\r
I plan on using Rathbun Realty to manage my home when I move out. Plus-their advertising is outstanding (TV, internet, newspaper, etc...) and I feel confident they will rent my home quickly for market price.
Pros: Friendly staff, no phone trees, supeior advertising
