Bennett-Shellenberger Realty

I LOVE Bennett Shellenberger Realty. We started renting with them last year and now that house is being sold. They were able to find us a new house to move into and the transition has been easy. They always call or text back quickly. I don’t think I ever want to rent from anyone else!

It’s a well know fact that customers service should be the number one priority. Well if you are looking to rent from here I would run as fast as you can. A few weeks ago I was looking at this house I found on Zillow. When I called I got the owner who sounded excited to rent the house. I just had to wait for the property management to get a few things done. Here comes in Jerry the manager. When I first called he told me the monthly price and the down payment for the house. Then he asked what I did for a living. When I told him he said you probably can’t afford this house. As if I just go around looking to rent a house out of my budget. Next Jerry called back to tell me that the down payment would be more with no reason. Then after putting in the application I called Jerry to ask how it was all going. He said you are good to go just have to sign a lease and your the house is yours. The next day Jerry called back and said that my credit was the worst credit he has ever seen and I had several evictions on my credit. Well I can’t say I have the best credit but it wasn’t what he had said. Plus Iv never been evicted ever from any apartment. Never the less this is probably what Jerry told the owner and I was denied. Most property management places will keep the application fee and would be happy to help you find a place. But if you don’t have a 800 you aren’t good enough for Jerry and he will lie his way to get you denied. This had been a huge hassle because when he told me I was good to go I got a check made out and started packing up my house. Well now I have to wait 30 days for the bank to put that money back in my account and live in a house of boxes.
