Cope Property Management

If you are looking to rent in Seneca SC then you might want to avoid this business. They are very rude and don’t care about prospecting renters. They will threaten to take you to small claims and put a hit on your credit over as little as $ 50. The lady I dealt with was extremely rude and short with me. After clarifying specific terms and rate with the representative over the phone, I made an appt. with them. I made it clear that I am coming in on a lunch break (can’t wait all day). There were no other customers in the office at the time but she kept me waiting for over 40min, while I looked over a lease that had nothing to do with what we had agreed upon over the phone. VERY UNETHICAL BUSINESS! I felt wholeheartedly that I was being scammed and jerked around.
Specific example: I asked about the rental rate of a 6 months lease over the phone, but when I showed up for the signing it stated a 1 yr lease for the rate I was quoted. When I questioned the lease she said that the 6 month rate would be an amount much great than discussed.
If a business defends their practices with comments like, «perhaps you didn’t ask the right questions» then I’m fairly certain they are untrustworthy and evasive.
I’ve been a renter with an impeccable rental history for over 12 yrs now, and there good property management companies and bad ones. This was my worst experience, and I didn’t even rent from them.
