North Bloomfield Properties

Great company, repairs are done quickly at a fair price, and reports have always been on time. more

I am one of the homeowners that foolishly allowed this company to charge me to funnel money through theirs hands only to receive a sub-standard product. I would advise anyone looking for a property management company to run as far and as fast from this company as possible. We were assured that the tenant being put in our rental home would be properly vetted. The tenant had both a bankruptcy and a foreclosure on her credit. The maintenance company used by NBP gave us an estimate of $600 for a repair that cost us $35 to do ourselves. Direct quote from the owner of the company, ”You have a good tenant I would hate to see how you handled a normal/regular tenant.” I offer this review with my tenant’s payment record: Failed to pay the water bill for 9 months and was forced to pay to avoid eviction. Failed to pay the month of February rent and was late with March rent had to be served with a 10 day notice to pay or leave, tenant paid. Failed to pay May and June’s rent again served with a 10 day notice to pay. Failed to pay. Went to court and reached an agreement to remit past due rents and water bills. Tenant failed to comply with any part of the agreement and was served a 24 hour eviction notice. The tenant paid to avoid being thrown out within 24 hours. This is what NBP considers a “good” tenant? The owner of the company told us that he does not see why we are upset with his company because the tenant has paid in full. She has paid in full but only after legal action was taken and she was facing a 24 hour eviction notice. Additionally, NBP has not yet paid us the back rent owed so that we can use it to pay our house payments that are behind due to this tenant’s failure to pay for the last three months (May, June, July). We were told we must wait until August to receive the past due money owed to us. Per our court order, the tenant is required to be out by August 1. We have requested that NBP contact the tenant to arrange for us to inspect our house so we can prepare for whatever repairs will be needed. We were told by the owner of NBP that NBP will not send their representative to the house to accompany us for an inspection because WE have created a contentious situation. He also states that the tenant is maintaining the property. How does he know that? Why is NBP trying to dissuade us from doing an inspection on our own property? Per our signed contract we have every right to do one as well as having the right to show the property 30 days before the end of the lease. In our experience, this company has not represented us well. They have made this process extremely stressful and difficult and then blamed us for it. more

HORRIBLE COMPANY. AVOID THESE INCOMPETENT JERKS AT ALL COSTS. You WILL be very disappointed if you use them. This company does not seem to get that they are a providing a service - or rather a huge DISservice. more

Unprofessional. If you are considering renting a property from north bloomfield properties i highly recommend that you find an alternative option if at all possible. more

very unprofessional. Always hidden fees. They never get back with you and when you finally reach them they don't do what they are paid to do. I went all the way to the owner about the fees and and Fixing the same problem over and over, talking to him was a waste of my time. It is more of a headache to hire them than to rent your place your self! can't wait for this contract to end! more

Unprofessional management company! All they are good for is collecting the rent, they don't return calls or make repairs. The owner is always to blame for any and everything when you do get them to return calls! We have even called the state to just get repairs made. I would never recommend anyone live in a home that they manage, you will be ignored unless your rent is late then you can't get rid of them. You would do better to work with the owners yourself! more

Brandi and her maintenace team Have fine services, they showed up quickly and fixed the problem proptly. Your quick responses and resolutions are excellent and I greatly appreciate it!!! more

North Bloomfield Properties had such fast prompt service, I cant imagine being a tenant for any othe company! more

I had a Regular maintenance issue and it was fixed so quickly! It makes me feel good to know that if it was a real emargency that it would have been taken care of even faster than that! more

As a homeowner everything appeared to start out great. They got the house rented, and signed a lease. Then they informed me that the tenants had 3 large dogs and smoked. They didn?t take in any additional deposit. Their response was, ?I thought you wanted this rented out quickly?? I did, just not at the detriment of my house. more

Without getting into the facts of my own experience, I will submit that this office is as dysfuntional and unprofessional as it gets. It's ""agents"" are inept, do not return calls, and do not have your best interests in mind. I would never recommend this company to a person I want to remain friends with. more

We would like to tell you thank you about how we are lucky to have Ms. Beth and Mr. Bill and all their professional care! more

We were very impressed with your professionalism and getting us a tenant so quickly, we have already told others about you...be expecting lots of calls! Pros: Fast tenant placement! more

I appreciate all the things that you have done for me throughout the past year, you have been great to rent from! Pros: accomodating and easy to deal with! more

This place is so horrible!!! You never get any phone calls back, you will be promised anything you want but never recieve it! I have gotten some many bills from DTE and Consumers regarding bills that they have never paid! Stay away from this place!!! more

I have rented for 7 years and never once had a problem getting a deposit back until I worked with these folks. To be honest I would have rather stayed in a hotel and paid 2 times as much than go through what these folks have put me through. I hope all who read this decide to look into an alternative. Its just not worth the hassle you will without a doubt encounter if you work with North Bloomfield Properties. Pros: If your the landlord I am sure its great Cons: If your a tenant renting you better look elsewhere more

We just moved out of one of your properties and truly enjoyed our stay.. more

This company was absolutely horrific in their ability to manage rental properties. They put an unemployed tennant into my very nice property. The tennant missed the first month's rent. They did not send out the 7 day notice for almost 1 1/2 months and then they did not follow through on the eviction, which took more than 4 months. By the time all was said and done I lost more than $5,000. because of the incompetence of this organization. If you list your propery with thes people prepare to be fleece royally. This organization is a joke. Al, the owner is a bigger joke and a liar. Pros: One of the worst companies I've ever worked with Cons: They did virtually everythisn wrong. more

It has been almost a year since this company rented out my home, and I would like to let everyone know how happy we are. The leasing process was stressfree as has been the whole process. It is a relief knowing someone cares about both the owner and the leasee. Thank you. Pros: Fast vacancy filling more

My husband and I have lived in a home managed by North Bloomfield Properties for two years now. Luckily for us, the owner cares about his property, or all of our complaints and concerns would have been ignored. We contacted the company many times to discuss concerns, many times we had to make multiple phone calls. Eventually the owner of our property would call us back to discuss the issue. My understanding of the agreement was that the management company, who is in state while the owner lives out of state, was to deal with concerns so they could be met immediately. After contacting the company and being ignored one too many times, we resorted to always calling the owner of the home. I am not sure how much he paid them to manage his property, but it was a definite waste of money. Soon after moving in, my husband and I found out we were expecting a baby. We decided toward the end of my pregnancy that we would like to remain in our house until my husband's job here was complete - another two years. In the spring of 2008, we discussed signing a new lease for another two years. The agent representing our property drafted an lease with incorrect dates. We signed and returned the lease, which we take responsibility for not reading over it more carefully. The agent noticed the mistake and sent a new lease with the correct dates which we promptly signed and returned. In the summer of 2009 we were informed by the owner of our home that his copy of the lease stated we would be leaving at the end of the summer while we believed we would be living in this home for one more year. We contacted North Bloomfield to discuss the issue and were told that while they had a copy of the correct lease, they only had a blank copy (our signed one was not filed), and therefore, the lease would terminate in 2009. My husband called to speak with one of the office managers, Melissa, and was either put on hold for extended periods of time or told she was on a phone call that would keep her busy for a long period of time. My husband finally called once and Melissa accused him of harassing her because of the continued phone calls. All we were trying to do was figure out what to do since our world had been turned upside-down. When my husband asked to speak to her supervisor, he was told no. If we wanted any further contact with them, our lawyer would have to contact them. We are now in search of a new home. Our one main requirement - that it not be managed by North Bloomfield Properties! Pros: At this time I can't think of any Cons: Lost or Misplaced Records, Poor Customer Service more
