Review content:
My experience with Davis-Paul wasn't as bad as the rest of you who cared to share your stories. There were some maintenance issues within the building, but what buildings don't have them? I felt safe in my apartment, my maintenance requests were taken care of, my landlord was super sweet, and I got my deposit back. I paid my rent on the first, and never bothered to use up the grace period the offer (up until the 5th). The only complaint I have was that the response time wasn't as fast as having direct contact with the owner. As far as I know, Davis-Paul manages somewhere between 3,000 and 4,000 units (What I heard from the man who answers the phones). So realizing that there are probably lots of maintenance calls coming in, I understand how it could be difficult to track all of them. I've worked in management before, and it's not an easy job. You're stuck in the middle of trying to please both tenants, and owners of the buildings. It's hard to convince an owner that he needs to spend $20,000 to fix a leaking roof, when he can spend $500 and do a minor fix on the unit that is leaking. Often times, the owners of these buildings are trying to sell the building for a profit, and spending thousands of dollars repairing something big, is not in their budget. Luckily, the building I lived in, was not in one of these situations, but they do exist. That being said, I sympathize with those of you who have had bad experiences... But mine was great. Thanks Davis-Paul!
Pros: Full deposit, friendly staff, flexibile
Cons: Slightly slow response time
