Wow. This broker is kinda the worst I've ever "worked" with. He immediately contacted me to view an apartment I was interested in, and was very responsive initially. As soon as I asked him to tell me the exact location of the apartment so I could plan my trip there, he stopped responding.
After 3 email attempts with no response, he finally told me the address of the apartment 15 minutes after the set time we had planned to meet. He also told me the "right side of the building is open for you to check out". Huh? I'm just going to randomly wander into an apartment building in the hood and view this WITHOUT the broker or a super? Are you crazy? Sounds like a trap to lure women into getting raped or robbed.
It's very possible that Joe himself or a super would be there to show me the apartment, but his cryptic messages and inability to respond to simple emails left me disenchanted. Thanks for wasting my time, Joe! I was about 90% sure I wanted to rent that place, so you just lost a sale.
I asked Joe to meet me after 7, and he responded that he needed to meet me at 7. I left work early, waited outside the building for 15 minutes, called him twice, and he never showed up or responded. My time was completely wasted.
I contacted him and we set up a time for me to view an apartment. That morning, I reached out to him to confirm our appointment, and after asking what building it was I wanted to see, he never showed up to the building.
Stars dont represent my experience since we didnt have anything but email contact. That however was prompt and clear so my guess would be that the whole process would have been the same. cheers
I sent Joe a text regarding an apartment and he responded in a timely manner by letting me know it was already rented. I asked him if he had any more like it and I never heard back. Ever.
I then saw the exact same apartment listed over the next several days every day. In the past week I have seen the exact photo's of the same apartment being used to advertise other apartments. In different areas.
What's the deal Joe?
I also contacted Lang realty and NONE of the apartments listed on their site were available for lease. The woman on the phone explained this by saying that it 'takes a while' for them to update their site. I smell a rat
Sent him a message and he responded in a timely manner. After seeing the apartment, I decided to apply. After two weeks had gone by, I hadn't heard from him AT ALL. He stopped responding to my phone calls, text messages, and e-mails. I had to go out of my way to the leasing office and request to work with someone else (who was very helpful, BTW) only to find out that they needed more paperwork from me. This broker made the experience much more frustrating than it needed to be.
