I tried really hard to work with Ethel Kidd in the year and a half that I rented from them, but the experience was a nightmare from the start. My boyfriend and I signed our lease in December 2019 with a February move in date, meaning they had 2 months to make sure everything at our place was in order and ready to go. When we moved in we quickly realized we have no power. The electricity was turned on within a few days, but the gas did not. We were unable to cook meals in our kitchen or take hot showers. This lasted for THREE weeks, so we began contacting Entergy and that was the only reason it

Dawn Leslie, owner of Ethel Kidd Real Estate, was wonderful. She has a great way with making things work out between seller/buyer, with everyone walking away happy. In times of COVID Our home sold quickly at full price, which by the way two other realtors in the area priced our home MUCH lower....not appreciating the value of the home and not knowing how to "sell it". We are very thankful , it takes a special person to get the deal done and to appreciate a historical home's value. I would recommend this long

Avoid Ethel Kidd Real Estate managed properties at any cost. I've lived in one of their properties for over 2-years. Of that time I was never late with rent. They are so archaic they only accept cash or money orders. Of the 2-years I could only use the courtyard about 9 months. The rest of the time it was trashed with construction equipment and simple projects that should take weeks but took months.
I literally had to camp or travel or stay with friends most of the time. When I asked for a discount for my $1000 rent they said the courtyard was a luxury although it is the only access

2 stars for location.
I was left alone, which is important to me, but if anything was wrong, I could forget anything being done about it.
My roommate has a bacterial infection From the black mold in the apartment...enough said.
Paid almost $1k for a small studio in the city, but the neighborhood was great.
I paid rent late a few times, and they were okay about it.
Do not expect to get your deposit back.... apparently they're notorious for this. No one would even schedule a walk through with me.
Use them if you're absolutely desperate, but be don't expect professionalism
