1 star is to high for this atrocious company. 3 months of complaining about the ac not working and all they have done is recharge it and call it good. We have been stuck with utility bills over 3x what they normally are and they refuse to properly fix the ac. It has consistently been around 80 degrees in our apartment and i am now in the process of a lawsuit for neglect. God knows i wont get my deposit back after i move out after reading all the other reviews, when we moved in the apartment had a mile long list of things to fix and the agent told us they would send someone out to fix them immediately

As a real estate investor, working with CJ has been like giving a glass of water to a person coming from hell. We were with our previous property management company for 3 years and it was a nightmare.
We have been working with CJ Real Estate for 7 months and they have completely transformed our experience of investing in Kansas City.
CJ Real Estate is a remarkable property management company. They have made our renovations streamlined, they have exponentially increased our leasing rate, they have filled up our vacancies at lighting speed WITHOUT compromising on their leasing criteria.

NEVER RENT HERE!! As a current tenant, I would never rent from a company like this ever again. Terrible customer service, 0 communication skills (which, from reading other reviews it's good to see that I'm not the only one) and they are liars on top of everything.
For the past 3 years I have lived here and complained about the literal forest that is my back yard. Before the lease was even signed, one stipulation was that these trees be trimmed/removed. The agent agreed! One year rolls around and it never happens so my husband takes a stab at it, which he shouldn't have to! The

We have lived in the CJ property for about a year and a half. The home is decent, you can occasionally hear neighbors through the walls, but that's what we expect from a duplex.
The company itself is a joke. On multiple occasions they've tried to charge us various charges. From not having the water turned on in our name by move in to late rent... Every time we've had our receipt to dispute and they do take it off "oh we're sorry, not sure why that's on there" Sure..
Now, with a maintenance issue (on a Sunday no less) there is absolutely no way to make contact

CJ Results Estate managed 6 rental units on my behalf over a two year period.
The Good: They return calls within a day and are always kind.
The Bad: I had numerous tenant complaints that were not resolved in a timely manner. The complaints ranged from broken air conditioning units to bed bugs. Many of the issues required an immediate response, but were sometimes not address for several days, even weeks. Several tenants contacted me directly and requested I utilize a different management company as they felt these issues had not been addressed efficiently or satisfactorily.

If I could get 0 stars I would. Took our entire deposit then charged us 136 more for "cleaning." 500$ of which was to paint the walls. The paint they gave us did not match or was dried up. Charged us 200$ to clean out an unfinished basement that was empty since day 1. Their maintenance team was horrible and nothing was ever fixed in a timely manner. Do not recommend. The units are cheaply built and we heard our neighbors constantly, who were families and were not loud whatsoever.

Horrible reputation as property managers and if you make appointments with them to view a rental....9 times out if 10 they will cancel on you the night before. Good luck if you go thru these people....NIGHTMARE. if you've already been victimized, I suggest filing an online BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU complaint.

After applying and waiting for 2 weeks to hear back about my application, I received an approval letter with no instructions on where or how to pay the deposit. Ryan was my agent and he was prompt at responding to emails and getting the information that I needed. After telling him that I was unclear on where or how to pay the deposit he said he would have someone call me. I waited. two days later I decided to try to figure it out for myself after having reservations as to whether or not I really wanted to rent from them. I figured out how to pay the deposit and sent the confirmation to Ryan. At

Never rented from these people, never will. After submitting my SO and my application we get stuck with an agent who cancels the showing appointment the day of because the tenants still live in the duplex CJ Real Estate was trying to rent out from underneath them, stalls in processing our application, never checked our credit reports, and never contacted the apartment complex I lived in to verify the information given to them. They're just in it to collect the application fee of $40 per adult plus the $3-4 online processing fee. Scam artists.

The staff have been very rude and misleading with us. Would not recommend renting a property managed by them. I called them about the process for moving out early when I started shopping to buy a home and they said I just needed to give 60 days notice and I would only be responsible for utilities until it had a new tenant or my lease was up. With that in mind, I put an offer on a house and then called to let them know when I was planning to move out. It took forever to get in touch with someone this time and when we finally did they said that the person I spoke to told me wrong and I would be responsible

If I could give them 0 stars I would. They are the worst property management team out there. I wish their corporate office could see how much their staff has them losing money. They do not take responsibility for anything and they do not care for their customers at all. They will not email you back whats so ever...you have to bombard them with hellos??? They also will do everything to make it to wear they can keep your deposit. The upkeep on the property was horrendous. I was embarrassed to have family and friends come over because the property looked so trashy (was not like this with previous

I just returned from viewing one of their listed properties and I was astounded at the horrible condition. The property is located at 22 Glen Arbor rd kansas city Mo. 64114. The entire place has a strong dog urine smell and have never been cleaned. Abandoned furniture as well as appliances from the previous renter. All the utilities were off so no way to check mechanicals. CJ Real Estate wasted my time & was pressuring me to apply. I would not trust them with any personal information. I wanted to post this review to warn others so they don't fall prey to these obvious slumlords. I

If I could rate this lower than 1 star I would.
Their office turn over rate is very high and I would talk to one person about my problems and the next week a new person was working there.
It took them over 6 months to fix my broken porch, that was broken before I moved it AND was broke by one of their mowers. The only way they ever did anything was if I threatened to call someone myself and just withhold that amount of money from their rent.
Poor communication to tenants. They would email only one of my roommates and one of the previous tenants whose name wasn't even on the lease anymore

BEWARE! I agree with one previous reviewer...as long as nothing breaks and you don't ever need to speak with a person, you will be fine. If your air conditioner breaks and it's 90 degrees in your unit...too bad. Figure at least 5-10 days to fix. Oh, and if you need out of your lease early, plan on VERY high utility bills after you've already vacated the property. I know like it seems they may be your only option, but be careful. This company is not to be trusted!

Don't do it... 2 years in a house that need work done all the time. NO air for 10 days first year. Second year had to put in new unit. They do not fix anything. You can't go on line and request them to come to fix anything. Just use another company you will be happier... 1050.00 for two years and something broke every month. But house was nice. Kids played on your front porch !!!!!!! Neighbors drank all night... 14 kids between 4 houses.....
