Most unprofessional property management company I have ever dealt with. I applied to rent a property through Select 1 Realty. Based on the qualifications listed on the website I qualified. I called the day prior to submitting my application and spoke to Deborah. She was extremely rude and short with me over the phone. Then someone named Sandy contacted me regarding my application. She stated that she would be refunding my application fee, because she was not going to rent to me, but that she had not even ran my application. When I asked why, she then changed the rental qualifications to make it

My experience with Deborah at Select 1 was not good. She acted strange and unprofessional. She was unaware of the condition of the rentals we were visiting and made excuses for why the properties were not well maintained. She also made comments and promises about updates which turned out not be true. It was odd and made me cautious about renting from them.

I contacted Select1 Realty to manage my properties. Deborah responded immediately and answered all my questions one by one, so far she is the best professional property manager I found in contra costa. I would not hesitate to give her my properties to manage when the time comes to replace my current property manager.

This place doesn't even deserve 1 star. These unprofessional rude people all need to be fired especially Deborah Bailey. She moved me into an apartment knowing it had ROACHES. It's had roaches before I moved in on the first of April 2021, she later told me that last exterminator came out in September 2020. She does not respond to my text messages or emails. She also does not return my phone calls when I call. I have a one year old daughter that she knows about and this is no way to live! I have NEVER lived with roaches and this is my first apartment on my own but It's disgusting

Unprofessional and misleading rental postings. I applied for a home( on Portsalon in Antioch) I found listed after reading the screening criteria I applied.

I was contacted the next day by Sandy requesting my credit score and telling me she has several pending applications. Which are highly qualified and she will be refunding my application fee because the owner wants someone with good credit!

I informed her that the rental criteria did not state a minimum credit score! She said they require a 700 Interesting it's higher then the requirements for a mortgage.

There was a few problems with the property i rented with Select1. There was many cobwebs, laundry was old and not work sometimes, fan inside one of the bathrooms wasn't working, dishwasher was dirty, etc. I had to move out because the tenants upstairs when I was still there were really loud. Foot stomps and fighting. We were threatened also. I was charged around 30 dollars for missing an appointment which I never agreed to and couldn't make it because of school and traffic (oakland to antioch). The lady wasn't too understanding because her office is located like 10 MINUTES away from

Horrible people running this company. The gardener they use is a liar. The gardener will continually break sprinklers and blame the tenant. They never fixed the sprinklers damaged by their gardener, which in return killed the lawn, which we were blamed for. They are very manipulative. Save yourself the headache and stay far far away from them. Also trying to pay rent at their office in the Antioch is scary (not a safe area).

After moving out, my deposit was given back to us and they charged us for things that we did not have control of. They charged us for putting in a whole brand new sod in the front yard. When we first moved in the grass was barely even there in the first place and after 2 months of heavy summer heat already damaged the grass area. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! I warn you now if you use this company, you will not be happy with their service and once you move out you can say good bye to your deposit. As they will figure out any little thing to charge you and keep all of your hard earned money!!! Out

I'm sooo disappointed on Select 1 I just received my deposit back and it was a slap on the face!!.. from 3k deposit I only got back $35 dollars really??... I left the house way more better than it was given to me at the beginning, I have pictures and wrote everything on the check list why is it that they took my money... Please don't use this company they are not honest!.. Even the owner of the house went one time to fix the kitchen lights because Select 1 was charging him way too much so he decided to fix it himself!..PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE ME ADVICE IF I CAN TAKE THIS TO COURT!..

On Monday 11/1218, I set up a time with Deborah Bailey to view property. As my son and I showed up she was speaking to another couple viewing the same property. From what I observed she was very helpful and courteous with the first couple even handed them a paper application. When it was my turn to ask questions her demeanor immediately changed as if she had to go all of a sudden and couldn't answer any questions. She immediately tried to convince me that other property will be up for rent as if this one was already taken. I asked her for a paper application which I saw her give to the other

I can't say enough good things about Select 1. Before finding them, we suffered through an uncaring property management company and absolutely horrific tenants for years. Since hiring Select 1, and specifically Deborah Bailey, we have had nothing but good experiences. The first tenants they found us, ended up being long term and low maintenance and I can't tell you how much we appreciate that! It is so refreshing to find a company that cares not only about the landlords, but also about the tenants and the property itself!

Was a model tenant. Spent 400$ having place cleaned after move out then touched up myself. They still charged me for petty things stating there was a spot inside a drawer and "fingerprints " on the stainless fridge. Which were not there when I left. The office manager is very rude and not helpful.

I can with a doubt, say that Deborah Bailey is the most amazing property manager I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

Deborah showed me quite a few properties and each time, her patience astounded me. She was always accommodating of my time, and never once made me feel rushed.

When the house i wanted, didn't come through, she was the ear I texted for help, and help she did. She found me a house in our price range that would have worked for us, until the moment I brought in my deposit. At that very moment, the house i had been hoping for all along, called and offered it to me.

All i can say is that, they are the best. Whatever you need they are quick and very responsive. They make you feel that you are important. They are on top of everything.

Thank You for everything!

OWNERS BEWARE

I say this with discretion, sincerity, compassion, and deep thoughtfulness to any owner looking for a Property Management Company, to take care of their home, and find good tenants. Do not use this company. I do not need to share my personal experiences in detail, as it's pretty similar to what was already written. I will however add, Horrible customer service, rude staff members, and very unprofessional business practices. I feel obligated as a responsible renter to share a message with you Mr./Ms. Owner.

Please look elsewhere or a Prop Mgmt Co. this company is very painful

I'm looking for an agent. I came across this yelp page to read reviews. I was fairly satisfied and ready to give them a call until I read the response left by the owner on Mikenya (check spelling) one star review.

The owner did not even attempt to listen to the complaint or address the rude comments made by his employees. His post reflects an us vs them attitude and poor customer service.

I will not be contacting them.
