Services
Q: How do I view one of your rental properties? Call first to make sure the key for the property you're interested in is available. In order to view a property you will to provide a $50 key deposit (cash) and a valid photo ID, and we will give you a key to view the property. As soon as you return the key, we return your $50 deposit.
The Fowler Company has been managing my property for a year and the service has been excellent. Since I live on the west coast it is important that my property management company is reliable and dependable for both myself as the property owner and my tenants. The team at Fowler is quick to respond to the tenants request and I am notified immediately as to what is going on.

I've rented from several property management companies, and although it seems they are all slumlords and treat you like second-class citizens, The Fowler Company is by far the worst in every way. The staff is rude, unprofessional, condescending and downright mean. Victoria is obviously not well educated, and not fit for her position in the company. Leah is nice enough, but still very rude and uncaring of your issues. I will NEVER rent from them again. As soon as my lease is up, I am out of here. If you have to rent from them, I would suggest you be ready to take control and fix any problems

DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY. If i could give zero stars I would. This is absolutely the worst company I have ever professionally dealt with in my life. They took over my lease from a previous company and ever since that happened it was horrible. They not only had horrible customer service, Victoria Shaw in particular, and were terribly difficult to contact, but they broke our lease agreement on MULTIPLE instances and then would not give our full security deposit back (even though there was no circumstance in which it should not have been given back). I would be taking them to small claims court

This is a twisted and unethical business.
I began renting through this company after my landlord switched through multiple rental agencies. This one takes the cake. I absolutely agree with Lucas's review...the people in the office refuse to handle questions, refuse to make things right, and make any small issue gigantic for anyone involved.
Let me also say: I paid my rent six months in advance, and I still had huge problems. Disappointing they didn't think of my repeat business.
My roommate turned out to be a huge hassle, and when I let the company know that my roommate had copied

Unfortunately, I rented a house through this company and although the owner of the house was a nice guy and easy to work with, The Fowler Company was just the opposite. On multiple occasions, the people at this office were very rude and condescending to me over the phone, namely Victoria Shaw. One time in particular I called and she was being very rude to me to the point where I had to tell her that she was being rude. She did not stop being rude after that until I told her that I didn't call her for her to be rude to me, I called to get information about our lease.

The Fowler Company walks a fine line between keeping the property and apts legal according to SC law and tenants rights. They will fix something-if you call and complain repeatedly for days. Upkeep of the building and outside area is dismal. I was there 2 years and the only time they clean/fixed the outside, including something so simple as raking the leaves, was right before the property owners (who live out of town) came to check on the place.
While the staff at the office is nice and friendly, don't take everything they say at their word. I rented an apartment from them and when I viewed

Ive dealth with this company since 2004. when i purchased this property from the fowler co, it was in total disrepair. mr fowler told me we didnt have to do anything not even paint it for these (people) because they will only destroy it. the one unit had a woman in there she was using kerosene because the heaters were not working. he also told me i didnt have to supply any appliances. well right before we were going to sign papers to take ownership i get a fax from his lawyer that i had to sign that i was aware there were several violations against the property from the city. he never told us of
