GBAs a tenant, avoid 2 stars because paying rent online is nice (though expected of a property management company at this point). Besides that, poplar is generally terrible to work with from a tenant perspective. They are slow to respond to work orders, hard to coordinate with, and nearly impossible to talk to on the phone. I personally will avoid renting from a poplar managed home in the future.

GBNEW NAME, SAME PROBLEMS. New name, same problems. Onerent now changed their name Poplar (maybe to run from their bad reviews?). They outsource to the Philippines but give their call center employees no authority to make decisions are get things done. Been waiting on deposits to be rurturned for weeks now despite havign switched companies and making several requests. GIVE BACK THE DEPOSIT. Delay tactics similar to extortion.

GBQuick response and seamless interactions They took over the leasing management. Renewal was timely, easy, and stress free. I've had a couple of maintenance issues, they responded extremely quickly. On that note, the owner has always been prompt and considerate as repairs are ultimately up to the owner. I saw a lot of complaints in these reviews that really have nothing to do with the management. If you feel you aren't treated fairly, I suggest you hire a real estate agent when rental hunting and assign them as your mediator. Your experience will change dramatically with a realtor as they typically screen their clients first and landlords and prop management companies know this.

GBTrash Company and Service Same as everyone else. cannot get a response. They confirmed rent increase in November but somehow collected incorrect rent for 3 months. No one wants to pay me the back rent. Breach of contract.

GBThey give the owners to much leverage They give the owners to much leverage. Poplar is managing the rental property on their behalf, so the owner should only have a say so in, whether or not they agree to allow a tenant to renew a lease. But Poplar allows the owners to determine the renewal increase amount, which in our case our owners want to go up $300 for another year lease which is ridiculous. Poplar should determine the increase rates based on each states guidelines. Otherwise they have not been too bad to deal with.
