GBAbsolutely RUN. This is not a property management company, this is a call center with no follow through Absolutely RUN. This company is a SCAM doing the absolute bare minimum to keep collecting fees. Majority of the company is based in the Philippines and does not know the first thing about property management or the local markets they're operating in. Unfortunately, they purchased my PM and I wanted to give them a chance to iron out the kinks before running, but this is a dumpster fire. Most of the bids I got from them were wildly over the top for the job needed, and they'd typically tell me they couldn't get an alternative bid. I've now learned that this is because so few respectable vendors will work with them after not being paid for jobs that the vendors who will work with them are not necessarily the A squad.. After approving a bid, I would have to follow up for weeks or even months to see if anything had been done (even for massively urgent hazardous issues.. which I'm positive caused a long term tenant to move out). Multiple times major items took so long to get started or to get an appropriate bid, I ended up having to handle it myself (ie. roof replacement, unit turns, etc.) You have to audit all of their accounting because inevitably late fees will change every statement, utilities are sometimes billed back (or not at all in the case of one of my properties.. resulting in ~$2000 in unpaid utilities), and god speed if you have a delinquent tenant. Reporting is terrible and full of errors, so if there is an issue, you won't find out til it's too late. The tenant screening process seems non-existent, and they have no problem blatantly lying to you (my final straw before finding new management). This company has lost me thousands. I've never posted a rant like this, but I feel very passionately about telling anyone who will listen to stay away from Poplar Homes / OneRent.

GBBeen renting with this janky company… Been renting with this janky company for 7 months & every month I’ve put in maintenance request for the same issues. THEY/ THE OWNER LITERALLY REFUSES TO FIX THE ISSUES!! WE HAVE NO LIGHTS IN OUR MASTER BATH!! Each month they send out different electric vendor hoping for a cheaper estimate.. we’ve had 5 different vendors come to “evaluate the problem” TF!!!! 7 MONTHS WITHOUT LIGHTS!!! THIS COMPANY IS TRASH!!!

GBLease Renewal Paul did a good job getting the lease renewal completed quickly. Thanks Paul! I would hope though that this process would be more automatic/ initiated by Poplarhomes rather than the owner having to reach out to move the process along. I was told this was supposed to be done within the 90 period before lease expires but No one reached out to me. I had to contact Poplarhomes myself.

ESWould give them a zero if I could Would give them a zero if I could! Absolutely incompetent and worthless management company. This enterprise provides such little value that I feel like I"m being robbed. Stay as far away from them as you can. They are unresponsive, inept, and disorganized. I wouldn't let them manage a lego house.

GBBen in Poplar Homes Accounting Does An Outstanding Job Ben in Poplar Homes Accounting does an outstanding job! He responds quickly and thoroughly and follows through to make sure his clients receive the type of service that they expect. As an example of how Ben responds, last month I was very critical of how Poplar Homes handled the rent transfer payment and told Ben I expected to receive this payment in 5 days or less. This month, with Ben’s follow through, the payment was received in two days! That’s great service, Thank you Ben!
