GBSomebody Need to be Fired I received a reply from my recent review. Apparently the person who called was just as inadequate to assist. her name is Guia or something close to that. After speaking with her I asked her name. When she replied I told her you are the same nasty condescending person that I spoke to before and I rather not speak to you again. My issue was the insurance charges. She asked me to send her proof of my insurance to which I replied I sent it twice. Our continued conversation revealed to me the insidious lack of communication between their entities which is why she did not have a copy of my policy. I decided that it was in my best interest to forfeit my claim of being overcharged so I would not behave unprofessionally. IH is by far the worst I have ever dealt with and liken our relationship to a bad marriage that needed to be over. There is a Class Action lawsuit against them for the very reason for my concerns. yet, they act like its nothing. I personally hope they fire Guia and hire someone who has both the sensitivity to deal with customers and the professionalism warranted by her position.

GBWatch out for Invitation Homes fees I have been with Invitation Homes since 2017. Very small issues but nothing major until now with the fees. They started sending us air vents, charging us 9.99 per month but we only get 4 a year. I signed a 2 year lease and on the second year they forgot that we agreed on a 2 year lease. Now what we agreed on is no longer valid and now they are charging each home 85.00 to get their internet package. I pay a lower cost and I have high internet speed which is what my company requires. Had they have me sign a 2 year lease this fee wouldn't be charged until 2025 lease agreement if I decided to stay. They are money hungry.

GBFORCED internet package-Can not opt-out on They are now starting a new policy of forcing tenants in my area who are renting with them to have a 85.00 internet bundle package added to the already increased rent! I have called and asked for them to remove this bundle package because I do not even watch cable but my leasing consultant said it was a nationwide roll out and she couldn't do anything about it. Why not actually ask the people who are renting from you all if that is a service they want first before FORCING THEM TO PAY IT and having not the choice to opt-out on it. THAT IS NOT RIGHT. This company rent gouges and they know it. This company already charges 9.95 for air filter fees, a smart home fee (thankfully I opted out on-AND WAS ALLOWED TO OPT OUT ON), and now they are FORCING you to add a 85.00 internet bundle package to your lease if you renew with them for the 2024-2025 year. I don't even watch cable! Why is this company forcing this on the tenants?! All it is, is more money in the pockets for this company. Stop rent gouging!

GBResearch Their Lawsuit! Invitation Homes took over Streetlane Properties during our last three months of our lease and we wish we got out sooner! The move-out appointment was insulting and they took almost all of our security deposit. Mind you, we had a month buffer to our new place and they still had the audacity to charge us for petty “damages” like a sink draining slow and gutters not being spotless. Beware that the utilities bill also doesn’t add up and you will be paying well above what you actually use (confirmed through us moving out a month early!) Please stay away from them, it’s not worth it.

GBStay away Stay away! Bad management and most likely fake reviews. Don't believe the positive reviews you see for these people. Google a few of the names of the reviews followed by "Invitation Homes". You will be surprised at the number of people that give 5 stars that have the same First name Last initial that WORK AT Invitation Homes. I am currently in a dispute with them for overcharging me over $350. Their response is to stonewall and ignore you. I am currently dealing with them through lawyers, so I will leave out details here. Some of the other issues: - It took me 5 months to get a tree that was visibly dead on my property removed. Over 15 maintenance requests that were denied. Each time with a new reason. We had a tree guy come out and he said, "I would not live in this house at the moment with this tree". Did they care? Nope. It took me countless requests and threats of legal action to get them to remove it. - Their maintenance is the WORST. It took 3 months to fix a dishwasher. - Maintenance broke my roof and never fixed it. - FEES! Oh my, the number of fees is just crazy. Whatever price they advertise, add $200 minimum on top of that a month. Invitation Homes is owned by Blackrock. Blackrock is the largest single-family homeowner in the United States. These people are the reason others can't afford a house. Do not support them. I have dealt with multiple people trying to solve this issue with no resolution.
