Landlord reviews in Texas

Had to move to another unit closer to the leasing office due to upstairs neighbors being drug dealers and constantly throwing parties that the police were busting. The leasing office would not allow us to break our current lease and forced us to stay on the property despite us feeling unsafe. There were constantly roaches and maintenance issues within each unit that never were fixed or acknowledged.

https://portal-txbrazos.tylertech.cloud/BrazosPortal/, click the smart search button and look up "Mahapatra, Rupak". Landlord didn't only steal the deposit, he tried to use the appeal process to not pay and a lien had to be placed on his property. Buyer beware.

Rupak is an abusive asshole. He writes his own leases and tries to pass them off as standard although several classes are illegal. He will steal your deposit and tries to claim you damaged his property to scare you into fixing his properties. If you want to avoid a nightmare do not rent from him, it's not worth it. You will not find a single tenant in his properties who has had a good experience.

Communication was poor landlord and wife were never on the same page. Wife wasn’t aware of things going on , that me and my partner had already discussed about with her husband and she would bug us about those things and how he didn’t keep her in the loop. Which made no sense bc she hired a property manager, who told us not to communicate with her since she’s busy with a newborn.I had issues with the deposit, they were making us responsible for the microwave after we moved out, clamming the microwave not shutting . we had a video from our move out date where the microwave door was shut and a picture . the landlord acalled me saying the property manager wanted to go to court just waiting for their go since i did not agree and should pay for microwave and sue us 4 the month of October even tho property manager took 3 wks to do walkthrough, we moved out sep 30th . They changed contract and added addendums, wife wanted to prohibit us from flushing toilet paper and so much more!

She is a scum lord doesn’t like fixing things in a timely manner it takes her months and she is very rude and disrespectful she sends people out to spy on you rented from her for years and never seen her face we always paid our rent before time but we had to wait months for her to send people out to do repairs and everyone she sent had been drinking or smoking and all they did was patch up the problem and a month later we would be going through the same thing all over again please don’t rent from her cause you will have the biggest headache ever rent from someone that will make sure your living is worth the money

Yipsi has been amazing and has taken such good care of us. I couldn’t recommend her homes enough! Should be the role model for every landlord out there. Highly recommend!

This landlord is a liar and thief. He scammed me out of my safety deposit and made my tenancy unnecessarily stressful. If you want to rent any of his properties, I suggest talking to the current tenants. You should also read you lease very carefully. He usually says he got it off the internet and it's a standard lease. He actually writes the lease himself and most of the clauses on it will be used against you at a later time. He also likes to add things between signings. Save yourself the headache and look for another landlord, his properties are definitely not worth the additional headaches.

I rented from Rupak a couple of years ago and it was a nightmare. I still have PTSD from his emails, text messages, and overall behavior. As an example, he resorted to saying I had to clean and be out of the house for tenant showings or he would fine us and sew us. This was not true, but rather a scare tactic so newer tenants could not see the look of grief and dissatisfaction with him as a landlord. He will rope you in by saying he is a Physics professor at TAMU and you should trust him. He will then proceed to try and take advantage of you at every turn. His usual behaviors include harassment, failure to make timely repairs, lies about the lease, and eleventh-hour bogus charges and insane rent increases. I am not only summarizing my experience but that of other tenants. If you think this is an exaggeration, do your due diligence and go talk to the current tenants at any one of his properties.

Landlord will look for any excuse to not do repairs and then blame you for the issue. He will try to write out as much responsibility out of the lease as he can. If you press him on repairs he will start harrasing you on nonesense. He also stole the last tenants deposit under bogus charges. This was not a case of he said/she said. They did a walkthrough and he said everything was in order. Changed his mind the following day. He prefers foreign tenants as he believes they do not know the laws.

Catherine seems cooperative at first but doesn’t maintain her properties, leading to excessive and unfair deposit deductions. She pushes repair costs onto tenants and raises rent suddenly, with little concern for affordability. Showings are intrusive—she doesn’t respect scheduling, arrives early, stays late, and even used tenants’ furniture in listings without permission. Her repair and cleaning teams seem overpriced, but she just calls it “business.”

Responsive and fair landlord, usually replying within a few hours. He genuinely cares about his tenants and treats them with respect. Never had any issues—highly recommend.

She handles maintenance requests but gets frustrated with recurring issues and tries to blame tenants. Lawn care is supposed to be included, but I always have to ask for it, and she expects me to use the mower she left behind. Rent increases by $50 every year, even though the property was bought outright. Most of her properties are old and come with ongoing issues.

The landlord is very nice, but the home could have been better maintained between tenants.

Beware of their aggressive collections process! I have a high 700s credit score, never missed a bill, and always pay on time—yet they sent me to collections before I even knew I had a balance. No notice, no warning, just straight to collections. If you rent here, triple-check every charge to avoid a surprise hit on your credit.

Living here was fine, but moving out was a nightmare. They wouldn’t let me end my lease on time, charged double rent for an extra month, raised utilities, and refused to return my deposit or provide an itemized list of deductions. Two years after I moved out, they hit me with an unexpected $200 charge for "repairs" they never mentioned before. During my stay, I dealt with an open dumpster outside my window, broken gates, and my car being broken into twice—but I chalked it up to apartment life. The staff was generally nice, and maintenance was quick (even if some fixes needed redoing), but the second I gave notice, all transparency disappeared. No checklist, no walk-through—just extra fees and frustration. If the move-out process had been fair, I might have recommended them. But with how they handled my departure, I absolutely wouldn’t.

Craig was great at first, but when it came to important repairs, communication became nearly impossible. Getting issues fixed was a hassle, and the contractors he hired didn’t do quality work. Wouldn’t recommend if you expect reliable maintenance.

This management company sent me a three-day notice to vacate based on completely false information—and they didn’t even use a reliable delivery method. They accused me of hiring an "unlicensed plumber" without a permit, when in reality, I paid Texas Renters to install a gas line for a dryer because the unit was advertised with hookups. If that work wasn’t up to code, that’s on them, not me. The landlord, Thomas Upchurch, is completely absent and seems unable to manage his properties properly.

Repairs were ignored unless I threatened legal action. The landlord gave little to no notice before showing up, even after I called it out. The house had black mold, barely any smoke detectors, and major plumbing issues that cost me money. It was clear the place wasn’t maintained before renting it out. The neighborhood is nice, but the house? Not worth it. Wouldn’t recommend.

I was one of the first tenants in this building and during my time here the management company has changed. The staff from both teams were friendly and they offered a great signing promotion. Biggest con here was the underground parking garage. It’s always a pain to bring groceries in but other than that no complaints.

Awesome apartment, quick maintenance, and no issues with the unit. Lived here for a year and felt very safe. Only issue was the mail/package situation. It’s all in the parking garage and easily accessible by outsiders. Had a few packages taken.

Greenwood king was mid at best, but the owner of this place rocks. He was super hands on and even let us stay an extra month while my roommates and I studied for the bar exam.

Terrible experience. Pool floor is green, laundry machines never work and don't get maintenance, dryers do not dry. Cabinet/counter contractors did a terrible job. Apartment had a roach infestation and was told it was a problem from the neighboring unit. Pest control was going, but up until the day I left, there were still roaches. Lived with the roach problem for over 6 months and they were not able to eradicate them. Management is awful and does not care about concerns.

Tim and Judy are extremely nice and helpful. The maintenance guy was amazing. Fixed anything really quickly. Truly enjoyed my stay here and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quite nice apartment. Apartment issues -- The air conditioning had a 15 degree differential. If it was 95 outside, it could only get to 80. Just a heads up. The stairs to go upstairs are not covered, so when it iced over, so did our metal stairs. I severely injured my back because of this.

Great staff, maintenance is decent. Neighbors are mostly great, but the management won't do much about noise.

Landlord is Imran Khan. He is the worst landlord of all time. He will take your “refundable” deposit. When you see that Navy Blue Toyota 4Runner, take your money and run4 your life.

Judy is an amazing landlord. Always quick to answer any questions or concerns that we have. The house is kept up in great condition. I love living here!

Multiple random application fees Apartment was still under construction (bathroom and deck) Had to call them multiple times to get the 1 month free they promised us Car got towed because they hey didn’t properly alert us prior to moving in Water bill doubled each month Block phone numbers Here to support the previous review as factual: We just moved in and we have being running into different issues, first our apartment bathroom wasn’t ready which delayed us moving in by three weeks and when I asked for the money we payed for the rest of the month we were told we could not get it back. Then the maintenance took to long to come fix the bathroom, I had to call them every couple of days to remind them of the repairs. The light was not working, our balcony wasn’t cleaned, and garbage disposal wasn’t working as well. Today one of our car was towed because apparently we were supposed to register our car with another website but we were never informed of that making us spend 330 dollars to

Roaches, mice, mold, and electrical wiring that needs updated. Every summer, when everyone is running their a.c. (and tv’s, etc), the breaker always trips. Also, had an attorney representing me stated they couldn’t find a business registration listed here in Texas for the property owners. It was a roof over my head until I could do better.

The property management does absolutely nothing in regards to fixing, tree trimming or serious plumbing problems. Not to mention they will treat the rent as an loan to affect your credit score, lie and force eviction even if you pay on the rent. Biggest mistake you could ever make.

The house is a bit old but it overall had a great foundation. It is managed by a property management group which made submitting repair requests and getting any type of tenet assistance really difficult. At the time of move out I got to meet the actual owner of the home. He himself was a decent guy and expressed his own disdain for the PM group. The area can get a little active during some hours of the night but overall I was rarely disturbed when living here.

I really enjoyed my time in this cozy studio! The layout was fantastic, and maintenance was always prompt and attentive. The hallways were consistently quiet and clean, which added to the overall pleasant atmosphere. However, I did have a few drawbacks. Living off the street meant I often woke up early due to garbage trucks at 3 or 4 AM. Additionally, the pool was mostly shaded, making it too cold to use, and there were only one or two lounge chairs in the sun. On the plus side, the location is great—very close to downtown and all its amenities. One thing I found a bit frustrating was the valet trash fee of $35, especially since other apartments offer similar services for $20. That said, I really appreciated the community events they organized each month, which helped foster a great sense of belonging among residents. Overall, it's a lovely place to live with a few minor issues!

The two stars just come from the price and size of the unit you get. First moved in and had roaches already living in the unit, they didn’t let me know that. Water shuts off regularly without notice before hand. Peoples cars get broken into, and management still struggled to keep the enter and exit gates closed and operating correctly. Dog poop is EVERYWHERE, and they do nothing about it. This is a decent deal, but the people managing this place do little to nothing about all the issues.

I absolutely loved living here! The house was in excellent condition and the owners were incredible. They went above and beyond to address any concerns we had. The gutters were repaired quickly, and Mr. Stokes even came out to help clear the branches during bad weather. I could not recommend the house/owners enough!

Stay was okay, but came with issues. The construction of this house was the bare minimum
