Rent Athens LLC

Heads up! They give us gift cards for positive reviews and remove photos that cast them in a negative light from their maps listing. Not using my personal Google account as I see they like to handle negative reviews by replying with your lease details, which is sad. This company is ridiculous. They're fully aware of their position as a company with a *significant* number of properties around here, student tenants who are often renting first time so they don't know their rights or have the time to pursue issues, and potential clients who are desperate for housing. Be wary of their intentional exclusion of a lease termination clause in contracts--it means you have zero outs, even with units not up to building or fire code. Additionally, a term in their lease asserts agreement to adherence

AWFUL! house came infested with hundreds of german cockroachs. They didn't let us move in for the first week because "the house itself, it was just left very dirty and the paint was in a bad state". They only gave us 2 weeks notice and refused to pay for a hotel. We moved in with several active leaks and issues. Kitchen shelving was ripped out of the cabinets, we had mold and house needed to be resealed. We did not get our down deposit back due to paint damage that was there when we moved in and after "disputing" the charges they gave us about 1/3 of it back with no updated itemized list or reciepts. Rent athens if you see this just post records of what you used our down deposit for or give me an accurate itemized list. 0/10 would not recommend.

My daughter rented a townhome from Rent Athens and I helped her move in. Be very careful when doing your walkthrough and note every little thing. To start with there was a huge hole in the steps leading to her second story apartment which made it unsafe to move in. Also 2 other areas of wood rot. When we went back to rent Athens they acted like it was no big deal but we were there with all of her belongings in a U-Haul and unable to move in until those repairs were made. Upon move in we literally had to clean the entire apartment ourselves. There was dust on the ceiling stains in the fridge and cobwebs in the air vent and the carpet was dirty and smelled. One of the windows didn’t close all the way and you could see outside with the door closed because there was a huge gap. Also the b

Rent Athens cares nothing about your apartment until you move out of it, and they can then charge you for issues that existed when you moved in. They charged several hundred dollars more than my security deposit for mandatory carpet cleaning everyone has to pay for, a basically mandatory maid fee, and the bulk for new paint. Many of the spots there were complaints about existed when I moved in, so they either charged the previous tenant and did not repaint or did not care when I moved in. Then, there is also messed up paint from a leak I reported for over a year that a previous tenant complained about as well. For a little while one so the summers I lived here, my apt/ room was unlivable, yet Rent Athens seemed to not care or be able to do what needed to be done to fix it. Yet when I go to

My experience with Rent Athens was absolutely horrific. Customer service was never that great, and upon seeing my inspection results after move out, I will NEVER recommend this company to anyone. They’re charging me for things that I know for a fact were completely fine the last time I walked off that property and took way more than half of my deposit, which is absurd! Doesn’t seem like this is the first time they’ve done this. They’re greedy and will do anything to make a buck. Avoid them if at all possible. Not worth it.
