Providence Management - Gastonia, North Carolina

These reviews along are horrific. Which makes me very uneasy moving forward with my home search with this company. Their website should also be more user friendly. If they are truly serious about finding candidates for the homes. I've reached out to schedule a viewing. Of course no one answered. No one has reached out yet. I wonder what makes the owners decide to choose this company to represent them.

Disappointing Discrimination

Review:
My wife and I recently had an extremely disheartening experience with Providence Management. We were excited about the possibility of renting a home through them, as we had heard positive things about their services. However, our excitement quickly turned into disappointment when we were denied solely because of our sexual orientation.

We provided all the necessary documents and met all the requirements they asked for. It is deeply saddening to encounter such blatant discrimination in this day and age.

Discrimination based on sexual orientation is not only morally wrong but also illegal in many places. It is important for businesses to uphold principles of equality and inclusivity, treating all individuals with respect and fairness. Providence Management failed to do so, tarnishing their reputation in our eyes.

We strongly encourage the company to reevaluate their policies and practices to ensure that no one else has to endure the same discrimination that we experienced. Discrimination has no place in our society, and it is our hope that this review serves as a reminder for them to promote inclusivity and equality for all.

We were able to find the property owner and are reaching out to him with our concerns.

Jog, run, SPRINT and GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!!!
If you are of any minority or LGBTQ don’t even waist your time with this company. The moment my wife said “my partner”, everything changed. They are extremely discriminating and will not accept you even if you provide ALL required information and more. We even offered above asking rental price and to put more money down on the deposit. Tammy was extremely unprofessional when speaking to us. We were told none of our documents provided would be accepted because we are household staff and don’t have “real jobs”. She even hung up on us and avoided our calls. This entire office is unprofessional, hateful, and discriminatory.

Another LQBTQ family that can discredit any discrimination this company was accused of having. We had a wonderful, smooth process moving in. We love our home! Awesome communication throughout the entire moving process. Would highly recommend this company!

This has been a great experience from a homeowner's perspective. The house was rented in about a month and Leighton kept me in the loop throughout the entire process. I would recommend Providence Management to anyone looking to place a tenant into their property.

BEWARE OF RENTAL SCAM. I recently applied for a rental home from Providence Property Management. The home had been on the market for a little over a month, which I thought seemed odd because it was in a highly desirable neighborhood for a pretty fair price. After starting the ridiculously intense application process, I quickly understood why the house had been on the market for so long. Not only does this company charge insanely high non-refundable application fees ($75 cash per applicant so $150 total for both my boyfriend and I) but they also ask for a money order (seems sketchy) of the first months rent for them to prioritize your application. Even if you apply first (but don't hand over the money order), if another applicant drops off their application the next day with their money order, your application will be set aside and not processed. PLUS, you have to drop off all application materials in person at their office in Gastonia.

They also required me to give notice to my current apartment, despite not even being approved for the rental home.

After two weeks of a ridiculous amount of effort and money applying to this rental property, I was denied. Myself and my boyfriend met all the income requirements, we made around 5x the amount of the rent, we have no history of eviction or rental issues, and we both have great high paying jobs. I was denied because my boyfriend had not given notice to his apartment complex that he was leaving. I don't understand how that could possibly be a requirement to get approved, when you literally put your current living situation at stake just in the hopes that you will be approved.

I of course did not get my $150 application fee back. The employees working at this company are disgustingly rude, dismissive, and have no regard for any of their clients/ applicants.

I just checked, the rental house is STILL on the market and it's been two months. I wonder how many other applicants have coughed up $150 and been denied...? It seems to be a great stream of income for this company if they continue to accept applications, deny them, and pocket the money.

Details are incoming but believe the previous reviews from 1yr+ ago. Nothing has changed so if your Afro-American, don't waste your time, gas or $$ going to their office because we are not wanted as tenants with them and their so called home owners.

Great company to use for managing your rentals! They make everything hassle free and for a reasonable monthly fee. We’re working with Leighton specifically and he has always been responsive and patient
