Review of SKY Properties, Inc

I was so excited to move into Echo Lofts. However,...

I was so excited to move into Echo Lofts. However, on September 1st I walked into a complete mess. Before you sign a lease with this property, be sure to read all of their reviews not just the ones that are five-star. That was my mistake.

Before I moved in, I assumed that the property manager would walk through the space with the previous tenant to ensure the space wasn't left in the condition you see in the photos.

When I walked in and saw the holes, black fingerprints, a moldy air vent, water damage, and the grimy nature of the apartment, I was shocked and disappointed. These issues made it very clear that the person moving out didn't care for the space and that Sky Properties doesn't do their part to maintain their properties. Again this is disappointing, especially since they have these videos and perfect photos posted on YT and their listing pages.

They allow their tenants to leave their properties any kind of way. There is no form of accountability for the former tenants, and they will do nothing to make it right, even if it's as simple as painting the walls so that I feel comfortable paying a deposit on my new space. No one wants to get stuck paying for someone else's mess. Oh, and the deposits that are left on the apartment when a tenant moves out (they will only give you back your deposit if all occupants vacate the space. So don't count on getting your deposit back if you and your roommate aren't moving out at the same time) they will not use that to fix anything that a previous tenant left behind.

Let my experience be a reminder that pretty photos and videos and "5-star" reviews aren't the best gauge when it comes to how a company cares for its tenants and its property.
