Ive just rented from Camillo Properties and am pleased with everything about them. I was feeling rejection like Vivian off of Pretty Woman in that I make descent money but the nice apartment complexes in the Houston area(post harvey) were rejecting me for stupid reasons (eg. Income restricted?, 15 year old eviction, felony that was sealed, how I look maybe) like people dont grow up and change.

My choices were hood apartments, overpriced rent homes (whomever are giving some of these homeowners appraisals on their rundown homes need to be shot) or overpriced new apartments that want to charge $1700 for a 900sq foot apartment in Baytown....you know who you are.

I looked up Camillo on a search and was impressed by the massive homes and pricing. The rental criteria and app fee is very fair compared to other renters and you dont have to put up a security deposit until you get approved and choose your home. Ive seen on another review that someone was complaining about that but let them deal with a shady renter who tries to keep your application deposit after denying you.

I was instantly approved and choose one out of many availiable units. A brand new 1700 SQ foot 3 bedroom 2.5 bath/w 2 car garage and backyard in a beautiful neighboorhood is not bad for 1350 a month.

A special thanks to Mrs Shanin Nunley for answering my questions and making the process go as smooth as possible. She is honest, straight forward and did everthing in her power to make this happen for me. Another thanks to Crystal Blue for her help as well.

Update 8/31/18
I am knocking a star off my original review due to several issues about renewing my lease and maintenance request.

The overall experience of living here has been fantastic. But nickel and diming good tenants are not gonna entice them to stay. I noticed many tenants including my neighbor are moving out and realized that Rent prices are rising. Now they want 1400 a month for my townhome. I put in my notice to vacate well ahead of the 2 month deadline and decided to move to a rental home until my actual house is ready. A decent home in this area is between 1150 to 1300 a month. I then decided to just renew instead of dealing with the hassle of another move but then they want to charge me 250 to withdraw a request I made 3 days ago. Now I can see if they put the house back on the market and it was a late notice but it was not. Camillo has no loyalty to good tenants and should offer an incentive for renewing and not a punishment. I will take my money elsewhere. There are plenty of units available now because many people are moving out. Stop being greedy camillo. Drive thru the area and you can tell it is bad for business.

Update 3/5/19 Suffice to say My lease had to end due to my unit catching on fire. I will not go into much detail about the circumstances about the fire but I can assure it wasn't my fault despite what a lying expert suggests. Read many others reviews on here and you can make an accurate assumption.
