"Kris is like a shark in the ocean and you're bleeding everywhere." That is not something you want to hear about yourself in reference to your boss after just starting a new job in an industry you are not familiar with. Please keep in mind this statement was made to me about my boss by my direct supervisor...who says that about their own boss? Kris Ticnor, the owner of My House Property Services prides herself on her knowledge and expertise of the property management industry. She has built herself quite a company. Her office consists of about 20 employees give or take which includes her leasing staff, front desk/reception team, maintenance crew, and accounting department. I was only employed with My House for 6 months and during that time 5 employees were fired, and 6 employees quit including myself. If that isn't already a red flag to anyone looking for employment at My House then I don't know what is. This office is a very high stress environment and even the most minor mistakes are made known with passive aggressive comments or direct embarrassment during staff meetings or in front of tenants. If you are a renter or thinking of renting from this company do not take the amount of negative reviews on this page into consideration when making your decision. I only know the outcome of the reviews posted during the time that I was employed with My House but I do know that their lease is pretty standard and there is nothing out of the ordinary when it comes to rules, lease terms, and guidelines for the return of your security deposit. If you don't pay your rent on time, leave your lease early and don't follow the proper procedures, or leave your home/apartment in a dirty/damaged condition then chances are you will have late fee's on your account or be evicted, you will have insane cleaning/repair charges, and you will not get your full security deposit returned to you. Those complaints seem to be the majority of reviews on Google and BBB. My review is not to bash this company so that renters 'beware' because I truly think this company handles their business extremely professionally in regards to their residents. This is more of an warning for anyone who might become employed with this company. It is a very hostile work environment which is why I felt I needed to resign from my position without notice (which is also not a typical thing for me to do). Your words get twisted by upper management, any minor cough or sniffle will get you sent home immediately (and then you will get reprimanded for missing work), and if you don't hop skip and jump for your manager you will definitely know about it in a very demeaning way and in front of your coworkers. Typically a cold will not keep me from work and even if I am not feeling 100% I still show up and do my job... I did this at My House and I was literally told if I showed up to work "sick" again (I don't consider a cold a reason to stay home from work) that I would be fired immediately. Crazy right? I did learn a great deal about the property management industry, professionalism, and office management while employed with My House and have been able to remain successful in the property management industry with a company that I feel appreciated in. Not everyone within this company is the same. I am mainly speaking of 3 of the upper management team, if you have ever worked there then you know exactly who because they are the only 3 people who have stuck around for more than a couple of years. I know I was not the only employee that felt this way and the constant office gossip was unbelievable, closed doors for 'meetings' were happening on a daily basis and the next thing you knew words were twisted again and someone was getting a slap on the wrist, or worse, fired...there was literally no in between. Hopefully My House will take my review into consideration when thinking about how they can improve their workplace environment for their employees.
