## Reviews

### "It's All About The Customer Service\! HANDS DOWN Above and Beyond The Rest\!" — 5.0/5

> **Jeremi** | *31 July 2024* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Cons**: I honestly can't think of anything. Sure... there's a quirk here or there.... BUT GUESS WHAT?\!... They take suggestions for future implementation AND ACTUALLY DO THEM when they are able\!.... So my quirks eventually end up going away at some point\! I've actually had some of my very suggestions implemented on future updates\!&#10;&#10;When they say they passed your idea on to the developers, THEY DO\!\!\!... not just "toss it in the bin" after the conversation ends.
> 
> To reiterate: &#10;&#10;I love the company itself. The platform does everything I need it to in order to run my professional property management company efficiently.... so would many others out there..... but it's really the customer service that is where all my affections for Rentec Direct lie. ALWAYS AND EVERY SINGLE TIME.. no matter how big or small my issue may be... even if it is for just suggestions for future improvements or tiny quirks I think could be fixed... THEY TAKE EVERY ONE OF THEM SERIOUSLY\! I always get a response back in a VERY respectable timeframe.... They take the time to COMPLETELY understand my problem.... and they work at my issues until they are SOLIDLY resolved.... I HIGHLY value any company that takes the time to invest in their customers with quality, responsive, caring, and personable customer service. Rentec Direct is all that and more and this means the world to me.&#10;&#10;THANK YOU RENTECT DIRECT FOR ALWAYS MAKING ME FEEL IMPORTANT AND THAT I MATTER EVEN IF I'M NOT THE BIGGEST FISH IN THE PUDDLE\!\!\!\!\!&#10;&#10;I switched from Cozy... Cozy was only for small individual landlords. I needed a platform that catered to professional property management with more features. Rentec Direct was the only GOOD PROFESSIONAL option that didn't tell me I needed a WHALE of a portfolio in order to be blessed with holy entry into their ranks. The rest wouldn't give me the time of day once I told them the size of my portfolio. Rentec made me feel like I was important even just starting out with only a handful of clients and units under my wing. After getting the same story from other platforms before coming across Rentec, the very first question I asked a live rep I spoke to was "Do you have a minimum portfolio size requirement?" and they happily said "Not at all\!" This meant a lot to me\! and I have been grateful ever since. Rentec Direct has my loyalty as long as they don't ever change their practices from the way they are now\!
