What type of kind of property owner are you?
Why do you hold real estate? It’s good to ask yourself this question at the beginning of our engagement. And be honest. Helping us to identify your motivations will help us to help you achieve your goals.
Basing this review off of our experience touring and moving into the property and our interactions with Boomtown thus far.
My wife and I toured one of their properties a few weeks ago and were very appreciative that the owner, John, was flexible with us and patient with all our questions. Since then, we've had nothing but a positive experience through all of our initial onboarding with Boomtown and Katie has been INCREDIBLY responsive and helpful with providing everything in a super transparent and timely manner.
I hope that our relationship with Boomtown continues to be this positive throughout our upcoming lease, because we've had nothing but an amazing experience thus far!SeanJohn and Katie were great to deal with! Got us approved super fast, John has integrity and is honest about properties and got us the place we couldn’t be happier going to! 5 stars!
BryanI’ve moved several times with different apartments and property management companies and this is by far the best experience I’ve had! The entire process was quick, well explained, and easy. John was very friendly and personable showing us the property and Katie has been amazing at getting everything set up and answering any questions. I quite literally never had to wait on answers or follow up on my own. 10/10 would work with them again. I’m very excited to me moving in to one of their properties!
SydneyOur experience was excellent. They gave us all the support and the process was very fast. We thank all the Boomtown team, especially Katie, who was very attentive and punctual in everything. We highly recommend her company.
SamuelDespite not having any weekend hours, Boomtown Inc. managed to get more done and process everything faster than major companies paid to essentially work 24/7. John was kind and polite when showing the property while exhibiting professionalism and knowledge. The real star of the show though is Katie and how quickly and efficiently she is with email responses of any kind. Just follow along with their detailed emails about what is needed from you and you'll be into your new home quicker than you might believe.
DanielAfter driving cross country to settle in Maryland for a new assignment, a string of events left me with an urgent need to find a new home for my family. I inquired about a property managed by Boomtown and filled out a preliminary questionnaire. A couple of days later, I met with John at a property managed by Boomtown. The townhome was by far better than anything else I had viewed, which at that point was about 12 homes. It was a no-brainer. John and Katie wasted no time and began collecting my documents on the spot. A couple of hours later, my application was submitted to the owner and I had a lease signed by the next morning. As an active duty servicemember, I have had my share of rental experiences but I have never worked with any entity as attentive as Boomtown. Between John's attention to detail with the property and Katie's unmatched customer service, I only wish that every experience could be so smooth. Well done, Boomtown! We're ready to move into our beautiful new rental.
AndyBoomtown Inc. has been a pleasure to work with. They were able to provide a tour of the property immediately and the turn around time for approval and signing the lease was exceptional. Their customer service and responsiveness was top notch and I would highly recommend!
MatthewBoomtown doing just dandy. I've been a renter for the last 10 years and they are on par with my expectations. Quick to respond and an easy to use app to pay for rent and request maintenance.
ALEXBoomtown is a great rental company, and I would highly recommend. Quick response time and friendly staff. Quality customer service, as well as quality housing. Thoroughly enjoyed my single family rental home for the duration of renting with Boomtown.
ChelseaBoomtown was a really great partner. I was a property owner and was previously using another property management company to rent my home. I was not getting the customer service support that I needed from that company and that has now drastically changed with Boomtown. They are available for questions. Their pricing is transparent and easy to understand. They were extremely helpful in the transition from one tenant and the other property management into a new tenant. They were also extremely helpful when I eventually transition from renting the property into selling it. They were very responsive to me and the real estate agent and handled all questions timely and appropriately. I was very pleased with their work.
