Century 21 Home Team Property Mgmt

I’m re-​posting this, as these criminals like to have reviews deleted…
(They also apparently can change their ratings… Screw you, Leo. Good luck getting another penny from me, arsehole.)
New Rating –5: Horrific — as Leo Marx warrants a new category.
To show at least a fair amount of temperance, I have waited several months to write this review. As noted by others, you will absolutely want to avoid any dealings with this office.
Leo Marx is incredibly dishonest, untrustworthy, and unfair. Apparently, there is no communication whatsoever with his front office and it is painfully evident that he is interested in your money to the point of lying and manufacturing paperwork to get it.
In a nutshell, I was in one of their rental properties for years. No annual inspections were done until my final year at the property. Having given lease-​specified time to notify of my intention to move out, they conducted 2 walk-​throughs (a second after the initial to correct any discrepancies).
Upon the second, I was told that all looked good, yard great, etc. Prior to my finishing final clean up with a local cleaning company, they took possession of the home early and had a 3^rd party in the home without my permission.
It spun from there, culminating in a huge, detailed/​minuscule package of receipts/​demands and specified I owed a considerable amount of money for tasks that they «re-​did» as well as periodic maintenance costs that I was never accountable for. They even charged me for debris clean-​up that their maintenance person left.
As a special bonus, he thought it would be cute to charge for a day into the next month, well after vacating, as a bonus. How Marx has kept his license for so long is far beyond me.
To that point, for those others that have been unfortunate enough to have also had similar issues with this office, I urge you to contact the Department of Real Estate (DORA) and relate your experiences. And do NOT take it lying down — fight. Otherwise, Marx will continue to prey on unwitting families in the future.
Stay away at all costs, or all the costs, legitimate or not, will be upon you.
This man is evil. His staff is also. DO NOT GO HERE!

RENTERS BEWARE! Please READ! (colorado springs)
If you are looking to rent or even buy a home, DO NOT USE CENTURY 21! There is a man named Leo-​owner of century 21 and his team of 4 women; Sheila, Phylis, Rhonda, and Kathy. They are all professional scam artists. Here is how it works; once you signed the lease Leo will walk you through a 4 hr. «walk through» where he records in a strange way using numbers, abbreviations, codes & such to mark EVERY SINGLE SCRATCH, SCUFF OR DING –IN EVERY SINGLE room of the house! Garage and outside included! This is where the scamming begins, cuz when you go to leave, each new scuff or mark will cost about $ 60.00 EACH! Then you have to use a carpet cleaner out of your pocket,$ 350.00.Then you have to use his cleaner, Crystal Clear Cleaning, starting @$ 150.00 then, you have to use his landscaper/​yard clean up, which starts @ $ 175.00 + are you seeing the picture, you spend your money to clean his place, then he makes up all this ridiculous lingo and pages of chicken scratch NO ONE can make sense of and takes several hundreds from your security deposit SOO if he with holds several hundreds of dollars from every tenant him and his girls are rich off your hard earned money! Because no one is going to sue him over $ 600.00 ! Right? So if you are already in his lease, here’s what you do when you leave: Deduct all these costs: cleaning, carpets, ect… then don’t pay your last months rent cuz he’s gonna take from you anyway and leave the place a mess and just bail!!! don’t give any info to them! No matter how clean and superb tenant you are, he has these sneaky terms to keep your money! AND I ASSURE YOU HE WILL!!! If I save even one family from heart ache by posting this than I have done my job as a human being! so good luck!
