Remco-A Real Estate & Management Company

When I was scheduled to take the keys for apartment; I walked into the kitchen floor being redone and a stove sitting in the bedroom area because there wasn’t a place for it to sit in the kitchen while they were working. Even though the apartment was supposed to be ready to go at the moment I was taking the keys, it was not. I looked past it because I didn’t have plans to bring my personal items and bed until the next day.
After fully moving in the hot water tank would not work. After several phone calls without any resolution, I had to leave a firm voicemail stating I wasn’t going to pay my rent until it got fixed because the whether was getting colder and I didn’t want cold showers any longer.
After that issue, there began a leak in the bathroom wall that caused mildew which had began in September 2015. The leaked caused the wall to become soft, and caused the paint to bubble. I reported that in October 2015. After calling, there was no further action by REMCO or the owners of the unit. I moved out in December 2015 with the wall still leaking.
Also, Once it turned cold in November I tried turning on the heater and it also does not work. Halfway through December, I still didn’t have a heater until a few days before I moved out and it FINALLY worked.
If you want to rent, seek an apartment somewhere else

It’s like what everyone said a total scam I had like this apartment for me and my girl there was other credit check was 35 bucks I was never notify about the apartment they never called me back they probably had made a decesion already and never even run the credit check I paid for me and my girl which was 70 bucks red flag!!!

I would like to say that out of all the management companies that I have ever rented through Remco was one of the best companies thus far. From submitting the application, getting approved for the apartment (which by the way too less than a week to get my approval) setting up the move in walk through (I don’t remember the guy with the blond hair who I did the walk through with but he’s awesome), signing my lease and getting my keys was such an easy process which I know most of us need especially during times of trying to move which can be a daunting task within itself. This company has excellent customer service skills and knowledgeable staff members in the entire team. Remco would respond to any questions or concerns in a timely manner and just being able to call knowing it would always be someone pleasant on the other end no matter the questions or concerns I had was always a plus. I was only able to rent through Remco for a year and a half because the owner sold the property I was renting so I had no choice but to move. But I will say everyday I would check Remco to see if they had any rentals that would fit my needs because I hated to lose them. Remco you guys are so awesome and I look forward to renting from your company one day in the future. I see now why it’s rare that the company has vacancies. You guys rock!!! Keep up the awesome work and happy holidays to you all. (A. Givens)

If I could give this company «0» stars I would however to leave a review you have to select something. This company is a complete RIP OFF!!! They gather a lot of applications and make you pay the $ 35 application fee and then they do not fully process you application and they make a decision based on the application that was processed the fastest!!! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE SERVICE! The women Jahira who answered the phone didn’t even know what the better business bureau was! INCOMPETENT much! I filed an application with PABST Kinney who has a much better process. You pay $ 25 and you have three months to look for and secure a unit. Remco processes their applications so fraudulently. I am reporting them to the BBB and housing authority for discrimination they will not be in business to much longer!!!

Worst company ever! First I found an apartment I like so I called to make an appointment to come view the place and when I showed up there was literally 10 other people there looking at the same apartment. We liked it so we spent 60 dollars on applications so they can do there credit checks and whatever and after a few days I was told the owner picked another applicant over us. Total scam they are running collecting as many applications as they can to make money off of each person applying and then you just have a chance to get picked! Total bullshit! Avoid this place at all cost!

I really don’t know what kind of business Remco is running, but it’s not a good one. my daughter waited over a week to hear from them. they never called. and every time she called them, they needed something else. once they got the rest of the stuff you never heard a word from them. I think they just collect people money and once they collect enough credit check money then they pick someone. they never called the job to verify employment they never called the last landlord, so how did they make an informative decision. I’m reporting them to the BBB… and will have channel 2 do an investigation into their practices. I think they are running a Donald Sterling business.

I recently set up an appointment to view an apartment… For our first appointment, i was asked if I could reschedule and it was no problem, we rescheduled and the day before viewing an emergency came up and I had to reschedule, after leaving a message hours later, my call was returned and in the middle of trying to set up another appointment, the woman grunted after asking why couldn’t I make it and hung up on me. Smh

Our attempted rental with Remco Real Estate was an extremely frustrating and ultimately fruitless experience. Here’s what happened to us.
My roommate and I turned in an apartment application on May 11^th for a June 1^st move-​in date. It said at the top of the application «this could take up to a week to process». We submitted additional documents at their request (tax returns, bank statements, w-​2s). We told them up front that we are full-​time students and that we have co-​signers available if necessary. We asked about other applications, and were told we were the only one so far. Good news.
I waited a week and did not hear anything, so I called (May 18^th). They told me they wanted even more documentation from my roommate, so we submitted that within hours of the request. I called to confirm they had received the documents, and once they had they said they would contact us within 48 hours.
On May 21^st I called again. They said they were still processing our application and would call us.
On May 23^rd I called again. They said everything looked great and that they had sent our application over to the building owner for approval and would call us within 24 hours.
On May 25^th I called again. We were finally told that our application was sent to the building owner with 2 others, and that they had selected another application for rental. I asked if there was any red flags on our application that would not allow us to rent, and we were told that everything looked great, the building owner had simply chosen a different renter.
So to summarize: 2 weeks to process our application, misleading and/​or no important information being given to us, and THEY NEVER ONCE CALLED ME. I am upset that we missed out on a great apartment, but I think we dodged a future bullet by avoiding a bad real estate company.
Save yourself some trouble and avoid if you’re renting in the Long Beach area.
