Jackson was great realtor. I asked a ton of questions and he was very quick and professional with his responses. My apartment was well cleaned and in great shape before move in!

The group at Crescent Realty has been a pleasure to worth with from finding an apartment to getting any necessary maintenance completed for my move in. The bathroom was looking a bit dated and upon asking, they immediately changed some appliances and painted both the tub and sink while I was out of town. They accommodated my schedule perfectly so I came back to a beautifully painted bathroom! Not only that, but the team has been incredibly responsive and Ive never had to wonder who to contact to get something done. Looking forward to enjoying their services while living here!

I have a good experience finding an apartment with Crescent Realty. Tyler Benner is very professional and reliable. My husband also had a very good impression of him. And Beacon Hill is amazingly beautiful! I would highly recommend.

Renting from Crescent Realty Co has been a great experience. Our broker, Joe, was really easy to work with. Whenever we have a problem they send someone over right away (sometimes the same day) and do not stop until the problem is solved. Would definitely recommend.

I did not have the most positive apartment search experience working with Randy at Crescent.
Now, I did meet Randy under pretty stressful circumstances - my first choice apartment fell through at the last minute, and I was due to catch a plane back home at 3pm. So I was scrambling to figure something out, I called Randy about one apartment and he said he could show me a few that fit my criteria - bright apt with a large living room. Out of the places we saw, at least 2 were unacceptable: one had no windows in the living room, the other had a closet for a living room. Fail. At the very end, he
