It's important to note that O-N Property Management has two types of constituents: tenants and property owners. I write this as a property owner. O-N acted as property management on my behalf for two properties of mine and I had an excellent experience. They are responsive, proactive, and did a great job managing my properties. They handled needed repairs and maintenance in a timely and cost-effective manner and resolved issues efficiently. I recommend them to property owners seeking a good management company.

I have lived in numerous large apartment communities run by some of the biggest names in the industry, and I can tell you! No one does it like Olympus Nelson.. I would consider them a small boutique management company, featuring unique homes and apartments across the greater houston area. They keep the grounds and common areas spotless and maintained. Maintenance is outstanding. When and if you do need maintenance they are quick and friendly! You will certainly remember their names if you are lucky enough to be at home when they stop by for a repair. Management staff is great with follow up and

So I live at a property from September 2015-january 2021. I liked it for the location and the price. I moved out and then in March I received a bill for late fees from 2019. Over a year later with out any notice. I contacted them four times about this with someone telling me they will look into it and get back with me each time. The last time I was met with Kim( I think that was her name from the accounting department). The most unprofessional call. She laughed at me multiple times. And at one point told me to shut up. That is not a great way to represent your company.

Fine during regular business but terrible about maintenance. They don't communicate well with renters and put a lot of onus on residents to coordinate any repairs. After the snow storm (Feb 2021) a lot of the plumbing under the building needed repairs. They failed to alert residents when & on what days water would be turned off. They failed to communicate when the plumbers wouldn't be able to meet a previously stated deadline. They gave my personal phone number to the plumbing company & expected me to coordinate a lot of the repairs. The entire building was affected in some way

I would not recommend this property management. I moved in around March 1, 2020. Had no idea tht COVID was going to be or already in effect. I paid a down payment and first months. Along with a fee for the fan and key. Then COVID hit full force. I've now concurred 150 fee since August. They also tried to Evict me in the middle of the pandemic. I been paying and trying to get assistance. But it impossible to get caught up with all these fees and light work.

I toured an apartment I loved. It was a great location, good price, and my style. I was ready to sign and then read a bunch of negative reviews on yelp and was super nervous. Ended up signing a lease anyways b/c I needed a place quick and it was the location I wanted in my budget. Super happy with my decision!
The unit I wanted got leased before I could sign, and they negotiated the monthly lease with me for a different larger unit. I have now lived here for about 5 months and I plan on re-signing when my lease is up.

We moved into our townhome last year and Olympus-Nelson was incredibly accommodating. The second bedroom was painted pink and our son was not pleased. They helped immediately by painting the room a neutral color before our move in date. It's been a year and we just renewed our lease. They have answered every one of our service calls quickly even when our ac broke the 4th of July. The townhome is not perfect but it's perfect for now and we are very happy with the service.

We rented with Olympus Nelson for two years, and only moved because our family grew out of the space. The apartment was older but incredible value, especially given the location, and was updated nicely on the interior. Olympus Nelson staff was always friendly and quick to respond to requests. I only give 4 of 5 stars because our washing machine flooded the apartment twice.

Words cannot describe the sheer dishonesty, disrespect, and lack of urgency displayed by Olympus Nelson. Our A/C unit broke during the summer and was not repaired until 2 weeks later. We were not able to live at our house for 2 weeks, yet Olympus did not provide any sort of temporary accommodation. Furthermore, when we asked what to do or where to sleep, they legitimately told us, "I don't know." Frankly, it was inhumane.
This is the most poorly run company I have ever come across and would not wish dealing with them on my worst enemy. Stay far far away. I am warning you.

I had no issues while leasing from Olympus Nelson. They were always professional and prompt with me.
I had to move a monthish before my lease was up to take a job in NYC. They were very understanding and allowed me to amend the lease so I wouldn't have to pay the final month. They charged no extra fee, nor any issues. Very good, definitely recommend.

I have been a tenant of the midtown location managed by Olympus Nelson for over 5 years. I am moving out next month as I am closing on a new house. Pros: 1. Rent has been very low and below market rate even with increases. It is one of the reasons I stayed so long instead of buying. Rarely was there an opening in my building. 2. Small complex = less neighbors and less drama. I am that tenant that complains about noise, trash, pets, etc and they always addressed it with other tenants quickly. 3. Maintenance is very responsive. In my time there I got new oven, fridge, ac unit, fans among other

I've been renting an apartment from Olympusnelson for a year and a half (the complex on the Scott street). The price is VERY reasonable so I expected any types of problems that other reviewers described.
The building is really old and the interior is very simple. However I moved in a just renovated apartment with painted walls, new carpet and all appliances. Never had a problem with maintenance. Several times faucets were leaking, stove or fridge stopped working, and they fix everything on the same or the next day. I was truly surprised when I complained that my fridge doesn't blow cold and they

The rent I have is decent and fair. I live in their Macgregor Garden's Apartments. The property is well maintained for the most part and they are in the process of updating the units here. I do have some complaints regarding how the laundry room has broken unsafe tiles and we have had issues with keeping the mailboxes labeled. I have found the staff in general to be very friendly and accommodating, though sometimes it takes a while to push maintenance requests through. I would rent with them again, but primarily for the affordability. They also now let you pay your rent online, which is great

Please do not rent any property from Olympus Nelson! My fiance and I have rented with them for over a year now and I wish that it was possible to rate this company less than 1 star.
Upon moving to our new rental property, we inquired as to how/when the trash pickup and mail situation worked. Olympus Nelson's response demonstrated a level of ignorance and apathy that I was stunned to see. We were told in so many words to "just look at what your neighbors do." Not only did they have no idea where the mailbox was, that it required a key, nor where said key was

Way too frequent apartment inspections. I shouldn't have strangers in my apartment on a monthly basis. I'm a very private person, but I think the inspections would bother anyone. I have pets, so they get locked up so that they don't accidentally let them out. It's unreasonable.
Also, they require you to mail in your payment. We were told that online payments were coming soon when we moved in, but months go by and still having to rely on snail mail. I've never lived anywhere that didn't have at least a drop box.
They do fix things in a timely manner, but I have had

Their rent may be low, but believe me, you get what you pay for. The apt that I live in is not terrible as far as the actual building goes, it needs a little TLC but overall it's a decent place to reside. The property 'management' though is a joke. The other tenants are loud, disrespectful and destructive, yet when you complain to Olympus Nelson, they do absolutely nothing about it. Whether its water leakage issues, property damage or your neighbors actually smoking inside their apt (which is against the lease) they do not give a damn! They put on a great facade but they have no

My roommates and I leased a home from Olypus Nelson a few weeks ago and after reading the reviews I was pretty nervous about working with this company. However, after the lease signing process and for the few weeks we have lived at the property, they have been professional. They did an amazing job cleaning an preparing the house for our move-in and they have responded quickly to the few maintenance issues we have experienced.
I felt that with all of the terrible reviews they have received, the could use a decent one.
One area where they could improve is on answering phone calls and or returning

I've lived at a property managed by Olympus Nelson for over a year now. If they didn't have the market cornered for this location & aesthetic I probably would have moved. In the year that I've been there, I'd had several problems with the property management. I can only guess that its the fact that they are family owned. They always seem to have a new receptionist... not that it matters because you can hardly get anyone to answer the phone. Unless you're signing a lease, no one there will give you any attention. Wait, I take that back.... occasionally you'll get negative attention from them accusing
