Granite Realty & Investment

Granite Realty have been the most helpful and caring people I've came a cross renting. As a broke artist they provide affordable housing which is very livable and full of interesting people. Cat friendly as well, at least for my places. more

I lived at 969 S. Pearl St at one of Granite Realty's properties for 3 years (Property Manager: Aaron Kessler). Upon moving in, there was significant damage to the carpets, walls and bathroom. Since my roommate and I were two bachelor, business professionals in our late twenties, we figured it would be better to leave the carpets/walls as they were originally rented, rather than have them replaced (which was offered to us) and potentially do any damages that would cause us to lose any amount of our security deposit. Over the course of our lease, Aaron assured us that we would not be charged for previous damage caused by tenants 3 years ago. When it came time to get our security deposits back, Aaron/Granite Realty charged us for close to our entire security deposit and claimed it was likely due to ""damages from storing our bikes in the apartment"". Absolutely nonsense. We are currently taking Granite Realty to small claims courts. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! IF YOU DO RENT WITH GRANITE REALTY, DOCUMENT EVERY SCRATCH IN THE PLACE! Definitely a predatory renter. BEWARE!"" more

I have had no heat for a month. It took 2 weeks to fix my ceiling after a leak and then it was because I threatened legal action if it wasn't fixed. They never cleaned the carpet, which was damaged in the leak. My landlord did it and billed them. I reported a problem almost 2 weeks ago with my banister and it is just now being fixed. They could not manage their way out of a paper bag with both hands, a flashlight and a map. HORRIBLE. They are either non responsive or RUDE when you call. Cons: Non responsive, does not fix problems, rude more
