Hi Peter,

Comments and feedback are always welcome (even 3 years later!), so thank you!

Regarding fireplace and roof replacements, we have these inspected yearly and repaired where necessary (including yours), however eventually you do need to make these replacements. Regardless, I’m sorry to hear you were not 100% satisfied with our service. Here are a few major changes/improvements that we have made over the last 3+ years since you left us, which you most likely are not aware of:

- We’ve increased our staff by 100%, allowing us to better serve our clients and tenants, as well as improve our systems
- We’ve made a complete change to our management personnel
- We’ve moved our office to a larger location, allowing for more staff and better overall efficiency
- Complete overhaul and re-work of many of our management systems and procedures

It’s been a very busy 3 years, but the feedback we’re getting has been amazing! If you’re in need of property management in the future, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. I guarantee you that you will be absolutely blown away by the positive changes and by the level of our service.
