Briken & Associates Inc

Negative experience: Absolutely terrible experience! Just like many other complaints, good luck getting your deposit back. It took them over a month to send part of my deposit. I was charged for cleaning. $300. Carpet was $247. I paid rent on the 1st and moved out on the 8th. They shorted my pro rate by $990. No itemized bill just some handwritten BS on a statement they sent with my partial deposit! I cleaned the house thoroughly but still got charged $300 for cleaning! Simply put they are nothing more than thieves!

Negative experience: They will lieeeee.

Negative experience: They wouldn't work with me in a apartment that I should of qualified for.My mom rents from them. They acted as if I afford anything.

Negative experience: I didn’t trust the reviews but I should have. Worst company I have ever rented from. They tried charging me thousands of repairs that made no sense, they sent a repair man that was in my house for 5 minutes and immediately accused me for anything wrong w their amenities and roach infestation and tried to charge me for a new stove which actually after I had it checked it worked just fine but they did not care for anything I said. They were threatening and cruel. I hated that I rented from them and regret it. The home was fine but the experience I had with them was the worst… I stayed in that house for 8 hours to clean everything and leave it as spotless as I could, painted and patched what I could on my own but the ridiculous amount they charged me was unfair and all they could do is threaten to send it to collections to effect me if I didn’t pay

Fantastic experience: Mrs. Jamie got me and my family setup very quickly. I viewed the place, applied and was handed the keys in one week. They were very helpful. Me and the kids absolutely LOVE our new spot. Highly recommend this company and this group of people!

Negative experience: The worst place to rent from. They cheat you out of everything and screw you when you move out. Do not clean the house when moving out they’ll just charge you for it anyways. And paint work will be charged as well. They are unprofessional!

Negative experience: I don't rent fm this company but I do have a home on the side of one of there properties an it has 2 bad trees on it I have called a total of 4 times an keep getting the run around. But there days are being numbered u can't do people wrong an think ur business is abt to keep booming if the tree fall it will be in my house...... I'm keeping a report

Negative experience: They are theft , they took all my deposit and I left the apartment very very clean and suddenly they took all my deposit without any reason, my advice don’t rent from them and front desk are very rude

Negative experience: I have never seen in my life a place as disgusting as this one. I do not recommend it at all.

Negative experience: Don’t rent apartments from them they don’t keep up the property and they talk to u bad and rude they don’t care about the residents

Negative experience: I will never rent from them again and will not recommend. They were very rude and unprofessional when they called my phone. I moved out and informed someone in the office I was moving out and because they have lack of communication on their part; they're trying to keep my deposit saying I still owe them. I would not recommend. If I could put 0 stars I would. I took videos and pics of me moving out and cleaning that house up. If I have to get a lawyer I will. Y'all are playing people out of their money

Positive experience: They have some very nice houses. It's just a shame that you have to have a good credit score despite the fact that you have 4x the income.

Fantastic experience: Easy to communicate with a and quality property management.

Fantastic experience: Always a pleasure to work with!

Fantastic experience: Well run organization with great staff and good property owners.

Negative experience: Un incubo! Tutti hanno la chiave di casa e mentre fai colazione, se è uno dei primi 5 giorni del mese, puoi aspettarti che la persona che cambia i filtri dell'aria entra in casa senza nessun avviso, tanto fa velocemente. Il Microonde faceva scintille, lavastoviglie rotta, il lavandino del bagno gocciolava e tutto sporchissimo. Ps: la ciotola dei biscotti che non trovavo ce l'aveva la signora della manutenzione (che arrivava col marito e 2 cani) e la usava per dar da bere ai suoi cani. Brutta esperienza!

Negative experience: I don’t normally post a review when I have a negative experience with anywhere that I go, Briken and Associates does make the exception. Moving in, the floors were disgusting and I had to mop the floors myself, there was a dryer with no dryer vent (replaced it myself) , glass shattered on the porch, every window must have been damaged and the repairs are nothing but a clear board with silicone caulk and screws to hold the “window” in place. They grossly misunderstand fair housing rules regarding ESA animals and when corrected, Jamie will catch an attitude and raise her voice at you. At move out, you will not hear from staff unless you contact them yourself regarding if there are charges or not and when you get a call back you will be told that you will receive your full deposit back. Do not believe them as I did since two days after our conversation I had with I received partial of my deposit and $300 in charges with no proof but a handwritten letter. You will also be told on paper that the inspection was conducted on a certain date but is contradicted by staff when asked days after the charges have been made supposedly. To say that Briken and Associates is overpriced, unprofessional and deceitful would be an understatement. Do not rent from this company no matter your circumstance.

Negative experience: Very rude with racist attitude

Negative experience: If I could leave zero stars I would. Do NOT expect to get your deposit back!! I literal made sure that place looked better than it did when I moved in and they still took my ENTIRE deposit and added on more charges than what my deposit was!!! I have pictures and videos of everything when I moved out showing how it was left when I moved out, but taking them to court would probably be a waste of time dealing with those crooks. When I moved in it wasn’t even clean and it was NOT in good condition, but they will expect you to have it in perfect condition when you move out! If you plan to rent or lease from them, PLEASE RECONSIDER!!! One example is that they said the carpets needed to be shampooed. Look in my picture below of one of the bedrooms when I moved out. I vacuumed and shampooed the carpets when I moved out!

Fantastic experience: I needed a new place to stay, my secretary found it. I visited it on Google maps. Had appointment on the 31 to sign the lease, moved in on the first. Utilities were simple to move, electricity super simple kept power on in old apartment til the third turn on in new place on the first. Arranged it all on the 31st Gas was a little bit harder, I had to wait for a gas technician to hook up my and read the meter.

Fantastic experience: ❤

Fantastic experience: Great people

Fantastic experience: Wonderful people and great apartments

Fantastic experience: I own property next to them,looks like I got pinged

Negative experience: This is the worst apartment property management I have ever experienced. Have called several times about maintenance in our property either no one answers the line and when they do and say they will send someone out to look no one shows up.

Fantastic experience: Very good

Negative experience: I rented at two different locations with this company. The apts were fine but when it came time to finish my lease they charged me for the carpet that they also charged the previous tenants for and even after charging them for it didn't repair it for me to move in with. So basically double charged. I finished my lease and they charged me for the carpet even after I showed them thier own damage report from the previous tenant that they charged me for. They of course took my 900$ deposit and charged another 900 against my credit. So if you rent don't expect a deposit back and be prepared to dispute credit. I've called several times to try find resolve and couldn't come to an agreement with this company

Fantastic experience: Lots of properties to choose from to meet anyone's needs. Very professional staff, and caring owners. Also very attentive to any maintenance needs to keep their properties in tip top shape.

Negative experience: Very unprofessional and inconsiderate staff that will bill you for various things even when you leave the home spotless.

Fantastic experience: Awesome Business, very professional staff. 100’s of property rentals.

Fantastic experience: It was a absolute pleasure doing business with this company. Very professionally run. Any concerns I had were addressed immediately with no hassle. The home I rented through them was extremely beautiful very well maintained, hats off to the owners. A big thank you to the staff at Briken & Associates!

Negative experience: Because the worker there are rude

Fantastic experience: I’ve been really impressed with Briken and how they run their business. They are thorough, efficient, professional and helpful. They return calls and answer questions patiently and courteously. For a short while I was with another management company and mistakes were made the very first month that was never reconciled... it was easy to switch to Briken and feel more confident in their work ethic and performance. Thank you Briken Associates!

Negative experience: I have 1 month asking to get the refrigerator fixed and they just get away with it! I have expend more than 1000 dollars buying lunch in last than a month and they don't care about it !!!

Negative experience: If you're interested in over priced units and odd smells come to briken

Fantastic experience: Very professional

Fantastic experience: Like this place

Positive experience: Very nice and helpful.

Positive experience: Nice office

Fantastic experience: This is where I pay my rent. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, about rental properties. And they are considerate, will work with you . They're great!

Positive experience: The desk girl was kinda stuckup...but I like the owners.

Negative experience: Personal experiences with Briken & Associates: 1. Front desk person very unpleasant and "irritated" if bothered with questions or complaints 2. Will not do an initial walk-through with you after signing 3. After moving in, whatever problems the initial walk-through found were not acknowledged until the refrigerator started leaking 4. God forbid you need to get out of your lease, no matter the reason: lost job, my company was ready to pay them 3-months rent to let us out of our lease, but they refused! In the end, after putting the house myself on Zillow and Craigslist, they were able to sign a new lease, but still collected from us AND the new lessee for a couple of weeks. Truly acting like a pack of hyenas smelling the blood (money): nothing professional to say about them.
