Fantastic experience: Lived in a Parrish Realty apartment rental for 4.5 years and it was a great place to live - newly renovated, safe, very clean, and affordable. The properties are well kept up with, and management is kind and easy to work with.

Fantastic experience: Debbie did everything she could to get my family into our home on time and she did. They are pleasant people to work with and they care.
Thank you, Andy. So happy your family relocated to our community !!
Negative experience: Absolutely no maintenance or repairs done while holding a security deposit and collecting two months rent from a disabled prospective tenant who never took possession, due to continued lack of habitability of the apartment 36 days after paying the security deposit and the first months rent, who cancelled the lease agreement because Parrish Properties violated it through their failure to properly maintain it (apartment) in good repair. Note damaged walls, doors, disgusting medicine cabinet and cockroaches, even inside of the refrigerator. They allege they're entitled to retain the security deposit for "holding" the apartment after breaching the contract by failing to ever make it habitable as they are required to do according to the lease.
I like to think that this type of claim does not dignify a response, but I suppose it remains here, and we must since folks may believe these claims. It will be difficult to delicately say truth here in order to clarify, however I will do my best. First and foremost, this person was supposedly renting on behalf of a relative who was moving from out of state who was not moving until a month and a half later. This person insisted on paying a deposit and rent in early November on the spot despite my telling her the apart was not ready and not clean. She assured me that there was no hurry and she just wanted to secure the apartment. It is absolute false claim that there were no repairs made, and this person never took occupancy because, I suspect, the person acting on his behalf was attempting to extort funds from our company. The photos she posts on this review were taken shortly after she was told the apartment was not ready, and the apartment was ready by December 7 which was ahead of her schedule. She caused a scene in our office, and refused to take the apartment even though the apartment was finished on that day. We returned the rent that was paid. She filed a case against us accusing of all kinds of outrageous claims , and when we counter sued, she suddenly retreated presumably because she did not expect that our documentation was more compelling than hers. Miraculously, her relative had an alternate place to live when he arrived from out of state. The apartment was immediately rented the following week with no issues. If this person had any decency she would remove this post. We shall see.
Fantastic experience: Great company, pleasant owner.
Fantastic experience: Staff is very friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: We have rented two different homes from Parrish properties. Application process was quick and easy and we moved in the next day . In this time , anytime we have been in need of repairs , even after hours they are very quick to respond. Debbie is very kind and professional , always helpful and has been wonderful to deal with. I would highly recommend them .
Negative experience: Illegal practices and breaks landlord tenant laws. Will show up on your property unannounced and let themselves in.
Hi Molly. I’m afraid you must have the wrong company. We do not rent to you nor do we enter occupied properties without proper notice. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Parrish Properties! Great communication ...used this management company for years and never had an issue....
Negative experience: Just went to look at property for rent. None of the pictures on their website was for the side of the duplex that was available. Windows were broken. Felt like we might fall through the floor. No room for a reasonably sized washer and dryer. AC unit wasn't properly set in the window leaving a big gap. Some lights didn't work. Wasted our time.
Bill, we are sorry to hear that you had a less than pleasant experience with Parrish Properties! Our staff strives to exceed any and all expectations when working together. Please feel free to reach out so we can help better serve you in the future.
Fantastic experience: I have rented a property from Parrish Properties for over a year. They are very professional and a pleasure to work with. Their response time is within an hour or two at the most, even over the weekend. I highly recommend them.
Fantastic experience: Been with Parish for over 3 years. They are a really good management team. We have called a few times for repairs and problems and they have been right out to fix them.
Fantastic experience: Been a tenant of Parrish for quite a few years now and never had an issue and they are extremely courteous when you meet with them and are helpful when something needs to be fixed
Fantastic experience: Always reliable and responsive. Great folks to work with!
Fantastic experience: Awesome job at managing my property! Easy to get ahold of, and very professional! I recommend them 100%!
Thank you, Tammy.
Fantastic experience: Parrish properties is a wonderful place they are always willing to work with you and if you have something broken in the house they make sure it is fixed quickly love this company
Negative experience: Awful I heard they take cash instead of checks and try to evict people whever they want
We have never done business with Taylor Holmes, however we have always accept all methods of payment. Most of our tenants prefer using our convenient on-line method of payment, but some others only want to pay with cash for which they always receive a receipt. Further, it is impossible to evict people for no just cause and we never want to have to go through that process. Thank you for your comments, and feel free to call us any time.
Fantastic experience: You have been so helpful to me and my family and we appreciate all that you’ve done to help us. You have been a life saver.
Fantastic experience: So pleased with Parrish Properties. I was managing my own property and had rented to a friend for whom I was trying to do a favor. Things turned south, and we found ourselves in a terribly traumatic situation with my so-called friend. Parrish took over, gracefully followed our laws, which unfortunately are not exactly Landlord friendly, and she moved out of the house much sooner than I dreamed possible. Thanks Debbie and Jeff !!
Positive experience: Debbie is a wonderful person to deal with! She is super understanding and very nice! I have rented from them for over 4 years!!!!!
Fantastic experience: Amazing team they worked their butts off to get us in
Negative experience: Parrish Properties is a great place to rent from if you go directly through them. The reason I'm only rating 1star is because we rented the house on 2401 Oakwood Road in Midway, and the Landlord and his wife were horrible to deal with when we had to cut our lease early due to me having complications with my pregnancy and at risk of losing our baby. We tried to explain that they let my husband go because he stayed out of work to be with me in the hospital and that we were possibly losing my baby and all they did was cuss and say "boo hoo for yall." The worst part was they blocked the drive way off to were we couldn't even get to the home to pack our things. We had to bring officers since we were still in our lease and in the month we had already paid for. I will end that Parrish property is great and we are grateful they were so kind the 7 months we dealt with them. The landlords acted foolishly. So if you want neighbors who constantly knock on your door a week before your rent is due and are constantly coming up on the property while your not there, rent 2401 Oakwood rd.
Fantastic experience: Very great place to rent from or own property or buy a house great staff
Fantastic experience: Very nice people and helpful they helped us when no one else would
Negative experience: the worst place ever to rent, i would rent somewhere else
Fantastic experience: I had looked for a month to find a place to live. I found a house and talked to Jeff. He met me at the place we talked. And next day I went in and signed lease. Super nice people. I had talked to other realtors but none were as friendly and helpful than Parrish . I give them thumbs up!
Negative experience: DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY unless you want to live in a dirty, mold infested, roach infested house. I am a Disabled Veteran who recently moved to Greeneville with my family. We found a house for rent online listed by Parrish Properties. My uncle whom is local went and looked at the house for us and told Mrs. Wilson that the house would be fine IF it was cleaned. She told him that it would be. We knew we needed to paint the living room and that was not an issue. My father and I arrived on 10-27-16 with a uhaul trailer and two vehicles full of household items to find a house that was dirty, infested with black mold and infested with roaches (dead and alive). The house had not been cleaned. Mr. Wilson's response was the house was really dirty and they had spent five days cleaning it. Totally not the case! The vanity in the bathroom was disgusting and broken. They claimed they thought it had been fixed. Again not the case. The bath tub had mold growing up the back and was rust stained caused by the water. The toilet water was brown and the water coming out of the faucets was red due to the house sitting for so long. The finished basement had mold growing up the walls and the fire place had burned up wood and about 10 packs worth of cigarette butts thrown in it. The white tile floor in the basement was almost black from being so dirty. In each bedroom the closet doors were not on the hinges but leaning up against the shelves in the closet. Every room in the house needed to be painted. The hard wood floors were sticky and nasty. Mrs. Wilson's response was there was no mold and there were no doors off the hinges. I took pictures and emailed them to her. The yard had grass and weeds growing up to the windows. The fenced in back yard was not fenced in. The pictures on Parrish Properties' website showed a very nice house. This was not the case. We found another house on their website and asked if we could look at it. She told us that she WOULD NOT rent another home to us and WOULD NOT refund any money. We paid $800 security deposit, $250 pet deposit, $100 for October rent, $400 towards November rent. We ended up having to spend another $1200 to find a home through another company. We went to her office twice and both times she was there but was "unavailable" as her and her husband watched us pull up through the front window. Neither of them would come out to the house while we were there. She would only communicate via email and only a couple telephone calls. We explained to her that our home in Virginia was being rented and we had to be out by November 1st and that this situation was going to put us in a homeless status. She had no concern and was not willing to work with us at all. She sent an email releasing us from the lease but to date have not received a formal document. Not one dime has been refunded. I hope this review will stop this from happening to someone else. This all could have been avoided if she would have just done the right thing.
