Testimonials
Stories from tenants and landlords across our six service markets.
“I had been turned down by three different property managers because of an old eviction from when I was going through a divorce. Harbor Gates actually listened to my situation. Application Tuesday morning, approved by lunch, in the home 11 days later. My kids finally have a yard.”
“My credit score is 580. Every other rental site I tried wouldn’t even let me submit. Harbor Gates didn’t care about the number. They asked about my income and my work history, and that was that. I’ve been here 14 months and the rent has never been late.”
“The application took 8 minutes. They got back to me in less than an hour. I signed the lease the next day. After two months of being told no by everyone else, I almost couldn’t believe how easy this was. Thank you for not making me beg.”
“My husband’s job moved us here on short notice. We didn’t have time to fight credit issues from a medical bankruptcy. Harbor Gates worked with us, the landlord met us at the property and walked us through everything. Old-school customer service.”
“I’m self-employed and that scares most landlords off. Harbor Gates didn’t treat me like a risk because I don’t have a W-2. They reviewed my bank statements and tax returns and approved me the same day.”
“Section 8 isn’t a dirty word here. They matched me to a landlord who participates and the whole process was respectful and straightforward. My voucher was approved within a week.”
“I had two rentals sitting vacant for over six months because my old PM was rejecting every applicant for credit. Switched to Harbor Gates and both were filled in under three weeks. My cashflow finally makes sense again.”
“I was worried about the no-credit-check approach — wouldn’t I get bad tenants? The opposite has been true. My Harbor Gates tenants stay longer and pay on time. Two of them have been in my homes more than two years.”
“The team handles everything. I get a deposit notification when a tenant pays rent and a tax statement at year-end. That’s honestly all I want from property management. The rest of my time is mine.”
“I’m a single mom and the rejection from one rental after another was wearing me down. Harbor Gates was the first place that responded with respect. I cried when I got the approval email. We’ve been here six months and my daughter has her own room for the first time.”
