Kudos to Blake from Promove

This is long overdue but as the saying goes,better late than never.

Anyone who knows me knows just how much I detest hunting for apartments.The whole process stresses me out entirely way too much.I hate looking through apartment magazines that show glossy pictures of apartments but neglect to tell you that those pictures where taken over 2 years ago and that the apartments have never been repainted since then.I hate that on the phone the apartment managers tell you you’ll pay XX amount per month in rent only for the price to go up a few more hundred dollars when you get to the actual complex.I hate how magazines never tell you about the neighborhood the apartment complex is in until you waste your gas and drive there only to find that the complex is in crackhead paradise…I could go on and rant here but thats not the purpose of this post….

…A few weeks ago,I decided to downsize and move into an apartment.I went to the supermarket and picked up one of those apartment guides and went to check out about 3 of the apartments listed.As expected,they over promised and under delivered and needless to say I was very,very angry and extremely frustrated.I was about to give up on the whole apartment search thing for the day when my friend and I happened to drive by the Atlanta Promove office (we were lost trying to find our way back to the interstate!) so anyway,I figured why not just stop in and see what they have to offer.I was very skeptical.

The mood in the office was professional but laid back.They had representatives all over the place…some helping clients,some on the phone,others on computers.The receiptionist took me to an empty meeting room and told me a rep would be in shortly to assist me.To make the long story short,in walked this tall,very polite and professional guy who introduced himself as Blake.After exchanging pleasantries,he asked me which areas I was interested in living in,how much I was willing to spend,what kind of apartment I was considering and all that good stuff.I told him and he was able to quickly put together a few apartments for me to look at based on my needs.

Blake also followed up with me via email and phone from the day I walked into the Promove office to the day I finally signed my lease….yes,thanks to Blake and Promove,I found a nice apartment in a very nice neighbourhood.My apartment is close to everything I need so no more ridiculous commutes for me.Plus,I was able to get $300 off my rent for the first two months.The leasing person had forgotten to mention this promo to me but good ole Blake knew about it and he called the leasing office and inquired about it on my behalf!Now if thats not good service,then I don’t know what it.

Oh,did I mention,I never paid Blake or Promove a single cent for their service??

Thats right,they helped me find an apartment for FREE…free as in I did not pay them a penny.So,if you’re looking for an apartment in Atlanta,Georgia or Dallas,Texas..hit up promove!
