Choosing the Right Management Company
Choosing the right management company requires thorough research. Consider reviews from other communities, but beware of fake reviews. Many companies use false reviews to appear better than they are. Watch out for generic language peppered with positive or negative terms.
Poor grammar and spelling are a common giveaway a business has faked its reviews. Non-descriptive accounts are another sign you could be dealing with a fake review.
