York Security Service

Recently rented a residential property in downtown Raleigh managed by York. Offering some advice to prospective tenants, please think twice before renting any residence offered by this management group. Mold everywhere in the HVAC system on top of a huge list of items not properly taken care of before we moved in. Property was not cleaned, dryer wasn't hooked up properly, bugs, stove was out of place, etc Please have someone inspect any property you intend to lease from this company, save yourself the aggravation I'm dealing with.

I would concur with a previous poster about York suing a restaurant owner in Emerald Isle because this establishment has the audacity (SARCASM) to be kind and thoughtful and gives his employees Sundays off. As long as York gets the rent, who cares what day the place is closed? I hope the PR blowback is worth. And to top it off, the York website is not accepting messages through the "contact us" link.

York has been our property manager for Cameron Village Condos for a number of years. They have served our condo association in the most professional manner. They are responsive and have provided excellent guidance and direction. I have served on the board and worked closely with York over the years. They are an excellent company.

This past year we launched our new business serving the greater Triangle area and we were having a hard time locating the perfect space for our showroom. We connected with Julie Paul and let me just say, she was nothing short of a saint. Julie helped us locate and negotiate our lease agreement for our new business and was very patient and thoughtful in her dealings with us.

The professionalism of Julie (and the entire York team) has been totally stress-free and seamless. The management team at York Properties helped us quickly and beautifully upfit the space to suit our needs. Many months after opening, we find that Julie continues to check in with us and provides amazing customer service. We have had such and incredible experience working the the entire team at York Properties, we'd highly recommend working with York to anyone. Phoebe Briley, Jacuzzi Hot Tubs of the Triangle

I try to contact them many times about property was interested to rent they ignore my phone call my emails and at last I stopped by there office they seemed like they only want one type of people to deal with I saw some people reviewing them they are racist I guess they are

This company has sued one of their tenants in our local area for a lease violation. Apparently, the restaurant here decided to close on Sundays to give their heavily burned out staff a break from the post covid summer business boom. It was an attempt to allow their staff to spend time with their families recuperating and preparing for the week ahead.

Their staff is thrilled but York Properties saw this as a reason to sue them despite the staggering losses of business suffered by the restaurant industry during over a year of pandemic fallout. This is unconscionable. Companies like this deserve the worst rating they can get. Shame on York Properties.!

I was very impressed working with York Properties scouting commercial properties. Julie Paul was very professional and personable assisting our efforts. I am pleased to recommend York and Mrs. Paul in particular.

I live in a building that has been managed by York Properties for 25 years. We have been consistently pleased with the quality of management, as well as the value that York Properties offers to our building's owners. Our personal manager, Anna Claire, is responsive, knowledgeable and friendly. We couldn't be more pleased with York's outstanding work for all of us at the Cotton Mill.

I have lived in a community managed by York Properties for over 12 years (being on the HOA board of directors 9 of those years). Anna Claire and the rest of the York Team are the best in the business in the Raleigh! They are efficient, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive.

York Properties is closed on Sunday. I assume they do that to allow their team to unwind from a hard week at work, spend time with loved ones, and worship at the church of their choice. York, however, has sued Rucker Johns in Emerald Isle, a property tenant, for closing on Sundays. That's disgusting.

Do not hire them as a security company. Their employees do not seem trained enough to know what a parking violation is. We have multiple neighbors who park their broken down cars on the side of the street while our working car is parked on the street in front of our house. This is ridiculous and obviously there are too many people employed to be bored and writing random parking violations. Also, they cannot read as they thought my car was a completely different make.

I, along with other neighbors are now caught in the middle of York Properties and the City of Raleigh. There are two blank, first come first serve parking spots available off of Nichols Dr. for residents and guests to park. Due to the fact that each condo only has ONE numbered spot many of us will utilize these spaces and alternate with roommates.

Two days ago I received a parking citation from the City of Raleigh for $30. I took the ticket to Yorks office and was told to my face, clear as day that, "Let me make a copy of this ticket, you will NOT have to pay this, we have an attorney on the case." This morning, 24 hours later, I received an email from the same woman suggesting that I go ahead and pay the ticket because, "York is just the management company for the association-we do not make decisions." floored!

Now I will have to go through the city in order to fight for an appeal. On top of it all, they have not even put cones out or signs or anything to indicate that these spaces are only NOW unavailable. Why would they just let residents continue to rack up parking tickets? There should be a clearer explanation and a much speedier resolution for the time being. VERY UNSATISFIED

We had car issues with in one of the York properties. Officer Champion lived up to his name in assuring us he would make sure the car stayed safe and sound until towing arrangements could be made. He is wonderful asset, professional asset for York.

I will never rent from York again. I have only rented from them in Raleigh, once on purpose and then again on accident - they bought out the building I was living in unfortunately. Was treated unfairly and they really took advantage of me and my situation. This company is going to ruin a lot of Raleigh. Nightmare. Absolute nightmare. Raised my rent every year no matter what. Was awful with addressing maintenance issues. Rude maintenance people.

My first landlord told me at my move out inspection that they send maintenance people in unnecessarily to look through people's apartments. Multiple times I would know they had been in my apartment (set up a way to know) and they would not tell me that they were coming by. STAY FAR AWAY FROM YORK PROPERTIES.
