Pros

I joined Southwood Realty after a long 14 year career with another large management company. For the first time in many years I finally feel as though there are no walls between me and the executive management team. There is no better work life balance then the one Southwood supports. For once I am not overloaded to the the point that work has to go home with me or there being a need to put in excessive over time that goes unrecognized.

Cons

Although they are a little behind the industry norm what they do works! It was an adjustment but it was definitely one worth making to me.

Pros

I can’t think of any.

Cons

Ive been with the company for about 8 months now and I’m actively looking for another leasing job solely because I hate this company. The only reason I’ve stayed this long is because I really do love my manager. The commissions are terrible. You might as well not even count them because they amount to hardly anything. $75 for a year lease is all you get and it’s even less than that once taxes are taken out. Any other company would be ATLEAST $100. They are the cheapest company you will ever work for. They don’t want to spend money on ANYTHING. When I met the owner, he was the most unfriendly human I’ve ever encountered. One resident that was in the office at the time even said “who was that. Why was he so rude.” She was appalled that he was the owner.
