Valley King Properties

This is my second time using Valley King Apartment Finders. What a wonderful group of people! I was helped first by Dianna Zink and couple years ago, then by Judy Ann Jakubic the second. So thankful that I ever found this establishment! The service is exceptional!

I used this place to find an apartment for my 3 young daughters and I. Judy Ann was recommended to me by a friend, and she seemed very nice. However, she could only suggest one place for us and it was a run down complex in west Phoenix that was nicknamed (I found out later) New Jack City. I needed to move quickly so I reluctantly paid over $ 900 to Valley Kings directly. I was shown an apartment that had an obvious roach issue. I tried to be accommodating to the management by giving them over two weeks to get rid of the problem (after signing my lease). I stayed in a hotel at my expense for that time. They said the apartment was ready and I moved my dining room table in, then left for 30 min. When I returned, my table and chairs were literally covered in roaches, it was like something from a movie. Management was no help so I called Judy Ann and tried to get her to find me something livable. She basically told me that my money was non-​refundable and her job was done. I couldn’t move in to that apartment with my 1, 6 and 8 year olds. I called the health department and after failing an inspection, the management gave me an apartment with no roaches. However, a meth dealer lived in the apartment before me so I was constantly dealing with drug addicts at my door at all hours of the night and day and the complex was just blatantly unsafe. I couldn’t get out of the lease so now I have an eviction on my credit. Calling Valley King was the worst decision I could have made. I even filed a complaint against Valley Kings with the Better Business Bureau and the manager of the 35^th Ave office kept calling me trying to talk me into retracting the complaint. I refused since they refused to help me after I paid them almost $ 1000. I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone, ever.

Jody at Valley King was very professional and worked within my budget. She took the time to find out exactly what I needed and also asked me what interested me when looking for a new residence. She also treated me fairly. She didn’t judge me or make me feel uncomfortable about my background or credit history. I definitely recommend Jody and Valley King to anyone who is in need of assistance when looking for a new home.

I can breath a sigh of relief thanks to Valley King. (and let me tell you, this is a huge relief)
Me: Accepted a new job in a city that I have no family, friends, or friends with couches. I have three weeks. I live in Tucson (not terribly far) but I am still working and have no time off during the week. (and let me add that I’ve only been in this city a short time so I have no idea what is what and where is where)
Valley King: Incredibly kind when I walked in the door. Helpful. Did not waste my time. Honest. Thorough. (Thank you Patty!)
I have used an apartment locator one other time and although that was not a bad experience, I truly felt that I was meant to find Valley King and that they would help me. I landed a great apartment, within my budget, and in plenty of time to plan my move.
