LR Management

I had originally seen myself making this my career & working with LR for a long time as they had very good pay wages and the apartments SEEMED to be much better than the company I previously worked for. But, I learned after just a short amount of time how stressful it can be.

 As a Leasing Agent/ Manager, I it felt as though there was no real help close to me. Quality maintenance technicians were few and far between and maintenance techs are often spread so thin that there is only 1 maintenance tech at most properties who corporate requires to be on call for 3 properties sometimes for weeks at a time, diagnose or work on inoperable AC units & most times they are not certified. Good employees are hard to keep because LR would not to pay what they are truly worth and/or often times move you to other properties you originally did not agree to work at or you having working along doing the job of 3 people and only being financially accommodated for your own . In order to keep your team together you have to feel the manager is looking out for you, I noticed my technicians who worked at other LR properties did not feel this way with other managers when they communicated with me. I was fortunate to build a good relationship with my team but noticed a lot of employees don't have this. I had to feel I was attached to my phone 24/7; even on days off and out of town because it never felt like there was management support and I was terrified to leave my properties unmanaged without me. MANY times I got calls when I was on "vacation" and had to do work however I could. I never actually got away from the job when I took time off. Tenants were a whole other horror story half the time depending on the property you were at. I worked hard which led me to feeling overworked and taking on too much and feeling underpaid for what I was putting in. It felt there was no support much of the time and I was on my own to figure it out. In my time there I saw a concerning amount of turnover at my own property and other properties and property managers (who would have been immediate supervisors to my position). This led to feeling there is no true stability or the true help you need. Not to mention often times residents are forced to live with mold, no hot water for weeks and a time, shootings etc.
It taught me a lot and I absolutely loved some of my coworkers and residents I met  but the pay and stress were not worth it in the end. A similar story that I have heard from many former employees. There needs to be some major changes in training and structure for positions in order to limit turnover, favoritism in the company needs to stop and upper management needs to take accountability for the mismanagement of not only their employees but their residents also. It is a shame they have not actually reached out to former employees to better build. There are some major improvements that need to be made to the company to make it better and keep good employees. Read Google reviews- they are the truth!  Unless you are looking to be used, severely stressed, overworked, work in a hostile, chaotic environment where upper management gossips to residents and other coworkers about you and threaten job security when you speak up I would suggest you RUN! You have NO idea what you're walking into!

I was referred to LR Management from a previous manager I had at a different company. Interview went great, they gave my what I wanted in terms of compensation so I thought hey, this should be good! Oh boy, was I wrong. 

When I started at the property, IT WAS A COMPLETE MESS. I had no choice but to single-handedly clean up the maintenance shop, outside of the shop and countless other areas after years and years of neglectful activities. 

I was told I was the "supervisor" over techs that couldn't even change a lightbulb. But with the workload and VERY HIGH expectations put solely on me, I was distracted from my role as a lead trying to get the property to a place where I could actually do my job. 

I spent almost everyday out of the month LR Management let me work for them cleaning up their property and organizing it so others could find what they need and do their job better. None of it mattered.

The management was the true problem. They put an impossible amount of work on maintenance and if it doesnt get done then its the chopping block! They set you up for failure right out the gate. Don't even think about working here. 

After working for LR, I'm never doing what I did for them for anyone else. I mattered so little to them, that I feel foolish for even lifting a finger to help them in the first place.

That property has never been cleaner than when I worked there. I expect it to go back to complete chaos. I no longer care. 

This was one of the worst, stressful and lonely experiences I've ever had in my life. 

LR has definitely ruined something I was trying to build internally. Totally took that positive outlook from me. 

Working for property management companies like this in 2025 is a really bad deal for those who work with their hands. 

Steer clear of LR Management. The management and communication between properties is the worst I have ever seen.
I ended up leaving after I was being switched to a new location about every day...some mornings I didn't even know which property I was supposed to work at. They also cut my hours in half.

The managers love to point blame and don't take responsibility when things go wrong. I was hired as a leasing consultant under the impression that I was the "good guy" that the residents could talk to. The manager was to deal with problems that arise and fall out of the leasing consultants power to handle. This was never the case. The managers like to hide in their offices and have you deliver the bad news, further angering the resident, as they want to speak directly with the manager. 


Be prepared to be moved around a lot. Don't get too comfortable in one place. Being flexible wasn't a problem at first until I was made to work at a property an hour away from my house in the middle of winter. I would never have accepted a position that far away. 


Once the switching around started up, I was under a lot of stress and pressure to keep the properties leased up and keep vacant units at a minimum. That is very hard to do when you are always in a different location. You cannot keep up the proper follow-up that is required. 


Management never cared when I would explain myself and it became evident that they were trying to push me out when I was almost written up for taking a company given PERSONAL day. 


There is so much more, but I think you get the gist of it. Save yourself a major headache and lots of tears...it's not worth it.

LR Management may appear to offer growth opportunities, but advancement is often driven by favoritism or urgent staffing needs rather than experience or performance.

The company has high turnover. Instead of addressing internal issues, employees are frequently let go or moved between properties in an attempt to fix problems, creating instability and preventing long-term success.

Policies are not applied equally across employees, which raises fairness concerns. Management quality varies, accountability is unclear, and reassignment or termination decisions often feel abrupt rather than performance-based.

The company does not offer commission, which is discouraging in a performance-driven industry. Expectations are high, yet standards are inconsistently enforced.

If you are seeking long-term employment and stability, this is likely not the right environment. High turnover, reactive staffing practices, unequal policy enforcement, and lack of performance incentives are major red flags prospective employees should carefully consider.

Nothing seemed right from day one and trying to navigate a role that changed from week to week without proper training was tough. Management constantly put employees at odds with one another instead of building an atmosphere of team work and togetherness. I can’t even count the number of times my daily work schedule was changed by upper management. This lead to a level of mistrust between employees and upper management. The condition of the apartments that we were asked to lease were run down and in need of major repairs and updates. I think the worst thing was being told that we had to lie to the tenants about needed repairs and issues. If you enjoy being undervalued and unappreciated, this is your place to work. If not, steer clear and go with a property company that actually owns their properties and maintains them well. 

Following leads, answering phones (that are recorded), touring. I did not have a good experience with the property I worked at. I really like being a leasing specialist because I love to interact with new prospects and current residents. I like to help them with whatever they need help with. Workplace culture was very stressfull due to change over in managers and people getting fired right & left when the new manager got there. They fired me one week after returning to  work after coming back from FMLA. The manager I worked with fabricated an error I had made in some paperwork while I was out on FMLA and got me fired after placing me at a equally bad property.  I do not recommend to work for this company.

I’ve been with LR Management for about 16 months, starting with no leasing or sales experience—just a background in customer service. Since then, I’ve learned more than I ever expected. This company truly rewards hard work and ambition. I’ve been recognized, promoted, and given raises for consistently going above and beyond my role.

LR Management isn’t for someone looking to coast. You’ll be challenged daily, taught skills beyond your job title, and expected to grow constantly. The pace is fast, and the expectations are high—but if you’re driven, eager to learn, and thrive under pressure, you’ll succeed here. This company pushes you to reach your full potential and shows you exactly what you’re capable of achieving.

The location you're working, as well as the people you're directly working with have a large impact in this field of work. Co-workers are everything. The crew I work with is amazing, communicative, respectful and fun to be around. Every property has its issues, but working on site with my team has been wonderful. Upper management is helpful and easy to get in contact with, and they always help if I am in need of guidance or cannot handle situations alone. I would definitely recommend this company if you're just starting out in the field, or would like to progress in the property management industry.
