5/5I highly recommend using Uptown Locators and specifically Arthur Greenstein! I readily admit I am a very picky and discriminating seeker of housing. I was looking for a higher end higher end rental than Arthur was used to. He was patient, observant, non-pushy, and helpful in helping me locate a condo rental I am very satisfied with. He worked with me for over 4 hours looking at 10 places taking past 7PM on a Saturday. There was never any pressure and he just wanted to help me find a place I was happy with. If I am renting again, I will find Arthur. If I choose to buy, I will also consider using Arthur. Arthur's service was so good, That is how much I appreciated the services of Arthur and Uptown Locators.

5/5I used to hate moving and would even stay at an apartment complex longer than I wanted to go avoid it. Not anymore! Arthur Greenstein from uptown Locators made my move so easy. Not only did he find me a great apartment with all of my requirements in thew area I wanted, he arranged for my move to be free which saved me so much money I needed. I'll use Arthur Greenstein to help me relocate anytime I need it again. The movers were fast and courteous. They even finished my move when it started raining without ruining any of my stuff! They hustled to meet the estimated time. That's customer service. And they also rent furniture for apartments. That's really COOL.

5/5We recently sold our home and had less than 7 days to find an apartment and get moved. Arthur Greenstein made this process so easy for us. He called and we discussed what my family and I needed and by the end of the day we had a list of apartments that fit our needs to go look at. With in 24hrs we found our apartment and had the Free Move set up. Arthur Greenstein even helped with the moving set up when I was having trouble contacting the moving folks he made a call and got that set up as well. I would definitely recommend Arthur Greenstein and Uptown Locators to friends and family. Amazing.

Hey, you should mention Arthur Greenstien by Arthur Greenstein's full name again, that definitely makes Arthur Greenstein sounds like a legitimate guy who's not hiring people out to write positive reviews about Arthur Greenstein in a situation where you sell a home but oops forgot to realize that the fact means that you can't live there anymore and have to rush out and find a place to live with Arthur Greenstein's help.
Arthur Greenstein.

Pavel, You have definitely NOT been paying attention to the SEO bandwagon. The counting of the search keywords shall be three and three shall be the keyword count. One shall NOT reference Arthur Greenstein once or mention Arthur Greenstein twice unless it is succeeded by a third Arthur Greenstein.
Four is right out.
And if you don't believe me.... look at the highly successful pattern of three exact correctly spelled mentions here and here (couple of "twosie" slackers that obviously missed the 10:30 meeting)
And Pavel, you're too hard on the guy. He's obviously very very consistently worth triple mention. And Fernando, David and Tameka (and dont' forget Daniel) are appreciative lots of places - but mostly in New York.
You're just jealous.

5/5Tameka Norris helped me sell a condo this year and I was continually amazed at her commitment and dedication. I knew I'd picked a top notch realtor when I once locked myself out of the house at 10:30 at night and she came over with a smile on her face to let me in.
Then I had to move out of town while my unit was on the market and Tameka filled in for me in every way, from bringing in contractors to make some repairs to clearing out the last of my belongings before closing. She even drove to the offices of the other owners in the building to get their signatures on a closing document. I don't know how I could have made it through the process without her!
Tameka Norris repeatedly went the "extra mile" and handled everything with integrity and professionalism.

5/5My husband and I used Uptown Locators 1 and Half years ago to find our apartment in Arlington. The service was great and we found the perfect place. This past year, when we decided to buy a condo, we went with Uptown Locators again...and couldn't have been happier. Susan Carroll was our real estate agent and she is absolutely the best out there!
She is so knowledgeable and really helped us through the buying process. She was always there to answer any questions; without any added pressure. We couldn't have found the home of our dreams without her!

5/5I went looking for apartments with my roommate for about two months without any luck. Craigslist didn't work out and after bad experiences with other real estate offices, we weren't sure if we wanted to try out another one. A friend of my roommate's recommended Uptown Locators though, and we ended up finally finding our perfect apartment! Everything went smoothly, the agents were really nice and we didn't feel pressured into anything. They negotiated with the landlords for the best deal possible even with out us requesting this. We got a great deal, I would definitely recommend Uptown Locators. Thanks Uptown Locators.

5/5I am an out of work engineer and a separated family who was having trouble making rent payments for my place and living comfortably.
Then Uptown Locators came into the picture. Tameka and Johnny helped me examine my budget and adjust and find a place that was spectacular and met all my needs. My new place fits me better and has all the amenities I could ever need.
They helped me get into my new place and even found a way to negotiate the landlord to lower rents so that I could make ends meet and help my family.
They are life savers and the best company I have ever dealt with!!!
Thanks Johnny and Tameka. You are the greatest. And to the guy who keeps emailing the same bad review for 2 years!! Get over it, you were probably a jerk who didn't pay rent because these guys are a dream come true.

5/5Last year my girlfriend and I moved into an apartment that is managed by Uptown Locators. We have only previously lived in small properties that were self-managed by the owners. Because we were not familiar with contacting a property management company for maintenance items, we initially questioned the service level we would receive when calling them. Our reservations were proven to be wrong over the last year. The secretary has been very polite and responsive to our needs whenever we call, and maintenance (Johnny) was extremely helpful and friendly. Overall, my girlfriend and I have been very satisfied by the level of service provided by this company. Thanks Johnny & Uptown Locators.

5/5I had been hunting for a great apartment for weeks, and was starting to get a little depressed about what was out there. I contacted Uptown Locators, and Tameka helped me find the perfect apartment in just two days. Not only that, but she showed me several nice apartments that I would have never found on my own, and had a great sense of what would and would not work for me. I would definitely recommend Uptown Locators with zero reservations.

I had only ONE day in the city, and we finished with tours, paperwork, and lease within three hours (including an hour lunch!). Everyone in the office was super nice, honest, and had my interests in mind. It's a great service if you want to live in the heart of the city. Ask for Tameka...she rocks! Thanks :)

He asked me about my needs (which were very specific) and I explained that I was having trouble finding an apartment that would allow two very small dogs. Johnny showed me two properties that were perfect for me, and in less than two hours I made a deposit on my new place. I had awful experiences with two other realtors who wouldn't even talk to me when they found out I had two dogs. Thanks to Johnny, we have a great new place to live! You cannot beat the service and expertise this company provides. Thanks...............

5/5I worked with Tameka Norris twice, once to find an apartment and two years later to find a house to rent. She is very good about making time to fit your schedule... she will go looking for properties on evenings and weekends. She's also very good at listening to what you want and helping you find that... she's not afraid to point out things that might not work for you. Finally, she's willing to go out looking two or three times to make sure you find what you want. She's very helpful.

I have recommended Uptown Locators to my co-workers and family! I hope to work with them again in the future. Thanks.

I imagine our readers are smart enough to see through this -- and maybe Uptown Locators has scads of happy customers with common ip addresses and email addresses indicating they are businesses from other cities (Las Vegas being a big fave). Maybe this isn't a review-gaming scam, but an organic outpouring of very specifically worded reviews.
Besides, positive shill reviews are SO early 2010. The latest thing is to encourage negatives: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/28/bus...

Your kindness, professional demeanor and humor guided Johnny to make what I think is the right decision in choosing Uptown Locators as his new home. You set the bar very high, and easily clear it. You would be an asset to any organization and I know that you were a major factor in Johnny's decision. I am sure he will find many friends at Uptown Locators, in fact, I hope he has already found one in you. I look forward to seeing you in the times that come!

5/5I used to live in uptown and decided to search for a high-rise in downtown. After looking at numerous properties, i was referred to the Richardson. I found the staff (Johnny & Tameka) to be very friendly and helpful. The apartments and views are amazing. I moved into a two bedroom unit that was brand new and beautiful to boot for a very reasonable price. The rooms flow very well, and the bathrooms and closet space are more than ample. Having moved from an apartment that was next to awful 6-day-a-week construction, the quiet and peace at the apartment is wonderful!

5/5We HEART Johnny!! Johnny was a true gift to us during our search for an apartment in Dallas. We are moving from Los Angeles and we knew nothing about Dallas. Johnny took the the time to take us to all the apartments we wanted to see and even showed us around the different areas of Dallas. I feel like we made the best choice with our apartment locator. Johnny took all of my fears of moving away. He was beyond helpful, courteous, and friendly instead of feeling pressured to sign a lease he made me feel comfortable making an informed decision. I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about this man. All of my nerves went away while working with him. I have never had the pleasure of such fantastic customer service. We will definitely use him in a few years when we are ready to buy a house. Thank you Thank you THANK YOU Johnny!

She was on top of it every step of the way. She found us the perfect place and we got a great move in deal. We are now in our new apartment and very satisfied.

He was patient and when I kept changing my mind he was right there to send me new listings. It's very hard to find other apartment locaters that would have the same patience and great attitude to take the time and help you find exactly what you're looking for. Uptown Locators was well worth the time to call... they found me different listings and set up me up appointments to view the apartments... I mean i didn't do none of the work! LOL. Anyways I would recommend Uptown Locators to friends and family.

An excellent choice as he was easy to talk to, easy to reach with quick responses, and very organized. the real estate process is quite stressful but he made it a much less hectic experience.

5/5Easiest thing in Uptown! David was more than helpful and saved my girlfriend and I weeks of shopping for an apartment. He gave us the 411 on each community and showed as a wide range of places. He also brought up points that we didn't think about.

5/5Yana is the best. I was looking at some apartments on my own and one day was on the internet and I decided to register for Uptown Locators. I did not realize I would be getting a call from someone that would take as good of care of me as she did. At one point I decided to wait a few months before looking at apartments again. Yana thank you for all you did.

hey look, it's another new user posting another overwhelmingly complimentary comment. who has the same IP address as the last new user who also loved this company. when i see a bunch of compliments coming from different names but yet are all from the same computer, i find that to be very suspicious and it causes me to like the company less, not more

To be ... um... more than fair, I do know of some companies that basically sit the happy client down on their machine before they leave the office and point them to a couple of recommendation sites before they leave the office.
Ya know - while they're there, while you have the browser up, while they're thinking about it --- and do all the up front finding the sites and stuff.
Still, the track record kinda speaks for itself, eh?
So how's David and Tameka, I wonder?

He knows the Inner Loop ares very well (Museum/Montose?Heights), is totally up front with you (stuff to stay away from/if what you want is way out of your budget, etc), and always makes himself available around your schedule-truly recommend for your renting needs! Thanks David..

And I'm so glad Dallas finally got a Montrose Heights to go along with its Highland Park. Till now, Richmond VA was the only place I knew had both. And finally we have an Inner Loop Area.
Wow, Uptown Locators can relocate entire cities.

5/5Happy Tenant Uptown Locators recently sent out a mass email to all tenants and write "what they would like about their experiences with Uptown Locators" (their exact words). People that are happy do not often go on and leave reviews, angry people often do. So as a VERY HAPPY TENANT I am taking a moment to let you know that these guys have always been there for me, no matter what I've needed. I have actually lived in two different properties of theirs. When I was forced to move due to job relocation, they helped put me in a new apartment in the town that I needed. Don't listen to only the angry tenants, this is a really good company. Thanks Uptown Locators.

He was always pro-active in marketing the property, had several Open Houses and always kept me informed and educated on the process. He is highly professional, respectful and very funny! If you want positive results buying or selling a property, Michael is the person you want in your team. Thanks Michael and Uptown Locators.

5/5AMAZING REALTY SERVICE! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.We bought a Condo with Uptown Locators help and were extremely happy working with her. First of all, they gives you the attention as if you are their only client and works extremely hard and is great at what they do. We had a very long process and they never lost focus or determination to find a place that worked for us. Expect to get answers to your e-mails at all hours of the day and diligent negotiation. They also have a great group of professional contacts of mortgage brokers, real estate lawyers etc, and we felt like we had a great team of people looking out for our interest. Uptown Locators is definitely the best. If you want a great real estate agent, I highly recommend Uptown Locators.

Oh, my speaking of plagiarism -- YOU stole EssayWritingPaper's glowing review HERE to use there, too. How surprising.
You people need to learn to branch out. It's not nice to steal the beauty of one condo shopping experience after another from each other. It makes me weep that people might read these identical cut and paste tomes of
imaginaryauthentic happiness and satisfaction and think that there may be anything but genuine respectable reviews by actual people going on here.Ciminey - for all the limited choice of content and user names, one might be confused into thinking there was some office worker paid to just pump gold leaf reviews out every few hours.
And I KNOW we wouldn't want that. BTW, How's Tameka?

I don't know why this stuff fascinates me, but it is amazing what perceived anonymity does to people. Like that perennial guy who boldly cuts you off in traffic in that huge monster truck and then goes home to play video games in his mother's basement. Do people really not realize that people around them are smart?
Dear testimonial.... huge hint for validity: If you run out of real names, use the same one for identical comments. It adds a flair of "realism."

Actually - I DO think they read these. They have adjusted their posting schemes in the past 3 months. For instance, while Amalia just appeared here and at yellowbot within minutes
http://www.yellowbot.com/user/33w4kh8
Her postings are different. I predict a new name will have this heartfelt tale of a friend's life changing experience no sooner than this afternoon.
For those keeping score, Amalia (Yellowbot) Used Uptown Locators twice herself and thanks Yana - and interesting oversight here, but perhaps she's feeling modest.

2/5Falling down on the job.
Apparently, Anasta also had them SELL her Dallas home -- which went amazingly well also.
Is there NOTHING these wunderkinde cannot do impeccably? --- Maybe she spreads her praise around evenly as DAVID did the selling and obviously Yana (here) did the apartment hunting. What a TEAM!
AMAZINGLY -- right alongside that glowing report is AmyRay's heartfelt rendition of a daring trek from South Dakota to take residence in our fair state for school.
Man - what does a company have to DO around here to get a Nobel for Placement?
Overall, the reports are creative, showing newer strokes in localizing the comments. Good marks for actually referencing the correct state. Still, the lack of continuity across free online rating systems leaves an emptiness, a feeling of ennui, incompleteness, if you will, a distrust. But good improvement for our young marketers.
We look forward to many future missives from these diligent young authors.

Perhaps the most credible to date.
In the same hour, Margo became a member of Pegasus, Yellowbot and Judy's Book.
I feel somewhat cheated since Margo’s enthusiasm ebbed and flowed. Here at Pegusus we see Yana as competent, worthy of comment, but not the “above and beyond” report at Yellowbot where
And thus, Margo joins a growing legion of Yana fans, placed nobly beside Anastasialille and AmyRayFord.
Over at Judy’s Book, right above Asialillie and AmyRay, Margo gives us a better view into this underappreciated but obviously talented real estate professional, bestowing on her perhaps the best praise available
While separately, these simple compliments are solid positive tribute to dedicated professional, together, each telling a different side to what is obviously a faceted and nuanced move requiring much follow-up and even some elusive and daunting approval process, one can only admire the selfless work these individuals commit themselves to, day in and day out.
................................
BUT WAIT!! THIS JUST IN!!!
Apparently Margo D -- just today, thanks DAVID for his help. .... OH the HUMANITY! is there some mistake, some cleft in her allegiance?
Just below we see all our old friends:
Anastasia – Having just flown in from out of state - a detail missed in our version…alas
AmyRay – This being the first time she used Uptown…
Amalia – having driven all over on her own.. finally resorting to Uptown….
They are all right here. It’s beautiful. Johnnie H, Julianna, and yet, my favorites, Velma and Violet… where are they? Where? Not either? Oh sadness.
I can seek no more. I weep. I turn away.
