You’re earning straight cash flow and holding onto a valuable and appreciating asset.

Decas have been very proactive for me across my portfolio and Paige is really good helping me get information and working on upgrading the properties. When you have had the same Agents for over 10 years it gives you confidence in them.

I am a vendor with this company for over the past 5 years. I couldn't be more impressed on they way they run this tight operation. I have never had one complaint and always get paid on time, everytime! I've worked with Paige for 5 years here and another 5 years at another company and she is one in a million. She knows her stuff and I have always trusted her with any questions that may arise while I am performing my duties for Decas Group. I am very lucky to be associated with this company and enjoy it alot.

I was a tenant with Decas Group for nearly 6 years, and my experience was exceptional. Their responsiveness to maintenance requests was consistently impressive, with quick arrivals and efficient repairs or replacements whenever needed. Even in the face of rising rent prices, they demonstrated understanding and flexibility, working with me to find a solution that allowed me to continue living in this beautiful area within my budget. When it came time to move, the transition was made incredibly smooth by Allison, who guided me every step of the way, ensuring a stress-free and easy relocation. While I had to move due to family circumstances, I've made it clear to them that I fully intend to return and rent from them again in the future. I wholeheartedly recommend Decas Group, giving them a perfect 10/10 rating for their outstanding service.

I have been renting from this company a little over a year now and I must admit they are phenomenal. First the application process was easy and they got back to me immediately…moving in was a piece of cake they are so easy to deal with. I have had a couple of issues within my house that needed maintenance and it’s normal things like a new thermostat or toilet may not be working correctly and as soon as I put in a maintenance request they were always here next day at the latest. I refer all my friends and family to them and I will continue to rent from them. This is not a paid review I am a real person and a real life tenant and I highly recommend renting your next place from The Decas Group!!!!!
