Our Unfortunate Experience with SELECT NEST MANAGEMENT, LLC, DallasWe worked with Select Nest Management
We worked with Select Nest Management, LLC, after they contacted us seeking housing for Lahaina Fire victims. We had previously housed several fire-affected families and were willing to help again, so we entered into a lease with Select Nest Management.
When that lease ended, and we returned to the property, we found that the tenants—along with six pets that had not been disclosed or approved under the lease—had caused damage requiring more than $10,000 in repairs. We provided Select Nest Management with over 340 photos and detailed invoices documenting the damage. We did not pursue the company for the full amount and applied the security deposit toward only part of the cost.
Despite this experience, we were willing to enter into a second lease based on a mutual understanding that no pets would be permitted going forward. A new six-month lease was fully executed. However, the required move-in funds including the first month’s rent were not paid. During this time, Select Nest Management’s representative proposed amendments that would have materially altered the terms of the already-signed lease, including reducing the security deposit to $2,000 and adjusting certain timelines in ways that were inconsistent with Hawaii’s statutory requirements. Select Nest Management has not moved forward, never took possession, leaving the property unexpectedly vacant. This rental income is important for us to cover the mortgage and our ongoing housing costs, and the unexpected vacancy has created significant financial strain for us.
These concerns caused us to consult an attorney. As part of their review, our attorney confirmed through state business registries that Select Nest Management, LLC does not appear as a registered entity in either Texas or Hawaii under that name. We felt it was important to understand who we were contracting with, which is why we sought legal guidance.
After posting a brief review summarizing our experience, Select Nest Management sent us a demanding email requesting removal of the review. We have the right to share our factual experience, which is why we are providing additional details here. We stand by the accuracy of our review and do not intend to remove it. Our intention is not to harm the company, but to share a factual account of our experience so that other landlords and property owners can make informed decisions. Transparency helps ensure that expectations are clear for everyone involved.
We remain open to a fair and professional resolution and hope that Select Nest Management will work constructively to address the issue.
