Pabst, Kinney & Associates, Inc. at 248 Redondo Avenue, Long Beach, California.

We applied for an apartment using Pabst, Kinney & Associates, Inc earlier this month and to be fair the employees are sweet and kind people who are trying to do the right thing by helping applicants find a home, but in reality they are completely incompetent individuals.

The application process was supposed to take 2-5 business days and in reality it took over TWO WEEKS. The reason my wife and I got rejected was because a "more suitable applicant applied to the same property" which is understandable, but they should not have taken two weeks to come to that consensus... that's a clear definition of incompetence.

They also had me ask my previous landlord and employer to CALL THEM to confirm my history... this threw me off, isn't that the sole purpose of their jobs? I know Long Beach is known for the relax way of life, but geez talk about sloth-like behavior.

So we ended up losing 80 dollars on application fees, and even worst, two weeks of our time waiting for them to do their jobs. It is sad there are predatory companies such as Pabst, Kinney & Associates, Inc out there waiting for individuals to take their money and waste their time.

One star is more than generous for the service we received. AVOID Pabst, Kinney & Associates, Inc AT ALL COST.
