Would like to praise Jack for all his hard work, he is honestly one of the best people I have rented from. He is very fast at replying and also answers on a weekend (give the man a break!). Any issues with property he is very quick and responsive, sorts the problem out within hours. A very caring man and passionate about his job (he needs a rise). Overall, I would highly recommend renting from Rent NE!
