Coming from someone who works in property management, this is an extremely unprofessional company. I made an appointment to see an apartment last summer and was told the day before that I would need to call Mark an hour before to confirm. I told them I would be there unless I told them otherwise. Turns out it was Mark who was late to the showing. The current tenant (who worked for Mark) as well as Mark reiterated that the rent price could be negotiated. Once our application was processed, I asked about a slightly lower month... read more

For anyone looking to rent an apartment near Temple's campus you can't beat the service you will receive from this company. My daughter is currently renting a unit on 17th street and I have been very happy with this company from the day we signed the lease. They will respond to all requests in a timely manner and are always professional. Do not hesitate to use this company for Temple rentals unlike rentcampus which I will never use again and would caution anyone else who is stupid enough to trust those agents who are very de... read more

We rented with Mark Gamba from A n S for 2 years. We found them prompt with concerns and reasonable in their requests. Specifically Mark always returned my messages within a day or two and addressed our issues quickly. They did not push to raise our rent when the lease turned over and all advertisements about the property were accurate. I would recommend their management company to anyone.

Abbolone & Scullin Realty does BAD business. I looked at a house in South Philly with realtor Mark Gamba. Liking the property, I expressed my interest and he led me to believe that it was a done deal. I turned in everything requested, followed-up and two days before move-in his secretary calls to say that 'other applicants' have already submitted a deposit. This is after I offered an advance deposit days prior. Clearly, Mr. Gamba and his company have only interest in getting their commission money, not their clients' best in... read more

When I signed my lease I was going through the Real Estate company called Volpe then in January my property got switched over to Abbolone and Scullin. I can honestly say this was such a great switch! I am pretty good at getting everything in on time but there has been an occasion that I was late. I called them and admitted to fault and its was not a problem. Any time I have issues with maintenance everything is handled in a very timely fashion, I realize that they do not have control to fix anything and have to get permissio... read more

Great experience! – I rented from these guys for about a year and a half. I got all my security deposit back and had generally no major issue with their company. The only thing that stands out was when I locked myself out of my apartment on a weekend. I called the emergency number and the realtor met me at his office half an hour later. They're nice and friendly, I would definitely rent from them again!

Fair and Friendly Landlord – As a happy tenant with Abbolone & Scullin, I find it upsetting that there were all of these negative reviews above. I've had 4 different landlords/management companies in Philly, and I found A&S to be by far the best. Unlike all of the other management companies in Philly, Mark and the rest of the group at A&S made me feel like I was actually a customer. They treated me like I was worth something and that my business was important to them. This is in COMPLETE contrast to all of the other companie... read more

Bad – This was the worst renting experience. Terribly unresponsive to service requests, not responsible for various repairs, showed the apartment at all hours. My advice, go for another rental company.

I never write reviews but I felt obligated to warn future renters after the severe distress, frustration, and financial losses that I've experienced with Abbolone & Scullin Realty. The entire staff is unprofessional and rude. The apartment that was "sold" to us was inaccurately promoted as a new finished rehab with central ac. Upon move-in the apartment was not finished, most appliances weren’t installed, and there was no central ac. Furthermore, the walls were only primed and never painted. My first few weeks in the apartme... read more
