Tribe Management Inc

Tribe management has taken over many affordable and not so nice properties in Victoria lately, paint the outside to some kind of post-modern and then increase prices to abhorrent levels. We are taking what was 1300/month is now 2650/month over night and this is including properties that are exclusively for seniors making what was accessible and affordable something that cannot be attained. Scaring many of our seniors who are on the brink of joining their recently reno-victed friends. They are unresponsive and do not much else to improve these buildings and spaces. Tribe management is greedy corporate and everything that’s wrong with the rental market now. I would recommend before paying the prices Tribe is asking to live in one of their buildings, do your research because the same dollars will get you into a nice, clean and modern suite. Shame on you Tribe.

Have had Tribe Management for close to a year at our buildings. We had strata fees collected twice one month, emails go unanswered, if they are answered the line is it’ll be looked into but never is. Totally impossible to convince the company to arrange maintenance or repairs. I’ve asked multiple times to get a joiner put on an irrigation system that’s broken, an electrical faceplate installed over exposed electrical, and a plastic storage bin replaced. All of which have been broken for months. If you want to live in a building where the property management company refuses to have anything repaired or maintained, then check out Tribe Management.

My local building manager was awesome. However, when dealing with head office...Extremely difficult to communicate with. It is an ongoing battle to get paid money they owe me. I would NOT recommend.

This company is garbage!!! They have outright lied to me in regards to an outstanding invoice submitted to them 5 weeks ago. It is absolutely impossible to ever speak in person to any member of the 'Tribe team'. They seem to think that invoices to be paid come out of their pocket when in fact it is the approved Strata's money. If you are dealing with Tribe....run away!!!! They also made no movement on my invoice until they found out that my attorney will step in!!!! That I have to give Tribe a 1 star rating in order to post this is revolting at best!!!!

If you see Tribe Management name on the building, run far away in the other direction. If anything breaks it will never get fixed. Been waiting over 2 years to get my bath tub fixed, patio was supposed to be finished by 11 Nov and still hasn't been looked at, now been without a bathroom sink over a week, brown slusge water comes up into the sink and constant pools of water on the floor. Still no answer on repairs.

I would give zero stars but in order to give a review I must give one. I went to take out my garbage and accidentally forgot my keys. I cannot access my floor without my fob and all I needed was to get to my floor. Someone in the building let me call from their phone Tribe 24 hour services phone number. When I called the representative and explained over half a dozen times that I needed to get to my floor she said it’s not an emergency and I had to wait until Monday to speak to someone leaving me homeless overnight in a neighbourhood like Hastings alone with no wallet, keys, or phone. She could of been a little more understanding how worried I was. She told me people call all of the time for being locked out and it’s not an emergency. She said a fire is an emergency. I’m sorry what is 911 for again? Zero help and very rude.

Had a problem with someone smoking on our floor. Tribe Management was slow to answer the claim and now our hallway smells like an ashtray even though it is a non-smoking building. Instead of having the hallway cleaned, they told us to wait" until the smell dissipated. Cigarette smoke hangs around so thanks a lot Tribe. You can rebrand your company to a slightly inappropriate new name but you cannot rebrand incompetence

Update to the review below....Make that 4 months, and STILL no refund cheque for our damage deposit. Renters beware!.........After putting up with Tribe's terrible management while living at one of their apartments in Victoria, we are now trying to get our damage deposit back. Now, three months later, still no cheque and just excuses from their office why we haven't received this $$.We put up with a lot of nonsense from them so this is not surprising. Left our apartment clean and undamaged and this is how they treat you in return. Will now have to contact the government for assistance to get this $$ owed to us.The one star ratings here ARE on the up and up". They deserve every one of them."

After a series of failures by Tribe, our new strata has terminated their contract.In yet another blunder in late October, Tribe sent our strata owners the minutes of another strata’s SGM to terminate Tribe’s contract.As noted earlier, you need to give one star to leave a review as zero stars would more appropriate.
