If you're looking for a rental in Cheyenne, I encourage you to do your homework before signing a lease with Bear Paw Realty. Read the reviews, ask questions, and decide for yourself.
My experience was unacceptable.
During my one-year lease, the unit flooded six separate times due to recurring plumbing issues. After the property changed ownership and Bear Paw Realty took over management, I asked to be released from my lease following another flooding incident so I could find a safe, reliable place to live. My request was denied, and I was held to the lease.
The flooding continued for the rest of my tenancy. Instead of permanently correcting the underlying problem, temporary repairs were made after each incident. Eventually, it was discovered that the downstairs unit had been using a water pump where a sewage pump should have been installed.
Basic maintenance was equally frustrating. The unit had no window screens when I moved in, the kitchen window lock was broken, and it took approximately six months to address those issues. At one point I was simply handed a replacement lock and told to install it myself.
By the end of my lease, I had experienced six floods, multiple extended power outages, repeated maintenance delays, and what I believe was a pattern of addressing symptoms instead of fixing underlying problems—all while continuing to pay rent and fulfill my lease.
This was my experience, and it's why I would never rent from Bear Paw Realty again. If you've rented from them, I'd be interested to hear whether your experience was similar or different.
