Buyers beware! Agent Gloria Mello did not disclose County issues with the property in Prundale that…read morewe were in escrow on. She was aware of issues per County code inspector for 5 months, and owners as well. We have hard proof that they all knew 1 month prior to escrow from a Notice sent to them by the County. These issues are misdemeanor offenses in the county and are inherited by property owners. These issues are large dollar items. We spent $2k in inspections and two months of our time for no reason due to non disclosure at the legally obligated time in escrow process. Also, because of issues no lender will even lend on this property until issues are fixed. FYI for all.

If I could give anyone an award for great service and efficientcy award, Tim should get it. He knows Real Estate like I know the back of my hand. He understood what we were seeking, always made time to fully answer our questions and was willing to go the Extra Mile for us. We were treated like adults with much respect unlike some in the professional business. He pressed hard to find us a fantastic house and helped us to get the best interest rate with a Fantastic Loan Officer named Victor. I am actually recommending Tim to family members that will be looking to get into the market in the future. I would not use anyone else. Thank You Tim Zoliack.

If you are a homeowner looking for a professional property management office, run the other way,…read morethey are TERRIBLE. Janet, who was in charge of renting out a property, showed up 25 minutes late to her own open house and offered no apologies. After filling out an application and paying for a credit check, we learned we were approved to rent (mind you, nobody called or emailed us to update our status, I had to pester the office to get an answer). Great, we were approved - however, we have a dog and mentioned this from the start. We offered rental insurance, a recommendation from our previous landlord and an increased pet deposit- she assured us that she would present this to the homeowner and call us ASAP. I don't know if she forgot, was too busy or just did not care - maybe she was busy wirh whatever held her up the day of the open house. We never received a response back. So I called, she assured me that she would let us know when she received a response. We waited a week, my husband called- and received the same response. A simple yes or no would due as to not waste our time. So here we are, weeks later with no follow up call. Super proffesional Oliver property Management! I'm extremely dissapointed with how this "business" handles clientele and manages their homeowner clients properties. Don't waste your time here.

Horrible customer service. I called regarding a property for rent. Trying to schedule a viewing and…read morethe receptionist assured me that that would not be possible. She directed me that they already had serval people interested and if I wanted a chance at the property, I needed to fill out an application. I asked if there were pictures of the inside since there was only one picture posted online and it was the outside of the complex. She said there were no photos of the inside. I'm not sure how this place is still in business? I would not rent here seems sketchy. How do you expect people to pay $ for the app fee without even seeing the place first. She was rude and I will not be renting here there loss.

I wish YELP gave the option for " zero stars" - Or even NEGATIVE stars!!!…read more Recently my husband and I looked at a home for sale in Watsonville. We are a gay couple, married, and have been together for 38 years. The realtor, Bill Cuccia seemed genuinely uncomfortable with us as we looked at the house - but we really didn't think much of it at the time. After a day (one of many) looking at homes we decided we wanted to discuss an offer on this property with Bill. I sent him multiple emails with the details of our offer and received absolutely NO RESPONSE. Come on - a realtor who doesn't respond to an offer? What could the reason be? Perhaps he is a bigoted, discriminating homophobe? We are extremely offended that this individual's non action effectively excludes us from the opportunity to purchase a property. It is in fact DISCRIMINATION. We will take our significant "2 income buying power" and keep looking for another property to add to our portfolio. But we will NEVER work with Berkshire Hathaway and suggest that others do the same. Hate and discrimination are not acceptable.

This has been the worst experience I've had moving into a house in Santa Cruz in my 24 years of…read moreliving in this town. Beware of this company, they do not take care of their tenants, or do their job, which in it's most basic form would be to make sure the house is ready to be moved into on the agreed upon move-in date. I feel like I've been fighting with property management since the day I moved in a month ago, and it will probably take another month of back and forth ridiculous communication before I get all the things I paid $11k for to be done before the agreed upon move-in date. Here is a list of things I've dealt with, I am leaving them here so that others know what to look out for. The entire house was filthy on move in day, had not been professional cleaned for a move-in. It still has not, over a month later, partially due to them not getting communication right with the cleaners they finally sent, partially due to me being busy and out of town and not having the time to deal with it. They did illegally send cleaners into my home without my permission while I was on a trip, and still not clean. The landlord had agreed to moved out a bunch of his old furniture to make space for my stuff, and half of what was agreed upon to get moved was still in the house on Nov 1st. I moved it to the deck, for him to come and get, then told property management to get a tarp to cover it, so it would not get rained on. They never took care of the tarp, so it did rain on the furniture, one night I had to dragged mattresses into the house by myself. I went out and bought a trap the next day and they are now refusing to reimburse me for the tarp. The house was advertised with a hot tub, and it is broken, come to find out it has not been turned on for 2 years, which PM did not know, but the landlord did know. They put in the lease, that if the hot tub breaks down while I'm here they would not replace, but that was based on the fact that it worked to begin with. Then they said they would take $50 off the rent for each month the hot tub is not working, and when it came time to deduct that from rent they said "that is only if we can't get the hot tub working at all." (They are currently trying to get it working - so fingers crossed the can deliver on something they promised up front). The hot tub cover that was left behind, and the condition was disgusting, they said it was ready to use, though it is covered in black mold, slugs, and water is soooo dirty. There has been a dead rat under the house with rat droppings for this entire first month, and the landlord has stuffed old boogie boards on top of it twice, despite my request to take away the boards, which are mostly garbage. They left several large pieces of furniture for me to "deal with" after saying the landlord would be happy to take anything away I did not want to keep. cupboard drawers broken, closet floors need a carpenter to fix random floor boards, shower drain clogged. I am not going to get detailed about everything that has been out of integrity, but I'll close by saying, if you do rent a house from this PM be sure to go there a few days before your move in date and make sure you are getting your moneys worth and that the place is actually ready to move into. I like the house and the location, and I'm a really easy going person and fantastic tenant - worked with Portola PM for 13 years, no issues - so it's really been unfortunate to have this completely unnecessary experience, because it's tainted my view of the house, and left me questioning keeping it. My hope is that I can get everything worked out in my second month here and stay. And hopefully get to a place where I can stop communicating with PM about the house, they have been frustrating and terrible communicators. We shall see.....
