I read the one star reviews and laughed. You can definitely tell who is entitled and who isn't…read more Knowledge is valuable and sure, you could go online and get as much free information as possible. That's what we did/were doing. We were online trying to educate ourselves on how to get it done correctly. We didn't no any one successfully doing it, we didn't know any one doing it period. We had no background in real estate investing and were trying to soak up as much knowledge off YouTube or google as possible. Obviously, getting just enough knowledge to understand the concept but we lacked the confidence to apply it because we don't have the systems in place to run a business sufficiently and successfully cuz we're not doing this to fail. My husband signed us up for the free work shop and I was immediately interested in attending the 3 day workshop because I figured they were gonna give us some great knowledge at that weekend workshop, which they did! But once they offered to provide all the systems necessary to operate and perform as your own functional business, that's what really got me hyped. They built this machine, a vehicle of a business that they can teach me to drive and how to use and operate and I can use this business as a vehicle to get to places I've never been in my financial journey. I hope that was a good analogy cuz for the people that rated this business 1 star, it seems to me that you didn't get it, you didn't understand what they said they could do for you becuz not once did they say that they were gonna turn me into an over night success story and that I would magically become rich and wealthy and yada yada. They said they would teach me how to use their systems and and that if I applied them exactly the way they instructed, that they would work! That is it, that is all, they promised nothing more, nothing less. That is not a scam. That is open and honest. That is basically saying, "YOU HAVE TO WORK FOR IT BUT ITLL BE EASIER IF YOU DO IT OUR WAY" and the 1 star people have a problem with learning; they don't want do it. Didn't mean to make it personal, It just really twists my chichis when folks call me a sucker for believing something that clearly works. That's like saying I wasted my money franchising a McDonald's...

I joined FortuneBuilders years ago and was told I needed to form a Nevada LLC for rental property…read moreprotection. I trusted their guidance, paid the annual fees for years, and only recently learned my property was never actually placed in the LLC. That means the structure they pushed offered zero protection and cost me hundreds a year for no reason. They never helped with the deed, never clarified mortgage restrictions, and never explained that an out-of-state LLC does nothing for a Tennessee property unless the title is actually transferred. I've now had to untangle everything and fix it myself. Do not trust this company, they are truly a scam.

Thank You Joy C. Kane After managing a small rental house…read moreremotely myself for many years I tried a gazillion property management companies with complete disgust. Initially skeptical of Penny Realty, finally the property was assigned to Joy Kane. I've been "joyfully" (couldn't resist) blown away with her quick efficient problem resolution skills, a well qualified tenant, a higher rent, and a nicer property. My fingers are still crossed. If anyone can uncross them it's Joy. I wish I had her help starting about 10 years ago. My hair would be less gray and my bank account a bit higher. Thank you Joy C. Kane with Penny Realty. Please continue to be so incredibly diligent and effective. You bailed me out of a big problem and did it efficiently and diplomatically. Thank you.

They were always available to answer questions, kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I knew what to expect throughout the process.

She kept everything organized behind the scenes, was always responsive and helpful, and made sure nothing slipped through the cracks. I have no doubt that her attention to detail played a big part in helping us close on time. Thank you to Lori, Alexa and Jesse in making this process feel smooth and manageable!

Found a home for rent on Craig's List. Made an appointmentt to view the beautiful Victorian home…read morein National City California. Mr. Robert "Bob" Nourani (realtor) was showing the property as a favor for his friend Alex Ahmadian (owner). Out of several people viewing the home chose me, my son and roommate who would be sharing the home and paying rent. Moving day was on December 18th 2015 . The home was not clean. We had to clean the entire home both interior and exterior of the home. Both the owner and realtor are bothered when asked to repair items in home. I don't know why I was asked to pay so much deposit for a home that we the tenants have had to clean and done repairs ourselves. We (tenants) were accused of wanting everything new in the home, we only want workable appliances and don't want to beheld accountable for damage to the house that was there prior to us moving in. To top it off, I was never told that the home was for sale and now the realtor and owner want to enter the home for whenever they want to show it to potential buyers. This is wrong and an invasion of privacy for us. I was tricked into renting the home. I have denied them access to the home and was threatened to vacate the property in 30 days. I have rights. We're not even finished unpacking and they want to bring random strangers into my home. Why rent the property if they were planning to sell it? Logically, I wouldn't have moved into the home if I'd known it was being sold. Very bad business, shady and untrustworthy.

Realty Source is the HORRIFIC!!! One of the worst real estate deal I have ever encountered. I used…read moreJIM MICKELSON in 2016 to purchase a condo in Imperial Beach. He lied to me from day one. There was an illegal conversion done to one of the bedrooms, but forgot to mention this to me. This was a big deal as the square footage that was represented was not the actual square footage. JIM MICKELSON was well aware of this, as he had recently sold another unit, with same floor plan just a few months earlier. When I was having second thoughts about purchasing the place, he started hammering me, telling me there were other people lined up to purchase the place. He also was telling me about other places down the street and how he knew what those places would sell for. I do not know how anyone would know what something will sell for, unless they have a crystal ball. This is also highly unethical. JIM MICKELSON LIED TO ME ABOUT THE SQUARE FOOTAGE AND ABOUT SO MANY OTHER THINGS, such as the financial situation on the HOA... Once in escrow, when I was feeling uneasy, he started telling me about another condo down the street that sold for double of my condo. Well, this condo was nothing like my condo. Finally, when I was on the hook, he disappeared. I could rarely reach him, and when I needed to go do inspections, he could not be bothered and sent his daughter, HELENA MICKELSON, who is also a realtor at Realty Source. She was a joke. She always showed up with her son, and knew nothing about the place and could not answer one single question. I might as well been handed the key and looked at the place myself. After I closed escrow, I called the Realty Source office and could NEVER get anyone to answer the phone. This is not a legitimate real estate office. After leaving several voicemails for the lead broker, SCOTT ENGLE, I finally talked to him several times about what could be done about his highly unethical realtor. Guess what he did? NOTHING....He also was difficult to reach and I had to hunt him down at time. Realty Source is horrible...do yourself a favor and run if you hear the words Realty Source.

Jackie, the owner, runs this family business with such integrity, professionalism, and care -- it really shows in every interaction. They handle everything thoughtfully, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. Communication is clear, follow-ups are timely, and I always feel supported and confident that things are being managed properly. It's rare to find a management company that is both highly professional and genuinely caring, but Alta Vista is exactly that. I've worked with two other management companies in the past 13 years for La Jolla property , so I have a strong basis for comparison, and that experience is precisely why I can say I highly recommend Alta Vista. The difference in quality, organization, and overall experience has been night and day. If you're looking for a reliable, professional, and truly hands-on management company, Alta Vista is an excellent choice.
