We employed Barlow Realty for the sale of our Leisure Village condo. ALL of the Barlow Family we…read moreworked with were knowledgable, helpful, professional, and friendly. McKay suggested some quick, practical, and economical improvements be made to the property and oversaw the project for us. The property sold quickly and for more than we expected. Their knowledge of the Leisure Village Association rules and regs was beyond helpful. We wish had known about them when we purchased years ago because they really know the local market. Our experience was positive and seamless. We would use them again and recommend them highly.

I was with Barlow Property Management (BPM) for 14 months. I rented in Leisure Village (LV) and…read morewhen I moved out, I found someone to take over my lease so Dan Klein did not miss a payment. I paid the entire month of Feb. and moved our on Feb. 14th. The new tenant, by law, could not move in until March 1, 2025 but she moved in on Feb. 28 as witnessed by the neighbors. In addition, Dan Klein, the owner, was to pay LV change of tenancy fees of $80. Dan Klein and McKay with BPM charged me both the $80 and for the last day of Feb. even though the new tenant moved in on that day. This is all illegal. Nothing new for both McKay at BPM and Dan Klein. They are horrible and will charge you for things that are not even legal to charge you for. NEVER RENT FROM BPM!

Melissa Hunter is the best real estate agent in Ventura County. It's that simple. If you want a…read morehouse in the area that is well suited for you, there's no other option. Melissa was the main reason we got our amazing house, and I don't think we would be living here without her. She made us feel like her only client, and kept us calm during every step of the convoluted and intimidating process of buying our first house. Melissa first stood out on getting back to us after reaching out on Yelp looking for realtors. It was easy to tell right away that she gets things done, which is absolutely essential in the cut throat and competitive real estate market in Ventura County at the moment. Melissa also took the time to get to know us to truly find a place right for us. On our first house tour, she had a very specific plan in mind to show us potential matches in different locations spread out around the area. It was mostly a fact finding mission, and it just showed how Melissa already cared about us and making sure we're happy in any potential place that we find. Good homes in our price range aren't readily available in this market, so we thought it would take awhile. We found our house in only nine toured houses all thanks to Melissa. We live about an hour and a half away from Ventura County, so it's not always easy to come out and see a home when it pops up, and speed is essential in this market. Melissa went the next day and took a video of the place to help us decide, and we submitted an offer just based on the video. Melissa helped us with the offer, and was absolutely essential as we countered three different times until it was our house. Melissa is very knowledgable about the market and the processes and kept us fully up to date on the other offers, and provided advice on how to make our offer the best possible for acceptance for each counter stage. Getting your offer accepted is extremely challenging, and that was only the beginning of this process. The 30 day escrow period is filled with landmines and potholes that Melissa helped us navigate expertly. We were thrown a ton of curve balls during the process, especially on the loan side of things, and Melissa was always there to chat, offer advice, and help as much as possible from the realtor side of things. We ended up not being able to close until 11 days after the original closing date because of the delay on the loan, but Melissa kept us at ease and on track with open negotiations with the seller so they didn't worry. We hit every disclosure date in plenty of time with Melissa in control, and even with all of the stresses, Melissa was always a calming influence. To show just how amazing Melissa is, her care for us didn't end when we got the keys. We had some issues pop up after move in related to our warranty coverage, and Melissa has been right there to help us file claims and stay on top of different service technicians. Melissa couldn't have done better in this whole process, as well as her partner Jason (who we never met, but he was always on top of all the backend processes, timing, and documentation). If you want a home in Ventura County, Melissa Hunter and Jason Walters are the only choice.

We have had a very negative experience with this management company and would not recommend them…read more Throughout our tenancy, we experienced ongoing maintenance issues that were never properly resolved--most notably the dishwasher, which never worked correctly despite repeated repair requests. The issue was acknowledged but consistently ignored or addressed with temporary, ineffective fixes. The most troubling issue has been the billing and invoicing upon our departure. Unfortunately, my father is very ill, and we needed to move out of the residence as soon as possible to be with him. After 10 years as residents--with repeated requests for carpet updates, virtually no repairs completed, and zero tenant issues--we believed the outcome would be more amicable. Charges, as shown in the attached documentation, appeared to change after the fact, and attempts to obtain itemized breakdowns were met with vague responses or no response at all. This felt highly unprofessional and, frankly, raised serious concerns about the accuracy and legitimacy of their billing practices. At move-out, we were charged $1,200 for "cleaning," which is completely unreasonable. After 10 years, yes, some light bulbs burned out; however, we replaced them. The unit was left in excellent condition and was professionally cleaned. The attached preliminary statement provides no detail or itemized explanation to justify these amounts. Requests for specifics were never received. Overall, this company demonstrates a lack of transparency, poor communication, and disregard for tenant concerns. Between unresolved maintenance problems and unexplained financial charges, dealing with them has been frustrating and stressful. I strongly advise others to proceed with caution and document everything if you choose to rent through them.
