Mike Bary needed to involve a third party, Figure8 (who was lovely and did a fantastic job securing tenants and managing the property), to finally secure tenants. Mike Bary included a clause in the lease agreement that he would be owed 4% of the sale price if the tenants purchased the property, which they eventually did. We foolishly signed this contract giving 4% of the value of our home to Mike Bary for simply making an introduction to tenant. Our real estate attorney noted that he had never seen such a large commission for simply making an introduction to a buyer in his many years of practicing. We would never work with Mike Bary or The Agency in a real estate transaction in the future.

This review is specifically for Natasha Jesrani. I rented a 2-bd property from her for a 4-yr…read moreperiod and attempted to build a relationship based on mutual respect and good communication during the pandemic. For the majority of my time as a tenant, it went well. However, I ended up getting laid off and had to terminate my lease early, to move for a new job. We had a series of discussions based on unresolved issues related to outstanding repairs and lease terms. Natasha was unprofessional during this time, disrespectful and when she didn't get what she wanted at a given moment, resorted to personally insulting me. It seems Sundays are her free day, that's when you can expect to get nasty texts from her regarding issues that aren't currently in her favor. She doesn't seem to manage maintenance well, and besides keeping my security deposit without discussion, she persistently texted me for money weekly 2-3 months after my departure. What bothers me is I typically am a responsible tenant, not perfect by any means, even going above and beyond in areas: - Showing her property to prospective tenants - Meeting her in-person on a trip across the country to give her a duplicate key I made - Cleaning items I found dirty such as curtains and HVAC registers (when a mold problem arose for an end-of-life AC) - Small DIY tune-up such as door hinges .....and she was still incredibly disrespectful to me in moments when a situation wasn't in her favor. Steer clear.

In my experience this individual was a dishonest, rude, negligent, incompetent, pathological liar. During my transaction, Amy told us she was an accredited interior decorator to sell her alleged professional decorating services because as a pro decorator she gets Design Rates at the stores...all lies. She also tried to sell us insurance...told us she's a licensed insurance agent too?? We didn't go for that. Anyway, Amy took measurements wrong 4 times (in person and from a floor plan), and then misappropriated the money we paid her to buy furniture that didn't fit, used our money to fund her "other businesses" (She texted me this when I asked for a refund and she didn't have the money to pay back), wouldn't refund our balance, provide receipts, or delivery tracking. For 6 weeks. I fiiiiinally got our money back - but only after she admitted in text what she did and I told her I was going to the police to have her arrested for Misappropriation of funds, financial abuse, and go to the News, report her to Zillow, the DRE, the CAR, etc. I asked another party on our deal if he knew Amy Kahn was so unscrupulous and he called her boss Scott Goshorn. Only then did Amy start responding again after going radio silent. She finally Zelle'd my money back from different accounts over the course of the day. Amy Con also left the country with our keys and garage opener for 2 weeks, then finally sent some random guy in flip flops to return them. Yelled at me any time I asked for furniture receipts, our keys, our money or didn't respond at all. The vendors (inspector, alleged contractor, handyman) Amy referred were shoddy and unprofessional at best. She also FAILED to set a follow-up HVAC inspection per the original Inspection Report which could potentially trigger Errors and Omissions. Also, I have text message evidence to back up everything stated in this post so don't try me - unless you want me to post them. And in case you're wondering, the only reason I did not go to the police is because Amy Con finally returned our money she tried to steal although she has not paid client refund credits from purchases. She doesn't seem to grasp that is theft, and that Misappropriation of client funds is illegal. Filing a police report for that now. I still don't have any emails with the furniture order correspondence or receipts as promised several times. She becomes unhinged any time I request this information. This should be provided to a client as a matter of operation - it shouldn't even need to be requested, let alone several times over 6 weeks. She is a liar and a thief. This is not the conduct expected from a licensed real estate agent, especially from a known company like Rodeo Realty.

I had a deeply disappointing experience working with Peter Maurice, Zizi Pak, and Barnet Gold…read more During a property transaction, I was misled, and ultimately lost my deposit after contingencies were removed--despite serious discrepancies. I raised these concerns, but felt that these agents closed ranks rather than working in good faith to resolve the issue. In my opinion, this was not ethical representation. I strongly encourage buyers to proceed with caution or look for agents elsewhere in Beverly Hills who will prioritize transparency and client advocacy. This is my personal experience, and I'm sharing it so others can be informed.

I would not recommend working with Keith Adler based on my experience. Perhaps he has gained more…read moreexperience since then, but at the time, his negligence and attitude made the process unnecessarily difficult. While he presents himself as having 30-35 years of real estate experience, much of that appears to stem from flipping foreclosure homes rather than representing residential buyers. During the purchase, he was unable to provide the level of guidance or organization required, especially for a deal with a short escrow period. Some basic responsibilities, such as scheduling inspections, were left to me. He even left town during a critical window and only returned after I raised concerns. Toward the end, when questions arose about overlooked tasks, he became defensive rather than constructive and seemed unfamiliar with much of the standard paperwork. In hindsight, I likely should have ended the relationship sooner, but as a first-time buyer, I was advised to stay the course. I now see that decision led to more complications. He should not have been assigned to a time-sensitive transaction, and it's clear he needed more training and oversight from his brokerage, Rodeo Realty. Even after closing, issues persisted. For example, I had to retrieve my own keys from the listing agency. Ultimately, I handled many aspects of the process that should have been managed by my agent. This experience would have gone far more smoothly with someone more experienced or better supported.

The regional manager, Clinton Gibson, openly stated that long-term residents and people who have personal or family connections with management or on-site staff receive preferential treatment and are allowed to break building and city rules.

Problems are ignored, rules are not enforced equally, and tenants who speak up are pressured rather than supported. I would not recommend renting from this company.
