They are young, hungry, know the area, care about their clients, and damn efficient. Any time we've had an issue they were on it quickly and handled beautifully. When you don't live in the area (we are in Nashville), you need the peace of mind that a company such as Emerald Coast gives you. They are also less, percentage-wise, than others we interviewed. They do not take on more properties than they can handle, which is also important. I cannot say enough good things about them! Thanks, Stevie and Amber!

If I could give zero stars I would immediately. Let me start…read morethis review off by saying you should absolutely not trust this awful sneaky company. Over the summer my husband and I signed a lease for a home that was "move in ready" when we needed it to be. We then paid all of the fees and drove our family across the country to our new home. We had spoken with Lakin about our move in time and date and she said everything was perfect. The evening we told her we would arrive we had not heard anything from lakin about how we would access the home considering she never told us when we could pick up the key. We pull up to our "home" very late in the day to discover someone fully still living in the home we had paid for. We then start calling and texting lakin and no answer.. until we threatened to get the police involved and she answered super quickly. She then claimed she had no idea what was going on and the people in the home must've been squatters and she now has to file a police report. She continues to offer us other properties that are "ready tonight" as if we would ever trust anything this woman has to say again. Weeks and weeks go by waiting for our money to be returned to us since we had to find a whole new home to live in. (We drove across the country with our 2 children and dog and had nowhere to go) Fast forward 6 months later we got a call from a debt collector saying we owe up to 10k in "missed rent" payments on a home we never even stepped foot into. Thanks to Spence properties we were able to find a home perfect for our family and they worked very quickly knowing our situation. Point of this review is to PLEASE not do business with these people. They obviously have no care for their tenants

We are a military family that owned a home in Crestview, FL. We reached out to Assurance Realty for…read moreProperty Management shortly after we moved. I can't even begin to put into words how absolutely phenomenal they were! We worked with Kim specifically as our property manager and she was so great. We really liked how their process was set up. If there were any concerns with the property, Kim told us immediately. We ended up moving overseas for 3.5 years and during that time frame, we switched tenants. I can't imagine dealing with all of that while being overseas. We experienced minor tornado damage to the property and Kim was on top of it. She was always open and honest. She kept things fair for both us as the owners, as well as our tenants. We fully trusted Kim and never once had to worry about anything. It was such a huge load off to know we had that! She really was such a blessing. We decided to sell the property in 2021 and got teamed up with Donna. Donna was just as incredible as Kim from the very beginning to the very end. She made the entire selling process super easy. She was open and honest about our options and walked us through every step and answered every question we had. We live out of state and knowing we had someone we could trust to take care of selling the property was a relief. From our end, the selling process was easy. We know that's because Donna is such a phenomenal agent and took care of the heavy load of things on her end. In the eight years that we worked with Assurance Realty, whether on the Property Management side or the Real Estate side, we knew we could trust them completely. Honesty, integrity, and professionalism are important. Assurance Realty of NWFL, LLC goes above and beyond for their clients. I simply cannot say enough good things about them.

Pipes leaked, burst, the fence was dilapidated on one side, there was a big problem with mold on the ceilings, etc. We found a brand new house, just built, and decided to jump at the opportunity to buy it because we knew it would go fast. We told them, and understood that we'd be responsible for the property until they rented it out and we wouldn't get our deposit back. That's fine, we have plenty of money. Eventually we were told on the phone and over email that they'd "try to get the deposit back to us". Neato. We weren't expecting that since it says we'd forfeit it in the lease agreement. No big deal if not. But cool nonetheless. I scrubbed the baseboards, tiles, and bleached the daylights out of any mold I could find and made the house as pristine as possible without doing any power washing. Understanding that'd come out of the deposit. Was told in person, on the phone and over email. (Which I still have from March 27th, 2017.) to not worry about the carpet at all, whatsoever. They had a pipe burst which ruined a bunch of it, and it needed to be replaced anyway. So. That's awesome. I didn't worry about getting it cleaned, I just vacuumed and made the house look as nice as possible, sans steam cleaned carpet. We get a certified letter stating that the house was dirty and used up all of the deposit to fix it. Okay, I knew this was going to happen. However, among the accusations, they said we did not replace the drip pans on the oven, which stuck out to me the most. Because funnily enough, I still have the receipt and pictures of them being all brand new and sparkly installed on the stove. We took 94 pictures when we left, and since we were accused of not cleaning the house enough we sent those photos as proof, contradicting what was said in the letter. We got an immediate "uhhh, we'll get back to you" response. We were given an email that just stated how they felt entitled to the deposit. That's fine, I can only imagine you need the money to pay your workers. We weren't expecting it anyway. However, because of the lies and what I perceive to be shady business practices and poorly kempt properties, I'm of the opinion this company deserves one star. I'm very relieved to be in my own beautiful house now, and will never have to deal with these people again.
