There is so much I can say about this company and the landlord regarding getting the deposit back…read more There were false allegations of painting being done just before we moved in (we have pictures to prove otherwise), and charged ~$200 for it. We were overcharged for carpet cleaning by a "company" that was unnecessary as the carpet was fine, and a ridiculous attempt at a legal document of "if you sign this, you accept all charges" blah blah ON THE CHECK. Renter beware. It took me a solid 45 days to get the check back, despite the landlord being told ahead of time we had no forwarding address and multiple attempts to have the check sent (taking money from the deposit to pay for it) to me. Very unreasonable and unaccommodating, though they were simple requests, as the law requires. And there were multiple attempts to persuade me to remove this review in exchange for expedited deposit return. Shady business practices all around. The landlord had the audacity to say they were returning the check (minus the fees I paid for) out of "the kindness" of their heart.

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!

Alex and his team are one of the top resources for people looking into buying their first home…read more The differentiating factor that someone should consider VCCD as their first resource when considering pursuing the purchase of a home is their empathetic approach to your individual situation. He is extremely knowledgeable and does not beat around the bush to try to secure a lead. They don't work off referrals or make you feel that if they can't help you, that you are wasting his time. From the moment I explained to him our financial situation , he immediately crunched some numbers and offered what my options were based on my current financial situation. I highly recommend this team as they let you explain your situation without interrupting you and thus makes you feel that they are truly looking out to find the best way to go about in qualifying for your home ! Thank you Alex !

Still finding pure incompetence and I have lived here for 4 months. Her handymen are all incompetent grifters. Read my other review for the details.

I've purchased two homes with Angie now, and I've been amazed at her knowledge, professionalism,…read moreand generosity. There were multiple offers on each home. I believe it was her relationships with the other agents that facilitated the sellers into accepting my offers. She answered every text, call, and email immediately and went above and beyond for the buyer and the seller! Plus, her inside knowledge of the area and clear communication style made challenging situations easy. If I listed the number of ways she went above and beyond you'd be reading for days. Honestly, she made it seem so easy, even when it wasn't. Her partners Randy and Ann were also incredible. For Camarillo purchases, you won't find a better agent.

Our community recently switched to this management company, and unfortunately it's been a…read morefrustrating experience from the very beginning. They sent residents a link to set up an online account, but the registration key they provided didn't work. When I tried to get help, the phone number on the paperwork was useless, and I ended up having to search Google just to find a way to contact someone. To make matters worse, I've been requesting a green waste bin for over a month and still have not received a resolution. I've called multiple times, but each call has gone to voicemail, and none of my voicemails have been returned. I've also submitted multiple inquiries through the resident portal, but the only responses I've received have been generic messages saying they would "look into it," with no actual follow-up or progress. Waiting over a month for such a simple request is completely unreasonable. In the meantime, yard waste has continued to pile up, creating a potential fire hazard and possibly attracting pests. Communication has been consistently poor, and getting even basic issues resolved has been unnecessarily difficult. First impressions matter, and this transition has not inspired confidence. I sincerely hope they improve their responsiveness and customer service because the experience so far has been extremely disappointing.

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.
